[QUOTE="Peter Good, post: 592471, member: 13547"] In days past I worked for several of the big names in starter motors. Our stats showed over 60% of old VW Air-cooled starters that had 'failed' were perfectly OK except that they had run with a worn bush. That bush is very sensitive to wear; wear that is not easily visible to the eye. Don't take chances; change the bush first and foremost, and especially if you are fitting a new / recon starter as your guarantee will be void unless you change it. And yes, it is dead easy to tell.
