Market analysis
Why does the Mercedes S Class radiator cost more?
A used Mercedes S Class radiator carries a median asking price of $200, which is 100% higher than the Chrysler 300 at $100. Supply also plays a role: Mercedes S Class has 5,325 priced listings versus 572 for Chrysler 300, and more listings generally mean more choices and more competitive pricing.
Grade A (excellent condition) parts make up 78% of Mercedes S Class listings compared to 57% for the Chrysler 300, so buyers looking for top-condition units will find more options on the Mercedes S Class side.
The Chrysler 300 average ($141) runs 41% above its median ($100), indicating a tail of high-priced listings — likely low-mileage or remanufactured units pulling the average up.
Our guide covers 11 model years for the Chrysler 300 (2015–2025) but only 9 for the Mercedes S Class (2015–2024), so the Chrysler 300 data reflects a broader range of generations.
The Chrysler 300 radiator is interchangeable across 21 model years versus just 15 for the Mercedes S Class — that wider compatibility window means more donor vehicles in salvage yards and tends to push prices lower.
At Grade A (excellent) condition, the Chrysler 300 is 49% cheaper ($100 vs $195) — the gap widens compared to the overall median difference.
Buyer's checklist
What to check before buying a used radiator
- Inspect for bent or crushed fins — minor cosmetic bending is OK, but large crushed sections reduce cooling capacity.
- Check both tanks (top and bottom) for cracks, especially along the crimped seams on plastic-tank radiators.
- Confirm the inlet/outlet positions and sizes match — some models moved ports between model years.
- Look for internal blockage: shake the unit and listen for debris, or flush it with a garden hose before installing.
