riversider Posted July 1, 2007 Report Posted July 1, 2007 hello i have a 98 2litre galaxy when i turn the ignition the car starts but sometimes (normally 8 out of ten times) a funny noise follows, as sort of whirring sound, as though you have not stopped turning the key,sorry about the vague description maybe it is a common thing and someone knows about such a thing,cheers.

big_kev Posted July 2, 2007 Report Posted July 2, 2007 Possible starter motor problem.........still running after disengaging ? Quote
riversider Posted July 3, 2007 Author Report Posted July 3, 2007 yes the engine is still running after disengaging, like i said its not every time but no doubt something will go when i am in the middle of nowhere. Quote
seatkid Posted July 3, 2007 Report Posted July 3, 2007 starter, sticking, bendix, hammer......why do those words sound familiar? :lol: Quote
riversider Posted July 7, 2007 Author Report Posted July 7, 2007 so i guess its probably the starter motor,are their any websites that will show me where the starter motor is and are they easy to clean up and put back in? cheers. Quote
jsr4 Posted July 8, 2007 Report Posted July 8, 2007 I came across this which might be of use: http://forums.tdiclub.com/showthread.php?p=844411 Not for Galaxy etc, but shows the general idea re cleaning. Quote
El Dingo Posted July 8, 2007 Report Posted July 8, 2007 starter, sticking, bendix, hammer......why do those words sound familiar? :D They are the names of your four maiden aunts, who write romatic novels in their spare time? Quote
