Supply also plays a role: Toyota Corolla has 12,662 priced listings versus 4,976 for GMC Terrain, and more listings generally mean more choices and more competitive pricing.

The Toyota Corolla average ($177) runs 46% above its median ($121), indicating a tail of high-priced listings — likely low-mileage or remanufactured units pulling the average up.

Our guide covers 9 model years for the Toyota Corolla (2017–2025) but only 7 for the GMC Terrain (2015–2025), so the Toyota Corolla data reflects a broader range of generations.

At Grade A (excellent) condition, the GMC Terrain is 40% cheaper ($73 vs $121) — the gap widens compared to the overall median difference.

Buyer's checklist

What to check before buying a used transmission control module

  • Match OEM hardware and software part numbers exactly, as shift schedules and solenoid driving algorithms differ between gear ratios and engine sizes.
  • Determine if the module is standalone, integrated into the PCM/ECM, or mounted internally on the transmission valve body (mechatronic unit).
  • Check if the module requires VIN programming, clutch adaptation relearns, or flash updating before normal gear engagement will occur.
  • Inspect connector pins for fluid wicking; leaky transmission harness seals can force transmission fluid up into the TCM connector plug pins.
