The starters are a common fault on them.They just bolt on to the side of the gear box at the front.

when you tern the key the starter engages with the fly wheel and ternes the engine over when you bump start it its the momentom of the car that is terning the engine over the same prinsible applies to boath ci and si engines

the dual mass flywheel wears out which fill's the starter with shit, take the starter motor off and clean it out if it's full, done it a few times on different car's, works fine

can get solid flywheel and clutch kits from the factors for 200 quid now.

I hate changeing starters/clutches on mondeos. Either no room to whip the starter off or subframe down for the clutch
