Market analysis

How much does a used Mercedes GLA Class strut cost?

Asking prices for a used Mercedes GLA Class strut 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 97% premium over grade-B stock, with grade-A medians at $197.

Fitment variant moves the price more than most buyers expect. The most affordable variant we track, 247 Type, (front), GLA250, w/o adaptive suspension; LH, lists at a $135 median, while 247 Type, (front), GLA45, LH commands $484, a 259% 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 $90, while 2021 tops the table at $265. Parts from 2015–2020 are interchangeable, so if the 2015 fits your vehicle, it offers the best value across 6 compatible years.

Against comparable vehicles, the Mercedes GLA Class sits 47% below the Mercedes S Class ($350), 96% above the Jeep Compass ($95), and 55% above the Ford Explorer ($120) for the same part. The “similar vehicles” cards below open each comparison guide.

Buying a used strut: what to check

  1. Buy struts in pairs. Mixing wear levels ruins handling and tire wear.
  2. Check for oil streaks on the strut body, the sign of a blown seal.
  3. Confirm sport vs base suspension. Spring rates and heights differ.
  4. Factor in new mounts and bearings; reusing old ones wastes the labor.
