Examine the starter ring gear for broken or chipped teeth; if any are evident, the flywheel must be replaced with a new one. For manual transmission versions, check for scoring on the clutch friction face; light scoring may be dressed out using emery cloth, but deep scoring necessitates replacing the flywheel to prevent clutch damage. In automatic transmission models, inspect the converter securing bolt holes for elongation. If the starter ring gear is worn or the mounting bolt holes are elongated, replace the complete driveplate.
