OEX Starter Motor 12V 9TH CW Mitsubishi Style MXS215

The OEX MXS215 is a new 12V starter motor in Mitsubishi style, with clockwise rotation, 9 teeth, and a 1.4kW power rating. It is listed with a 2 hole starter mount, 110mm mount centres, an 82mm flange diameter, and a 195mm overall length, so those physical details can be checked against the original unit before purchase.

This starter motor suits Mitsubishi applications and is noted as interchangeable between 8th and 9th units. The pinion sits at rest at 8mm, the pinion diameter is 28mm, and the mount hole diameter is 10mm, which are all useful points to compare when identifying the correct replacement starter for the vehicle or equipment.

OEX supplies this unit as part of its rotating electrical range for the Australian automotive aftermarket. The listed warranty is 3 years for passenger use and 1 year for commercial use, with the part supplied new rather than remanufactured.

Application and Buying Notes

Use the part number MXS215, the 12V rating, and the Mitsubishi-style description as the first checks when matching this starter motor. The important physical measurements are 110mm mount centres, 82mm flange diameter, 195mm overall length, 10mm mount hole diameter, and a 2 hole starter mount, so the replacement should be compared carefully with the removed unit.

The drive details also matter. This unit has 9 teeth, a 28mm pinion diameter, 8mm pinion at rest, clockwise rotation, and a 1.4kW power rating. Those values help distinguish it from similar-looking starters that may not suit the same application.

The unit is listed as new and for a dry clutch application. If you are replacing a starter on Mitsubishi equipment or another listed application, confirm the existing unit’s mounting pattern and drive specification before ordering, especially where the 8th and 9th unit interchange note may apply.

Warranty cover is listed separately for passenger and commercial use, so it is worth checking how the vehicle or machine will be used before purchase. The stated cover is 3 years for passenger applications and 1 year for commercial applications, which is different from remanufactured unit coverage and should be understood before fitting.

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 MXS215 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.
