Our guide covers 9 model years for the Dodge Challenger (2015–2023) but only 7 for the Volvo XC40 (2019–2025), so the Dodge Challenger data reflects a broader range of generations.

Only 67% of Volvo XC40 starter listings include a posted price (137 of 204 observed) — the rest are "call for price," which usually signals negotiable or higher-than-average pricing.

Buyer's checklist

What to check before buying a used starter

  • Match the bolt pattern and nose cone length — starters from the same engine family may physically bolt up but not engage the flywheel correctly.
  • Check the solenoid for corrosion on the electrical terminals.
  • Ask whether it was bench-tested. A starter should crank firmly without excessive draw.
  • Verify the tooth count on the drive gear matches your flywheel or flexplate.
