I am having A LOT of trouble out of my starter. When I turn the key It doesn't even try and turn the engine on at all. Do I need to get a new starter or what? Anyone that can help please do so.

Thank you,
Derek

 

When you try turning it on, do you hear a big "click" and it does nothing else? You basically do that like 5 or 6 times and then it starts?

If so, you need a new starter or at least, new starter contacts. Ours are bad They are unfortunately expensive too.

 

yeh that's what it does, how is expensive are they?

 

Depends. Some shops can rebuild it/fix it. Acura dealerships probably charge a few hundred.

 

I have one that I'd sell you for a good price. I can also get it rebuilt in less than a week for 110.

 

i had the same problem when i first got my TL. It cost me $250 for the starter. Fortunately, I had a buddy that was able to install it for me otherwise it would have cost me another $200.

 

I'll sell you mine for $50. I can also get it rebuilt for another $110 by the guy that rebuilt mine. I'll cost you around 110-120 to get it installed, fyi.

 

i have that problem too had the starter changed but it seems that the shity alarm that came with the car is ethier turning on the kill switch or kill all the battery power....

 

could be ur ignition switch which fortunatly for 97 and up TL's is under a recall
