The main task of the oil in the gearbox is to minimize the wear of the gears, in other words, to increase their service life. Low quality lubricants, as well as untimely replacement, adversely affects the condition of the parts.

The replacement frequency is on average 50 thousand kilometers for cars with a manual gearbox, and 30 thousand for an automatic one.

It is necessary to change the oil more often on vehicles that are operated in difficult conditions, this may include:

• Off-road driving;
• Constant maximum load of the vehicle;
• Frequent towing of cars or trailers.

In a new car, it is recommended to replace after the first 2-3 thousand mileage. The fact is that at the initial stage of work, new units undergo the so-called "lapping", which is characterized by increased formation of wear products.

Many car owners change the gearbox oil at the same time as the manual transmission, since both components use transmission fluid.

Be sure to check the level and condition of the oil in the gearboxes after buying a car on secondary market. Usually, before selling, if owners change lubricants, then only in those places where they can be easily checked. Gearboxes are not one of them.

Checking the level and condition of the oil in the gearbox

The level and condition of the oil in the gearbox is checked "for cold", when all the liquid is collected in the crankcase.

The oil should be at the level of the filler hole, 2-5 millimeters lower. To check, the filler plug is unscrewed and the level is recognized using a stick, wire, finger, or other improvised means. The condition can be checked here by taking a small amount of liquid with a syringe and tube.

You can also assess the condition of the lubricant by unscrewing for a few seconds drain plug. Pre-tighten the filler, so the oil will flow much more slowly. If the car has stood for several hours before this, all foreign particles will settle in the crankcase, and you will get a clearer idea of ​​\u200b\u200bthe condition of the oil.

The presence of metal particles in the mining indicates that the gearbox components have a high degree of wear, and serious repairs and replacement of parts may soon be needed.

What and how much to pour

It is best to pour into the gearbox transmission oil recommended by the manufacturer. The information is indicated in the technical documentation, and it is very important to focus on compliance with the class according to the API.

Almost all modern automakers require the use of at least GL-4 and GL-5 oils in their transmissions, gearboxes and transfer cases, which contain extreme pressure and other additives and are adapted to work in the most difficult conditions.

If you do not know what kind of oil and how much is poured into the gearbox of your machine, look for it in the table. We have collected information on tolerances for various vehicles from a variety of available sources.

If the car has 2 or 3 bridges, then the total amount of liquid is indicated.

Change of oil

Replacement is best done after a short trip (5-10 kilometers). This will allow the oil in the gearbox to warm up and become less viscous.

The car must be in a horizontal position, it is most convenient to work in a viewing hole, on a flyover or using a lift. This will make it easier to get to the gearbox. Use a wire brush to clean the surface around the filler and drain holes.

It will not be superfluous to pay attention to the condition of the oil seals, when worn, oil can flow out of the gearbox. If smudges are visible in the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe seals, it is also better to change them immediately.

One of the main elements of the "classic" VAZ-2107 is the rear axle gearbox. This is a very complex part of the system that takes rotation crankshaft engine and transfers it to the rear wheels. The rear axle itself stands on special rods, with the help of which it is connected to the car body.

The internal elements of the gearbox need constant and high-quality lubrication. To do this, it has a special plug through which you can pump out the old and pump in new gear oil. Regular motor oil will not work. It's easy to explain. Gearbox parts operate under conditions of large temperature differences, as well as maximum loads. Under such conditions, standard performance characteristics engine oil is not enough.

Symptoms

The terms for changing the gear oil in the rear axle gearbox must be indicated in the instructions vehicle. But during operation, a number of symptoms may appear that will make the replacement much faster:

In the process of movement, an uncharacteristic whistle or gearbox noise appears. At the same time, it can disturb both when a load is applied to the gearbox, and without it;

There is a strong knock in the knot;

After a long parking, oil leaks are visible under the car (in the area where the gearbox was located);

On examination, obvious oily spots are visible.

If any of these symptoms appear, it may be necessary to check the oil level, and subsequently change it.

Why change the oil?

