Market analysis

How much does a used Honda Pilot AC compressor cost?

Asking prices for a used Honda Pilot AC compressor are unusually spread out: the top listing asks about 6 times what the cheapest does, so which unit you pick matters more than the median. Condition matters: grade-A units (lowest mileage, best condition) carry roughly a 70% premium over grade-C stock, with grade-A medians at $170.

Fitment variant moves the price more than most buyers expect. The most affordable variant we track, ID 38810RLVA01, lists at a $162 median, while ID 3881061AA01 commands $200, a 23% gap inside the same part category. Confirm which variant your VIN requires before comparing quotes.

Model year matters too: 2015 units carry the lowest median at $100, while 2023 tops the table at $248. Parts from 2010–2015 are interchangeable, so if the 2015 fits your vehicle, it offers the best value across 6 compatible years.

Against comparable vehicles, the Honda Pilot sits 9% above the Ford F150 ($150), 18% below the Mercedes E Class ($199), and 34% below the Mercedes GLE Class ($250) for the same part. The “similar vehicles” cards below open each comparison guide.

Buying a used AC compressor: what to check

  1. Ask whether the compressor was removed with the system still sealed. Open systems ingest moisture.
  2. Confirm the clutch engages freely and the pulley spins without grinding.
  3. Match the refrigerant type (R-134a vs R-1234yf). They don't interchange.
  4. Budget for a new receiver-drier and system flush at installation.
