Ah, got it. Try shim the bevel gear away from the pinion gear a little bit. That should compensate for the lack of wear on the pinion gear, which I think could be the problem.

Jester I actually took that picture from a search of an AGM.. Seems to me from what I found that some models do not have a way to adjust height :/

I had a smililar problem with my V7. But it turns out since it's really hard to tell how the motor pinion sits against the first gear I had no idea what the problem is. But once I did some tinkering and I found out that I shimmed the first gear too high and it was causing the motor pinion to not move because there was so much stress between the first gear and and pinion. So I re-shimmed it, lowered the first gear and it works like a charm.
