Application and Buying Notes
For this starter, the most useful checks are the part number DXS506, the 12V rating, the 9 tooth pinion, and the clockwise rotation. If any of those do not match the vehicle or the removed unit, stop and compare again before buying. The Delco unit make is also a key identifier for matching the correct replacement style.
Physical measurements are just as important on a starter motor. This unit has a 94mm mount centres measurement, 75mm flange diameter, 11.5mm mount hole diameter, 210mm overall length, and 65mm nose cone length. The pinion diameter is 25mm and the pinion at rest is 29mm, so these dimensions should be checked against the original starter or the vehicle’s requirements.
The 1.2kW power rating gives a useful comparison point if you are matching output to a removed starter, but the correct choice still depends on the full fitment details. Where a vehicle listing is provided, use it as a guide and then confirm the shape, mounting pattern, pinion count, and rotation direction before fitting.
Because starter motors can look similar while differing in mounting style or gear arrangement, it is worth comparing photos, measurements, and the part number together. This unit is listed as a new OEX starter motor and is supplied with a 3 year passenger warranty or 1 year commercial warranty, so confirm the intended vehicle use as well as the physical match.
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 DXS506 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.

For part number DXS506, 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 CAPTIVA 5, HOLDEN CAPTIVA 5 2011, HOLDEN CAPTIVA 5 2012, HOLDEN CAPTIVA 5 2013. 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: Please confirm compatibility using part number DXS506, the 12V 9 tooth clockwise Delco-style specification, and the listed mounting and dimension details before purchase.
