First of all :welcome2:
Have you tried hitting hard it with a lump of wood? If it is spinning but not engaging, a quick shock often does the trick! And if that doesn't work ... hit it a bit harder!!

HI

I have a discovery and I get a problem.
The starter motor work I means you can hear the electric motor.
Anyway the starter motor no start the car or move any other parts.
I can start the car if I pushing and I can driver after. Not idea where can be the problem. Some one say to me possible is the ring gear.
ANY IDEAS?
thanks in advance

more likely starter ,take it off you can check ring gear then through hole while somone turns engine over ,but most likely starter motor,either isnt been thrown out enough or clutch has gone
