Hi guys,
I'm trying to source a starter motor for my A3 Sportback BKD 2.0tdi 140bhp 2006.
Having taken my current one off to count its teeth and check its model, I can confirm it has an 11 tooth count and is Valeo branded. Please see attached photos for evidence of current starter.
Eurocarparts suggest that there are 4 different brands and two different fitment types for this vehicle. Unfortunately, none of these match what I currently have.
The following starters are available on eurocarparts:
Fitment 1
RTX: 10 teeth ,1,7 KW
Hella: 10 teeth ,1,7 KW
Bosch: 10 teeth ,1,7 KW
Fitment 2
RTX: 12 teeth, 2 KW
Lucas: 12 teeth, 2 KW
All models offered have the same flange & lengths in mm.
Could anyone shed any light on which to buy? I'm limited to buying a factory refurbished one rather than from a breakers.
Cheers.
