OEX Starter Motor 12V 9 Tooth CW Denso Style DXS499

The OEX Starter Motor DXS499 is a 12V, clockwise rotation unit with a 9 tooth pinion and a 2.2kW power rating. It is listed as a Denso style starter motor and uses a 2 hole starter mount type, with 116mm mount centres and an 82mm flange diameter.

This unit is new, not remanufactured, and weighs 6kg. Key physical measurements include a 235mm overall length, 35mm pinion diameter, 12mm mount hole diameter, and 23mm pinion at rest. Those dimensions matter when checking replacement suitability against the original starter on the vehicle.

The part number is DXS499. The listed note states that 9 tooth and 11 tooth units interchange, which is useful when comparing like-for-like replacements, but the rest of the installation details still need to match the vehicle application and the starter’s mounting pattern.

Application and Buying Notes

When comparing this starter to your original unit, the most important checkpoints are the DXS499 part number, 12V rating, clockwise rotation, 9 tooth pinion, and 2 hole mounting pattern. The listed dimensions of 116mm mount centres, 82mm flange diameter, and 235mm overall length should be checked against the removed starter before purchase.

The note that 9 tooth and 11 tooth units interchange may help when cross-checking alternatives, but it should not replace a proper physical comparison. Pinion at rest is listed at 23mm, and the pinion diameter is 35mm, so any mismatch in clearance or engagement shape should be treated carefully.

This starter is described as a Denso style unit and is suited to Denso applications. If the vehicle has been modified, had a previous replacement starter fitted, or uses a different mounting arrangement, the safest approach is to compare the original unit’s tags, bolt spacing, and housing dimensions rather than relying on the vehicle badge alone.

The warranty is listed as 3 years for passenger use and 1 year for commercial use. That is a useful ownership detail, but the correct application match still depends on the starter’s electrical and mechanical specifications, especially the tooth count, mounting style, and rotation direction.

Before supply, the safest approach is to confirm the original unit details against the listed part number, voltage, output rating, mounting arrangement, and pulley configuration. That checking process is standard practice in the parts trade because visually similar units can still differ in service-critical ways.

For workshop, fleet, and equipment applications, accurate identification of part number DXS499 helps avoid unnecessary freight, additional labour, and vehicle or machine downtime. Where the application is not straightforward, the original unit, OEM reference, or workshop records should be used as the primary confirmation point.

OEX Starter Motor 12V 9Th CW Denso Style. Part number DXS499 should be checked first. Listed voltage is 12. These details form the core reference points used by parts interpreters when confirming the correct replacement.

For part number DXS499, the normal identification sequence is part number, electrical rating, mounting arrangement, connector or terminal style, and pulley or drive details. Using those checkpoints helps confirm that the listed unit matches the service requirement rather than only looking similar.

For a starter motor in workshop, fleet, trade, agricultural, or construction service, the listed voltage 12 should be checked carefully. Incorrect selection can affect installation time, return freight, and equipment availability.

Available application references include DAIHATSU DELTA, DAIHATSU DELTA 1985, DAIHATSU DELTA 1986, DAIHATSU DELTA 1987, KIA PICANTO, KIA PICANTO 2016. Even with application listings, final confirmation should still be based on the exact unit being replaced and the service requirements of the vehicle or machine.

Compatibility note: Confirm fitment using the DXS499 part number, the 12V clockwise specification, 9 tooth pinion, 2 hole mounting pattern, and the listed measurements before purchase. Vehicle application references are provided, but final compatibility should always be checked against the original starter and the vehicle’s exact build details.
