What pouring oil into the gearbox? Oil level. Transmission oil VW which oil to choose

13.09.2020

- This is a kind of standard of quality and reliability in the field automotive Industry. It is believed that transport from the German manufacturer is the easiest in service, and its performance features Differences differ. Despite such leadership quality positions, cars from the German manufacturer may also fail. This is especially true of transmission nodes and mechanisms that are without timely and proper care Can reduce operational quality of transport. In this article, let's talk about the car " Volkswagen Polo."Let's tell me whether the oil change is needed in the MCPP" Polo Sedan ", when and how to change the spent lubricant liquid, how to replace your own hands at home.

When should I change?

Many owners of Volkswagen Polo have a question whether it is worth changing the oil in the manual transmission, since the user's manual for the vehicle says that the lubricating fluid in the box is designed for the entire period of the machine. Indeed, in the gearbox of mechanical type, the oil is not spent, if there are no defects of structures that cause lubrication leakage. However, it should be borne in mind that the operational characteristics of the components and aggregates of the machines vary depending on climatic conditions, driving manners and many factors that cannot be completely calculated by the manufacturer. In addition, the concept of "operating period" is interpreted in different ways in our country and abroad. In Germany, the operating period of the machine rarely exceeds seven years, and we can drive on the car and more than thirty years.

Manual gearbox, despite the high criteria for stability and reliability, in comparison with automatic transmission, is influenced by external factors, low-quality roads or full off-road, significantly depends on the style of control. It is necessary to regularly check the oil level in the Polo Sedan box, as well as pay attention to its quality. Factors should be indicators:

nepical for transmission nodes noises and knocks;
difficulties when switching transmissions or deterioration of manageability and machine maneuverability.

In addition, if when checking the lubrication level, it was found that it acquired an unnatural tint, has impurities or nasty smellThis signals the need to replace it. Specialists of service centers and experienced car owners recommend not less than every sixty thousand kilometers of run. If the car is operated in aggressive conditions, then the working units require more frequent maintenance, approximately every thirty thousand kilometers passed.

What kind of oil to choose?

The question of choosing an oil is no less complicated than the need for its replacement. The modern lubricant market for transmissions has a rich assortment, which causes significant difficulties when choosing a lubricant. What is better to use for fill in the transmission car "Polo Sedan" car? When choosing an oil for its car, you need to be guided, first of all, the requirements for lubrication from the manufacturer, which are set out in the instructions for the machine. The most correct option will be the purchase of original oil with the article G052512A2 from the manufacturer, however, its value exceeds the market price of high-quality analogs in more than twice.

According to the regulations for the vehicle, the oil flowed must comply with the viscosity criteria for SAE - 75W-80 and respond to qualitative standards API - GL 4 or GL 5. In this case, the oil should be only a synthetic category. As for the manufacturer of lubricant, then preference is worth posting certified famous brand, and buying goods only in official auto shops in order to avoid purchasing fake.

Stages of replacement

For a complete "Volkswagen Polo Sedan", two liters of oil, hex key for seventeen, capacitance for waste fluid, rags and syringe or funnel for refilling fluid is required. If on yours vehicle There is a mechanic, oil in the gearbox should be changed according to the following regulations:

On this replacement lubricant In the MCPP "Polo Sedan" can be considered completed. After a small routing of the car, it is necessary to check the oil level check again, as well as check the system for leakage.

Let's summarize

The transmissions "Volkswagen Polo" of a mechanical type are characterized by excellent maintainability, which allows you to serve them at home without resorting to expensive help of professionals. Following simple recommendations, even a novice car enthusiast, without experience in technical work, will be able to successfully replace the oil on its own. Follow the state of the manual transmission state, regularly control the oil level and replace it if necessary, as your safety on the road directly depends on this.

Timely replacement transmission fluid in automatic box Transmission (automatic transmission) - an integral component maintenance Car VW.

It is necessary to produce it first according to technical instructions concrete car. However, there are some recommendations, the use of which will only improve the life of your car with automatic transmission.

Menuing lubricant, as professionals recommend, should depend on the mileage, which should be no more than 60-80 thousand kilometers. It is also necessary to take into account the moment that the majority imported cars Not focused on their operation in the harsh Russian conditions. And the change of lubricant is better to produce every year, even if the mileage does not exceed 60-80 thousand kilometers, during this period of time. Change lubricating fluid will be better during the preparation of the car for the winter time of the year so that the lubricant is not thick during frosts.

The Volkswagen automaker does not set the hard time of changing technical fluids in their cars. Including the replacement of transmission fluids, the manufacturer is not regulated. However, on what mode you will use your machine, the frequency of the ATF update is also dependent, and this in turn affects the magnitude of the service life of the gearbox.

