A friend is having a starter issue with a 2015 V6 Mustang. (3.5L ?).

Intermittent issue, typically when cold starting in the AM.

..Car will Start normally, but starter keeps trying to engage, making pretty bad noise.

I have not yet witnessed the issue first hand since it seems to happen infrequently.

My first guess is that its the starter solenoid sticking or going bad. Any other perspective on this before we swap out the starter?

Also what's the best option for a new starter motor on a 3.5?

I sure hope the 3.5L starter is not as much of a PITA as on my 04 Cobra..

Sorry for the bad info.. Its actually a 2012 Mustang with a 3.7L motor, auto..

Car has ~200k miles, so its out of warranty.
