72735757 MAHLE Starter motor

This thing’s job is pretty simple, actually. It takes electrical energy from your battery and turns it into mechanical energy. That mechanical energy spins the engine’s crankshaft, getting everything moving so the engine can fire up and run on its own. Once the engine is running, the starter disengages—it’s not meant to keep running with the engine. It's a short burst of power, really. Think of it as the muscle that gets the whole process started—literally. Without it, pressing the ignition key just won't do anything. It's a core part of the engine starting system, along with the battery, ignition switch, and solenoid. It’s usually mounted pretty close to the engine, so it can physically turn the flywheel. Well, without a good starter, you're not going anywhere. It's one of those things you really only think about when it fails. You'll notice if it’s going bad because you’ll hear a clicking sound when you try to start the car, or it might make a grinding noise. Sometimes it just won't turn the engine over at all. It’s a pretty critical component, and a failing starter can leave you stranded. A new one can make a big difference. We carry a good selection at Fixparts Online, if you want to take a look, and they’re generally a pretty straightforward replacement for a DIY mechanic. It acts like a shield against the initial resistance of a cold engine, providing that extra oomph to get things going. Worry-free driving: Starter Motor (MPN MS129) is backed by a 12-month warranty!
