OEX Starter Motor 12V 10 Tooth CW Bosch Style BXS0159

The OEX Starter Motor BXS0159 is a 12V starter motor in Bosch style with clockwise rotation and a 10 tooth pinion. It is listed with a 1.4kW power rating, a 2 hole starter mount, and a wet/dry clutch note of dry, so those details should be checked against the vehicle application before purchase.

Physical dimensions are clearly defined for identification and comparison: overall length is 247mm, mount centres A are 89mm, nose cone length is 60mm, flange diameter is 60mm, and the mount hole diameter is M10x1.5. The unit weighs 3.42kg, which can also help confirm you are comparing the correct starter against the original part.

This starter is a new OEX rotating electrical part supplied as a single unit. The listed part number is BXS0159 and the stated suit make is Bosch, so matching the part number and starter style is the most reliable way to confirm suitability alongside the vehicle’s application details.

Application and Buying Notes

Before ordering, compare the part number BXS0159, the Bosch style design, and the 12V specification with the original unit fitted to the vehicle. The mount details are also important: this starter uses a 2 hole mount, 89mm mount centres, an M10x1.5 mount hole diameter, and a 60mm flange diameter.

The starter’s 10 tooth pinion, 28mm pinion diameter, and 26mm pinion at rest measurement are useful checks when the existing starter is available for comparison. These measurements help confirm the physical layout before installation, especially where several starters may look similar but differ in tooth count or nose cone size.

If you are matching by vehicle application, use the supplied fitment details together with the original starter’s shape and mounting pattern. The listed applications include Mercedes-Benz C-Class, CLK, S-Class, and 6-T references, but those names alone should not replace a direct part number or measurement check.

The 1.4kW power rating and clockwise rotation are key points to confirm because starter motors with similar housings can still differ in output or rotation direction. Checking the starter against the old unit before fitting is the safest way to avoid downtime and returns.

For commercial use, the warranty is listed as 1 year, while passenger use is listed as 3 years. Keep the purchase record and confirm the application category at the time of fitment so the warranty position is clear if the part is needed later for inspection or claim purposes.

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 BXS0159 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.

Additional published details for cross-checking include Weight 3.42kg, Product Group 1 ROTATING ELECTRICAL, Part No. BXS0159, Brand OEX, Description OEX Starter Motor 12V 10Th CW Bosch Style, Flange Diameter 60mm, Mount Hole Diameter M10x1.5, Number of Teeth 10, Pinion at Rest 26mm, Power Rating 1.4kW.

OEX Starter Motor 12V 10Th CW Bosch Style. Part number BXS0159 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 BXS0159, 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 6-T 2009, 6-T 2010, 6-T 2011, 6-T 2012, MERCEDES-BENZ C-CLASS, MERCEDES-BENZ C-CLASS 2005. 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 compatibility using the part number BXS0159, the Bosch style application, and the listed mounting and pinion measurements. Vehicle model names in the fitment preview should be treated as a guide only unless they match the original starter exactly.
