Hi all

I have got my starter motor off my 200TDi, and no matter what I do I can't get the solenoid to actuate or the starter to turn. Given it a +ve from my jump pack and nothing! I've cleaned it up best I can too. So, i'm going to take it to a refurb place near work.

Trouble is, I can't get there without the landy running! All the local factors either don't stock them (2 days wait) or they are unrealistically expensive - scrap yards closed, of course!

So, anyone in the midlands got a spare starter I can have? Beer tokens waiting of course.

You can get a new one from Paddocks for about £80 plus VAT, delivered free, but obviously not this weekend!

Therein lies the problem. Meant to be going in holiday in it on Thursday.

Depending how far away you are, Rockingham Motors might deliver one to you same day! (No, I don't have any links to them, it's just that my local club (ENLROC) all use them and give them the big 'thumbs-up').
