• Reman Bosch Starter- No need for bushing? by Jetta90GL on 23 Feb, 2008 10:16
• Hello,
  
  I have a 90 Jetta diesel, with a starter that grinds and does not engage.  I ordered a remanufactured bosch starter that I just got today.  I'm a little worried that they sent me the wrong starter, but it could be an updated version..  The model is a Bosch SR34X, but it is missing any sort of shaft that  rides in the bushing.  It just has a metal cap on the end of the gear.  The box  did come with a new bushing.  Sorry for the pics, they are from a picture phone.
  
  
  
  Any thoughts on what this is?

• i've been seeing more and more of that style of bosch starters. just slap it in, no need to worry about changing the starter bushing.
