It uses a 2 hole starter mount, 105mm mount centres and a 66mm flange diameter, so the physical layout needs to match the vehicle application before purchase.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis unit is listed with an overall length of 216mm, a 28mm pinion diameter, 9mm mount hole diameter and 4mm pinion at rest. It weighs 3.32kg and is intended for dry clutch applications. Those dimensions are the practical checks that matter when comparing against the original starter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOEX identifies this starter under part number MXS253 and notes that 8 tooth and 9 tooth units are interchangeable. That interchange note is useful, but the safest approach is still to confirm the part number, tooth count, mounting style and rotation against the vehicle’s original unit or application listing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew 12V starter motor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClockwise rotation (CW)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8 tooth pinion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1.7kW power rating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 hole starter mount\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMitsubishi style unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: OEX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart No.: MXS253\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduct type: Starter motor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVoltage: 12V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRotation: CW\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower rating: 1.7kW\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNumber of teeth: 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStarter mount type: 2 hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVehicle application guidance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHOLDEN CRUZE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHOLDEN DROVER\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSUZUKI APV\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSUZUKI BALENO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSUZUKI CARRY\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSUZUKI GRAND VITARA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSUZUKI GRAND VITARA (INC XL-7)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSUZUKI JIMNY\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eApplication and Buying Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBefore ordering, check the original starter against MXS253 for the 12V electrical system, clockwise rotation, 8 tooth pinion and 2 hole mount. The listed 105mm mount centres, 66mm flange diameter and 216mm overall length are the main physical points that should line up with the vehicle’s existing starter arrangement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe note that 8 tooth and 9 tooth units are interchangeable may help where the application allows either style, but it should not replace a direct comparison of the existing unit. Pinion diameter, pinion at rest measurement and mount hole size are all worth confirming if the old starter is available.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis starter is described as Mitsubishi style and intended for dry clutch use, so it is important to match the application rather than relying on appearance alone. If the vehicle has been modified, or if the original part has been changed previously, verify the part number, rotation and mounting pattern carefully before purchase.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOEX supplies this unit as a new starter motor, and the listed warranty is 3 years for passenger use or 1 year for commercial use. Warranty coverage should be read alongside the application details, because the correct fit still depends on matching the vehicle’s original starter specifications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBefore 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor workshop, fleet, and equipment applications, accurate identification of part number MXS253 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRelevant published details for this unit include Type STARTER MOTOR, Unit of Measure EACH, Warranty 3yr Passenger 1yr Commercial, Mount Centres A 105mm, Number of Teeth 8, Pinion at Rest 4mm, Power Rating 1.7kW, Suits Unit Make Mitsubishi, Note 8 tooth and 9 tooth units interchangeable, Starter Mount Type 2 Hole.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdditional published details for cross-checking include Weight 3.32kg, Product Group 1 ROTATING ELECTRICAL, Part No. MXS253, Brand OEX, Description OEX Starter Motor 12V 8Th CW Mitsubishi Style, Flange Diameter 66mm, Mount Hole Diameter 9, Overall Length 216mm, Pinion Diameter 28mm, Rotation CW.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOEX Starter Motor 12V 8Th CW Mitsubishi Style.