We have already mentioned that oil rear gear works constantly, and the active rotation of the gears main couple leads to a significant increase in temperature inside the node. In some cases, this parameter can reach 130-150 degrees Celsius. High temperatures and contact with air lead to faster oxidation of hydrocarbons (they are the basis of most mineral oils).

What is the result? The oxidation process is aggravated all the time, the lubricating composition becomes even more contaminated, and then clots and powerful deposits form. But that's not all. Over time, the viscosity of the oil deteriorates significantly, and its performance approaches a critical level. One fine day, gear oil may be a useless fluid in your car's gearbox.

Do not forget that it is not possible to completely close the access of dust and dirt. Various debris inevitably gets inside and pollutes the system. Wear products also contribute, which are not removed anywhere and continue to be in the oil. In such a situation, all nodes experience maximum loads- both bearings and gears, and oil seals.

What happens? After a few years, or even months of operation, gear oil loses its properties. It is saturated with various garbage, oxidized and decomposed. There is only one way out in such a situation - replacement.

When to change?

Each manufacturer is very vague when it comes to indicating the optimal oil change interval, specifying that a lot depends on the operating conditions of the car. Ideal conditions include driving at medium speed on roads with a normal surface and without additional load (for example, a trailer).

In turn, frequent stops, short trips, frequent excessive speeding, operation in extreme conditions, transportation of heavy loads, trips on dirty and dusty roads - these and a number of other factors will inevitably reduce the overall life of the transmission oil and bring the day of its replacement closer. .

Based on the mileage, it is recommended to change the oil in the gearbox every 20-30 thousand kilometers. In some cases, an unscheduled replacement may be necessary, for example, when buying a used car, after the completion of the break-in of the car, as well as upon completion overhaul transmission. Believe me, such foresight, although it will lead to additional costs, will never be superfluous.

Oil change: step by step

So, you have decided on the need to change the oil in the VAZ-2107 gearbox. To do everything right, proceed in the following sequence:

1. Drive the car into a pit or overpass, because you will need access from below. At the same time, keep in mind that it is better to change the oil on a warm car after a short trip (in this case, the oil will drain better).
2. Prepare everything you need for work - a container (for draining old oil), new oil, a hexagon on "12", a spanner on "17".
3. Unscrew the drain plug (it is located directly at the bottom of the crankcase) and place a container under the drain oil. Wait until all the oil has left the gearbox cavity. At the time of unscrewing, be careful, because the temperature of the lubricant can reach 90-100 degrees Celsius.
4. Flush the gearbox. This is especially necessary if the old oil was black and heavily contaminated with various debris. Flushing should be carried out with a composition having the highest possible viscosity.

1. Pour about a liter of flushing oil into the gearbox, jack up the rear wheel of the car and start the car. Turn on the first speed and let the car “ride” like this for one to two minutes. After that, turn off the engine and drain the flushing compound.
2. Now, using a special syringe, pump new gear oil into the assembly. It's hard to go wrong with the level. Oil must be poured along the lower edge of the neck, that is, until the maximum filling. After that, you can twist the cork.
3. At the end of the work, be sure to clean the breather, which is necessary to reduce excess pressure in the gearbox. That's all.

Conclusion

Many motorists underestimate the importance of timely replacement oil in the rear axle gearbox. But in vain, because the result of such negligence may be the failure of a serious and expensive unit. Therefore, be careful in this matter, and your car will certainly thank you with its reliability. Good luck.

Lubrication (oil) is an important part where there is friction. The car is just full of places where it happens, so it just has to be oil!
It is necessary both in the engine and in the gearbox, gearboxes, shock absorbers and other parts. This article contains: the instruction “oil change in the VAZ rear axle gearbox” and the front axle too, tips on choosing oil, video, and also what needs to be done in addition to changing the oil.

Now in order:

• The choice of oil for VAZ
• Preparation for replacement and necessary tools
• rear axle
• Front axle
• Maintenance Tips

The choice of oil for VAZ

What kind of oil to fill in when the oil is being changed in the bridge on a VAZ 2107, for example?
It happens that the opinions of experts differ, but there are common points. Expensive oil is not worth pouring - a waste of money.
The choice of gear oil is a personal matter. It all depends on the preference of the owner and the price of the oil.
Mannol oil is often poured into the rear axle and it has proven itself quite well. XADO, of course, is better, but still more expensive.