The approximate mileage, after which you need to change ATF in Volkswagen in Russia - about 60,000 kilometers. Approximately this determines the life of the oil in the box former motorists and some experts. In addition, it should be remembered that this range is determined by the manufacturer of the vehicle under the conditions of normal operation. The worse these conditions, the more often it will be necessary to shift.

What are the worst conditions mean? For example, climate (dust, snow, frost, constant temperature change, increased humidity). It may also be the overload of the motor (for example, when delivering heavy large cargo), which also does not support oil performance. As a rule, under the worst operating conditions, experts recommend the period from shift to oil change to decrease by about 30%.

Process technology

At the Volkswagen maintenance stations, use two ways to replace oil:

The easiest - Oil update or its partial replacement
Full replacement - replacement

The first method is very simple and does not require additional equipment - Through the drain hole merged the old technical fluidAnd through the filler, naturally, poured new. Benefits are that when using this method, you are largely saved for strength, means and time. Disadvantages - the old emulsion merges not all, but only 2/3. New oil is partially mixed with old.

When using a substitution method - a special apparatus is used, which, under high pressure, extrudes the old lubricant, replacing it with a new one. Benefits - full replacement liquids. Disadvantages - with an imperative application of such a method possible damage to Volkswagen automatic transmission. Also do not advise the use of this method on old cars with big mileage. Replacement transmission lubricant Complete substitution is possible due to the fact that the emulsion circulates inside the box. For full shift Lubricants The mechanic simply opens the necessary nozzles and launches a special unit that pumps the old lubricant and simultaneously pumps a new one.

After replacing the oil in Volkswagen automatic transmission, it should be regularly verified. It will not take a large amount of time, from force 2-3 minutes. But let you extend the life of your beloved car. And remember, even a slight deviation from the oil level leads to increased wear of the parts of the automatic transmission and its breakdown.

Tools and materials

First you need to find a suitable transmission fluid. It is recommended to purchase only the original ATF, for example, ESSO ATF LT 71141. Do not purchase fluid from sellers of doubt. Such a lubricant will not fully comply with the approval of the machine manufacturer, which will lead to enough operational output of the gearbox.

Cork drain hole with gasket;
Oil filter automatic transmission VW;
Tank for draining technical fluid;

Step-by-step replacement ATF.

The car is installed on the observation pit with a muffled motor and disabled with lighting and other devices.
The transmission lubricant must be a free-rate, then it does not thwart and continue to flow faster.
The engine crankcase protection is removed (if any).
The container is substituted for draining the transmission fluid under the drain plug, which is unscrewed.
Up to the complete drain of the old lubricant, you need to wait about 45 minutes.
Carefully unscrew the pallet mounting bolts automatic transmission. Usually it may be some more hot lubricating fluid, so safety measures are required.
After the pallet is removed, dismantling the old oil filter. Usually three bolts hold it (depending on specific model car). You can not change the filter if the operation is performed for the first time, but then the remains of the old emulsion should be removed from it using a syringe.
The dismantled pallet should be laundered from the formed car. The presence of metal chips is possible, which also need to be removed.
A new gasket is put on the pallet, after which it put in place.
A drain plug is screwed with a fresh sealing ring.
With a syringe or flexible tube, ATF is replaced. After the bay of the oil, you need to give a motor a little to work in a different position of the "automaton" selector.

Subtleties for replacement of transmission fluid

Transmission fluid depending on the brand can have different color and smell. These indicators are not affected by the properties of lubricating liquids, as in the process of work car Engine They acquire a color from light brown to black, which indicates the period of lubrication.

Full replacement of the exhaust transmission fluid fresh is not usually achieved, as it is inevitably mixed with a small amount of working out. Therefore, even after a short time, it is simply impossible to establish a type of lubricating fluid on external features.

Statistics of the repair of "automata" Folkswagen company shows that the aggregates are not broken down due to mixing of different emulsions. The conditions of operation of the transmission are of paramount importance, and even the most expensive synthetics will not help if they are broken.

When changing the lubrication emulsion, the gearbox should not exceed 45 degrees. Do not forget to set the level of the lubricant in the box. For this, the motor and automatic transmission Volkswagen warms up to 40 degrees, after which the box selector moves several times to all the positions consistently and forth with a pause of 5 seconds. Then remove the drain plug to flow a small style of oil. As soon as she stopped lech, this means that the fluid level is set correctly.

Original lubricants are usually indicated in the operating instructions for auto or on an oil probe. For VW, G 052 025 (A2), ESSO Type LT 71141 and G 052 182 A2 are most suitable.

In order for the lubricating fluid not overheated in the automatic transmission design, the radiator is provided. Therefore, with a complete change of lubrication, it is necessary to pay attention to how the hydraulic highways are laid, for which the transmission emulsion flows. Incorrectly by connecting the oil replacement setting, you can provoke the output of the Volkswagen automatic transmission.
The hydraulic fluid in the transmission provides not only the lubrication of moving parts, but also in part transmits the torque. Therefore, its composition varies compared to those of liquids for manual boxes VW.

