Is it possible to replace the starter on a 1990 Audi 80 without removing the engine?

I am trying to replace the starter on my 1990 Audi 80, but I'm not sure if I have to take out the entire engine to access it. Can anyone provide some insight on how to replace the starter without having to remove the engine?

Yes, it is possible to replace the starter without removing the engine. You will need to lift the car and access it from the bottom, but it is doable.

No, unfortunately you will have to remove the engine to access the starter. It's a more time-consuming process, but it's the only way to properly replace the starter.