As for the brand of gear oil, the most common is 75W-90.

Preparation for replacement and necessary tools

So, changing the oil in the rear axle of a VAZ 2105 or another car is most conveniently carried out in a pit or overpass. Think in advance where you can find them.
Buy oil for filling - you should take 2 liters - there will be a little left for topping up.

Advice! Before changing the oil, be sure to warm up the car by driving it for about 10 kilometers. Thus, the oil drains better.

What tool will be needed:

• Hexagon 12
• Ring wrench or head for 17 with a knob
• Oil Filling Syringe

• Container for waste oil
• Rag
• Rubber gloves to keep your hands from getting burned by the oil

As you can see, changing the oil in the VAZ 2104 bridge and other cars does not require special costs and it is quite possible to do it yourself.

Change of oil

Consider the detailed process of changing the oil in the rear axle; oil change in VAZ 21213 bridges will also be considered.

rear axle

So, we begin to change the oil, having previously prepared everything necessary and warmed up the car enough:

• First, drain the old oil. To do this, take a 12 hexagon and unscrew the drain plug.
  This is where rubber mittens or gloves come in handy. Oil, if there is, of course, will flow sharply from the rear axle to your hands.

And it will flow right into your hands, so you better warn yourself.

• After unscrewing the drain plug, substitute a container for oil. After the oil drains, clean the magnet on the plug to prevent metal chips from getting into the new oil and screw it back into the body.
• Now we fill in the oil. Unscrew with a 17 key filler plug(as in the photo). Fill the syringe with oil and fill it into the reducer.
  Oil should be filled up to the level - the holes in the filler neck.

• After reaching the desired oil level, the filler plug is screwed into place.

• Next, wipe everything with a rag and check the tightness of all threaded connections.

Note! Tighten both plugs without excessive fanaticism. Still, it will be unpleasant to pervert with repairs later.

Here, in fact, is the whole oil change in the VAZ 2105 bridge.

Front axle

On Niva and Taiga cars, in addition to the rear axle, there is also a front axle, since the cars are all-wheel drive. Note that changing the oil in the VAZ 21214 bridges is no different from changing the oil in the rear axle on other models.
The tools are the same, the tips are the same, the device is similar, and the process is identical.
First, drain the oil from the gearbox. We twist the drain plug and unscrew the filler.
Fill with oil up to the level. We control the tightness of the connections. That's it.

Many car owners do not think that the car also needs to be looked after, and not just repaired.
If you do not only change the rear axle oil of your VAZ 2106, but also take care of the car with your own hands, then repairs can be carried out much less frequently. Here are some tips for oils.

Tip 1 - Check the oil level! How often should you check? After 20,000 km of your car run, look into the rear axle. Unscrew the filler plug and check the oil level with your finger. If necessary, add oil to the level.

Tip 2 - change your oil on time! According to repair manuals, the frequency of changing the oil in the rear axle of VAZ cars is 60,000 km.
By following this advice, your gearbox will last longer.

And a little more about. The price for this operation is quite low, so in order to save time, you can pay the guys at the service station for a replacement.
By the way, some service stations provide a free oil change, when buying it in their store - pay attention.

1. Turn off the filler plug of the rear axle.
2. We substitute a container with a volume of at least 1.5 liters under the drain hole of the rear axle.
3. With a 12 mm hex wrench, unscrew the plug drain hole rear bridge.
4. Drain the oil from the rear axle of the VAZ 2107 car. The drain plug is equipped with a magnet, which attracts the wear products of the gearbox parts.
5. We clean the drain plug and install it back into the rear axle of the VAZ 2107 car.

Note
If the drained oil from the rear axle on a VAZ 2107 car is dark and metal particles are clearly visible in it, it is recommended to flush the rear axle gearbox on a VAZ 2107 car.

