Why can't ford find one? Do you mean it was German built? Is it a different engine than local diesel focus/Mondeo?

just go to rexbo.eu and enter your details you can probably even count the teeth on the pictures from rexbos website there pictures are what you buy I even had to order a dahatsu ball joint from there because there is non in this country for the japanese make nor in japan. same thing for shitty mazda crap no parts or they cost 4000% more from mazda dealers then on rexbo online german sales site. Eu is english website if its not change the flag from de to english

also be awear some starter motors need to be programmed in to the cars engine managment with a professional oem level bidirectional scantool as the start command is sent via can bus to the chip of the starter like its done on some merzedes A class as a example rexbo usually have online install distructions on there info to read about the product installation guide.

mazda dealers dont have any parts for there crap and if they do they want 400$ for the cambelt listen up the belt nothing more, the tensioner was ex japan over 200$ . i did learn years ago when i owned a telstar 626 mazda with ford badge what absolute gungsters they are when they wanted almost 600$ for a heater core . i fitted 2 secoundhand ones and it was the last time i owned a piece of crap mazda rubbish whom dont have parts or charge 10 folds of what toyota fiat and vw parts cost. other gungsters are renault dealers in this country they get parts cheap from europe make you wait and charge you 400% more then what it costs if you order it from a normal renault agent in europe at retail prices there.

there is a lot of models and different engines i just looked c-max 2.0 has 11 teeth written in huge letters. so find the right one and make sure you take the mesurments on your starter and cound the teeth again on yours . i usually make a paint mark to be sure to know what tooth is the one i started from before you order from rexbo. you will need a vernier caliper and know how to read one for mesurments. here some details of a random one Voltage: 12 V Rated Power: 2,2 kW Number of Bores: 3 Rotation Direction: Clockwise rotation Flange Ø: 63 mm Number of Teeth: 11 i never ever got wrong parts because there discriptions are exactly what you order. make order 360$nz with the shipping cost and you wont get charged import taxes abd parts will be here in about 12 days . 3 days to nz 7+ days in customs and maf clearance and then delivered with dhl to your door step

Never forget a bloke went in to GM in TeAwamutu for a head gasket for his Vauxhall and my mate got the head gasket and took it to the parts desk to show the customer and the bloke goes" Aw nah that's not the right one cause my Vauxhalls got the mk2 Zephyr motor in it eh"
