Replacement of impellent oil and the filter

Frequent replacement of oil and the filter — the most important preventive procedure which can be executed the owner. In process of use impellent oil becomes polluted and less viscous that conducts to premature deterioration of the engine.

CHECK

1. Before to begin this procedure, prepare all necessary tools and materials, and also rags and old newspapers to wipe the spilt drops. It is better, that impellent oil was warm, it will allow to merge faster it and to remove with oil of more deposit. At work under the car do not concern hot parts of the engine. To protect itself from possible hit of oil on a skin, work in gloves (address to an accompanying illustration). 2. Cock a manual brake, then поддомкратьте a forward part of the car and establish it on axial props. Turn away screws of fastening and remove from below the engine a plastic protective cover. 3. Uncover маслоналивного apertures. 4. By means of a wrench ослабьте a drain stopper approximately on a turn floor. Place the drain container under a drain stopper and turn away it completely (address to an accompanying illustration). Remove a sealing washer. 5. Allow to oil to flow down. Consider that probably it is required to move the container when flowing down oil turns to a thin stream. 6. After oil has flown down, wipe a drain stopper and a sealing lining a pure fabric. Examine a sealing lining and replace it if it is damaged or worn out. Clear area round a drain aperture and establish a stopper together with a lining. Reliably tighten a stopper. 7. Move the container under the oil filter which is on a forward part of the block of cylinders. 8. Use the special tool (address to illustrations) to weaken the filter, then turn on his hand. Merge oil from the filter in the container. 9. Use a pure fabric to remove all oil and the dirt which has settled round a place of fastening of the filter on the engine. If the rubber sealing ring of the filter remains on the engine, accurately remove it. 10. Take the new filter, grease with pure oil its sealing ring and establish the filter on the engine. Tighten the filter manually — do not use any tools (address to an accompanying illustration). 11. Establish a protective cover and reliably tighten fastening screws. Remove the churned butter and all tools from under the car, then lower the car on the earth. 12. Fill in oil of the necessary grade and type in the engine through a bulk aperture in a cam-shaft cover. At first pour in half of the necessary volume of oil and wait some minutes to allow to oil to flow down in the pallet. Add oil in the small portions while its level will not reach the bottom label on measuring probeе, then add still approximately 1 l that level has risen to the top label probeа. 13. Start the engine, allow to it to work within several minutes and check up it on leaks round consolidation of the oil filter and a drain stopper of the pallet. Notice that the warning lamp of low pressure of oil can go out with a delay in some seconds necessary that oil has filled all corresponding channels and the new oil filter. 14. On diesel models with turbocharger before to start the engine, execute following procedures: a) Disconnect electroconducting from the valve отсечки fuel on the fuel pump and isolate a socket. b) Check up the engine with a starter while the control lamp of pressure of oil will not go out (it can occupy some seconds). Connect electroconducting to the valve отсечки fuel, then start the engine. d) With the engine idling, check up oil турбокомпрессора and connecting муфты a cooling liquid on presence of leaks. 15. Muffle the engine and wait some minutes that oil has flown down in the pallet. Repeatedly check up level and add oil as required.
