OEX Starter Motor 12V 8T CW Mitsubishi Style MXS275

The OEX MXS275 is a 12V starter motor in Mitsubishi style, with clockwise rotation and 8 teeth on the pinion. It is a new unit, supplied as each, with a 0.9kW power rating and a 2 hole starter mount type.

Key dimensions on this starter motor include 105mm mount centres, a 77mm flange diameter, 10mm mount holes, 189mm overall length, and a 28mm pinion diameter. The pinion at rest is 9mm, so that measurement should be checked carefully before purchase.

This starter is listed for Mitsubishi applications and is noted as suitable for automatic transmission. For manual transmission, use MXS201. The unit is also described as dry clutch type, so matching the application and transmission type is important before fitting.

Application and Buying Notes

When replacing a starter motor, the safest check is to match the part number and the physical details together. MXS275 is a 12V, 8 tooth, clockwise starter with a 9mm pinion at rest, so those measurements should be compared against the existing unit before the part is ordered.

The mounting details matter just as much as the electrical rating. This unit has 105mm mount centres, a 77mm flange diameter, M10 mount holes, and a 2 hole starter mount type. If the bolt pattern or flange dimensions do not line up, the starter will not be a correct fit even if it appears similar.

Transmission type is another important checkpoint. This starter is specified for automatic transmission, and the note states that manual transmission vehicles should use MXS201 instead. That distinction is important on Mitsubishi applications, where similar-looking starters may differ in pinion position, rotation, or mounting arrangement.

The 0.9kW power rating and 3.2kg weight are useful reference points when comparing replacements. They do not replace the need to confirm the exact application, but they help distinguish this unit from other starter motors in the same family. For best results, compare the old starter’s label, mounting face, and pinion measurements before purchase.

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 MXS275 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 8Th CW Mitsubishi Style. Part number MXS275 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 MXS275, 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 ACCENT, HYUNDAI ACCENT 2000, HYUNDAI ACCENT 2001, HYUNDAI ACCENT 2002, MITSUBISHI LANCER, MITSUBISHI LANCER 1989. 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 MXS275 part number, the 12V 8 tooth CW configuration, the 9mm pinion at rest, and the automatic transmission application before ordering. If your vehicle is manual, MXS201 is specified instead.
