How much can you make parting out a Honda Odyssey 2011-2017?

Parting out a Honda Odyssey (2011-2017) is a steady, no-guesswork play: a fourth-generation van takes home roughly $5,777 in the parts worth pulling, after marketplace fees, before your own labor and freight. The Odyssey is one of the most common minivans on the road, so the donors are everywhere and the buyers - families keeping a high-mileage van alive - are everywhere too. This is the fourth-generation Odyssey (2011-2017), not the 2018-up fifth generation, so the body parts do not interchange with the newer van. The nice part: every Odyssey in this range used the same 3.5L V6, so there is no engine lottery. This is the full Honda Odyssey part-out value breakdown: what each major part sells for, why the engine leads, and how the minivan-only parts add up.

Parting out a Honda Odyssey 2011-2017: the top parts

A few majors carry most of the part-out value. These are real used-market prices for the fourth-generation Odyssey, ranked by take-home - your own labor, packing, and freight come off on top:

At a glance: estimated parts take-home $5,777+ · top part engine at $1,892 · 16+ parts priced · prices updated Aug 2026 · years 2011 - 2017 · fourth generation · body minivan, one 3.5L V6. The “$5,777+” is the take-home across every part worth pulling, not just the five above - the top 5 are shown here, and 11 more sit behind them.

What each part is worth when parting out a Honda Odyssey

The table is the summary. The money is in reading it correctly, part by part.

Engine - the deal on the van. It lists around $1,892 and takes home about $1,641 after the marketplace fee - by a wide margin the most valuable part here, on a deep 194-listing sample. The range ($1,494 to $2,995) tracks mileage and condition, not engine choice, because there is only one: the 3.5L V6 (J35). That makes the Odyssey engine one of the easiest to price in the class - no turbo-versus-base guesswork, just read the odometer. Buyers do watch the miles, so a clean, lower-mileage V6 is worth quoting at the top of the range.

Transmission - the firm second. The transmission takes home about $905 on a deep 192-listing sample, a steady, high-confidence number. These vans all run a 6-speed (or the earlier 5-speed) automatic behind the V6, so it is a reliable, easy-to-verify part. It is a distant second to the engine, but one of the most dependable figures on the van.

Liftgate, hood, and front door - the body tier. The liftgate assembly is a genuine top-3 part here, keeping about $861 on 57 listings - a minivan takes plenty of rear-end damage, and the power liftgate on the higher trims is a common replacement. The hood keeps about $527 on 44 listings and the front door about $446 on a deep 135-listing sample. Liftgates and hoods are bulky, so freight decides the real net on those two.

One engine, one driveline - simpler to price than most

Most of the vehicles in this series make you identify the engine before you can quote it. The Odyssey does not: every 2011 - 2017 Odyssey used the 3.5L V6, front-wheel drive, with an automatic transmission. That removes the single biggest pricing mistake - selling the wrong engine - and it makes the driveline numbers above unusually steady. The one thing to check is mileage: the V6 has a known reputation on high-mileage examples, so buyers price by the odometer. Read the miles off the VIN and the dash before you quote.

The full picture: 16+ parts, not 5

The five above are the headline, but they are not the whole van. 16-plus parts are worth pulling on a 2011 - 2017 Odyssey - the top 5 by take-home, plus 11 more that fill in the margin. The minivan-only parts matter here: the power sliding doors are valuable and specific to the van, the third-row and second-row seats (including the fold-flat and removable middle seats) sell to families restoring interiors, and then the usual headlights and tail lights, the infotainment and rear entertainment, wheels, mirrors, bumpers, and the small mechanical parts. On a van this common the long tail moves fast, because there are so many donors and so many buyers for the common parts.

Trims change which parts a van has - and what they sell for

Trim decides the hardware: lighting, wheels, seats, and audio all differ by trim, and so do their prices. This generation ran LX, EX, EX-L, Touring, and the top Touring Elite - and they are not the same donor. A Touring Elite carries premium lighting, a power liftgate, the ultra-wide rear entertainment screen, upgraded audio, and leather that an LX does not; its parts sell for more. Read the trim off the VIN before you price the trim-specific parts, because an LX tail light and a Touring Elite tail light are different money.

The small parts only pay in volume

The alternator, starter, and A/C compressor all list under about $135 apiece. They are worth pulling only if you move them in volume - one or two at a time, the labor to pull, test, photograph, and ship eats the margin. On a van this common the upside is that buyers are always searching, so the small parts move fast if you list them well; the downside is that everyone else has them too, so price to the market. This is where a small operation quietly loses hours: the parts feel like money on the shelf, but they only pay if your listing and fulfillment are fast enough to move them at scale.

Get the exact number for your VIN before you buy

Everything above is the generation average. The van in front of you is a specific trim and mileage, with specific damage - so the real part-out value is specific too. That is what Pre-bid ROI gives you: paste the VIN and your max bid, edit the projected parts list to match what is intact on the lot, and it returns resale revenue from real used-market prices, minus marketplace fees, transport, and your bid - the net profit, a days-to-sell read per part, and a risk score. It works the same for Copart, IAA, and private buys, and it does not scrape the auction - you enter the price. Decoding the van is free: start with the free VIN decoder, then run the full profit number in reParta.
