The solenoid on my 5L Griff starter is playing up i think. As it comes off the starter I assume i can replace it on its own but a quick search on the bosch part no (0 331 303 006 508) does't yield much useful info

Does anyone know where i can get one ?

thanks

Try a vehicle auto electric outfit as most of these recon rotating electrics,think i might be inclined to order a motor brush set and a good clean up to,would ask how much they want to carry out this work as it may be not worth getting your hands dirty.

0 331 303 006 508 isn't a Bosch number.

0 331 303 006 is a good number and relates to a starter solenoid

0 331 303 508 is also a good number and also relates to a starter solenoid.

Which one is it? For genuine Bosch, first is around £25 plus delivery to a UK address. Second is about £30 plus delivery. For new non-genuine, a bit less ££s.
