Great video, I just completed the job for 162.00 and 2 hours of my time. Thank you
this one's gonna take a manual i think… My issue, the noise when I start car… seems maybe it's this… someone has a toyota with a "noise" video that sounds like my issue… my issue is more of a grind, than any of that belt "squeak or chirp". How many things are needed to unplug, unscrew, undo from this starter?… is it 4?… 2 bolts, solenoid thing, and "b cap" or whatever you call that?
Why didn't you replace the 2 copper contacts inside the solonoid housing. …you could have saved yourself $200.
Thanks for the video it saved me a lot money I bought a used starter out of eBay And it cost me 45 dollars my garage guy wanted 400 dollars.
You saved me a ton of time! Thank you for putting out this video. I would have never figured out that the bolts holding in the starter are arranged in opposing directions. The one on top the bolt faces toward the driver's side of the car, and the one on the bottom face the passenger's side of the car. You are the man!
I'd like to add my thanks for your taking the time and effort to post this excellent video. I'm about to undertake the same starter replacement on my 2010 Corolla. You've done a huge service to the owners of this model Toyota!
I want to take the time and thank you for saving me hundreds of dollars for saving a trip to the overpriced mechanic. you sir are a respectable individual. to you it's just a YouTube video, but to us it's far more than that.
Thank you for the video, very helpful!
Thank you for this great how to video.
I had easily changed a starter once before on an old 1967 Chevy pick up, but I was intimidated to replace the starter on my 2010 Corolla until I watched your video.
Everything went smoothly except for some reason I could not get the transmission dipstick tube to pull out, even after unbolting the mount completely. I was able to turn the dipstick tube slightly but it would not pop out. So I VERY CAREFULLY bent the tube forward about a half an inch towards the radiator, which allowed me just enough room to get my U-joint type flexible socket in there to remove the top starter bolt.
Again thank you very much, I'll put that $500 I saved towards other bills.
THANK YOU for saving me approximately five hundred dollars, that I did not have to give away to the Toyota dealership.
They wanted over $600 to replace the starter in my 2010 Corolla. When I ask them to break down the cost of their estimate they said $400 for their genuine Toyota starter (that they would have to special-order no less) and $200 labor. I said no thank you and told them I was already quoted $129 for a lifetime warranty starter from Advanced Auto Parts that was in stock) and I'll figure out how to put it in myself.
I didn't tell them via "University of YouTube". Thanks again for your video!
Thanks so much for this. I was struggling to get that top bolt out until I watched your video. SPOT ON!!! Thank you
… What about an 81 rolla….? D:
Hey original mechanic great upload. What were some of the symptoms that led you to know that the starter in this Corolla was going bad? Mine makes a grinding noise sometimes when I start it up. I have a 2011 Corolla.
Fantastic! I used this video today to replace the starter in my 2010 Corolla S 1.8. Your video was spot on. Thanks!
I wish mine was there…. Mine is a 1994 Corolla 1.8L and that thing was in a tight spot behind the motor near the firewall.
