Well, my car has never flooded but I have strings of very long starts.. 10-12 seconds and then starting.. I just figure if the new starter eliminates more of the potential for flooding then I'd like it.

I got the new starter, and it worked like that for me for a while, but now I am getting hard starts again. For some reason, they only replaced my starter and plugs, but not the battery.

heh i dont know what all this starter business is about - i bought my 05 last october late in the year.... and mine has always started up within 1-2 seconds of turning the key.
I'm assuming I have the "new" starter because ive never had a problem with hesitation starting or even cold shutdows (ive made a few slip ups with that since ownership)

I could use the new starter... but I don't think I need to ask for anything right now. My car has had a rough week... well, year... Hell, it's had a rough life. Poor thing.
