Model-year comparison
Market analysis
Asking prices for a used Buick Regal water pump 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.
Fitment variant moves the price more than most buyers expect. The most affordable variant we track, engine mounted, 2.0L, lists at a $39 median, while firewall mounted commands $75, a 92% 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 $39, while 2018 tops the table at $75. Parts from 2007–2020 are interchangeable, so if the 2016 fits your vehicle, it offers the best value across 14 compatible years.
Against comparable vehicles, the Buick Regal sits 67% below the Mercedes S Class ($150), 68% below the Mercedes GLE Class ($158), and 65% below the Mercedes E Class ($144) for the same part. The “similar vehicles” cards below open each comparison guide.
