Genuine Subaru Starters

The starter in a Subaru, like in most vehicles, is an electric motor connected to the engine's flywheel. When you turn the ignition key or press the start button, an electrical current is sent to the starter solenoid. The solenoid acts as a switch, engaging the starter motor's gears with the flywheel. As the motor spins, it cranks the engine, allowing it to start running.

When to Replace Your Subaru Starter

There are several parts that make up the starter system, including the starter motor, solenoid, and wiring. Over time, these parts can fail or wear out, leading to starter problems. Here are some symptoms that indicate it may be time to replace your Subaru starter:

• Engine cranking issues
• Frequent need for jump-starts
• Grinding or whining noises
• Intermittent starting issues

If you notice any of these signs, it is recommended to inspect your vehicle. Replacing a Subaru starter typically involves removing the old starter and installing a new one. The process may vary depending on the model and year of your Subaru, so you will want to consult your owner's manual.