Properly established transmission fluid level is very important for uninterrupted VW gearbox. Check the lubrication level at a certain temperature set by the car operating manual. IN german boxes For this, the so-called control opening is used. If the oil is barely dripping through it, it means the level is normal, if it goes the end, then the level is too high.

How to maintain a vehicle to maintain a vehicle?

Liquid must have the necessary acting tolerances. concern Volkswagen.. Most preferably, the use of lubricant on a synthetic basis. If you buy a lubricant of another company, it is desirable that this company is a manufacturer, and not just a supplier of technical fluids.

And a little about the secrets of the author

My life is not only connected with the car, namely repair and maintenance. But also I have a hobby like all men. My hobby is fishing.

I started a personal blog in which I share my experience. Many things try, various methods and methods for increasing the catch. If interested, you can read. Nothing superfluous, only my personal experience.

ATTENTION, only today!

Read here, everything seems to be clear.
Periodically (but at least once for 30 km of mileage) Check the oil level in mechanical box Transmissions. The manufacturer does not provide for oil replacement. However, sometimes such a need may occur, for example, when switching to oil of other viscosity, when repairing the gearbox, etc. Due to the absence of elements on the gearbox for oil drain (cork, pallet, etc.) to replace the oil, refer to the service.
In the mechanical gearbox pour aPI oil GL4 SAE 75W-80.
1. Remove the cork of the control (bulk) hole, substituting the container in case of oil leakage.
2. Check the oil level: it should be at the lower edge of the bulk hole.
3. If necessary, fragile the oil with a syringe until it appears from the bulk hole.
4. Wrap the plug of bulk hole and tighten it with a point of 30 minutes.
Verification of upobhi topping and replacement of working fluid in an automatic transmission
The manufacturer provides verification of the level of working fluid in an automatic transmission every 60 thousand km of mileage. The replacement of the fluid is not provided during the entire service life of the car. However, the need to replace the fluid may appear in the case of its pollution or the appearance of the burner smell. In this case, refer to the service, since in addition to replacing the fluid, the transmission can be diagnosed there due to the fact that the listed features may indicate its damage.
Apply liquidrecommended by the manufacturer. The use of other liquids or oils leads to malfunctions in the work or failure of the gearbox.
You will need: Transmission Liquid, Funnel, Clean Rag, Hex key "on 5".
1. Enter the engine and warm the gearbox. The temperature of the fluid in the gearbox must be 50-80 ° C. To speed up the warm-up, you can make a short trip by car. Usually at temperature ambient 20 ° C is enough a 10-Mi-tip trip.
The temperature of the working fluid is determined using a special diagnostic equipmentconnected to the diagnostic connector of the car.
2. Install the car on a flat horizontal platform and slow down the parking brake.
3. Click on the brake pedal and, holding it pressed, alternately set the selector lever to all positions from "P" (parking) to "D" (forward movement), briefly lingering in each position for filling the liquid of the torque converter and hydraulic system. After that, set the selector lever to the "N" (neutral) position. Release the brake pedal.
The level of working fluid varies depending on the temperature. Control of the level of fluid at low temperature leads to overflow, and when high temperatures Fluids - to insufficient Filling of the CP. Overflow or insufficient filling breaks the gearbox.
4. Replace the transmission wide container for the drain of the working fluid.
5. Remove the hole plug to control the level of the working fluid.
6. At the normal level, the working fluid begins to flow out of the hole when the temperature is 35-37 ° C.
In the hole and to control the level, the bypass tube was installed, the upper edge of which corresponds to the normal level of the working fluid.
The grown smell of the working fluid while simultaneously presented in it of foreign particles in the form of fragments of the friction material indicates the need to repair the gearbox.
8. If the working fluid does not begin to flow from the control opening with an increase in temperature to 45 ° C, it is necessary to add liquid.
9. Through the hollow hole insert the hose in the bypass tube in such a way that its end was above the edge of the bypass tube.
10. Install the funnel hose to the upper end and when working in mode idle move Engine flood the working fluid until it starts flowing from the control opening.
The liquid must flow from the control opening with separate drops. If it follows the continuous jet, drain the excess until the dripping.
11. Wrap the control hole cork with a torque of 27 minutes.
Check the condition of the cork sealing, if necessary, replace it.

In the original ETKA program, you can accurately pick up the original catalog number of transmission oil through the wines. The last two signs indicate the volume of canisters. A2, S2 corresponds to one liter, A1 - 0.5 l., A6 - bucket of 20 liters.

Original significantly more expensive analogues.
