Hiya

Parked up my 1993 16v Coupe (ACE Engine) up indoors 9 years ago and its not been started in 7+ years. No surprise it won't turn over now. Suspect starter motor gone. Battery fully charged, dash lighting up, getting 12v at solenoid. Cleaned battery earth contacts and inspected relay. Changed ignition barrel around 2 years before parked up so don't think its that. No clicking at starter.

Any advice on how to swap out starter ? Real difficult to get at. Did my A4 B7 recently which was a challenge but doable for a DIY'er like myself and didn't need to remove many other parts.

Also - does anyone know the Haynes Manual for this car ? Read on a US Forum that the Audi 100 / A6 Haynes covers ACE but don't want to buy as doesn't seem right??. This was only reference I could find as regards a manual for this car.

Want to get it back on road - rarely see a Coupe round these parts....

Thanks in advance
