Unhappy 1999 w140 m104

I've been thru 4 starters since November 11.I been using
Advance Auto Parts starters made by world wide.The Manager says with any other car but mine,they are zero return.Sure its alifetime warrenty,but its 101 degrees and I'm tired of changing starters.
I had bought a Bocsh and they sent a backwards starter.So now I'm thinking Denso.
Help. Nathan

NO, there is no starter module.

My best guess would be:
* a bad ground, body to engine/transmission.
* a failing NSS = Neutral Safety Switch on the transmission.
* a failing ignition switch.
