Pictured below we have a BMW 3 series estate.

This vehicle was a non-starter meaning the engine would not start. Why? The starter motor had become faulty. We replaced the starter motor, and the engine is turning over and the vehicle is back in motion.

Starter motors can become faulty in many ways. Symptoms you have a starter motor fault is the engine will constantly turn over without starting, you could be hearing large clicking sounds when trying to start the vehicle, or you will hear significant whining noises coming from the engine.

Starter motor faults are also very common in the colder winter months. This is a sign you need to get the starter motor checked and diagnosed in the winter.

Lastly another sign you have a starter motor fault is your battery runs flat. Meaning you need to jump start the vehicle. So, when you have a flat battery the starter motor may have drained all the power from the battery.
