thanks alot mate I feel alot better now knowing what is wrong with my car, Thought maybe it was a bearing inside the engine or something. Worst feeling when theres something wrong with your car and you have no idea what it is especially when it could turn out to be costly. Well im ordering the startermotor today and ill let you know how it goes after I install it. thanks

ok took starter motor off tested it on the bench and guess what its the start motor making the horrible sound. We sprayed some crc spray onto the gear and the sound did stop. But the internals do look abit tired so we are going to repace it with a new one.
thankyou

Told ya. Post #4 ftw! :p

Bet it was a massive weight off your chest when the starter made the noise on the bench and you knew it wasn't something more serious.

Yeah, CRC would mask the issue for a short time... but it will come back so you may aswell do it properly now and know you're sweet for the next 100,000km :p
