Mahle Starter Motor 12V 11 Tooth CW MS175
The MAHLE MS175 starter motor is a new 12V unit with 11 teeth and clockwise rotation, supplied as a starter motor each. It is listed with a 4.2kW power rating, a dry clutch setup, and a 3-hole starter mount type, so it suits applications where those mounting and drive details match exactly.
Key physical dimensions include 127mm mount centres A, 90mm mount centres B, 90mm mount centres C, an 89mm flange diameter, an 11mm mount hole diameter, and a 41mm pinion diameter. The pinion at rest measures 48mm, with a 45.0 degree connecting angle and 14.39 tooth pitch.
This MAHLE starter motor is described as suitable for a range of agricultural and heavy-duty applications, including selected CASE IH, CHALLENGER, FENDT, GLEANER, JCB, MASSEY FERGUSON, ROGATOR, VALMET and VALTRA listings shown in the fitment details. Matching the part number MS175, the unit make, and the physical specification is the safest way to confirm suitability before ordering.

Application and Buying Notes
Before ordering, compare the MAHLE MS175 part number, the 12V electrical specification, and the 11-tooth CW drive layout against the original starter on the machine. The mounting pattern is also critical here: this unit is listed with a 3-hole starter mount, 127mm mount centres A, 90mm mount centres B and C, plus an 89mm flange diameter.
The pinion details matter just as much as the voltage rating. This starter has a 41mm pinion diameter, 48mm pinion at rest, 14.39 tooth pitch, and 45.0 degree connecting angle, so it should only be considered where those dimensions align with the existing setup and ring gear arrangement.
The fitment list covers a broad range of tractors and equipment families, but model names alone are not enough to confirm compatibility. Year ranges, engine variants, and starter revisions can differ, so the safest check is to match the part number MS175 and compare the mounting and drive measurements against the old unit or the vehicle’s parts record.
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 MS175 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.

Mahle Starter Motor 12V 11Th CW. Part number MS175 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 MS175, 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 CASE IH CVX, CASE IH CVX 2003, CHALLENGER MT, CHALLENGER MT 2002, CHALLENGER MT 2003, CHALLENGER MT 2014. 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.
The listed warranty is One Year. Warranty terms should be considered alongside correct application and part identification, as warranty does not replace fitment confirmation.
Compatibility note: Confirm fitment by matching MAHLE part number MS175, the 12V clockwise 11-tooth specification, and the listed mounting and pinion measurements against your existing starter and application details before purchase.
