Product Details

Remy 16088 is engineered for Mazda 6 starting-system service where the original starter uses a Mitsubishi OE design. The permanent magnet offset gear reduction layout helps deliver the torque needed for reliable engine cranking, while the closed nose and 22-tooth pinion support proper engagement with the engine’s starting components. If you are replacing a worn starter on a 2005, 2006, 2007, or 2008 Mazda 6, this part number provides a direct-fit remanufactured option.

This part cross-references Mitsubishi-style applications such as AJ34-18-400 and M1T96581 for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

• Slow or weak engine cranking
• No-start conditions caused by starter failure
