What are LKQ ZIP tiers?
LKQ-sourced used engines and transmissions on
Expedia Parts are grouped by your ZIP code. We pull many regional listings, compute average price and mileage, then surface up to three tier offers per part type.
The three tiers
- **Best Deal** — lower mileage and lower cost versus the ZIP market average
- **On a Budget** — higher mileage and lower cost (budget-friendly)
- **Most Reliable** — lower mileage and higher cost (quality-focused used)
Tier labels appear on product photos and in search tags. Displayed price and mileage are ZIP-market averages for that tier, not every raw supplier row.
How to shop
