Starter Servicing

Postby firepipe » January 27th, 2022, 5:41 pm

Hello my friends, I have a Toyota Hiace 2000 model, the starter is making a grating sound occasionally while starting. I’m not sure what’s causing it. Is there someone in the Central area who services starters?

From experience, the grating sound is the starter not disengaging immediately after start, usually worn bushings or springs within the starter cause this since the starter doesnt back off the ring gear on starting.

If the grating sound is before the engine starts, then the internal bearings on the starter are likely bad

In terms of fixing, any electrician worth their weight should be able to strip and rebuild a starter.
