Is there much difference between the standard one and a higher torque one, like the one you have?

Is it new?

Mine is longer than the standard one by about half as much again. Needed to get the high compression of a diesel lump going on a cold morning. Its not new, done about 100k miles.

Should fit seeing as the diesel fly wheel is now on my G40 and I have a standard starter working that ;D

Will check its still where I left it and get pics, but £35 posted if all good.

I'm curious as to what anyone wants a high-torque starter for?  Be careful you're not going to over load either the battery or the battery to starter wiring.
