Starter motor OEM FORD or Duralast
After every diagnostic I could think of I got a Duralast reman starter from Auzotone and the engine cranked right over first try so looks like a defective reman was the problem. Lesson learned that you can’t always trust bench testing to find issues.
Pros: engine cranked right over
Cons: defective reman
On my gen1, when mine was going out I replaced with the s2 starter from autozone "Duralast Starter 19407". Have had no issues since.
Pros: no issues
Vehicle:
Mazda
Part number: 19407
I’ve always trusted Autozone with parts and so far haven’t had any issues so I’d recommend duralast. I used two duralast starters before and they’ve worked fine.
Pros: worked fine
I got a starter from AutoZone (Duralast - remanufactured from Mexico) and installed it myself. Anyway, I got it free, took careful note as to where all the wires were supposed to go and then set about installing the other starter.
Pros: installed it myself
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
They're brittle, they do break

Vehicle:

Cons: suck, break, brittle when old
Vehicle:

Since installing #19590, I’ve been hearing a slight grinding noise on startup — sometimes it sounds worse than other times, but definitely not right.
Cons: slight grinding noise
Vehicle:
Acura TLX
Part number: 19590
Replaced starter motor and battery within 30,000 miles in my 2015 F150
Cons: replaced starter, battery
Vehicle:

Mileage: 30000 km
I got a replacement Duralast 17341 for a Hyundai Accent 2011 GL, and it was grinding like crazy. Really worried me.
Pros: replacement part
Cons: grinding, defective
Vehicle:
Hyundai Accent
Part number: 17341
My experience with Duralast starters have been horrible. They sell them with a 'lifetime guarantee', which means that every time they fail once a year or so, you have the pleasure of crawling under the car and switching it out for another one that is going to eventually fail!
Pros: lifetime guarantee
Cons: fails once a year
