OEX Starter Motor 12V 8TH CW Mitsubishi Style MXS333-2

The OEX Starter Motor MXS333-2 is a new 12V starter motor with 8 teeth, clockwise rotation, and a Mitsubishi-style application. It uses a 2 hole starter mount, has a 77mm flange diameter, and measures 180mm overall length, so the physical dimensions and mounting style can be checked before ordering.

This unit suits Mitsubishi applications and is listed with moulded switch terminal for late model applications. Key dimensional details include 106mm mount centres A, 28mm pinion diameter, and 10mm pinion at rest, which are all useful checkpoints when comparing against the existing starter motor.

It is supplied as an OEX rotating electrical part, made using OE components for fit and function, and it is a new unit rather than remanufactured. The listed warranty is 3 years for passenger use and 1 year for commercial use, which is worth noting when selecting the correct replacement for a specific vehicle or duty cycle.

Application and Buying Notes

Before ordering, compare the existing starter motor against the listed part number MXS333-2, OEM number MXS333, and the physical measurements of 106mm mount centres A, 180mm overall length, and 77mm flange diameter. Those figures are the most direct way to check whether the starter will match the vehicle’s mounting arrangement and available space.

The 12V rating, 8 tooth pinion, 28mm pinion diameter, and clockwise rotation are important because a starter motor has to match the vehicle’s electrical system and starter drive arrangement as well as the bolt pattern. If any of those details differ from the unit already in the vehicle, the part should be rechecked before purchase.

This starter is described as Mitsubishi style and has a moulded switch terminal for late model applications, so terminal style is another point worth confirming. It is also a 2 hole mount design, which means the mounting arrangement should be checked against the original starter rather than assumed from vehicle make alone.

The listed warranty is 3 years for passenger use and 1 year for commercial use. That warranty period applies to the product as supplied, but correct installation and correct application matching remain essential. Starter motors are one of the parts where the wrong tooth count, rotation, or mounting offset can prevent proper operation even when the unit looks similar.

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 MXS333-2 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 Product Group 1 ROTATING ELECTRICAL, Part No. MXS333-2, Brand OEX, Description OEX Starter Motor 12V 8Th CW Mitsubishi Style, Flange Diameter 77mm, Number of Teeth 8, Pinion at Rest 10mm, Rotation CW, Voltage 12, New / Reman. New.

OEX Starter Motor 12V 8Th CW Mitsubishi Style. Part number MXS333-2 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 MXS333-2, 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 HYUNDAI I30, HYUNDAI I30 2007, HYUNDAI I30 2008, HYUNDAI I30 2009, KIA SPORTAGE, KIA SPORTAGE 2007. 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 MXS333-2, OEM number MXS333, and the measured details before ordering. Vehicle make alone is not enough; check the 12V rating, 8 tooth count, clockwise rotation, 2 hole mount, and terminal style against the existing unit.
