Application and Buying Notes
Starter motors need to match more than just voltage, so the 12V rating, 9 tooth pinion, clockwise rotation, and 2 hole mount type should all be checked together before ordering. For this unit, the critical identifiers are BXS0198, Bosch style, and the recorded dimensions of 121mm mount centres, 74mm flange diameter, and 248mm overall length.
The mounting details matter because the mount hole diameter is listed as M10x1.5 / 11, while the pinion at rest is 26mm and the pinion diameter is 29mm. Those measurements help with physical comparison against the existing starter, especially where the vehicle application may have more than one starter variant.
The 2.3kW power rating is a useful check point when comparing replacement units, but it should not be treated as the only compatibility guide. Use the part number, tooth count, rotation, and mounting pattern together to confirm the correct fit for the vehicle and engine setup.
This OEX starter motor is new and sold each, with a 3 year passenger / 1 year commercial warranty. That warranty applies to the product as supplied, so it is still important to compare the Bosch style designation and the fitment details before finalising the order.
If you are replacing a starter on an Audi A8, Audi Q7, or Volkswagen Touareg, check the existing unit against the listed dimensions rather than relying on the vehicle badge alone. The fitment preview includes A8 applications from 2005 to 2010, Q7 applications from 2007 to 2010, and Touareg applications from 2010 to 2018.
For workshop or fleet use, the weight of 4.78kg and the listed mount centres can also assist with parts checking and handling. A direct comparison with the removed starter is the safest way to confirm that the Bosch style configuration and mounting pattern line up correctly.
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 BXS0198 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 BXS0198 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 BXS0198, 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 AUDI A8, AUDI A8 2005, AUDI A8 2006, AUDI A8 2007, VOLKSWAGEN TOUAREG, VOLKSWAGEN TOUAREG 2010. 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 the part number BXS0198, the Bosch style designation, 12V CW rotation, 9 tooth count, 2 hole mount type, and the listed dimensions against the existing starter and vehicle application before ordering.
