Lego Pull-Back Motor problems, new vs. broken(ish)

[DamonMM2000]

Having problems with my LEGO pull-back motor, it is loud and coarse sounding. Compare it to a good one and notice the difference. The internals sound messed up, as if the gears or springs inside are misaligned or out-of-place. Tell me what you guys think about this.

Time for a new $20 set? I recommend the Record Breaker.

Thanks, but I've bought enough sets lately I'm buying a batch of PF components pretty soon, so… Edited March 4, 2015 by DamonMM2000
