Another day another head scratcher...
DMF fitted
Rebuilt gearbox in..
starter adapter in checked both ways up only fits one of them.
starter VW Valeo not the number on B/W site but assured by starter specialist that supplied it that it was compatible despite having 11 teeth??
Start van.... horrible screeching from starter and obvious resistance it does start the van but is mullering the teeth on the DMF?
I can't see that I've done anything wrong but there is obviously a compatability problem between the B/W DMF the milled aluminium adapter and the starter.
Is it that the DMF is a different size or depth than the SF version or that only the serials listed on B/W will function correctly?
Anyone else been here...?
Apologies for the never ending stream of calls for help!

Re: AFN Tdi DMF starter adapter.... horrible noise from starter?
Following some top advice from regular contributors I very gingerly took a finger sander to the end of my starter motor and removed the freshly scored aluminium now starts perfectly and raring to go!
Thanks to all!
