OEX Starter Motor 12V 8 Tooth CW Mitsubishi Style MXS325

The OEX MXS325 is a new 12V starter motor with an 8 tooth pinion, clockwise rotation and Mitsubishi style fitment. It is listed as a 2 hole starter mount with 105mm mount centres, a 77mm flange diameter and M10 mount holes, so those dimensions can be checked against the existing unit before purchase.

Rated at 1.2kW and weighing 3.22kg, this starter motor suits applications where the original unit matches the same voltage, tooth count, rotation and mounting layout. The pinion at rest is 10mm and the pinion diameter is 28mm, which are useful checks when comparing a replacement starter to the one already fitted.

OEX lists this unit under part number MXS325 and describes it as Mitsubishi style. The product is new, supplied each, and covered by a 3yr passenger / 1yr commercial warranty, which gives a clear reference point for buyers who are replacing a worn starter on an identified application.

Application and Buying Notes

Before ordering, match the existing starter against the key identifiers on this unit: 12V, 8 tooth pinion, clockwise rotation, 2 hole mount, 105mm mount centres, 77mm flange diameter and M10 mounting holes. Those details are the most practical checks when confirming whether the replacement is the same style as the starter already fitted.

The part number is MXS325 and the description identifies it as Mitsubishi style, so that combination should be used alongside the vehicle application details rather than relying on appearance alone. Overall length is 195mm and pinion at rest is 10mm, which can help when comparing space and engagement position to the original unit.

This starter is listed as new and rated at 1.2kW. If you are replacing a starter on a commercial vehicle, the warranty listed is 1yr commercial; for passenger use, the listed warranty is 3yr passenger. Warranty terms do not replace fitment checking, so the application and mounting measurements still need to be confirmed first.

The fitment list includes several Mitsubishi and non-Mitsubishi applications, but only use those references if they match the exact vehicle and engine combination you are working on. Starter motors can look similar across different models, yet small differences in tooth count, rotation, or mounting dimensions can prevent correct installation.

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 MXS325 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 8Th CW Mitsubishi Style. Part number MXS325 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 MXS325, 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 FE4) 1986, FE4) 1987, FE4) 1988, FE4) 1989, FE6) 1989, FE6) 1990. 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 by checking part number MXS325, 12V electrical system, 8 tooth CW configuration, and the mounting dimensions against the original starter and vehicle application details before ordering.
