OEX Starter Motor 12V 10TH CW Mitsubishi Style MXS2040

The OEX MXS2040 is a new 12V starter motor with 10 teeth, clockwise rotation, and a 1kW power rating. It is listed as a Mitsubishi style unit and is described as suitable for manual transmission applications only, so the OE number and application details need to be checked carefully before purchase.

This starter motor has a 3 hole mount type, 74mm flange diameter, 106mm mount centres A, 99mm mount centres B, and 37mm mount centres C. The mount hole diameter is M10x1.25, the overall length is 175mm, and the weight is 2.66kg, all of which are useful checks when matching against the original part.

The listed part number is MXS2040. The note states that the option offered must match OE number M000T32771 (M0T36271) and will not interchange with MXS2052 (M000T36771, M0T36771). That distinction matters, because the wrong unit may physically appear similar while not matching the required application.

Application and Buying Notes

Before ordering, confirm the OE number on the original starter and compare it with M000T32771 (M0T36271). The note specifically says this unit will not interchange with MXS2052 (M000T36771, M0T36771), so the part number match is just as important as the external shape and mounting pattern.

The mounting details are a practical way to check compatibility: 3 hole mount type, 74mm flange diameter, 106mm mount centres A, 99mm mount centres B, 37mm mount centres C, and M10x1.25 mount holes. These dimensions should be compared against the removed starter, especially where more than one Mitsubishi style option has been used in the same vehicle range.

The electrical and drive-side details are also worth verifying. This unit is 12V, clockwise rotation, 10 tooth, 31.5mm pinion diameter, with 16mm pinion at rest and a 1kW rating. Those figures help confirm the starter matches the required configuration rather than just the physical bolt pattern.

Because it is listed for manual transmission use, do not assume it suits an automatic application. The product is new, weighs 2.66kg, and is backed by a 3yr Passenger / 1yr Commercial warranty, but the warranty does not replace the need to confirm the correct OE number and application 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 MXS2040 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 10Th CW Mitsubishi Style. Part number MXS2040 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 MXS2040, 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 MAZDA 2, MAZDA 2 2007, MAZDA 2 2008, MAZDA 2 2009. 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 the vehicle application, transmission type, and OE number before ordering. Match the part number MXS2040 and the stated OE reference M000T32771 (M0T36271), and do not rely on visual similarity alone, as it will not interchange with MXS2052 (M000T36771, M0T36771).
