How much does a used Ford Explorer turbocharger cost?
Expect to pay $50–$1,551 for a used Ford Explorer turbocharger; the median listing asks $295. That figure comes from 1,266 priced salvage-yard listings tracked by our index.

Fitment variant moves the price more than most buyers expect. The most affordable variant we track, 2.7L, lists at a $331 median, while 3.0L commands $1,007, a 204% 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 $200, while 2026 tops the table at $450. Parts from 2010–2019 are interchangeable, so if the 2016 fits your vehicle, it offers the best value across 10 compatible years.

Buying a used turbocharger: what to check
- Check shaft play. Any detectable radial movement means the bearing is worn.
- Ask for donor mileage and oil-change history if available; oil starvation kills turbos.
- Inspect the compressor wheel for chipped blades from debris ingestion.
- Budget for new oil feed and return lines. Reusing clogged lines destroys replacement turbos.
