⚙️ Why Your Car Makes That Grinding Sound 😬 This starter motor is trying to engage a worn-out flywheel ring gear. Over thousands of engine starts, the sharp metal teeth get rounded off from constant impact. Instead of locking together smoothly, the gears clash like two saw blades hitting each other. That high-pitched grinding sound? It’s metal being shaved off in real time. Without sharp teeth to grip, the starter just spins uselessly — and the engine never turns over. Small gear damage. Big starting problem. ⚙️🔥

@pierre40197 Had a Ford Explorer one time that had a bad flywheel. I had to replace starters on that damn thing at least twice a month went through about 13 starters before I finally got rid of the fucking truck besides that fly wheel problem she was a damn good fucking truck.
