Hey

So my 206 occasionally won't start . It has power , radio , windows etc. What I think is the starter is sticking because as soon as I roll it a bit I can bump it off. Does it sound like my starter motor? Is it an easy job.


Cheers

The bit that move the starter motor onto the Flywheel,

The starter can spin but won't engage unless the solenoid move its over.

A service / exchange starter motor is the smart way forward Wink

Avoid Halfords for starter motors etc, even a Peugeot main dealer is cheaper then Halfords Wink

Local motor factor will be able to get you one Wink
