3. Anyone who has engine protection will need to remove it. It is held on by 4 bolts, which are unscrewed with a 13mm head. To prevent the protection from falling, you will need to hold it.
4. Substitute under drain hole a container where the old oil will drain. Using a 24mm wrench, unscrew the drain plug and drain the oil into a container.

   Be careful! The oil is hot!

5. While the oil is draining, you can unscrew oil filter. To remove it you will need a wrench with a 27mm extension.
6. It is better to clean the oil filter housing from oil and dirt. It is very important that there is no sand there.
7. We install a new oil filter along with a rubber gasket. Lubricate the gasket with oil.
8. When all the oil has drained, screw the drain plug back in, having first replaced the gasket on it.
9. We screw the oil filter cap back on, without using too much force.

   The oil filter housing is made of plastic and may crack if over-tightened.

10. Fill in new oil. Approximately 3.2 liters are poured.
11. Check the oil level and add if necessary.

Did they offer me a different specification in connection with this? Someone switched to another brand and writes that there is no consumption. I read the oil test in ZR, they write from Total high consumption on fumes. Won't this fumes kill the catalyst? Dear professionals, I ask for help in selecting an alternative motor oil to Total for a similar car with the same engine.

There is an intention to “jump” from Total. It feels like it's going to burn a lot. Attached are the PSA technical notes. Of course, PSA recommends Total, but does not prohibit the use of oils from other manufacturers that meet the tolerances. Use only one of the following oils:. On vehicles with diesel engines equipped with a particulate filter, it is recommended to use one of the following oils: TOTAL ACTIVA INEO ECS. TOTAL QUARTZ INEO ECS.

TOTAL QUARTZ INEO FIRST. From the PSA regulations I can conclude that both LowSAPS and Full Ash are acceptable for my engine. Please advise what to prefer regarding ash content. I'm leaning towards the following options: Not inclined towards racing. I will also consider alternative options, but in my city of Oryol there is a Shell distributor. IN service book You have a recommended viscosity. But they already wrote on the forum that if the oil does not leave, the catalyst is safe.

Is low-ash LowSAPS indicated with such a catalyst? Total is definitely going somewhere. Either it burns out, or through the rings and longer to be released into the catalyst. If I hadn’t found Tatneft, I would have filled it with Lukoil.. Looks like PSA took over VAG’s experience in producing oil burners.. Oil: Liquid Molly, Lukoil, Shell. Hello everyone, can you give me some advice guys? There is an equivalent PETRO-CANADA SUPREME SYNTHETIC for these engines. Don't have an account yet? I forgot my password.

In Russia, the assembly of Citroen C4 cars began in 2010. Except updated body and improved equipment of the machine, the model received and updated equipment with two HDi diesel engines with engines of 1.6 and 2.0 liters. In our particular case, we will consider changing the oil on a Citroen C4 with a 1.6 gasoline engine and a mileage of 130,000 km.

When to change the oil. Changing engine oil on Citroen C4 with gasoline engines occurs every 20,000 km, and on diesel engines - every 10,000 km.

What kind of oil to fill in. Depends on the year of manufacture of the car, engine type and its volume. Since the French automaker Citroen has been working in close cooperation with the Total company since the 60s, most oils are developed for engines of this company. The following is a list of recommended oils for Citroen C4:

• TOTAL QUARTZ INEO FIRST 0W30 oil is suitable for engines produced since 2012 such as: gasoline engine 1.6 VTi, 1.6 THP, diesel engine 1.6 HDi, 2.0 HDi (since 2012);
• TOTAL QUARTZ 9000 5W40 oil is recommended for gasoline engines 1.4 VTi, 1.6 VTi and 2.0 16V;
• TOTAL QUARTZ INEO ECS 5W-30 oil for gasoline engines 1.4 VTi and 1.6 16V/VTi and diesel engines 2.0 HDi (until 2015), 1.6 HDi 16V.

How much oil to fill. For gasoline engines 1.4 VTi and 1.6 VTi (including filter) you will need 4.25 liters of new oil, for 2.0 VTi - 5.5 liters, and for diesel engines (including filter) 1.6 HDi - 3.75 liters, 2.0 HDi - 5 ,3 l.

To correctly determine the type of engine oil for your car, you need to refer to the technical data sheet for it and select the right one, according to the specified specifications.

The more often the oil is checked and changed, the better. It is recommended to check the oil level every 3000 km. To most accurately determine the result, it is worth taking level measurements on a cold engine before starting. More or less approximate data can be obtained immediately after turning off the engine; the oil dipstick shows underestimated data, since the oil does not have time to drain to the bottom of the crankcase.

Under unfavorable operating conditions, the oil level must be checked more often than usual. These conditions include:

• towing another vehicle or trailer;
• trips in mountainous areas;
• driving at high speed;
• maximum or minimum temperature conditions: in summer above +40°C and in winter below -30°C;
• travel short distances (up to 10 km) at temperatures below -5°C.

The oil filter is replaced at the same time as the oil change.

When adding and/or changing oil, it is necessary to pour oil in accordance with quality tolerances and viscosity parameters.

Using an oil of lower quality than recommended by the manufacturer, or operating the vehicle with minimal lubrication levels, will lead to premature failure of the engine and its parts.

Adding oil above the “MAX” level on the dipstick increases its consumption and can lead to failure of engine parts. If you have experience in car repair and care, you can try to change the oil on a Citroen C4 yourself.

To change the oil on a car, you need the following tools:

• wrench “27” mm (for the oil filter cup);
• wrench “24” mm;
• ratchet and extension;
• screwdriver;
• new seal ring for the oil filter box;
• container for drainage;
• new oil filter;
• new oil.

Good luck to everyone, this morning the post office was pleased with a parcel from Germany, lately they have been arriving every week, from Italy and Romania. This was the last one in the project to restore the front struts of Citroen C5x7, Citroen C6. So everything got ready, let's go. Owning the third generation Hydro-Citroen, I encountered sweating struts on the front axle. For some time this did not bother me, until an error popped up regarding the suspension and the 90 km/h limit. I started to look into it, it turns out this is for c5x7, normal, front

Hi all. The entry is, rather, for myself so as not to forget what I bought :) So, winter has come and the issue of buying windshield washer fluid has become urgent. I don’t buy left-handers from traders along the highway, it’s more expensive for myself. I decided to try Mega-Zone. I chose Magic because... its pour point is indicated higher, as much as -24 degrees. There is also Classic, it is stated to be -20. I bought it from Autospace. Canister included with watering can. The quality of printing is normal (this is usually saved on when producing counterfeit goods). St
