Application and Buying Notes

For a starter motor, the most useful checkpoints are the electrical rating, rotation, tooth count, and mounting dimensions. This OEX unit is 12V, 2kW, CCW, with 11 teeth, 119mm mount centres, and a 76mm flange diameter, so it should only be considered where those details align with the original starter.

The part number is BXS0181, and that is the safest identifier to compare first if you are matching an existing unit. The listing also notes the unit is not interchangeable with BXS4020, which is important if you are comparing similar Bosch-style starters that may look alike but differ in fitment or mounting.

The dry clutch note, 29mm pinion diameter, 42mm pinion at rest measurement, and 2 hole mount type are all practical checks that can prevent a mismatch. If the original starter differs in any of those areas, it should be treated as a separate application even if the vehicle model appears similar.

Warranty coverage is stated as 3 years for passenger use and 1 year for commercial use. That warranty does not replace fitment checking, so it is still important to confirm the starter’s shape, pinion count, rotation, and measurements against the removed unit or vehicle requirements before fitting.

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 BXS0181 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 BXS0181, 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.
