OEX Starter Motor 12V 1.2KW 8 Tooth CW Mitsubishi Style MXS333

The OEX starter motor MXS333 is a 12V unit with clockwise rotation, 8 teeth, and a 1.2kW power rating. It is listed as a Mitsubishi style starter motor with a 2 hole mount, 105mm mount centres, and a 77mm flange diameter, so matching the physical dimensions matters as much as matching the electrical specification.

This starter motor is new, weighs 3.2kg, and uses an M10x1.25 mount hole diameter with a 210mm overall length and 28mm pinion diameter. The pinion at rest is listed at 10mm, and the note states to check pinion at rest before fitting, particularly where transmission type affects application.

The application note identifies this starter as suitable for automatic transmission use, with the instruction that manual transmission applications should use MXS322 instead. If you are cross-referencing by part number, MXS333 is the key identifier to confirm before ordering, along with the 12V system requirement and the 8 tooth CW configuration.

Application and Buying Notes

Before ordering, check the part number MXS333 first, then compare the 12V rating, 8 tooth pinion, clockwise rotation, and the 2 hole mount with your existing starter. The listed mount centres are 105mm, the flange diameter is 77mm, and the mount hole diameter is M10x1.25, so these dimensions should be matched carefully rather than relying on appearance alone.

The supplied note is important: this starter is specified for automatic transmission and manual transmission use is directed to MXS322. Pinion at rest is listed at 10mm, so that measurement should be confirmed where starter engagement depth is a concern. The overall length of 210mm and pinion diameter of 28mm are also useful checkpoints when comparing the unit side by side with the existing part.

Fitment information supplied with this listing references Mitsubishi style applications and also includes applications across Hyundai, Kia and Proton model groups in the broader fitment data. Because only the product facts listed here should be used to confirm suitability, the safest method is to verify the part number, transmission type, tooth count, rotation, and the mounting dimensions before purchasing.

Warranty is listed as 3yr Passenger and 1yr Commercial. That gives a useful ownership benchmark, but it does not replace the need to confirm the starter matches your vehicle’s application details. A correct-looking starter can still be wrong if the transmission type, pinion rest position, or mount pattern does not line up with the vehicle already fitted.

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 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 MXS333 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, 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 COUPE, HYUNDAI COUPE 1996, HYUNDAI COUPE 1997, HYUNDAI COUPE 1998, KIA CERATO, KIA CERATO 2004. 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 part number MXS333, 12V electrical system, 8 tooth clockwise configuration, 2 hole mount, and the supplied automatic transmission note before ordering. If your vehicle is manual transmission, the listed alternative is MXS322.
