OEX Starter Motor 12V 9 Tooth CW Bosch Style BXS9015

The OEX Starter Motor BXS9015 is a new 12V starter motor with clockwise rotation, a 9 tooth pinion and a 3kW power rating. It is listed as a Bosch style unit and is suited to Bosch applications where the 3 hole starter mount, 127mm mount centres A, 90mm mount centres B and 90mm mount centres C match the vehicle or equipment fitted.

This unit has an overall length of 340mm, a 35mm pinion diameter, an 89mm flange diameter and an 11mm mount hole diameter. The pinion at rest measures 48mm, and the starter is listed as a dry clutch type with a weight of 14.76kg.

Application notes supplied with the part identify it for JD Series use and passenger side mount. Fitment references also include Mercedes-Benz Unimog, Peugeot XDP4.90, Steyr 8085 and a range of Volvo Construction and Volvo Marine/Penta applications, but correct matching still depends on the exact starter configuration and mounting details on the vehicle or engine.

OEX lists this starter as a new unit, sold each, with a 3 year passenger warranty and 1 year commercial warranty. The product is also identified as part number BXS9015 and OEM number 37540.

Application and Buying Notes

Before ordering, check the part number BXS9015 and compare the starter details against the unit already fitted to the vehicle or engine. The supplied dimensions matter: 127mm mount centres A, 90mm mount centres B and 90mm mount centres C, plus the 3 hole mount pattern and 11mm mount hole diameter, need to line up with the existing application.

Rotation direction is important on starters, and this unit is clockwise (CW). It is also listed as 12V with a 9 tooth pinion and 3kW output, so those values should be matched against the replacement required for the vehicle or equipment.

The note supplied for this part says JD Series and passenger side mount. That is useful guidance, but it should still be checked against the exact engine, starter position and mounting arrangement before purchase. A similar model family or engine designation does not replace a physical and part number check.

The overall length of 340mm, pinion diameter of 35mm and flange diameter of 89mm are practical confirmation points when comparing the old starter to the replacement. If any of those dimensions differ, the unit may not be the correct match even where the application name appears similar.

Because the fitment references span road, agricultural, construction and marine applications, it is best to confirm both the model and the exact starter specification on the existing unit. Marine and construction equipment can share similar names across different builds, so the safer approach is to verify the measured dimensions, tooth count, voltage and rotation before ordering.

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 BXS9015 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 Bosch Style. Part number BXS9015 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 BXS9015, 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 MERCEDES-BENZ UNIMOG, MERCEDES-BENZ UNIMOG 1978, MERCEDES-BENZ UNIMOG 1979, MERCEDES-BENZ UNIMOG 1980, PEUGEOT XDP4.90, PEUGEOT XDP4.90 1980. 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 BXS9015, the listed 12V CW Bosch style specification, and the mounting dimensions and application notes against the unit currently fitted to the vehicle or engine.
