The transfer case on the UAZ Patriot SUV is a unit that is responsible for the distribution of torque from the car's engine to its drive mechanisms. Like most parts and assemblies in the UAZ Patriot car, the junction box needs diagnostic and preventive measures. The main preventive measure for premature elimination of breakdowns and prevention of increased wear of working units of the Republic of Kazakhstan is an oil change. What is an oil change, how is it carried out, what are the features, and which product is better to choose? We will consider all questions in this material.

Let's briefly consider which oil is better for pouring into the Republic of Kazakhstan. So, the manufacturer recommends pouring gear oil with a viscosity grade of 75W-85 into the distributor. In this case, you can use both synthetics and semi-synthetics. It is not recommended to pour mineral liquids into the distributor, box, axles and engine. Why? You can learn more about this from the material. The manufacturer recommends the following types of transmission fluids for the transfer case of an SUV:

• ZIC G-HF 75W-85;
• SKG-F TOP 75W-85 $
• HI SAE 75W85 API GL-3.

But as practice shows, few people attach importance to such recommendations and each motorist individually chooses for his car, in his opinion the best way or optimal in case of a lack of funds. But it is better to pour only high-quality oil into the distributor, as well as into the engine and axles, otherwise it will negatively affect the functioning of the unit and its service life, with the subsequent destruction of parts. Below is a plate that may be useful for owners of UAZ Patriot SUVs.

Often, drivers fill the same oil as in the gearbox and axles. More details about this can be found in this material. Next, we will consider how the UAZ Patriot SUV is replaced in the Republic of Kazakhstan.

The need to meet deadlines

Before proceeding with the consideration of how the replacement is carried out lubricating fluid in the Republic of Kazakhstan on an UAZ Patriot SUV, we will consider when such actions are necessary. So, based on the recommendations of the famous manufacturer Russian SUV, it should be noted that the first change of the lubricant is recommended to be made after 2500-5000 km of run. This is provided that the car is bought directly from the assembly line. But few people pay attention to such recommendations and often only the engine oil changes. In the best case, the replacement in the distribution box falls on a mileage of 20-30 thousand km. Why does the manufacturer recommend changing the lubricant after such a short time? Because the car is new and its parts have not yet become accustomed to each other, therefore the first thousand kilometers are test ones.

If you do not resort to replacing the lubricant after a specified period, in the oil, from the initial grinding of new parts, a lot of the smallest metal particles are formed, and they soon begin to intensively erase the working surfaces of the parts. This subsequently leads to a decrease in the operating life of the mechanism as a whole. Therefore, the plant recommends, and the owners independently decide on such events.

Disassembled box

How much lubricant is needed for an SUV dispenser? According to the recommendations of the engineers of the Ulyanovsk Automobile Plant, 0.7 liters of oil must be poured into the transfer case of the UAZ Patriot car. Each subsequent replacement of the lubricant should be carried out in a distributor every 25-70 thousand kilometers, which depends on the type of material used and on the operating conditions of the car. In particular, mineral water should be changed every 25 thousand km, and synthetics 65-70 km. We will consider further how the direct replacement of the material is carried out.

Replacement process

First you need to choose necessary tool for work. Therefore, you will need a "12" hex wrench, a syringe for filling and a container for draining the mining. It is better to put the car on inspection pit, so that it is convenient to carry out maintenance work. Warm up the vehicle by driving it for at least 15 minutes before replacing it. In this case, the working off will become much thinner and will flow out of the distribution box to the maximum.

The location of the plugs on the distributor

If, in the process of draining the lubricant, you notice that its composition is a dark liquid, which practically no longer has its original characteristics, then it should be concluded that the distributor needs more frequent oil change intervals.

So, the article considered all the important questions about how much oil needs to be poured into the distributor, which one is better to choose and how it is replaced on the UAZ Patriot SUV. We can summarize and note that such an aggregate in mandatory needs such preventive measures. Otherwise, if you forget that the transfer case, axles and gearbox need to be periodically changed lubricants, then - it can wrap up unpleasant consequences: from the appearance of noise in these units to jamming of gears during operation. Therefore, it is important to give Special attention such a process in which this material will help you.

