Thread: starter motor trouble

in the last 12 months i have had to replace my starter motor 4 times.
each time i've been told here's been water ingress and therefore not covered by a guarantee.
the last repacement was a month ago and today it's gone again - however this time there's no possibity of water ingress as it's not even rained since i'v had the new one installed.
it goes by simply starting the car - sounds like a flat battery (i have tripple batteries) and then refuses any further action.
off on a tilt truck to get fixed and sooner or later it all happens again.
can't find any similar storey with any one else on either forum AM MOST DISSALOUSINED can't take it off road incase it happenes again

ANY HELP PLEASE

Doesn't sound right. Is it the starter motor, or actually a low battery. I think you need more data on what is happening, and evidence of repair if the starter motor is in fact at fault. If it happens again, I would grab a multimeter as a first step, and check the charge of the batteries.
