is the problem,that the flywheel teeth are being chewed out and same on starter.
or is the problem that starter and flywheel do not mesh properly when engaged?
if either of thses is the problem,this means that the gear on the starter is not matched to the teeth on the flywheel.
other problem that could be causing this is none or incorrect shims used when installing starter motor.
to fix this, you need to make a mark on the flywheel(use white out or something like that),and count the number of teeth.then do same on the starter motor.then find out from a drive line specialist,how many teeth shoud be on starter motor to match the flywheel.they can also tell you the shims to be used when installing starter motor to get proper clearance.

It can be a defective starter assembly that causes this problem. There are two parts to a starter assembly: the starter motor and the starter solenoid. The offending culprit is usually the starter solenoid, and it should be replaced.

That would be a bad starter gear mesh. Gears not aligning correctly causes this. The most common reason for bad starter gear alignment is worn out gear on the starter or starter ring gear. One or both will need to be replaced soon.

What causes a bad fly wheel on an automatic transmission car?
The flywheel can be cracked or the teeth on the flywheel can be broken or worn. Either of these conditions require the flywheel be replaced. I would also replace the starter when replacing the flywheel. This will prevent damage to the new flywheel from the worn teeth on the old starter.