Four-wheel drive cars are gradually gaining more and more love among car owners. This trend is associated with the best driving performance compared to conventional machines. 4-wheel drive is often helpful in difficult road situations, especially in winter. Anyone knows that it is much easier to get out of a snow-covered section of the road, to drive in mud outside the city or on ice when all the wheels of the car are spinning. Better yet, when all-wheel drive is combined with mechanical transmission... Cars with 2WD and 4WD have one significant difference in design - this is the transfer case.

1 What is a transfer case?

V front wheel drive vehicles the torque on the axle shaft is transmitted directly by the gearbox; in the rear-wheel drive, a propeller shaft and a gearbox are added. For all-wheel drive you have to use an additional unit - a transfer case. It is designed not only to force the front and rear axles rotate, and also to distribute torque between them, depending on the current driving conditions.

Hand-out designs in different models cars can be radically different, but the purpose, principle of operation and basic elements are the same for all. The main components of this unit are:

• drive shaft;
• center differential and locking mechanism;
• axle drive shafts;
• chain or gear transmission.

During operation of the transfer case, the parts in it experience friction. Over time, they inevitably wear out and become unusable. To reduce the negative effect of friction in the distributor, use transmission fluid... It also tends to age and lose its properties. Therefore, in order to extend the life of the unit for as long as possible, the lubricant in it should be changed regularly.

2 When to change the oil in the dispenser?

The frequency of changing the fluid in the dispenser depends on the car model. The car manufacturer in the operating instructions always gives recommendations on the mileage, upon reaching which the transmission should be replaced. But not only these recommendations should be relied on. It is necessary to take into account real conditions operation of the car. If it is often subjected to increased stress, then the lubricant experiences overheating and impacts at the molecular level. As a result, it wears out faster and must be replaced early.

You should immediately think about a premature replacement if there is a suspicion of water getting into the distributor. This can be determined by simply inspecting the lubricant. To do this, you will need to drain it a little. If the liquid is foamed or non-uniform, water ingress has occurred.

3 Choice of transmission fluid

What kind of lubricant to fill in the transfer case? The answer to this question is primarily to be found in the instructions. But this information is not always there. Therefore, car owners have to contact specialized forums or blindly trust the masters at the service station. The latter is not worth doing, you should always know what is being poured into the units of your car.

To independently decide on the choice of transmission fluid, you need to understand a little about their types. All transmissions are divided into classes according to their operational and viscosity properties.

API classification divides transmission fluids into the following types: GL1, GL2, GL3, GL4 and GL5. Relevant for passenger cars are liquids of the last two classes. API GL4 greases are designed for heavy duty applications and API GL5 for harsh environments with shock and variable loading.

According to their viscosity properties, greases are classified according to SAE and are designated by the corresponding indices. Summer indices are 80, 85, 90, 140, 250 and winter ones - 70W, 75W, 80W and 85W. Most often, all-season greases are used, marked with two indices at once.

Below is information about the oil to be filled in transfer cases of some popular models:

4 The process of changing the oil in the distributor

When the lubricant that needs to be used is determined, you can proceed to the replacement itself. It is not difficult to do this with your own hands on any car, since the processes are fundamentally no different. To change the lubricant in the distributor, you need to prepare:

• transmission fluid in a volume that is poured into the dispenser;
• a set of keys;
• container for draining liquid;
• a large syringe with a flexible tube.

Before starting the replacement process, the dispenser must be warmed up. It is usually filled with a high viscosity grease that does not flow well at ambient temperatures. When heated, it will drain faster, which will make it possible to get rid of it to the maximum. To do this, it is enough to drive a couple of kilometers.

The car must be driven into a pit and set strictly horizontally. This is very important, since only in this position will it be possible to completely drain the old grease and fill in the new one to the desired level.

On transfer case there are two plugs. One for draining the oil, the other for filling. The filler plug is always unscrewed first. This order should be followed because often this cork sticks. If you cannot unscrew it, and the grease is already drained, then it will be very difficult to fill it.

Now you can unscrew drain plug, having previously substituted a container under it. While the old fluid is draining, you can start cleaning the cork. It has a magnet on it that collects the resulting chips. Cleaning should be done with a rag so as not to injure your hands.

