Second problem, I changed starter motor in February 2023, since then twice I had to push start the car, any possible reason why starter motor keeps on failing?

Hi,

The plug you need will be hard to get new. I would recommend going to a salvage yard to find one.

As far as the starter motor, are you getting new ones or are they remanufactured? Also, are you getting them from a parts store and not online? I ask because I've been seeing a lot of problems with online purchases and remanufactured ones.

Let me know. If you are always getting the same brand, you may want to consider trying something different.

Let me know.