To flush the rear axle gearbox on a VAZ 2107 car, fill in approximately a liter of low-viscosity oil (for example, spindle oil). Posting one of rear wheels(see "VAZ 2107 car wheel - replacement"), start the engine on the VAZ 2107 car and turn on the first gear. After five minutes, turn off the engine, drain the oil from the rear axle, clean it again and wrap the drain plug.
6. Pour fresh gear oil into the rear axle to the level of the filler hole and tighten the plug.
7. We clean the breather from the outside with a brush or rags. We turn the breather cap several times to clean its channel.

What kind of oil flood at the VAZ 2107 checkpoint?

In today's article, we will help you figure out which oil is best for the VAZ 2107 gearbox and how much is needed to replace it? These questions are often asked by the owners of these domestic cars mobile, so these subtleties should know who.

Which pour oil?

The oil in the VAZ 2107 gearbox, many people fill in the one recommended by the manufacturer. These cars domestic production equipped with four five-speed gearboxes gears, which for reliable and durable operation require quality lubrication. We will deal with viscosity classes and oil groups below, but first we will consider specific brands lubricating fluids, which can flood in the box:

• UFALUBE UNITRANS 85W-90;
• LUKOIL TM-5 85W-90;

Oil groups

To choose which oil in the VAZ gearbox 2107 fill, you need to know the groups of these lubricants:

What kind of oil to fill in a vaz 2110 box.

1. GL-4. Oil in the VAZ gearbox 2107 This group contains many additives. Basically, such lubricants are used for machines with stepped gearboxes working on high speeds at low torques, as well as operated at low speeds with high torque.
2. GL-5. This oil for the VAZ 2107 gearbox is designed for the so-called hypoid gears (the gears rotate at an angle). In these models of domestic cars, the hypoid gear is located inside the gearbox, therefore, in reducer can flood only grease group GL-5. Such oil is also sometimes poured into the transmission, but only under severe operating conditions.

Viscosity grades

To select which transmission butter better for the VAZ 2107, you need to decide on the viscosity class:

1. SAE75W90. This class includes semi-synthetic or synthetic oils that are suitable for all-weather use. The lubricant can be operated within the range of 40 to 35 degrees Celsius. You can use such oils in cars that operate in the harsh conditions of our country.
2. SAE75W85. This viscosity grade is also suitable for all-weather use in a box, and the temperature for maintaining performance varies from .40 to 45 degrees.
3. SAE80W85. Oils of this viscosity boil at 35 degrees, and freeze at .30 or more.

Mineral lubricants

The most important and perhaps the only advantage of mineral oils is low price compared to synthetics and semi-synthetics. For example, a four-liter canister mineral oil in a VAZ 2107 box it costs about 400 rubles, and a similar semi-synthetic canister costs more than 1000.

The lubricant composition has good lubricating properties, so you can ride it without replacement up to 60-70 thousand kilometers. At the same time, in winter, such a lubricant hardens faster in frost and makes it difficult to start a cold engine.

Semi-synthetics and synthetics

The only drawback of such a transmission oil for the VAZ 2107 is the relatively high price compared to conventional mineral water. On average, a canister costs from 1000 to 1500 rubles. The disadvantages are limited to this, and as for the advantages, they include high-tech lubrication and the content of additives that reduce the wear of transmission elements, extending the life of the box.

The freezing point of these oils is much lower, so they are suitable for operation in severe frosts. You can release the clutch pedal a few seconds after starting power unit and the gearbox will work fine. The lubricant warms up faster and returns to normal fluidity, compared to mineral.

Some say it's synthetic butter transmission for the VAZ 2107 can squeeze out the seals and leak from the slots. This is not true, and if this really happens, this is a coincidence, and the real reason is hidden in a deliberately worn gearbox.

How much oil is required?

Many owners of domestic cars are interested not only in what kind of oil to fill in a VAZ 2107 box, but also how much is needed. It is important not only how much oil is in the box, but also how much of it will enter the transmission when replacing.

In cars with four-speed gearboxes, the gearbox contains only 1.35 liters of oil, and in the case of five-speed gearboxes, the capacity reaches 1.6 liters.
