Does anyone know where the starter motor is on an ep3?

Perhaps me being naive but I thought Chris meant that you had access to it from the bay and there was no need to go under the car

No, I'm being silly. :lol:
Isn't it to the left as you look in the bay, sort of underneath the intake manifold?

Naive-ness FTW :lol:
1.Make sure you have the anti-theft code for the radio, then write down the frequencies for the radio's preset buttons.
2.Disconnect the battery negative cable, then disconnect the positive cable.
3.Disconnect the knock sensor connector.
4.Remove the bolt (A) securing the harness bracket, then remove the intake manifold brackets (B).
5.Disconnect the starter cable (A) from the B terminal on the solenoid, then disconnect the BLK/WHT wire (B) from the S terminal.
6.Remove the two bolts holding the starter, then remove the starter.
7.Install the starter in the reverse order of removal. Make sure the crimped side of the ring terminal (A) is facing out.
8.Connect the battery positive cable and negative cable to the battery.
9.Enter the anti-theft code for the radio, then enter the customer's radio station presets.
by the sounds of it you don't need to remove the manifold, just the manifold brackets
to see the starter motor on the engine or the pictures on the screen?

Thats a rather nice little illustration 'griffin831'. Where'd you get that from?
