I've done it both ways. It's MUCH easier removing from underneath the car. The only trick is removing the top long bolt that you can't see. * From underneath feel for the long 14mm bolt. Slide on a regular 14mm socket with a wobbly extension ( universal joint ) attached. Angle the wobbly upwards towards the power steering pump. Now from the top of the engine you can see your wobbly through the intake manifold. Use a long extension ( or 2 or 3 put together ) & insert it in just to the lower right of the P.S. pump. poke it into your wobbly.

Thanks, you just gave me the balls to do it myself. I fix most all of my own car issues but this had me scared due to the TB/Intake Manifold etc removal. I now see it is doable. I'll prob have to remove or loosen the radiator support due to the OEM brackets and stock manifold but this made me confident I'll figure it out. Beats spending $800 on a mechanic doing it, I'd have to wait years to repair it with how broke I am. But I can swing $98 bucks for the starter.

For future people wanting to replace starter. If you have a aftermarket intake manifold you can get the starter off with without removing intake manifold. Just take off your throttle body and you can get to the top bolt on starter. Its not easy but possible. Go under the car for bottom bolt. Its alot less work and mess.

Yes you are totally right! I just did it to show the complete process. But you could very well just remove the TB, its a bit tougher but not impossible

Was good info in this video to get you started on replacing your starter. Some things you need to consider for those who have a stock setup. 1. This was a bitch of a job to take on just to replace a starter (maybe also for the alternator) on a RSX (type s for me). 2. There are two bracket bolts to remove below that support the manifold. 3. There are some other things to remove such as throttle cables, fuel injector harness on the fuel rail, and other hoses orientated about the manifold/throttle body. 4. Most of all, on a stock setup, the second from the upper left mounting bolt of the manifold was actually a nut to remove from a stud like the one that was second from the upper right side. This was the bitch of the procedure because it required removing that stud in order to clear the manifold for removal because the passenger side motor mount bracket (that holds the power steering pump, alternator, etc) is in the way (some evil engineering in design). As you see, the OP has replaced the mounting stud with a mounting bolt. With that, good luck on doing this job. It was no wonder this job would cost between $730-$980 to get this done professionally.

@@israelmunozpedraza6021 I ended up doing some research and its most likely the starter needs replaced. Its probably not retracting fast enough and grinding off the flywheel. I'm kinda upset now because I just had it at the shop to have my timing chain replaced, I wish I would have known then so they could have done it when the engine was out of the car.
