THE GENERAL DATA

Replacement of oil and the oil filter in the engine

Oil replacement in the engine should be made depending on two factors: sizes of run of the car and длительнос ти oil uses in the engine. It is caused by that properties of oil worsen not only at engine work while in service the car, but also because of natural ageing of oil. At car operation in the difficult conditions connected with frequent start-up of the cold engine or prevailing movement in an intensive city transport stream with frequent stops, periodicity of replacement of engine oil and the oil filter should be reduced in comparison with specified in regulations of maintenance service of the car. The oil filter is subject to replacement on new simultaneously with oil replacement in the engine.

Periodicity of replacement of oil

Through each 10000 km of run or 6 months (through 5000 km of run or 3 months in difficult service conditions).

Volume – 3,75 l (including the oil filter).

To the difficult service conditions demanding more frequent replacement of engine oil, cases when concern:

  – Short trips range to 6 km prevail;
  – Short trips range to 16 km prevail at negative temperatures of air;
  – Trips with frequent останов ками and long work of the engine idling prevail, and also at car movement on small speed (for example, in the conditions of city movement);
  – Car operation is made in dusty district.

Check of level of oil in the engine

Take out measuring щуп from the engine and wipe its pure rags. Then insert щуп into place, having lowered it against the stop, and again take out. Oil level should be between labels the MOVE and MIN. Visually check up also oil on presence of pollution and extraneous impurity.

Oil level should not exceed label MАХ on щупе. Unduly high level of oil leads to increase in the expense of oil at the expense of burning out on charcoal fumes, замасливанию spark plugs and to the raised formation of a deposit.


At доливе oils in the Engine apply the same oil that has been filled in in the Engine at last replacement.

The prevention

Check of level of oil in the engine should be spent at car parking on a horizontal equal platform (before engine start).
If the Engine works, muffle it and wait approximately 5 minutes before checking oil level. This pause is necessary that oil has flown down in the pallet картера the engine.

Long and frequent contacts of open sites of a body to the fulfilled engine oil can lead to various skin diseases, including дерматит and malignant tumours of a skin. Therefore it is necessary to avoid excessive contacts to oil and after work carefully to wash off from a pollution skin.
