Have a 1.4 2003 diesel Polo. Starter motor has recently been struggling to turn initially, but then got up to speed. However it finally would do nothing yesterday-not even a click. Solenoid appears to be fine and cabling seems to be in tact.
Took the old starter motor off - no life when we put a battery on it so went and got a replacement from the scrapyard. Put it all back together but still nothing. not turning or evening offering to. So a bit stumped. Could it be a relay or something that's stopping nice getting though? You can her fuel pump activating so not that either. Metered the battery and that's OK too - new last year and still holding 12.6V.
Any help welcome.
