Where the Lexus IS350 transmission is listed

Market analysis

How much does a used Lexus IS350 transmission cost?

Asking prices for a used Lexus IS350 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 61% premium over grade-C stock, with grade-A medians at $780.

Model year matters too: 2016 units carry the lowest median at $500, while 2023 tops the table at $1,500. Parts from 2013–2020 are interchangeable, so if the 2016 fits your vehicle, it offers the best value across 7 compatible years.

Against comparable vehicles, the Lexus IS350 sits 6% above the Ram 1500 ($705), 71% below the Chevy Silverado 1500 ($2,548), and 64% 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

  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.
