Bell Sound When Starting
I get this sound like a bell ringing just once every time I start up. The car is an 82 240D. Any ideas what it could be & if it is something I should worry about?
Thanks!

Is the car starting? A friend of mine has this problem with a BMW. Was the starter replaced recently? Sounds like it may need shimmed. That is probably your flywheel making the ringing sound when hit by the starter.

Yes, the car starts just fine. I did replace the starter about 6 months ago. I'm not sure if it has been doing this the whole time or not, though. That sounds about right though. Any idea how much I should shim it at a time?
Thanks!
