Oil in Peugeot 308 automatic transmission. Checking the level of transmission fluid

10.10.2019

If timely produce all engineering works On any car, including Peugeot 308, then this can significantly increase its life. This is especially true of machines with automatic transmission. This can be installed on Peugeot 308.

Problems with such an aggregate are mainly arising due to the fact that it is incorrectly careful. Here is a mandatory moment is the timely oil change. How to pursue such a procedure as well, which oil is poured, it will be written in the article below.

The manufacturer says that the replacement of lubrication in the automatic transmission at the 308th must be carried out after a run of 100,000 kilometers. Also, such a procedure can be done before. Here everything will depend on the conditions of operation of transport and the desire of the owner itself.

If there is no desire to repair the box through 60,000 mileage kilometers, then the oil is recommended to change it in 30,000 kilometers.

Replacing lubricant in the transmission may be full or partial . Constantly full replacement You can not fulfill. So that the box worked properly for a long time, you can simply regularly produce partial replacement Oils in it.

What to pour?

Oil for automatic box Mobil ATF LT71141 gear.

For automatic transmission it is impossible to use the oil that is poured into the manual transmission.

For automatic boxes there are special fluids that can perform such functions.:

Distill heat from frictional.
Guarantee the operation of the hydrotransformer.
Delete from box wear products.
Lubricate details that are drunk among themselves.
Used control system.

Currently there are three classes of oil for automatic transmission:

Synthetic.
Mineral.
Semi-synthetic.

All of them differ among themselves with their composition, as well as a type of additives.

ATF LT 71141 standard oil.

Fixtures

For carrying out lubrication replacement activities, such a tool and consumables should be prepared.:

Funnel for draining liquid from the box.
Keys (dynamometric).
Rags.
Butter.

The amount of oil in the Pengeon 308 - 7 liters. With partial replacement, it is recommended to drain three liters of spent material.

Should change oil by 3 l. through every 30 000 kilometers of way.

With partial replacement it is necessary to buy 3-4 liters of oil, and with a complete - 9 liters.

conclusions

As can be seen from the process described above, with work on the replacement of oil in automatic transmission on Peugeot 308 can be performed on its own.

The Al4 brand is installed on the car, it is a four-step automatic with and electronically control. The unit was developed jointly by the concerns Peugeot-Citroen and Renault S.A. The design of the box is simple and reliable, but requires that the cleanliness of oils in Dr. Peugeot 308 corresponded to high standards.

Despite the assurances of the manufacturer, the absence of the need to replace transmission fluid Throughout the service life, it is worth it, otherwise the box will not last and the season. The gradual mechanical wear of parts, the penetration of water vapors and dirt, the overheating of the mechanism, leads to the loss of additives the necessary properties and makes the oil of Peugeot 308 unsuitable to use.

Checking the level of transmission fluid Peugeot 308

Check the fluid level in the box is necessary every 30000 km of run, and in case of suspicion of leakage, before each trip. In Peugeot 308 control the oil allows a metal plug provided for in the automatic transmission. Structurally, the double tube, the first part, metallic, serves to control the level and limits the number of transmission fluid if it is overflowing. By reloading a metal cork, we get access to the main, plastic plug. With its help, the liquid merges from the box.

Control of the filling of transmission fluid in the automatic transmission:

Set vehiclebrought to operating temperature horizontally on the lifting;
Working in idle, bring the temperature of the coolant before the fan is turned on;
Increase all transmissions with the subsequent transition to parking mode;
Put power installation After turning off the fan;
By placing the tank under the drain, unscrew the metallic, control plug;
Check that a few drops of fluid appear; install the plug back.

Lubricants in the form of a jet indicates the exceeding the amount of fluid, the use of it above the norm threatens with high pressure and frequent overheating of the box.

The flow in the form of small droplets, testifies to the oil level below the established norm, if the oil is not visible at all, it is not allowed. Both factors contribute to the failure of frictional and require immediate replacement of transmission fluid in the mechanism.

What transmission oil and how often fill

The replacement should be systematically, through 60000km, the digit is characterized by the standard load on the vehicle. With increased operation of the unit, the liquid changes through the 30000km of the path traveled. In operation include: trailer, traffic jams, mountain serpentine, off-road, low temperatures, etc.

Special transmission fluids apply to automatic transmission fluids.

Resistant viscosity of fluid;
Resistance to wear fluid;
Resistance of liquid to oxidation;
Resistance of fluid for friction;
Resistance to liquid to the formation of foam.

