Used Hyundai i10 Starter Motor

Both the 2014 and 2016 i10 fall within the second-generation model (BA, roughly 2013–2019), so there is a reasonable chance the starter motor will interchange, but fitment depends primarily on the engine code rather than the year alone. Check the engine code on your V5 or via a VIN check and make sure the breaker matches it exactly. Ask the breaker to confirm compatibility against your registration before buying.

Yes, all petrol and diesel variants of the Hyundai i10 use a conventional starter motor to crank the engine. This applies across both the first-generation (PA, 2007–2013) and second-generation (BA, 2013–2019) models. If your i10 has a mild-hybrid or start-stop system, confirm with the breaker whether any additional compatibility requirements apply.

Yes, the first-generation PA i10 and the second-generation BA i10 are different platforms with different engines, so starter motors are not expected to interchange between generations. Always identify your engine code first — it is the single most reliable way to match the correct unit. A breaker can confirm against your registration to be certain.

No, trim levels like Classic, Active, SE, Premium, and Ultimate are cosmetic and equipment distinctions and do not affect the starter motor. What matters is the engine code, fuel type, and whether the car has a manual or automatic gearbox. Give the breaker your engine code and registration and they can identify the correct unit regardless of trim.

Almost certainly not — different engine sizes typically use different starter motors, and the engine code is the key detail here, not just the displacement. Confirm the exact engine code from your V5 or a VIN check and supply it to the breaker so they can match like-for-like. Never assume a unit from a different engine variant will fit without that check.

It can matter, as the ring gear on the flywheel or driveplate that the starter motor engages with differs between manual and automatic variants, which can affect starter motor compatibility. Always tell the breaker whether your i10 is a manual or automatic gearbox alongside the engine code. Confirm fitment against your registration before purchasing.
