OEX Starter Motor 12V 9TH CW Delco Style DXS571

The OEX DXS571 is a 12V starter motor in a 9-tooth, clockwise rotation Delco style configuration. It is a new unit with a 1.4kW power rating, a 2-hole starter mount type, and a 105mm mount centre measurement, which are the key details to check when matching it to the vehicle application.

This starter motor has an 18mm pinion at rest, a 25mm pinion diameter, a 68mm flange diameter, and an overall length of 201mm. Those dimensions matter when comparing the replacement against the original starter, especially where clearance, bolt pattern, and housing style need to line up properly.

OEX lists this unit under part number DXS571 and suits Delco applications. It is supplied as a single starter motor each, with a dry clutch setup and a weight of 2.72kg. The warranty is 3 years for passenger use and 1 year for commercial use, which is useful to note before ordering for workshop or personal repair jobs.

Application and Buying Notes

When comparing this starter to your existing unit, start with the part number DXS571, the 12V electrical system, and the Delco-style, clockwise 9-tooth layout. The mounting details are also important: 105mm mount centres, 8.5mm mount holes, a 68mm flange diameter, and a 2-hole starter mount type. If any of those measurements differ from the old starter, do not assume it will fit.

The listed applications include HOLDEN Astra, Barina, Cruze, Trax, HONDA Insight, OPEL Astra, and OPEL Corsa. Even with those makes shown, it is still wise to match the vehicle by the original starter specifications and the part number where possible, because starter motors can vary within the same model range. Year coverage appears in the application data for some vehicles, but the safest check is the exact application detail against your vehicle.

For installation planning, the 1.4kW power rating and dry clutch design are practical identifiers to compare with the removed unit. The overall length of 201mm and pinion dimensions may matter in tighter engine bays, while the 2.72kg weight gives a rough sense of the unit size. If the vehicle has already been modified, or if the old starter has no legible identification, confirm the application before purchase.

The 3-year passenger and 1-year commercial warranty is a helpful reference, but warranty cover does not replace the need to confirm suitability. A starter motor needs the correct voltage, tooth count, rotation direction, mounting pattern, and unit make match to avoid repeat removal and downtime. If you are working on a fleet, workshop repair, or roadside replacement, checking these details first is the most reliable approach.

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 DXS571 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 Delco Style. Part number DXS571 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 DXS571, 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 HOLDEN ASTRA, HOLDEN ASTRA 2007, HOLDEN ASTRA 2008, HOLDEN ASTRA 2009, HONDA INSIGHT, HONDA INSIGHT 2009. 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 matching part number DXS571, the Delco-style application, 12V voltage, 9-tooth clockwise configuration, and all mounting dimensions against the original starter and vehicle application details before ordering.