When the grease is completely drained, you need to screw the drain plug into place. New transmission fluid is drawn into a syringe and poured into the dispenser through the open hole. This is done until the liquid begins to flow back.

To complete the replacement process filler plug should be screwed into place.

Changing the oil in the distributor is quite simple. Even a beginner can do this job. The whole process takes a little time, so it is advisable to change the greases in the front and rear axles at one time.

For anyone vehicle the importance of timely replacement of lubricants cannot be overemphasized. Oils used in components and assemblies exposed to friction at high speeds significantly reduce their overheating and wear, helping to extend their service life. Among such nodes, one cannot fail to note the transfer case, which is equipped with four-wheel drive vehicles... Both old Niva cars and models under the Chevrolet brand, produced since 2002, need no introduction - these are some of the most massive all-wheel drive vehicles in our country, which have earned the love of motorists for their unpretentiousness, ease of maintenance and low cost... It is especially pleasing that the vast majority of maintenance operations for a domestic SUV can be performed independently, without resorting to the help of specialists and a car service. In particular, this also applies to changing the oil in the Niva distributor - a procedure that does not require special professional skills or special tools.

Checking the oil in the Niva distributor should be performed every 10 thousand km.

Replacement frequency

According to the recommendations given in the service book, for the first time, the oil in the transfer case of the Niva car should be changed during the fourth MOT, that is, after hitting 45 thousand kilometers. Then the procedure should be repeated with the same frequency. It should be especially noted that on the new Niva, the transmission oil is changed after running in (2000 km). It is recommended to check the lubricant level in the transfer case every 10 thousand kilometers. However, experts advise focusing not so much on the recommended indicators, but on the state of this important unit, as well as on factors associated with the operating conditions of the car.

It's one thing when the car drives mainly on good roads(urban, on suburban roads), and quite another - when its owner lives in the countryside or is an avid hunter, fisherman or just a big fan of outdoor activities. In such cases, the level and quality of the oil in the dispenser should be checked more often, and if signs of contamination of the fluid appear, it should be replaced without waiting for the scheduled time. So you decide when to change the oil in the Niva distributor, taking into account all the above factors.

Checking the oil level

The procedure for checking the oil level in the Niva dispenser is quite simple, in any case, it does not require any special skills. The only difficult moment is that it is necessary to provide access to the bottom of the car, for which it will be necessary to drive it onto a pit, overpass or securely install it on pads. The second point - the check should be done on cold car, so if you have driven somewhere before, wait until the car cools down.

The procedure itself is simple - just unscrew the filler plug with a 12 hexagon, after thoroughly cleaning it seat from dirt, and use a suitable object (a wooden stick or a piece of wire) to measure how much lower the liquid level is at the bottom edge of the hole. If this distance is more than 10 mm, top up should be done using a special syringe. You need to top up until the grease starts to flow out of the hole, then wipe the box dry and tighten the plug.

Choosing the Right Oil

The choice of lubricant for the transfer case and Niva axles should be taken responsibly, because the reliable functioning of these transmission elements ensures that you will never find yourself in a situation requiring outside help. The recommended ones have characteristics that ensure the optimal operation of the vehicle unit for which they are intended. If you know exactly what kind of oil is poured into the dispenser, the choice is simplified: it is enough to purchase a lubricant with the same viscosity. If this information is not available, it does not matter either: you just need to drain all the old transmission fluid, that is, do not limit yourself to top-up, if, say, the level is too low, and the lubricant itself is not yet very contaminated.

It should be noted that if you do not know which oil to pour into the Niva distributor, which one into the box, which one into the axles, then the manufacturer claims that you can use the same transmission fluid in all of these units. If we talk about, then oils 78W90, 80W85, 80W90 are acceptable, the main condition is. The manufacturer is not so important if it is a well-known foreign or domestic brand.

The automaker pours mineral water into the dispenser, but when replacing the fluid, the preferable lubricant will be semisynthetics, which have the best performance characteristics more suitable for the climate of our country.

How much to pour

According to the data given in the operating manual, the volume of oil poured into the distributor of the Niva-2121 and more modern modifications (21213, 21214, 21310) is 0.75 liters. Some reference books give a figure of 0.79 liters, which is not important - you still need to purchase liquid packaged in a container with a volume of 1 liter.

