How much does a used Nissan Altima starter cost?
A used Nissan Altima starter costs between $25 and $343, with a median asking price of $75. That figure comes from 640 priced salvage-yard listings tracked by our index. Condition matters: grade-A units (lowest mileage, best condition) carry roughly a 15% premium over grade-C stock, with grade-A medians at $75.
Fitment variant moves the price more than most buyers expect. The most affordable variant we track, 2.5L, lists at a $65 median, while 2.0L commands $93, a 43% gap inside the same part category. Confirm which variant your VIN requires before comparing quotes.
Model year matters too: 2016 units carry the lowest median at $65, while 2019 tops the table at $110. Parts from 2013–2020 are interchangeable, so if the 2016 fits your vehicle, it offers the best value across 8 compatible years.
Against comparable vehicles, the Nissan Altima sits 31% below the Ford F150 ($109), 13% below the GMC Sierra 1500 ($86), and 20% below the Chevy Silverado 1500 ($94) 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.