By type, oil for automatic transmission:

Remove air filter;
Extract the battery, disconnecting alternately positive and negative terminals;
Remove the battery pack.

Filling the transmission fluid:

Unscrew the filler plug of the Dr. Peugeot 308;
Fill the liquid using the oil and clock funnel;
Replace the gasket and put the plug (force 3.2 nm);
Install in the reverse order the pad under the battery, battery, air filter.

Pumping fluid, fill control:

Start the vehicle;
Warm up transport to 60 ° C;
Switch all the positions of the gearbox, with the return to the parking mode;

Controlling the bay of fluid, with the first drain plug, drain the excess, close the plug.

Checking the transmission fluid leakage

Control, whether an automatic box does not flow, an important part of the transmission fluid change. The cause of leakage, a weak tightening of the drain and fuel bolts, may be a more serious breakage:

Malstructor problems;
Damage to the seals;
Sapoon zoom and others.

Timely elimination of the cause of leakage can save from serious repairs. The procedure is extremely simple: a sheet of paper is needed under the gearbox and after a few hours is checked, there are spots on it.

Replacing oil in transmission - one of the most important elements Service that will extend the life of the car. Replacing the oil in the automatic transmission of Peugeot 308 (they are installed on them automatic gearbox Al4) - a rather complicated procedure, and many car owners are not fully clear how to produce this procedure, with what frequency, and what type ATF. It is recommended to use in various operating conditions.

Many manufacturers of machine guns, including Peugeot and Renault (on many "Renault models" stands the same box Al4, but by their classification it is assigned a number DP0), it is stated that their automatic transmission is not serviced, and then the oil that is flooded in it, calculated For the entire service life of the car. However, another question is that it is the French that are meant under the service life of the car. And they mean the service life of approximately 5 years, for which the car passes 150-200 thousand kilometers, after that the car is recommended to replace. Agree, very and very modest numbers - for Russian motorists buying a car with hands, this is a pretty good option - such a car is considered almost new.

It turns out, it is worth changing the oil every 150-200 thousand kilometers? Yes, but only if you use the car only on the roads built on European standards, and you do it very carefully - drive without "jerks", sharp accelerations and overtops and do not allow other situations that negatively affect the gearbox (towing, passion Switching up and reset the gas when switching down, inclusion rear transmission When moving forward and vice versa, riding on an immentable or overheated box). It is also necessary to take into account the harsh Russian winter, which also harm the box.

Therefore, the oil replacement period is noticeably reduced - up to about 90-100 thousand kilometers. But it should be remembered that in the AL4 box only about 7 liters of oil, but only 3 liters are possible to merge. Therefore, in order to renew the oil as much as possible, you need to make at least three replacement cycles. This is a rather time-consuming process that requires a lot of time.

What oil to use?

As a rule, ATF LT 71141 is used in the PEUGEOT 208 automatic transmission (among the available manufacturers such an ATF, you can choose the one that will suit your budget, but Mobil and ESSO are most often used). As an alternative, LT 141173 produced by Total is suitable. For the winter season is suitable Liqui Moly. Top Tec ATF 1100, but if for certain reasons you want to take an ATF with higher viscosity - the Liqui Moly Top TEC ATF 1200 is suitable.

Important: oils with a smaller viscosity take for the cold season, with more - on the contrary.

Required tools and devices

In order to replace ATF, you will need the following equipment:

funnel with a long nose of a small diameter (they can be purchased or made independently using any other funnel and a small tube or hose);
keys (preferably, if there is a set of dynamometer keys);
capacity where you will merge old ATF (minimum volume - about three liters);

the new ATF in an amount of about 9 liters for a complete replacement (in total, approximately 7 liters is poured into the PEUGEOT 208 automatic transmission, but only 3 liters are merged - to achieve the maximum effect, the ATF will have three times) or 3 for partial;
a set of new gaskets from Remkomplekt №144002 (they are recommended to change when oil replaced);
clean and dry rags (it is desirable to avoid tissues that can leave threads and fibers on a wiped surface).

Instructions for replacement

Oil change occurs as follows:
1. Warm car and box. This is necessary so that the oil becomes less viscous, has acquired sufficient fluidity for fast replacement. You can simply run the engine and give it to work about five to seven minutes, but experts recommend to drive 10-12 kilometers in a calm mode, without frequent switching (the fact is that when the car works at idle, the transmission warms not enough).
2. Wait about 5 minutes after running - the oil should cool a little (otherwise you risk seriously burning).
3. Install the car on the lift or driving on the pit.
4. Remove the protection from the motor crankcase (for this it will be necessary to pre-remove the bumper protection).
5. Go down under the bottom of the car and find the drain gearbox plug.

