Car Fix DIY Videos

►No matter what car you own, not just the Porsche 996, the starter motor will need to be replaced at some point in its life. The starter motor is used to start your car’s engine, using a small gear that engages with your flywheel. Over time, that gear can become worn, or the motor can wear out, which will either not allow your car to start or make some apparent sounds of failure.

Rather than wait for your starter to completely fail, replace it before it leaves you stranded. In this DIY, Michael Hidalgo demonstrates how to replace a Porsche 996 911 starter motor. The job is fairly involved, so follow along in this step-by-step process to turn this into a simple job you can do at home in your garage.
