Original starters for popular car brands

Wide range of starter motors – BMW, Mini, Mercedes, Audi, Volkswagen and others

Starter motors are key components of the starting system, responsible for starting the engine. Their efficient operation is essential for every vehicle, as they are the engine's starting point. At Global Parts, you'll find a wide selection of used car parts. , including starter motors, ideal for BMW , Audi , Mercedes , Volkswagen , Mini and others .

What functions do pacemakers perform?

Starter motors play a key role in the vehicle starting process: Starting the engine – The starter motor uses energy from the battery to spin the crankshaft, allowing the fuel-air mixture to ignite. Interoperability with other systems – The starter motor works in conjunction with the battery, alternator and ignition system to create an integrated starting system. Precise and fast operation – An efficient starter starts the engine in a few seconds, regardless of weather conditions.

Definition and technical parameters

A starter motor is an electric DC motor, whose power, depending on the vehicle model, typically ranges from 0.8 kW to 2.5 kW . Cars with larger diesel engines (e.g., BMW E87 2.0d or Mercedes Sprinter 2.2 CDI ) use more powerful starters with a starting current of up to 250–350 A. Versions designed for compact cars, such as the Volkswagen Golf 5 or BMW E36, most often have a power of 1.1–1.4 kW, which is more than enough to start the engine efficiently.

Why is it worth taking care of pacemakers ?

Damaged or worn starter motors can lead to vehicle starting problems. Typical symptoms include: Problems starting the engine – Poor starter speed or no response to turning the key may indicate a starter failure. Unusual Noises – Grinding or humming noises during starting may indicate mechanical wear of the starter motor. Increased battery load – A faulty starter motor can cause excessive battery power consumption. At Global Parts we offer original used starter motors, which have undergone detailed quality tests, ensuring their durability and reliability.

Symptoms and Compatibility Summary

Symptom of disability	Possible cause in the starter motor	Particularly vulnerable models / examples
Slow engine rotation	Worn brushes, low starting current	Renault Master, VW Golf 5
Grinding on startup	Damaged Bendix gear	BMW E36, Audi A4 B7
No response to the key	Damaged electromagnet (solenoid)	BMW E87, Mercedes W211
Humming or buzzing	Damaged windings or short circuit	Opel Astra H, Skoda Octavia

How to choose the right starters ?

When choosing pacemakers, there are several key aspects to consider: Vehicle-specific fit – Every starting system has its own specific technical requirements. At Global Parts, you'll find starter motors perfectly suited to BMW , Audi , Mercedes , Volkswagen , Mini , and more . Technical condition – Used starter motors should be free from mechanical and electrical damage, and their components, such as brushes and gears, should be in good condition. Starter Motor Type – Make sure the starter motor you choose is compatible with the engine type in your vehicle (petrol, diesel).

Model Fit Examples

Starter motor Renault Master 2.5 dCi – compatible with diesel units, equipped with stronger windings.
BMW E87 starter motor – available in various versions depending on the year and engine (e.g. 118d, 120i).
Starter motor Golf 5 1.9 TDI – a popular model used in many engine versions of Volkswagen and Skoda.
BMW E36 starter motor – a classic example of compatibility with 1.6–2.8 petrol engines.

Why choose used starter motors ?

Used car parts , such as starter motors, are a practical solution that allows you to save money while maintaining high quality. By choosing used starter motors, you gain: Lower costs – Used starter motors are much cheaper than new ones, but offer just as high quality. Ecology – Recycling car parts supports environmental protection and reduces waste. A wide range – In our store you will find starter motors for the most popular car brands.

Advantages of OEM compatibility

Thanks to OEM markings, starter motors can be matched not only to a specific model but also to the part number. This means, for example, a starter motor for a BMW E87 may also be compatible with other BMW versions with a similar engine, making selection easier and providing purchasing flexibility.

How to take care of pacemakers ?

To ensure that starter motors function reliably for a long time, it is worth following a few rules: Check the battery condition regularly, as insufficient voltage can put a strain on the starter motor. Avoid repeatedly trying to start the engine in a short period of time – this can cause the starter motor to overheat. Check the condition of the electrical wires and contacts in the starting system to ensure proper operation. If you need a replacement, you'll find the right used car parts at Global Parts that will restore full functionality of your starting system.
