They sell these puller deals, but I think that's overkill unless you know you have a ton of rust or something.

Thanks, will do that before pulling the motor in round 4 tonight lol. Its coming apart, was pleased to find the guibo is available seperately even though Porsche make you buy the complete propshaft to get the guibo. Mine looks fine though and zero rust there so think I just need to get a bit more aggro with it! thanks again bud

My car is a manual the starter is giving a short pause before starting if I stall out backing in to my garage otherwise it starts normally. (Steep driveway don't laugh).
Not sure if this is normal or designed to protect the starter.
