Market analysis

How much does a used Mitsubishi Outlander AC compressor cost?

Asking prices for a used Mitsubishi Outlander AC compressor are unusually spread out: the top listing asks more than ten 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 63% premium over grade-C stock, with grade-A medians at $163.

Fitment variant moves the price more than most buyers expect. The most affordable variant we track, gasoline, lists at a $163 median, while plug-in hybrid (PHEV) commands $348, a 113% gap inside the same part category. Confirm which variant your VIN requires before comparing quotes.

Model year matters too: 2016 units carry the lowest median at $99, while 2021 tops the table at $230. Parts from 2009–2019 are interchangeable, so if the 2016 fits your vehicle, it offers the best value across 11 compatible years.

Against comparable vehicles, the Mitsubishi Outlander sits 4% above the Ford F150 ($150), 21% below the Mercedes E Class ($198), and 38% 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.
