Impreza 2005 WRX 2L starter motor failure.

My starter motor has just packed up and Subaru have quoted me £720 + fitting. Can anyone recommend where I can buy a decent starter motor for less?

Contact ICP or IMG direct. Alternatively here http://www.startermotor-alternator-store.co.uk/sub... and/or here for a lightweight high output unit http://www.powerlite-units.com/products/rac201/.

Your Subaru dealer really is taking the proverbial. Subaru starters are bog-standard off the shelf Denso/Denso type units.

That's great. Many thanks. I did think their price was somewhat OTT.
