In a 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer, the starter is situated at the rear of the engine, under the intake manifold. It sits slightly towards the driver's side of the engine compartment and is secured in place with bolts. Accessing it can be tricky as you may need to remove components such as the air filter box, disconnect the negative battery cable, and take out bolts holding the shifter linkage bracket. Signs of a faulty starter include the engine not starting, the starter engaging without turning the motor, intermittent starting problems, grinding noises, and dim interior lights during startup. Replacing this part in a 2008 Lancer is estimated to cost between $490 and $620, with labor accounting for approximately $130 to $170 of the total amount.
