Lifespan of a Starter Motor:

Typically, a starter motor can last anywhere from 100,000 to 150,000 miles. However, this can vary depending on driving habits and environmental conditions e.g., hot weather, rough terrain.
Harsh Driving Conditions: If your Hilux frequently drives in stop-and-go traffic, towing, o r off-road, the starter motor may wear out faster due to higher stress.

How long did your Hilux’s starter last before needing replacement? It’s helpful to know if it lasted the full lifespan o r if premature failure occurred due to extreme conditions.
