This is my daily driver and I have driven it twice today without a problem. So here is the problem:

Engine does not turn over; but I hear the starter solenoid click click click, etc..


I plugged in the shops jumper box and turned it up to 200 amp (this shoulda done the trick eh?) but it just turns over sooooooooooo slow no way!! Somethings messed up here. How can I troubleshoot this any help is greatly appreciated



thank you

system voltage is at 12.6 so the batter and solenoid are good I assume. But why would the starter work when I applied more amps?? I guess I will have to pull the starter today

ok 1990 535i, damn starter went out how do i get this bolt out

how do I get this top bolt out of the starter/bellhousing
I removed the coolant expansion tank as per bentley but I cannot get an open end wrench down to sit on it right.
