Fitment variant moves the price more than most buyers expect. The most affordable variant we track, 2.0L, VIN 9 (8th digit, turbo), lists at a $82 median, while 3.0L (turbo) commands $147, a 79% 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 $65, while 2017 tops the table at $150. Parts from 2013–2019 are interchangeable, so if the 2015 fits your vehicle, it offers the best value across 7 compatible years.

Buying a used AC condenser: what to check

  1. Inspect fins for road-debris damage across the lower third, the usual impact zone.
  2. Confirm the refrigerant type and fitting style match your system.
  3. Bent inlet lines are common in removal; check photos closely.
  4. Replace the receiver-drier at the same time. It's cheap and protects the system.
