so I have an 1986 535i e28 (automatic)
177k miles
I'm having trouble with starting the car SOMETIMES.
I have loud wrenching noise every once in a while (every 15 starts or so).
turns over and runs fine USUALLY, but every blue moon loud wrenching sound happens and doesn't crank.
Upon happening it drains my battery instantly, thus forcing me to jump car with cables (huge pain if i am out and it happens randomly)
thanks in advance! i need advice on how to go about this before i make purchases!
due to research i'm guessing it might be:
flywheel?
ring gear worn out?
starter?
Which parts should I buy for long lasting results since my e28 is my daily driver?
