I thought that, but didn't want to condemn the guy on his first post. If his second post includes a link to manuals, then yeah, shoot him .

I would guess at the one way clutch in the starter end gear.

Slips and grips due to wear on the rollers.

You may be correct. It's been noticeably better in the milder & dryer weather but was freezing this evening and it did again.

Had a similar issue a while back.
Seem to recall it ended up being a battery that still tested 12 volt but didnt quite have enough amp storage, especially when cold.
Also check the small push on spade connection is tight and clean.
You can remove the starter, get a good battery and test it using jumper Leads.

However would either of these faults cause the noise the OP is getting ??
