3.2.1
Removing and installing starter, manual
gearbox
Renewing starter on vehicles with start/stop system:
Due to the higher requirements on the starter when the start/stop
system is activated, e.g. in urban traffic/driving, the deep-cycle
resistance has been increased and the ring gear reinforced.
When renewing starter, make sure the new one with the correct
part designation as shown in ⇒ Electronic parts catalogue (ETKA)
is used. Components adapted to start/stop system are not iden‐
tified separately and are not or barely different from normal com‐
ponents in their appearance.
Special tools and workshop equipment required
