This is for the Tracker. Probably its just the solenoid as there's just a small single click when I turn the key, no movement or other noise. Battery is good.
But in case its the starter, which brands are good and which to avoid?
There is AC Delco and Denso remans available, OE from the dealer is $350 which I'm almost tempted to get, but its a week away. I've had two NAPA cheapie ones in there and they lasted just under 2 years each probably only around 2000 starts or less... Very consistently made to bad standards?
The original one only went 7 years as well, so it seems this vehicle is hard on them for some reason as we don't do alot of mall hopping/short tripping at all.
Hand cranking is starting to look appealing! Bump starting is fine but a bit of a pain to find a hill to park on all the time.
