OE 36100-2E000 — Starter assembly for Hyundai / Kia

Four variables explain most of the spread: material grade, whether the goods are new production or clearance stock, packing format, and whether the quote is ex-works or landed. Ask for the material certificate alongside the price — that is what makes a comparison like-for-like.

Standard minimum order is 10 pieces per part number. Mixed orders that combine 36100-2E000 with other electrical & sensors references are welcome — that is how most clients fill an LCL or FCL container without over-stocking a single line.

Position depends on the platform. On most Hyundai / Kia applications the starter assembly sits on the electrical & sensors assembly and can be reached from the engine bay or the underbody without removing the dashboard. Torque figures and disassembly order are given in the workshop manual for each model.

Start from the code cast or printed on the part you are removing — that is the authoritative source. If it is illegible, use the Applications table on the closest electrical & sensors reference and narrow by build year. Send photos and we will cross-check the number for you.

OEM means the part was produced for the vehicle maker's assembly line; aftermarket means it is made independently to the same engineering drawing. For a starter assembly the practical gap is usually tooling age and packaging rather than fit, provided the tolerance class matches.

Noise normally traces to worn internal surfaces, a loose mount, a dry bearing or contact with a neighbouring part. Isolate it by reproducing the sound at a fixed speed, then compare against the reference photo for 36100-2E000 to confirm the right replacement.
