There were some posts here awhile back about these new cheap starters. Claims of plastic gears were presented that would break or wear prematurely rendering them useless far earlier than better more expensive units. I personally went for the OEM Valeo starter at 3 times that cost just for peace of mind as the original had last 2 decades plus, but was so destroyed it was a toss up for rebuild vs replacement. I choose to replace as everything would be new not just the replacement parts.
