Where the Acura ILX starter is listed
We found priced Acura ILX starter listings at 107 salvage yards across 17 states. Texas supplies the most, with 103 listings (35% of the total) from 34 yards. Location matters: yards in Wisconsin ask a median $56, while Michigan yards ask $178, 218% 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 ILX starter cost?
Asking prices for a used Acura ILX starter 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 39% premium over grade-C stock, with grade-A medians at $85.
Fitment variant moves the price more than most buyers expect. The most affordable variant we track, 1.5L (Hybrid), lists at a $65 median, while 2.0L commands $120, a 85% gap inside the same part category. Confirm which variant your VIN requires before comparing quotes.
Model year matters too: 2017 units carry the lowest median at $60, while 2018 tops the table at $89. Parts from 2016–2022 are interchangeable, so if the 2017 fits your vehicle, it offers the best value across 7 compatible years.
Against comparable vehicles, the Acura ILX sits 33% below the Ford F150 ($120), 36% below the Mercedes S Class ($125), and 6% below the Dodge Challenger ($85) for the same part. The “similar vehicles” cards below open each comparison guide.
Buying a used starter: what to check
- Ask if the unit was bench-tested. Starters are cheap to test and yards that do will say so.
- Match the flywheel tooth count and mounting bolt pattern to your engine code.
- Check the solenoid connector style; mid-year changes are common.
- A remanufactured unit with warranty is sometimes only slightly more than used, so compare both.