6. Submold under the drain hole in advance the prepared container for the spent oil, unscrew the drain plug (for this you need a four-way key) and drain the oil.
7. Wait until most of the oil alters and it will stop flowing and start dripping. After that, screw the inner cork and drain the remaining ATF.
8. Wrap the inner and external traffic jams.
9. Open the hood, dismantle the duct nozzle, remove the positive terminal with the battery (rechargeable battery). Remove the housing with the battery (for this it may be needed to take to the side of the safety unit).
10. Disconnect the negative terminal with the battery and remove the battery (the key will be required to 10).
11. Unscrew the PPC plug (probably access to it can interfere with the Wire "Weight". In order to remove it, remove the platform to which the battery is installed).
12. Fill new oil and install all the units back.
13. Get the car, let him work at idle until the system turns on air cooling, or coolant will not heat up to 60 degrees Celsius.
14. When the fan turns on, transfer the box in turn in all the programs and return to the "Parking" position.
15. Unscrew the external drain plug under the bottom of the car and wait until the oil starts dripping. Tighten the plug.

IMPORTANT: In order to "notify" on-board computer About replacement time, contact the service center to reset the automatic oil aging counter.

Conclusion

Everyone knows that the motor is the "heart" of the car. In this case, "muscles" is a transmission that transmits the necessary rotation to the chassis. In order for the "muscles" of your car working properly, it is necessary to provide them good conditions Operation in which they will not have an excessive load. For automatic boxes, it is even more relevant - the mechanisms of the "machine" are more complicated than the mechanical box units, and require more attention. It is not necessary to allow slipping, sharp starts and braking, it is desirable as you can create a car "from the Tolkach" as possible - automatic gearbox is very sensitive to similar phenomena.

IN winter time It is recommended to use oil into an automatic transmission with less viscosity (with a decrease in temperature, viscosity increases significantly) and be sure to use the winter transmission mode if it has it. And of course, it is worth changing the oil in time: despite the assurances of the manufacturers, in order for the PPC to serve you not 15,000,000 mileage kilometers, but much longer, the service is still worth producing.

During the operation of the car requires a regular replacement of transmission fluid transmission. Such a procedure must be carried out regularly, observing the established and recommended time frames. Peugeot 308 is equipped with Al4 transmissia, requiring timely maintenance. One of the most important operations to maintain the full functionality of the car is to replace the transmission substance ACP.

Checking the level of transmission fluid

The AL4 automatic boxes have a drain plug consisting of 2 parts. The base of the part forms part 1, which is actually a plug. Part number 2 - inside the hollow (tubular) with a set length. This structural element serves as a peculiar indicator, according to which the lubrication level is set. At the same time, the second part of the drain plug of the Dr. Peugeot 308 protrudes the amount of the amount of fillible substance. The tubular design provides a sufficiently comfortable drainage of spent oil.

The level of transmission fluid can be checked in such a sequence:

If a lubricant poured a trickle, the level was exceeded. Increased amount of transmission substance Peugeot 308 can cause overheating Al4. Such a situation also leads to an undesirable increase in pressure inside the aggregate.

The fact that the level of transmission fluid is below the norm, indicates the appearance of oil through the drain hole drops. Even worse things, if the lubricant does not go out. Low level Oils in the AL4 automatic transmission exposes friction fast wear. In the first and second case, it may be necessary to be partial or complete replacement of transmission fluid.

What lubricant and how often to fill

It is very important to remember that fundamentally different products are used in the manual transmission and in the AL4 automatic box. For automatic transmission, special transmission fluids have been developed - ATF. Such lubricants are elevated requirements for:

ATF for AL4 automatic transmission stabilizes the operation of the hydrotransformer. Special fluid The automatic box reduces thermal loads on friction elements. The oil flies the products resulting from the degree of wear of parts, ensures the correct functionality of the control system.

Mineral, semi-synthetic, can be poured into automatic transmissions, synthetic oils. They differ in chemical composition, additives and basic properties. These lubricants also have a different degree of aggressive (destructive) effect on sealing rubber parts.

According to the advice of users and specialists, for the Peugeot 128 automatic transmission, the optimal lubricant is ATF LT 71141. Smooth work Transmission is ensured by a balanced system of additives. The recommended fluid has proven its effectiveness at low temperatures. You can change ATF LT 71141 with longer intervals.

