Starter replacement how to.
Does anyone have experience replacing a starter on a CL600? I crawled under the car for a while tonight trying to figure out how to go about it. Wanted to get tips from anyone who's done it before.
Thanks.

Is yours an NA or TT?
The latter is more difficult.
Are you sure it's a starter problem? It could be a battery strap or the earth strap. Make sure they're properly bonded first.

I presume your car is left hand drive? That makes it a bit more difficult.
You will need to remove the left hand down pipes / cats, and probably the steering column from the rack (not from the bulkhead).
I would probably support the engine and lower the subframe to provide more access.
