Regional supply
Where the Honda Pilot starter is listed
We found priced Honda Pilot starter listings at 220 salvage yards across 35 states. Florida supplies the most, with 166 listings (16% of the total) from 24 yards. Location matters: yards in California ask a median $61, while Indiana yards ask $163, 167% 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 Honda Pilot starter cost?
Asking prices for a used Honda Pilot 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 62% premium over grade-C stock, with grade-A medians at $105.
Fitment variant moves the price more than most buyers expect. The most affordable variant we track, 6 speed (Denso), lists at a $56 median, while 9 speed (Mitsuba) commands $105, a 88% 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 $50, while 2019 tops the table at $161. Year-level pages linked in the table above break each one down by grade and variant.
Against comparable vehicles, the Honda Pilot sits 30% below the Ford F150 ($126), 21% below the Mercedes E Class ($111), and 30% below the Mercedes S Class ($125) 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.
