I replaced my old iron starter in my 84 GTI with the mk4 starter and what a difference (both spinning and weight!
My problem (from 2+ years ago) turned oiut to be a bad starter. The solenoid must have gone south. A new starter motor fixed it.

Well I began taking apart the car and removing the starter and found that a part of it was bent. I'm not sure if that's the solenoid or what it's called but I'm pretty sure it's the reason the car wouldn't start.
My starter was making a grinding noise, I saw the you tube vids, maybe If it was summer and a I had a 2nd car but nope , paid a shop, new starter no more grinding and lots of one key turn starts!
I just replaced my starter as it was going out, never fully dead. Upon start the engine would take a couple times to turn over.
I just replaced mine at 148k. Slow to crank for a while then would not engage 1 out of 10 starts or so. Spins right up now.
My 2015 EX has had 2 starter replacements since new... If the electrics work, aka the blower, exterior lights, power windows, audio and internal lights are working OK, but the engine only clicks and will not turn over, its probably the starter.
I had to replace the starter in my 2015 at only 75k miles. Highway miles at that. It was not a cheap starter either.
Honda's starter for the Fit sucks donkey butt. These starters are expensive items. Thats great, but the starter in the Fit, specifically the 2015 year model EX trim seems to be trash.