Replacing transmission fluid ACPP Peugeot 308, according to the recommendations of users and specialists, is produced in 30,000-40,000 km. Change the oil through certain intervals should also be tailored to its aging.

Transmission fluid replacement process

In the dry automatic transmission of Peugeot 308 poured 5.85 liters of lubricant. The volume of the fused oil from Al4 is approximately 3 liters. It is necessary to navigate to this quantity, determining the working number of transmission fluid for fill.

Partial oil change can be made if the interval does not exceed 50,000 km of mileage. After 100,000 km, it will take a complete replacement of transmission fluid automatic transmission of Peugeot 308.

At the preparatory stage

A partial or complete replacement of a transmission substance Peugeot 308 automatic transmission is carried out with a raised position of the car. You can use the observation pit, the overpass, lift. For the successful replacement of Al4 transmission fluid, materials and tools must be prepared:

aTF oil Lt 71141 (4 l for partial replacement, 7 l - for full);
Padding;
filter cleaning;
4-faceted key on 8 for a drain plug;
dynamometric keys with heads (10, 19, 27);
Funnel with an elongated nose (you can wear a rubber tube to a standard funnel);
Capacity for draining waste liquid;
Clean rags (rags).

Partially change the lubricant in the gearbox itself. For successful implementation of full replacement, you need an assistant. It is even better to contact the workshop or service center.

How to conduct a partial replacement

A well-hot car (you need to ride at least 10-15 minutes) is installed on the prepared workstation. Next, the partial replacement includes such steps:

With partial replacement in the transmission Peugeot 308, old and new lubricants are mixed. Mechanical particles and sediments remain, as a rule, inside the aggregate. Therefore, it is not always possible to achieve noticeable changes in the work of the gearbox after such a procedure.

How to carry out a complete replacement

The complete replacement of the exhaust transmission liquid Al4 provides for the maximum possible removal from the unit. A small part of the old substance (0.5-1%) will still remain in the system. But with a complete replacement, it is much higher like the possibility of removing foreign elements.

Change completely transmission fluid can be 2 ways. The first implies the passage of all the stages of partial replacement 3-4 times. So the old substance is extruded new. Lubrication is almost completely refreshing.

However, a second way to fully replace the spent transmission substance is more effective. It is quite laborious, requires certain skills. In this case, the way can not do without assistant and additional equipment. Therefore, often completely change the transmission fluid falls in specialized workshops or service centers.

The full renewal of the lubricant is made using the device for pumping fluid. He pumps out the old product from the system and immediately serves a new one. Two transparent tubes are involved in the device. Each mounted in the pumping circuit or pumping fluid. This allows you to visually assess the condition of moving substances.

The operation of the device is controlled by an assistant. If the replacement is carried out on a service station, the specialist follows the processes in the tubes. On the implementation of the complete replacement indicates the same color of the transmission fluid in both tubes.

Checking the transmission fluid leakage

After partial or complete replacement of the Peugeot transmission lubricant, the Peugeot 308 must be verified in the absence of leaks. To do this, under the front of the machine (in the box area) you need to lay paper or newspapers. They are clearly visible drops of lubricant. It is better to do it in the evening so that in the morning to make sure or the absence of spots.

It is impossible to ignore the resulting fluid flowing from the automatic box. The leakage may be the result of banal inattention (weakly tightened drain plug), and can sign about serious breakdowns. The emerging droplets of the transmission substance indicate a breakdown of the hydrotransformer, clogging of the sapuna, wear of the glands and other problems. Eliminate faults need as early as possible to prevent expensive repair or problem situation.

If you regularly carry out the necessary technical work, you can significantly increase the service life of any unit. This statement is especially correct to the automatic transmission of AL-4. It is this transmission that is installed in Peugeot 308. Most problems appear due to the lack of competent technical prophylaxis.

Replacing the oil in the automatic transmission of Peugeot 308 do it yourself

If you believe the manufacturers, oil in the gearbox can not be replaced for 100 thousand km, there is also a sequet, according to which the owner can replace the oil with a smaller car run if it has such a desire. In practice, it is not necessary to wait for a hundred thousand mileage, if you want to do without repair automatic transmission. Experts claim to change transmission oil It follows after 30 thousand km. Change the transmission oil is completely, or partially. It should be noted that full procedure Every time it is absolutely optional. So that the automatic transmission worked correctly, it is quite enough to periodically partially replace the oil.

What oil to fill in AL4 automatic transmission?

