Which vehicles will this starter motor fit?

This unit is built to match factory specifications for many Hyundai and Kia models fitted with L4 2.0L or L4 1.8L engines across several years. Fitment differs by model year and VIN details, so verify compatibility against your vehicle’s build date and VIN information before purchase.

• Hyundai Elantra 2017–2020 (L4 2.0L, Korea-built)
• Hyundai Tucson 2014–2020 (L4 2.0L) and Kona/Elantra GT 2018–2020 (L4 2.0L)
• Kia Soul 2014–2017 variations and Forte/Forte Koup/Forte5 models from 2014–2024 (various L4 1.8L and 2.0L fits)
• Check VIN-specific notes for start/stop exclusions and build-date cutoffs

How does this starter compare to the original equipment unit?

The A-Premium starter mirrors key OE specs — 12 volts, 1.3 kW power, 13-tooth pinion, and clockwise rotation — so it engages and performs similarly to the factory unit. Components such as bearings, brushes, and insulation use upgraded materials to improve longevity under normal driving conditions.

• Power and rotation match OEM: 12V, 1.3KW, clockwise
• 13 teeth pinion to mesh with original flywheel ring gear
• Reinforced internal parts and robust housing for extended service life
• Ships in custom protective color box to reduce transit damage

What should I know about installation and compatibility checks?

Installation follows the same steps as the factory starter: disconnect battery, remove wiring and mounting bolts, swap units, and tighten to specified torque. Always confirm the part reference numbers and match the starter’s orientation, electrical connections, and VIN/build-date constraints before installation to prevent returns.

• Compare reference numbers: 19301N, 36100-2E200, 36100-2E121, etc.
• Confirm clockwise rotation and 13-tooth pinion match your flywheel
• Verify start/stop feature exclusions for certain Kia Soul and Forte models
• Torque mounting bolts and reconnect battery after installation

What warranty and support come with the purchase?

A-Premium provides a one-year unlimited-mileage quality warranty covering manufacturing defects. If the starter arrives damaged or proves incompatible, customer support is available to help arrange a replacement or resolve fitment issues.

• 1-year unlimited-mileage quality guarantee
• Customer support for fitment questions or quality problems
• Packaged in protective custom color box to minimize transit damage

Who is this product for? If you own a compatible Hyundai or Kia model with a 2.0L or specified 1.8L L4 engine and need a dependable replacement starter that matches OEM specifications, this A-Premium unit is a practical choice. It suits DIY mechanics, independent repair shops, and fleet managers who require a ready-to-install, cost-effective replacement backed by a limited warranty.
