Market analysis

How much does a used Mercedes GLA Class starter cost?

Asking prices for a used Mercedes GLA Class 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.

Model year matters too: 2016 units carry the lowest median at $55, while 2025 tops the table at $222. Parts from 2014–2018 are interchangeable, so if the 2016 fits your vehicle, it offers the best value across 5 compatible years.

Against comparable vehicles, the Mercedes GLA Class sits 25% below the Ford F150 ($120), 28% below the Mercedes S Class ($125), and 6% above the Dodge Challenger ($85) for the same part. The “similar vehicles” cards below open each comparison guide.

Buying a used starter: what to check

  1. Ask if the unit was bench-tested. Starters are cheap to test and yards that do will say so.
  2. Match the flywheel tooth count and mounting bolt pattern to your engine code.
  3. Check the solenoid connector style; mid-year changes are common.
  4. A remanufactured unit with warranty is sometimes only slightly more than used, so compare both.
