If you own a Mitsubishi L200 from between 2006 and 2015, you might have encountered issues with the starter motor. Drawing from 15 years as a master tech mechanic, I've seen numerous cases where this crucial component begins to falter, affecting the vehicle's reliability. Let's dive into what typically goes wrong, why it happens, and how it's usually fixed.
The starter motor is vital for igniting the engine, and when there's a fault, the first symptom is usually an engine that either won't start or struggles to start. You might hear a clicking noise when turning the ignition key, or observe that the engine turns over slowly – these are telltale signs of a starter issue.
Why does this happen? In many cases, the problem stems from electrical issues such as a weak battery or poor wiring connections. Sometimes, the starter motor itself might be worn out, especially if the Mitsubishi L200 has high mileage. The starter gear could also be damaged or there might be a problem with the solenoid.
Repairing a starter motor generally involves testing the battery, checking and replacing wires if necessary, and ultimately, replacing the starter motor itself if it proves to be defective. This process can vary in complexity and cost, depending on the extent of damage and labor required.
While repairing a Mitsubishi L200 (2006 to 2015) starter motor is definitely possible, is it always worth the cost and effort? It's worth considering the age of the vehicle and the potential for other mechanical issues down the road. Have you ever asked yourself whether maintaining an older van is the best long-term decision?
Sometimes, selling your vehicle and perhaps upgrading to a newer one might be more economical and less stressful. This is where Vandervan can help.

It makes it tougher to sell to our network of 4000+ verified dealers, as we have to wait for the DVLA to process a V62 application (usually 6 weeks), so our valuations reflect the delay in sale and storage costs while rectifying missing V5 logbooks.
