Snap = my starter is doing exactly the same startup shriek @100,000km. It first started about 3 years ago but only on a couple of occasions but its suddenly reared its noisy head again last week.
Because its quite a convoluted job to remove, clean, grease and reinstall, I opted to buy a rebuilt Bosch unit from Pelican and have it shipped out to Australia.
The last thing I need is to spend 3-4 hours (hopefully) repairing the starter only to have it go out again - it was 36 deg. C in my garage today with even hotter weather forecast this weekend....
