Land Rover Part Number: NAD500210 - Starter Motor - 2.5 Diesel to 300Tdi
NAD500210 is a starter motor for 2.5-litre, 4-cylinder diesel engines (200Tdi and 300Tdi). It mounts to the engine bellhousing and, when operated, the solenoid pushes the drive pinion into the flywheel ring gear and converts battery electrical energy into the mechanical rotation required to crank the engine during start-up. Replace the unit if it is noisy, cranks slowly or fails to engage, and ensure any replacement matches the engine flange and electrical connections.

Frequently Asked Questions
The NAD500210 is a starter motor that uses the vehicle battery to produce the rotation needed to crank the engine at start-up; its solenoid pushes the drive pinion into the ring gear and supplies current to the motor windings. Common failure modes are slow cranking, intermittent engagement, grinding or complete failure to engage, often caused by worn brushes, solenoid faults or poor electrical connections. Ensure any replacement matches the engine flange and starter electrical terminals for correct fitment.
