I have a question to ask you guys.

Sometimes, rarely, but sometimes in the mornings when i'm starting my s2k my car makes the sound like when your starting a regular car with a key and you hold the key too long. Or another example, after your car is started and you turn the key and the started makes a grinding sound. well since its a push button I dont know how I could be messing that up.

Has anyone else had this problem, is it just ignition timing? help would be appreciated. Thanks

Daniel

 

i have that too! I tried explaining it another way, but i dont think anyone knew what i was talking about, can anyone help us out?

 

Are you holding the start button in too long? That will cause the same sound.

 

i have the same problem sometimes, the sound comes after you let go of the button

 

glad im not alone on this. but like he said, it happens even if you just tap the button. Long after you realease the button it still happens. not all the time, but just randomly

 

Sounds like the bendix in your starter might be sticking or staying engaged. Not sure how the S2000 starter is made, but seems to be either selenoid, or bendix sticking.

 

maybe not hold the button as long?

 

i have this too. someone said it was the starter sticking, and not disengaging...causing the noise.

you would have to fix the starter...don't know how, but in my thread someone suggested a way to fix it..

i'm just going to live with it.