What transmission fluid to use, Esil required replacing oil in the automatic transmission of Peugeot 308? It should be remembered that lubrication fluid for automatic and for mechanical boxes - These are completely different products. Special lubricants are created for automatic transmission, which are also called transmission fluids, or ATF. Thanks to them, the motorist receives many advantages:

stabilizes the operation of the hydrotransformer;
it is closed superfluous heat that interferes with the operation of gears (if more precisely - friction elements) in the hydrotransformer;
malicious products are eliminated due to wear details;
permanent lubrication of interacting elements of the unit is ensured;
proper functioning of the control system is ensured.

For automatic transmissions You can use three types of oils: synthetic, mineral or semi-synthetic. These oils have a different chemical composition and sets of so-called additives.

The composition of transmission oil additives affects the following characteristics:

lubrication of interacting (rubbed) elements;
foaming level;
resistance to oxidation processes;
the ability to neutralize products of wear;
the level of aggressive impact on rubber parts;
inflammation temperature.

For the gearbox AL-4 best option There will be a transmission oil ATF LT 71141..

Peugeot 308 replacement of oil in automatic transmission - what is needed for this

To start the procedure, it is necessary that the machine is in a raised position. Some car enthusiasts prefer to use the lift, others - the overpass, quite a few drivers consider optimal option watching pit. Also, the motorist must prepare the toolkit listed below and some materials:

Funnel having an elongated nose. It is easy to purchase in the store, or make yourself. Just wear on a standard funnel, a tube with the desired diameter.
You should have a set of dynamometric (or other) keys.
The container in which the waste fluid will be poured.
New oil.
Clean cloth (rag, rag).

For the correct operation of the transmission, Peugeot 308 requires approximately 7 liters of transmission fluid. It is merged, as a rule, about three liters. Change the transmission oil is not fully recommended. It is best to produce a partial replacement - enough three liters that need to be poured every 30 thousand km. If the car enthusiast decided to fully replace, he will need nine liters of a new liquid.

Main steps

Before starting the main actions, heating the car. For this we ride ten minutes.
Remove the plastic protective elements of the bumper, the same applies to the carder.
Under the car we are looking for a plug closing. It is easy, there are four-gamped excavations on the traffic jam, especially for the key.
We install under the hole through which the drain will be made prepared in advance to the container in which the waste fluid will be drained.
After that, we unscrew the cork on the plum and allow the old lubricant to fully remove.
When the flow stopped (only drops remained), we unscrew the cork inside, pour the remaining liquid.
We replace gaskets on traffic jams, tighten the drain hole. It should be spinning carefully so that the gasket is not damaged.
Shooting the cork, raise the hood and continue the replacement process.
We dismantle the air filter.
Reaching the battery, turn off plus; the block in which the fuse is located, we take to the side (this unit is placed on the battery itself). Remove the casing (for this you need to pull the part for yourself) the battery.
Then disconnect the "minus" terminal on the battery.
Using the key (size - 10) dismantle rechargeable battery (after removing the bolts).
It may interfere with the mass of the mass, in this case we remove the battery pack. To do this, you will have to tinker with the appropriate bolt, which is located below the fence.

Using the key, unscrew the plug hiding the plug hole and, accordingly, fill the gear oil.
Before filling a new liquid, check if existing drain plugs are closed.
Using a special funnel pour a new ATF. Then we close the plug hole, while we use the force of about 3.2 n / m.
It is also necessary to replace the gasket (which is copper) is to do it regularly, when replacing fluid.
By turning the plug, return the filter and the battery to the place.
Now you can start the engine.
Let the engine operates at idle until the temperature of about 60 degrees is reached, then the fan must earn a fan responsible for cooling the radiator.
Then we translate the selector to all possible positions, and return the lever into the "P" state.
By producing a replacement, a meter should be reset, tracking aging of transmission oil.
Having finished with the bay of the transmission fluid, it is necessary to unscrew the plug on the drain hole so that the excess lubrication fluid flows. We wait until the jet of the oily liquid starts to drip. After that, we close the plug hole.

How to check the oil level in the automatic transmission?

To correctly check the level of transmission fluid, the machine must be in the correct horizontal position. Checking the level, the motorist must pour about half a liter of fluid. Then we start the engine, wait when the fan earns. We unscrew the plum covering the plug, and allow an extra lubricant to pour out. Sometimes the oil is not poured, but just sometimes dripping. In this case, we fill the next floor of the liter of fluid, and repeat the above process. For a better understanding of the processes described above, read peugeot 308 Oil Replacement in ACP Video.
