How oil is poured into the gearbox of the Lada grant. We change the oil in the gearbox lada grant with a cable drive with our own hands

Change the oil in the gearbox Lada Granta from cable drive do it yourself

Since 2013, almost all VAZ front-wheel drive vehicles have been equipped with a cable box. In Grant sedans, it replaced the less reliable unit, designated as "2190". In addition to the fact that the drive became a cable, there were other changes. New box called "VAZ-2181", and the volume of its crankcase has been reduced from 3.3 to 2.3 liters. Here it is considered how to change the oil in the Lada Granta gearbox with a cable drive.

A rare case: the box "2181" began to howl at a run of 800 km. The confirmation is on the video, and the problem was solved by changing the oil.

Regulations for changing the oil in the gearbox from AvtoVAZ

It is necessary to change the oil in the checkpoint-2181 in one case - if the mileage has exceeded 200,000 km. In theory, the entire service life of the car is indicated here, and the numbers are taken from the regulations.

Regulations for changing the oil in the gearbox from AvtoVAZ

It seems that everything is there for filling oil

Even the regulations do not say. Such checks are unnecessary, and therefore there is no diagnostic dipstick in the crankcase design. Three details will be important to us:

Drain plug (key "17");
Filling plug and hole for level control;
Reverse switch.

Be aware that the "Standard" configuration always includes the "2190" box. The rule is fulfilled for new cars produced after 2013.

What kind of oil is filled in the checkpoint from the factory?

From the factory, the oil in the Lada Granta checkpoint can be as follows:

TATNEFT TRANSLUX 75W85;
ROSNEFT KINETIC SERVICE 75W85.

Each of the materials is classified as GL-4. Recall that we were talking about a box "2181", the crankcase volume of which is 2.3 liters.

The filling volume can be 2.1 or 2.2 liters.

Preparing for replacement

First, the box needs to be warmed up. Then the car is placed on a pit, it is stopped and one plug is tried to unscrew. We are talking about a control plug (key "17").

View from under the crankcase protection

If nothing works with the plug, you will have to change the oil without control. This is no longer good. Try unscrewing the switch located on the top of the crankcase.

The volume of oil in the Lada Granta gearbox is known to everyone - it is 2.3 liters. But the replacement is still better done with control. Filling is carried out either through a control hole or through a switch hole. Access to the latter closes the filter.

Filter housing operation

First disconnect the negative terminal (key 10). Then the usual phillips screwdriver you can unscrew the fastening screws.

First two dismantling steps

The thin clamp that secures the expansion tank hose is also removed (see photo).

Down with all terminal blocks!

The filter housing can be tilted to the side for the final step. It is not necessary to disconnect it from the corrugation.

If no quality class is specified, the material complies with GL-4 standards.

The quality class "GL-5" has its own characteristics. Gears are better retained with material in this class than synchronizers.

We focus on temperature

When choosing oil for the box, use the table:

Range "-12 - +50 Gr. Ts " - 85W90
"-26 - +45" - 80W90
"-26 - +35" - 80W85
"-40 - +35" - 75W80 or 75W85
"-40 - +45" - 75W90

The viscosity grade is indicated on the right.

Below are the designations used by AvtoVAZ:

21230-1701326-00 - turnkey plug "17"
21900-3710410-00 - reverse switch
21080-3512115-00 - washer under the switch

By the way, the shops define the washer as the gasket for the pressure regulator plug. Imported analogs cannot be found.

List of common mistakes

They warm the box by pushing gas to the floor and standing in neutral. The result is that the engine deteriorates.
The oil is drained, and then it is determined that the filling hole cannot be opened.
The washer is made of copper. Try not to lose it.

Lada Granta is systematically becoming one of the most beloved and popular vehicles among the line from AvtoVAZ. But in order for the operation to be long and comfortable, it is necessary to monitor all the vital units of your iron horse, and in particular with oil in the checkpoint. We will write about how to choose the right transmission oil for manual transmissions and automatic transmissions on Lada Granta below in our article.

Refueling volumes from the instructions for the car

How often should you change the oil?

This question is asked by many Grant owners. The answer is simple and lies in service book your car.

Old oil from the checkpoint Grants on the run of 50,000 km

According to the manual, oil in mechanical box should be changed every 70,000 kilometers or after 5 years of operation, whichever comes first.

With an automatic transmission, the situation is different, the manufacturer assures that transmission fluid, poured there, is designed for the entire period of use of the car. However, as follows from practice, it is necessary to change the oil there, at least after 80,000-100,000 kilometers, or 5-7 years of operation.

