hope for a bad earth
expect a hydraulic'ed cylinder.
Just got the starter motor back from the Auto Leccie and have been informed that it's in perfect condition.
I have full battery power but there doesn't seem to be enough juice to turn the starter motor over- Almost like the engine doesn't want to turn over. I don;t think that is the case because on occasions this happens but after a while it will decide to turn over a fire up. has been doing this before and after timming belt change.
It's not totally dead but feels like it does half a turn then no more.
tried charging battery and jumper cables to another vehicle.
It's a 1996 Tdi300 Automatic Disco
What could be the problem????
Cheers

If you've benefited from one or more of my posts please remember, your taxes paid for my skill sets, I'm just trying to make sure you get your monies worth.
If you think you're in front on the deal, pay it forwards.
what is a hydraulic cylinder and where is it located?
Expensive?
Cheers
it means you have liquid on top of one of the cylinders.
when the starter goes to turn it over it cant.
yep its likely to be expensive.

can you turn the motor over by hand..........CAREFULLY........
will it turn......or is it seized........
My bet is the trigger wire on the starter motor is loose/dirty!!!
Mate the small wire that slides on is the one to clean and ensure its tight.A bad contact here will not let the starter solenoid engage as it should,ESPECIALLY IN HOT CONDITIONS!!!
Goodluck

Have you connected the Eth Cable for starter , without that the starter won't turn the motor. ask me how I know ....![]()
I'll give that a go tomorrow when i re-install it. Hopefully it is the case.
If this was the problem (bad connection) would make any attempt to turn the starter motor. Because when I do go to start it, it does have a very small attempt to turn but suddenly won't.
Cheers for the advice...
Hey mate,
I haven;t tryed turning it over by hand yet! I might give it a go if it doesn;t start after i tighten all contacts when i re-install it tomorrow..
What and how is the best way to over the motor by hand? Keeping in mind it is an Auto.
Cheers
Christian
Ahhh I see now...
Really hope that isn;t the problem!!
Where would i go from here if that is the case.
