Where the Acura MDX radiator is listed
We found priced Acura MDX radiator listings at 114 salvage yards across 31 states. Arizona supplies the most, with 83 listings (14% of the total) from 8 yards. Location matters: yards in Arizona ask a median $110, while Indiana yards ask $345, 214% more for the same part. Shipping usually costs less than that gap for smaller parts, so it can pay to buy out of state.

Market analysis
How much does a used Acura MDX radiator cost?
Asking prices for a used Acura MDX radiator 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 65% premium over grade-C stock, with grade-A medians at $182.
Fitment variant moves the price more than most buyers expect. The most affordable variant we track, main, 3.5L, lists at a $255 median, while main, 3.0L (Type S) commands $404, a 58% gap inside the same part category. Confirm which variant your VIN requires before comparing quotes.
Model year matters too: 2018 units carry the lowest median at $103, while 2023 tops the table at $309. Parts from 2014–2025 are interchangeable, so if the 2018 fits your vehicle, it offers the best value across 10 compatible years.
Against comparable vehicles, the Acura MDX sits 35% below the Mercedes GLE Class ($300), 2% below the Mercedes S Class ($200), and 31% above the Ford Explorer ($150) for the same part. The “similar vehicles” cards below open each comparison guide.
Buying a used radiator: what to check
- Inspect for bent fins, crusted seams, and dried coolant trails, all signs of leaks.
- Confirm automatic vs manual transmission versions; auto radiators include cooler lines.
- Plastic end tanks age badly. Favor low-mileage donors.
- Pressure-tested units are worth the premium; ask.
