Just a quick video showing how easy it is to change the starter on a 2005 Toyota Matrix. Save yourself some money and change the starter motor yourself. This would be the same for the Toyota Corolla and the Pontiac Vibe and any other vehicles that have the 1ZZ-FE engine.
This vehicle wouldn't start even though the battery was fully charged and was sending power to the starter. After tapping on the old starter with a hammer, it did start just fine. It was just time for a new one after all these years and over 300k miles.
Tools Needed:
10mm socket and/or wrench
12mm socket and/or wrench
14mm sockets (shallow and deep) and/or wrench
3" extension, 6" extension
Long handle breaker bar and/or long handle ratchet
Small screwdriver or trim prying tool
(You may also need a 13mm wrench and/or socket if you get a 13mm nut with your replacement starter).
The torque specs that I found online for the main starter mounting bolts are 27 ft. lbs.
Thanks for watching!

Thank you make this video amigo,a mechanic wanted to charge me $250.00 to replace it. You are the man 🙏🏽
Best video on RUclips! Both audio and video, comprehensive and gave me the confidence! Thanks 👍
Excellent instructions. Very clear. Good camera and lighting. Thanks for your help in getting my '06 Vibe's starter replaced!
Thank you so much! Glad to hear my video helped you get the job done!
Take care,

camera work and instructions are the best
@@user-oo1oo2hd9b thank you so much!
That's the greatest tutorial how to do it . After watching many this one show step by step very well described 👏 👌 👍
@@linh0rj667 thank you so much!
Just did this job on my '07 Vibe, yup remove cooling fan assy, make sure to disconnect battery, fly at 'er!, one plug, a 13mm on your pos. starter feed, two 14mm bolts (one on the lower left, other upper right under your harness, no need for an extensions, just move it up, undo the top to almost done, take the lower one out, undo the rest of top bolt and leave it in the hole :) ) Good vid man! I have a bunch of physical issues with arthritis etc. and it still took me just over an hour. IMHO Matrix and Vibes are very good cars for what they are, foolish that their production run was ended.
Fingers crossed replacing starter gets my 287k 06 vibe back in action to see 300! Thanks for the video share
Did you end up fixing it using this video
My matrix ( your vibe's twin) is at 283k and I also replaced the starter
Great job and nice information 😮😊
Thank you for your video. Nobody showed, that is better to remove the plastic cooler, only you.
Thank you for a perfect video on how to do this.
Great video. I am currently working on my first car (used Pontiac G3 2010) and it's having a delayed start so I am thinking about changing the alternator and/or starter. I already changed the spark plugs but to no effect. Still a novice to car fixing and it was previously owned by a nice old lady who had no use for it. I think this will help.
I am extremely grateful for this video there is other videos that tell you that you have to remove the intake manifold and that's a lot of work for nothing.
It is a piece of cake to remove the fan assembly like You show in this video.
After I remove the two big bolts the starter was stock and I started to panic.
So I grabbed a short piece of 2 X4 and with a rock and I got it out with 2 hits, I didn't have a mallet at hand 🤣.
Thank you so much for this excellent video 👌👍.
Happy to hear that you got it done!
Take care,
Dan
Thank you for another great video. I learned a lot of . Thanks again and God bless
Watched a few videos and this one was the best detailed. Took me around 30 or less to install this ⏰. Appreciate it!!
excellent video, thanks
Its not the original starter.....original starter has 13mm not 12mm nut for battery cable.
How did you know it was the starter
One sure way to see if it's the starter is to have someone try and start the car while you rack on the starter with a hammer or tire iron. If the tries to start or does start while doing this when it otherwise wasn't starting, then it's the starter.
This video made my starter replacement a slam dunk! Easy Peezy Lemon Squeezey. Thank you! 🙏
Glad to hear you got it done!
Or a Toyota Celica 2000-2005
Also a Pontiac vibe I think
this is not the right way to do it
What is the right way?
