Hello.

I've been advised by GAZW on the RS MKII Club board that a user on here, IMA, might be able to help me with a Bosch starter on my RS2000.

I'm after a Bosch motor, to replace the crappy Halfords one that's currently in the car - it appears to have died.

I understand that the Bosch motor isn't listed for the RS2, but that it's shorter bodied and a better motor than the standard fit Lucas model. With it not being listed, I'm finding it hard to get the part number.

I'd be really grateful for any help.

Thanks.

Chris.

 

hiya matey!! dont know if its any use to you but i used a starter off a sierra.. it was of the short type and a lot easier to fit.. also when she starts its a whole lot quieter!! sorry i cant remember what model of sierra it came off but it was deffo a 2.0ltr!!

 

all sorted now.

the model needed is a Bosch 1516 - also known as a Bosch 5012.

Ordered from TT Automotive.
