Troubleshooting & FAQ

Will this starter fit my Volvo Penta D12C engine?

Yes, this starter is designed to be compatible with Volvo Penta D12C marine engines manufactured between 1999–2004. However, always verify that the physical specifications and mounting points match your original part before purchasing and installing.
