I'm having some trouble with starting the disco 300tdi. the starter (a re con replacement) packed up the other week. it was the 3 gear cogs that just disintergrated. I've since got a second hand 'Bosch' from a scrapyard. the thing is it only just turns over the engine and drains the battery within seconds. about 10/12 secs on continues starting. it also fells very hot. understandable. I've checked/changed the brusher's, solenoid and motor part but with no difference. could it be something else. it never drained the battery this quick or felt as if something was restricting it. Help.
i may replacing the motor with a early model 300tdi. where should i look for one and where could i get it reconditioned. Thx Ian
p.s it has ECU, think this may be something to do with it. how would i know if its knacked.