Which oil to choose?

Referring to the same vehicle manual, you can find out what to replace in mechanical transmission the manufacturer recommends a semi-synthetic engine oil Lukoil TM-4 75W-90 GL-4 (The viscosity class may vary depending on the region in which the car is operated).

Also, some analogues were certified:

Kinetic (Rosneft) 80W-85.
Translux (Tatneft) TM 4-12 - 75W-85.
Trans KP (NovOil) 80W-85.
Shell Spirax S5 ATE 75W-90.
TNK Trans KP SUPER 75w-90.

One of the most common gearbox oil options is TNK Trans KP SUPER 75w-90

Please note that the viscosity grade of each brand may also vary depending on the weather conditions in the region of use of the vehicle.

Fill in new oil

FROM automatic gearbox everything is stricter, here the manufacturer has established rigid frameworks and urges to adhere only to them. Oil filled from the factory Genuine EJ-1 ATF* or Nissan ATF Matic-S; which should be filled during subsequent replacement.

* The oil manufacturer is JX Nippon Oil and Energy Corporation.

How much oil will it take to change?

Carter manual transmission holds - 3.1-3.3 liters of oil, and about 5.0-5.3 liters in the machine.

Output.

Now that you know which oil to choose for your Grants, you can proceed directly to the replacement. It's good that changing the oil in a manual transmission and an automatic transmission with your own hands is not a big deal today.

Required: key "17", transmission oil, funnel, hose, container of at least 4 liters., rags, drive the car to inspection pit and warm up the checkpoint ( better replacement oil after a long trip).

The procedure for changing the oil at the checkpoint Grants:

Clean the area around the drain hole on the transmission housing. The volume of oil in the Grants checkpoint is about 3.1-3.5 liters, so we substitute a container of at least 4 liters under the drain hole. Unscrew the drain plug using a 17 wrench.
Drain the transmission oil into a container, then screw the plug.
Pour new oil into the gearbox by inserting the hose instead of the dipstick into the hole in the box.

Checking the oil at the checkpoint Grants should be done every 15 thousand km. Level check transmission oil should be performed on a cooled gearbox, the engine turned off, and the car should be strictly horizontal. For convenience, you may need to remove air filter engine. To find out how much oil is in the Grants box you should:

pull out the dipstick (oil level indicator)
wipe the dipstick with a rag and insert it back into the crankcase hole until it stops
pull out the dipstick again and check the level.

The oil level in the Grants gearbox must be between the "MIN" and "MAX" marks on the indicator.

Oil change in automatic transmission Grants

Required: wrench "10", ring wrench "19", hexagon "5", new transmission oil, lint-free paper, empty container and drive the vehicle onto a lift.

When to change the oil in the automatic transmission Grants? The oil used in the automatic transmission Grants does not require service changes, since its high performance characteristics provide normal work boxes during the entire established service life of the car. Thus, on Lada Granta with an "automatic" oil change is made only when repairing the box, replacing oil seals and gaskets, removing wheel drives, etc. Reuse of gear oil is not allowed!

Important! Wipe all parts (drain hole, gaskets, dipstick, etc.) with lint-free paper. Even the smallest foreign particles getting inside the box can clog the throttle holes and lead to a violation of the automatic transmission algorithm or its complete failure.
To drain oil from automatic transmission Grants required:

Unscrew drain plug (# 2) and overflow pipe (# 3) using a 19 "O-ring wrench and a 5" Allen key.
Drain the oil into an empty container, reinstall the overflow plug, and then screw the drain plug with a new O-ring.
The volume of oil in the automatic transmission Grants is about 1 liter. We remove the dipstick from the automatic transmission and fill it through the hole about 1 liter. new transmission oil.

Checking the oil in the box machine grants should be carried out on a warm engine (at an air temperature of 20C, it takes about 10 minutes to drive the oil to a temperature of 50-80C). Park the vehicle on a level surface, then:

with the engine running, set the gearbox lever from position "P" to "1".
switch from position "1" to "P", holding the lever for 5 seconds in each intermediate position.
remove the dipstick, wipe it and reinsert it into the automatic transmission until it stops.
remove the dipstick again and check the transmission oil level, which should be within range "A" for hot oil.
add oil if necessary.

ATTENTION!

insufficient oil level in the automatic transmission Grants can lead to air suction in the oil pump.
excessive oil level in the automatic transmission can lead to a car fire!
