Every time you start your vehicle, the starter motor works with the battery to crank the engine and begin the combustion process. A dependable starter helps provide consistent starting performance throughout the life of your vehicle. Modern INFINITI of Winston-Salem carries genuine INFINITI starters engineered for your model.

What Does a Starter Do?

The starter motor temporarily engages the engine's flywheel, rotating the crankshaft until the engine starts running on its own. Once the engine is running, the starter automatically disengages.

Common Reasons Starters Wear Out

Frequent start cycles, normal electrical wear, internal component fatigue, and exposure to engine heat all contribute to gradual starter wear over time.

Signs Your Starter Needs Attention

Clicking noises, slow cranking, intermittent starting issues, or a complete failure to crank the engine may indicate that the starter should be inspected.

Find the Right Starter

Whether you drive an INFINITI Q50 or an INFINITI QX55, genuine INFINITI starters are designed for proper compatibility. While servicing your starting system, it's also worth inspecting related alternators and batteries.

Frequently Asked Questions

How can I tell if my starter is failing?

Common symptoms include slow engine cranking, clicking noises, or the engine failing to crank when you attempt to start it.

Can a bad battery cause similar symptoms?

Yes. Weak batteries and failing starters often produce similar starting problems, so both components should be tested.

Should I replace the starter proactively?

Starters are typically replaced when they begin showing signs of wear or fail diagnostic testing rather than at a scheduled mileage interval.
