Market analysis

How much does a used Chevy Colorado transmission cost?

Based on 1,175 listings, a used transmission for the Chevy Colorado runs $2,040 at the median, ranging $150–$5,300. That figure comes from 1,175 priced salvage-yard listings tracked by our index. Condition matters: grade-A units (lowest mileage, best condition) carry roughly a 74% premium over grade-C stock, with grade-A medians at $2,085.

Fitment variant moves the price more than most buyers expect. The most affordable variant we track, (AT), 4x2, lists at a $2,235 median, while (AT), 4x4 commands $2,295, a 3% gap inside the same part category. Confirm which variant your VIN requires before comparing quotes.

Model year matters too: 2021 units carry the lowest median at $1,540, while 2020 tops the table at $2,281. Parts from 2020–2022 are interchangeable, so if the 2021 fits your vehicle, it offers the best value across 3 compatible years.

Buying a used transmission: what to check

  1. Ask for the donor mileage. Under 80K miles leaves significantly more service life.
  2. Confirm the torque converter is included with automatics; most yards include it, but verify.
  3. Match engine and drivetrain exactly. A CVT from a base trim won't fit a manual sport trim.
  4. Ask if the unit was test-driven or fluid-inspected before the donor was dismantled.
  5. Plan a fluid and filter change at install. Old fluid in a good unit causes avoidable failures.
