Replaced mine with a Duralast and worked wonders I even made a youtube video on it.
Its a pretty simple swap. Everything can be done from above no need to jack the car up, takes maybe 30 minutes to swap.
Get a bosch starter from amazon, any starter you get from a parts store is going to be shit quality. Bosch, or one direct from gm are the only good ones.
I installed the starter, which was apparently the upgrade and Bosch has since reverted back to the "old style" with the support dowel. Everything starting-wise is working great
Stick with Bosch if possible, get the autostick (SR17X) starter and eliminate bushing issues.
I got an Autozone Duralast one for my 09 LX and 2 yrs later after a lot of starts its still going strong.
I changed the starter motor for a Bosch starter in April 24 but after a few months the issue came back.
As preventive maintenance I replaced my starter with a new remanufactured starter by Bosch, part number SR0822X. Wouldn't start after I moved it from the wash bay to vacuum the inside. I heard a click and that was it. The starter didn't try to turn the engine at all.
Assuming the diagnosis is correct , My advise is to replace with an OEM STARTER. I have had many issues with autozone starters and alternators (duralast brand…I call it duraNOTlast from my experience), I have done many; and have redone many. You will never get the service time from a autozone starter that you have from the OEM starter.
I just had a similar issue with my 2015. I changed the starter with a duralast part from autozone, still didn't work. Ended up biting the bullet and taking the car to Ford. They explained to me that a genuine ford part was needed as the starter is part of the security system.
