I had problems with the solenoid sticking plus the starter quickly pulled the battery down. I had to trickle charge it constantly to be sure it was fully charged when I tried to start the car. I nearly bought a new battery before I realised it was the starter that was the problem. I bought a gear-reduction starter and it's brilliant - now problems starting after weeks of not being charged. It spins the engine faster so hot starts are way easier. They draw almost half the current of the original unit. They do sound a little different. A recommended upgrade from here.
