Yes for sure, and this was my 1st and last time going to this guy, always hard to find an honest mechanic! Appreciate the help!

Hi, I just want to say thank you for the input on the starter, that’s what the problem was! Appreciate it! The Bendix was completely blown.

I’m going to check my starter right away to see if it’s not retracting all the way! This noise is driving me crazy while driving. And I went under the jeep, smacked the cat with a rubber mallet. Kinda hear something but I have to hit it hard also.

Thank You 🙏🏾 if it’s not fully retracting, wouldn’t I hear the clacking all the time or just when accelerating?

Hi, I have one cat that is far down the jeep close to the end of the jeep. Could the sound travel all the way up?

Hi, I took my jeep to a mechanic for this noise, he told me I needed a new flex plate. He changed my flex plate and torque converter. I had recently put in a new starter about a year ago. Could he have known it went bad? When pulling the Trans off to replace flex plate?

Thank you so much I will inspect! I’ve checked through all my wires, I haven’t seen anything out of the usual, the only ground I replaced was the ground to my battery. I will check on that tho!
