Default New Starter Installed

Just wanted to once again, thank this forum for being a wealth of knowledge/history regarding our vehicles. I have a 2000 RX300, and the starter was acting up. Did a little research here to insure how tough the job would be(not at all!).

It took my buddy and I 38 minutes from start to finish for this job. And that include a beverage break.!

It really could not have gone any easier.

Thanks again, Club Lexus.

Why did you buy a new one? Chances are 9 out of 10 that the problem was the contacts, which cost maybe $10 and can be replaced in 10 minutes.
