Timely vehicle service provides its uninterrupted work. Systematic replacement of motor oil is an important part of car care. To do this, you can resort to the help of specialists or implement all actions yourself. How to do - read further in the article.

Replacing the oil in the VAZ engine, how often it is necessary to change the oil

Immediately it is worth saying that it is necessary to add lubricant after overcoming a certain number of kilometers. As for cars VAZ, the manufacturer advises to replace after fifteen thousand kilometers. However, in order to avoid unpleasant situations, experts recommend not to "delay" with a kilometer, but to reduce it by about twice. Accordingly, changing the engine oil after 7.5 thousand kilometers. In addition, after each replacement of lubricants, a new oil filter should be installed.

How much oil pour into the VAZ engine

To replace oil in VAZ cars, it will take about 3.5-4 liters of fluid. Therefore, experts are recommended to acquire four liters, with the possibility of a subsequent topping and a small margin.

Replacing the oil in the VAZ engine, step by step instruction

To dismantle the oil filter, use a special key. If there is no such tool in your garage, any screwdriver will suit. It is worth noting that it is most effectively replacing the oil on a preheated motor, since in another case the consistency of the lubricant is changing - the substance is made more viscous. The optimal engine temperature when replacing - 80 degrees Celsius.

So, start:

1. Park the car on flat terrain. With observation pit, place the vehicle above it.
2. When replacing the oil brand, you should rinse the motor using a special washing oil. Fill it and give the unit to work ten minutes, after which the washing liquid needs to be merged.
3. Open the hood and unscrew the plug of the fuel throat.
4. We unscrew the drain plug, which is located at the bottom of the crankcase, pre-substituting the tank for the exhaust fluid under it.
5. We are waiting for about 15 minutes while oil steals.
6. In order to not waste time, use the key to remove the spent oil filter. Before installing halfway, fill the new filter with a motor oil, which prevents T.N. Oil starvation. O-ring is mandatoryly wanted with new oil.
7. Strictly threads tighten the filter.
   
8. Now you need to spin the drain plug and pour purchased motor oil into the filler neck, but not to the maximum mark. The perfect number is three liters.
9. Wait for some time to oil glass and with the help of the probe be sure to check its level. It should be between MIN and MAX marks. With any deviations from the norm, it is necessary to add or mercy.
10. The last stage is the "run" of a car for about five minutes at idle. It will not be superfluous to re-check the oil level.

How many oil in the engine is 1.6

Well, when the vehicle is equipped with an automatic system that counts the spent oil. However, unfortunately, these computers are only in modern transport when the remaining cars released earlier require self-maintenance. The oil level should be systematically checked, and when it drops below the desired mark, immediately add it.

As for the amount of oil required, then in a 1.6-liter engine should be poured not more than 4.5 liters of lubricant material.

Oil filter, change with oil, why and what quality you need a filter

As noted above, after each replacement of the lubricant in the engine, the installation of a new oil filter is required. There is plenty of such products on the modern automotive market, so it is quite difficult to choose a really worthy product.

First of all, you should pay attention to the brand and the cost of the goods. Dimensions are equally important. In addition to original filters, there may be analogs on sale. They are cheaper and less high-quality, rather than original products.

When replacing the liquid, the new sealing ring for drain plugs is required to avoid oil leakage during the operation of the vehicle.

Property Tips: Which viscosity oil is poured into the warm and cold season

The lubricant fluid is also to be paid attention. Experienced motorists recommend buying oil viscosity 5W30. The ideal option in the winter - 5W40, because in conditions of harsh winters, the use of a strongly viscous substance is inappropriate.

Causes of increased oil consumption in the engine

1. Damage to sealing surfaces, which led to the occurrence of gaps and holes. As a result, oil can be oil in the combustion chamber.
2. The use of low-quality oil can also cause its rapid use.
3. The vehicle was not serviced for a long time, the oil did not change more than a year.
4. If the fuel burned out completely, the remaining part can "settle down" on the cylindrical walls. This will increase friction and oil consumption.
   
5. A large breakthrough of gases as a result of combustion entails the increase in pressure, which is why oil seeps through sealing gum.
6. Lubrication can occur as a result of defective or damaged seals.
7. The tubes, by which oxygen undergoes in the combustion chamber, have damage. As a result, the air in the engine comes with garbage and small particles. Such an effect is observed with poor-quality filtration of incoming oxygen. The oil covering the parts is faster consuming, and the debris quickly wears them.
8. High pressure provokes a rupture of seals. Carefully inspect the power unit. It is advisable to charge it to those skilled in the art.
