What is the part number on your starter now?

 

So has anyone has purchased the starters from autozone or advance? Feedback please

 

i dont know but it a 2005 auto matic with 43k mile on it
but my can dont even start here the videohttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qg0t9puPfus

 

In the first part of your vid, the starter isn't even engaging the flex plate. The second part sounds really weak. I'd say replace it.

 

Go to 1:22, this is the autozone starter

ohh wow thank that work fine love ur video man help alot

 

Well that answer my question. Thanks buying one now lol

 

Also how much you paid for?

 

well here is the receipt
-19407 Duralast Starter - 97.99 (I have a 6spd)
- Core Charge - 54.00
- Shipping - free (ordered online, shipped to my house)
Subtotal - 151.99
Tax - 13.30
Total - 165.29

After I changed it, I put the old one back in the box, brought it to AZ with the receipt and got my core charge money back ($54.00). So overall I only spent Right over $100. Not bad at all in my book.

it could be cheaper if you have reward points or get it at places like AAP that almost always have some kind of coupon.

Not a bad price, but could be better. Just sayin'

 

I was only one point away from a $20 discount lol
I later used it for oil

 

dam i just call autozone and they out of stock ahaha n i have to check on monday if there a restock for it ahha

 

did you ever get it? I just order mine. Should be here monday

 

pardon my ignorance, but what is the core charge of 50$ for? I may be in the need of a new starter and this looks like a good option.

 

^ It's an incentive to you to bring your old part back for overhaul and resale as you get the core charge back when the return of the core (or part you are replacing).

 

Yep so you return the old starter toautozone and get $54 back.

 

Im actually going to install it in a few hours.

 

ok got it installed. But since I took out the battery Im getting some warning lights. dsc off blinking and dont remember the other one. Will this go away or do I have to reset something?
