I would buy the solenoid contacts, and a new starter. Then pull yours and see if the contacts are bad or not. If they are, $20 contact kit and your laughing. If not, put a starter into it and return the contacts.

Mine had bad contacts at one time, and I just replaced the contacts. That was close to 18 months ago now on a daily driver.

If I pull it can you just tell by looking if the contacts are bad

You bet! You will notice the contact area on the contact will be significantly thinner than the rest of the contact.

Some places offer an upgraded contact as well.

I put the upgraded contacts in my starter when it started going on me. That was over 5 years ago, and no signs of any issues.
