You can replace the bushing... very cheap...

Mick Motors in Brisbane sell the reduction starter motors..
usually advertised in the VWA Magazine...

I bought a high torgue starter off Richard Holzl @ V Force
Had the same problem - bushing was stuffed and didnt want to muck round fixing it

Easier to put one of these in
