benessex89 Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 How long should they last? Just that car wouldnt start, put a new battery in and aa think its the starter. The car had the dmf changed at 110k, on the paperwork for the job no starter was fitted with it, now on 166k so hoping the dmf hasnt caused the starter to go. The aa bloke said anywhere near my mileage its done well. My car had the original factory battery as well before changing this morning so it done well, car is 03 plate. About to take it to a garage and will probably write the car off if the dmf has gone, but its been driving lovely so hopefully not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexp999 Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Will depend how often you used it too. I imagine taxis get through start motors... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benessex89 Posted March 24, 2015 Author Share Posted March 24, 2015 Had it since august 2013 and at least 5 times a week, so 10 starts at least a week. Just got back and garage said the starter is gone but dmf is ok, £150 fitted, could of been worse lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
