The OEX Starter Motor BXS0120 is a new 12V starter motor with 9 teeth, clockwise rotation, and Bosch-style fitment. It is listed as a starter motor for the rotating electrical category and suits a dry clutch application. Key physical details include a 2-hole starter mount, 117mm mount centres, 82mm flange diameter, and an overall length of 242mm.

This unit is rated at 1.4kW and weighs 4.4kg. The pinion measures 25mm in diameter with 20mm pinion at rest, and the mount hole diameter is M12 / 10. Those measurements matter when confirming replacement compatibility, especially where the original starter uses the same mounting pattern and pinion setup.

Application and Buying Notes

Before ordering, compare the part number BXS0120 and the physical dimensions against the starter you are replacing. The important checks here are 12V voltage, 9-tooth pinion, clockwise rotation, 2-hole mount, 117mm mount centres, 82mm flange diameter, and 242mm overall length. If any of those differ from the original unit, the starter may not be the correct match even if the vehicle appears similar.

Because this starter suits Bosch-style applications, confirm the vehicle’s original unit details rather than relying on appearance alone. The pinion diameter is 25mm, the pinion at rest is 20mm, and the mount hole diameter is M12 / 10. Those measurements are especially useful where the existing starter has been replaced before, or where a previous repair may not have used the original part.

The warranty stated for new OEX units is 3 years for passenger vehicle use and 1 year for commercial use. Warranty terms are useful, but they do not replace fitment checks. For the best result, match the starter’s mounting pattern, rotation direction, tooth count, and part number before fitting.

If you are working from a vehicle application list, treat it as a guide only and confirm the exact engine and starter arrangement on the vehicle. Saab applications are listed, including Saab 9-3 and Saab 9-5 references, but the correct choice still depends on the original starter specification. Checking the existing unit first is the safest way to avoid a mismatch.

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 BXS0120 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 BXS0120 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 BXS0120, 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 SAAB 9-3, SAAB 9-3 1998, SAAB 9-3 1999, SAAB 9-3 2000. 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: Please confirm fitment using part number BXS0120 and the listed measurements, rotation, tooth count, mount type, and Bosch-style application details before purchase or installation.
