Where the Acura TLX transmission is listed
We found priced Acura TLX transmission listings at 325 salvage yards across 38 states. California supplies the most, with 345 listings (25% of the total) from 42 yards. Location matters: yards in Minnesota ask a median $449, while Michigan yards ask $1,050, 134% 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 TLX transmission cost?
Asking prices for a used Acura TLX transmission 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 173% premium over grade-C stock, with grade-A medians at $750.
Model year matters too: 2015 units carry the lowest median at $550, while 2025 tops the table at $1,348. 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 Acura TLX sits 3% below the Ram 1500 ($705), 73% below the Chevy Silverado 1500 ($2,548), and 67% below the Ford F150 ($2,060) for the same part. The “similar vehicles” cards below open each comparison guide.
Buying a used transmission: what to check
- Ask for the donor mileage. Under 80K miles leaves significantly more service life.
- Confirm the torque converter is included with automatics; most yards include it, but verify.
- Match engine and drivetrain exactly. A CVT from a base trim won't fit a manual sport trim.
- Ask if the unit was test-driven or fluid-inspected before the donor was dismantled.
- Plan a fluid and filter change at install. Old fluid in a good unit causes avoidable failures.
