OEX Alternator 12V 85A Delco Style DXA491

The OEX Alternator DXA491 is a new 12V, 85A alternator in a Delco style configuration, supplied as an each unit for rotating electrical applications. It is listed with a twin leg alternator mount, 80mm inside mounting legs, and a 165mm mount centre-to-centre measurement, so matching the mounting arrangement is an important step before purchase.

This unit uses an internal regulator and a 6 groove pulley with a 55mm outside diameter. The adjusting hole diameter is M8 x 1.25, the pivot hole diameter is 8, and the unit weight is 4.5kg. Those details matter when comparing against the original alternator or when checking replacement clearance and bracket alignment.

OEX lists this alternator for Delco applications, and the fitment information supplied includes Daewoo 1.5i, Cielo, Espero, Kalos, Lanos, and Nubira variants. Even where the vehicle family looks familiar, it is still best practice to confirm the part number DXA491 and the physical mounting dimensions against the existing unit before ordering.

Application and Buying Notes

Before ordering, compare the part number DXA491 with the alternator currently fitted to the vehicle. The mounting layout is specific: this unit has a twin leg mount, 80mm inside mounting legs, 165mm mount centre-to-centre, an 8mm pivot hole, and an M8 x 1.25 adjusting hole. If any of those measurements differ, the alternator may not align correctly in the bracket.

The electrical setup also needs to match. This alternator is 12V with an 85A power rating and an internal regulator, so it suits applications built around that style of charging system. The pulley is a 6 groove design with a 55mm outside diameter, which should be checked against the belt profile and pulley size already on the vehicle.

Fitment information supplied with this part points to a range of Daewoo applications, including 1.5i, Cielo, Espero, Kalos, Lanos, and Nubira variants. That said, vehicle badges alone are not enough to confirm the correct part. Production changes can occur within the same model family, so the safest approach is to verify the original alternator details and the application against the listed fitment before fitting.

This alternator is sold as a new unit and is covered by a 3 year passenger / 1 year commercial warranty. Warranty terms are helpful, but they do not replace the need to confirm dimensions, connector style, pulley type, and the Delco application match. A close physical comparison is still the most reliable way to avoid delay and return freight.

If you are replacing a failed alternator, check the belt alignment, bracket condition, and charging system wiring at the same time. A correctly matched alternator should sit squarely in the mount, accept the existing belt profile, and suit the vehicle’s charging setup without forcing the brackets or using improvised spacers.

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 DXA491 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 Alternator 12V 85A Delco Style. Part number DXA491 should be checked first. Listed voltage is 12. Listed output rating is 85. These details form the core reference points used by parts interpreters when confirming the correct replacement.

Mount style is Twin Leg. Regulator type is Internal. Pulley configuration is 6 Groove. Those physical and electrical details should line up with the original unit before the replacement is approved for fitment.

For part number DXA491, 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 alternator in workshop, fleet, trade, agricultural, or construction service, the listed voltage 12 and output 85 should be checked carefully. Incorrect selection can affect installation time, return freight, and equipment availability.

Available application references include DAEWOO 1.5I, DAEWOO 1.5I 1994, DAEWOO 1.5I 1995, DAEWOO CIELO. 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 DXA491, the Delco application, and the listed mounting and pulley dimensions before purchase. Vehicle model names are helpful, but they should be verified against the original alternator and the exact application on the vehicle.
