Hi, what’s the best change of starter these days, best deal for a new one, or refurb of old one? 1150 Gs, last changed about 6 years ago, started making horrible grindy noises since it came back out the shed. Tia.
Starter change
- Thread starter Mullgs
- Start date
I bought one off eBay for just under £60. Obviously not original BMW parts at that price but new and works perfectly well. Yours might just need a clean up/refurbishment. I’m sure there are posts on here how to do it. In fact here you go, and detailed strip down instructions at post 4.
Another vote for EBay-less than £60 and delivered the next day. I've just replaced mine on an 1100gs due to 2 magnets becoming detached. Not worth messing about.

100% positive feedback for this. I have it also already for 100.000 km ride and still working fine.

How about just servicing your existing starter? Only takes about an hour if you do it properly. Or have you tried this already?
