Engine/Power - non turbo (All non turbo Imprezas) Who needs a turbo when you have 2500cc? Cams, intakes, exhausts, etc. The 2.2L and 1.8L Subies are cool too.

Starter lifespan and breakdown?

Question Starter lifespan and breakdown?

Hello all,

2003 2.5 obs with 91k miles.

My starter has been acting up lately. Hard start and spinning b noise after it turns over.

Is she ready to be replaced?

What needs to be considered when swapping?

Also would you recommend a starter from the dealer? If not, where should I swoop?

Thanks in advance!
Chris
