I had a quick search but couldn't find a similar problem.
The other half's 500L starter motor spins on the key but every now and then doesn't engage. Stop/start is off and the spin isn't lazy. It had a new battery recently as the old one died in the cold snap earlier in the year.
I'm used to the old bendix throw in starters and just want to know if this is the same on the 500L and how easy is it to remove the starter motor.
Any guidance/hints appreciated
