Crankshaft price varies with the vehicle, brand, and condition. As a rough guide: used runs €80-€400, reground €150-€600, and rare or performance crankshafts can climb past €1,000. New OEM crankshafts are expensive and often cost more than a complete used engine. On Parthunt24, find a crankshaft from {lowest_price}. A few things that move the crankshaft price up or down:

• Used vs reground: Used pulls cost less. Reground cranks are tested to a known standard.
• Brand: OEM tops the range; quality aftermarket sits below.
• Vehicle rarity: Common engines cheaper; rare or performance applications cost more.
• Surface condition: Polished or low-mileage cranks command a premium.
• Counterweights and balance: Balanced cranks for performance builds cost more than stock.

A correct crankshaft from a poor listing is still a risk. Once fitment checks out, look at the listing:

• Photos: Multiple clear angles of the journals, throws, and counterweights.
• Seller reputation: Ratings, reviews, and trading history.
• Compatibility info: Part numbers, applications, or cross-references.
• Included components: Bare crank, or with bearings, pulley, or sensor reluctor?
• Condition: Used, polished, or reground? Look for scoring or cracks.
• Testing: Crack-tested or measured? Tested cranks carry less risk.
• Warranty and returns: A clear policy if it doesn't fit.
• Shipping: Cranks are heavy and need secure packaging.
• Documentation: Part numbers, measurements, or proof of origin.

Once it checks out, compare prices on Parthunt24 and head to the marketplace.

Crankshaft trouble rarely sits in isolation. Some symptoms blamed on the crank come from elsewhere. Get a diagnosis first and check these:

• Camshaft: Sometimes confused with the crankshaft. Check for wear if there's noise.
• Flywheel: A worn or cracked flywheel causes vibration that mimics crank trouble.
• Connecting rod: Bearings on the rod journals fail before the crank does.
• Crankshaft position sensor: Misfires and starting issues often trace back here.
• Main bearings: Worn bearings cause knocking that sounds like crank damage.
• Timing chain or belt: A failed timing system can throw cranks out of sync.
• Crankshaft seals: Leaks can starve the crank of lubrication.