The procedure for self-changing oil in the Niva distributor

If, as a result of the next level check or in the dispenser, it turned out that it was time to replace it (symptoms indicating the need to perform such a procedure may be not only a very dark color of the oil with the inclusion of solid particles, but also the appearance of noise when the dispenser is turned on or during it work), you can perform such a replacement on your own.

To do this, you need a 19 and 12 hex wrench, a liter container for used grease and some rags. It will also be necessary to provide access to the car from the bottom side, for which you can use both a lift and an overpass or a viewing hole.

Immediately before replacing the car, you should warm up the car (drive it for about 10 kilometers). Procedure when performing Niva:

Note that draining and filling fresh oil is technically the same procedure for all Niva modifications.

In this article, we will talk about how the oil is changed in the box, razdatka and bridges of the Chevrolet Niva. The use of high-quality lubricants for vehicles plays an important role in the operation of any car. The most common for the transport to work properly is oil change process... It is possible to change the oil on your own, without the help of auto service employees, while significantly saving money.

The Chevrolet Niva is a full drive vehicle. Correctly selected oil for the transfer case, as well as all the bridges of an SUV, is a guarantee of long-term operation of all transmission mechanisms of the car. The oil helps to reduce friction, which means that the wear period of the parts is significantly increased. The table below shows the characteristics filling liquids for Chevrolet Niva, taken from official instructions on the operation of the machine.

What kind of oil to pour into the Chevrolet Niva transmission?

The choice of oil for the transmission of Chevrolet Niva cars is carried out on the principle of inadmissibility of mixing oils, the compositions of which are different. As for the viscosity characteristics of oils, it is better to give preference to the use of the following oils:

• 75w-90;
• 80w-85;
• 80w-90.

Oils intended for dispensing in an off-road vehicle are designated by the API GL-4 index. For replacement, a small amount of oil is required: about 0.8 liters.
During the first filling of oil into the Niva dispenser, remember how much of it is used. This will allow subsequent oil changes to be carried out without difficulty.

From the experience of auto repairmen and car enthusiasts good oil for Chevrolet Niva transmissions are produced by the following manufacturers:

• Gazpromneft: G-Box GL-4 / GL-5 75W-90, G-Box GL-5 75W-90;
• Lukoil: TM-4 75w-90, TM-5 75w-90;
• Shell: Spirax S4 G 75W-90 (Getriebeoil EP), Spirax S5 ATE 75W-90 (Transaxle Oil), Spirax S6 AXME (Spirax ASX);
• Castrol: Syntrax Universal Plus 75W-90, Syntrans Transaxle 75W-90, Syntrans Multivehicle 75W-90;
• TNK: Trans KP Super 75W-90, Trans Gipoid Super 75W-90;
• ExxonMobil: Mobilube 1 SHC 75W-90

Changing the oil in the Chevrolet Niva gearbox

To change the oil in the Chevrolet Niva gearbox, you will need the following tools:

1. steel hex key 12;
2. wrench 17;
3. container for draining the used lubricant.

Sequence of actions for gearbox oil change The fields are as follows:

1. Install the car above the inspection pit or drive it onto the overpass for the convenience of work. Before draining the old gear oil, be sure to warm up the engine... This is necessary in order to drain the oil out of the box as much as possible and without residue.
2. Go down into the inspection hole and place the container under drainer taking into account the bend of the outgoing jet. It is convenient to use a funnel.
3. Clean the locations of the filler and drain plugs at the checkpoint, as shown in the photo above.
4. First, it is better to unscrew the filler plug, and then the drain plug with a hexagon.
5. Now you need to wait for all the used oil to drain to the last drop.
6. There is a special magnet on the drain plug, to which all metal shavings are attracted. If there are steel particles on the plug, they must be removed. And another important point from the point of view of diagnostics - the more of these particles present on the cover, the less the transmission will last.
7. When the old used oil is glass, you need to screw the drain plug and start flushing the crankcase. To do this, fill in about 1 liter of special flushing fluid and let the car run for 2-3 minutes. In this case, you need to turn on the neutral in the transfer case and shift the gears with the clutch.
8. Further flushing fluid in the same way it is drained and replaced with new oil in the required volume.
9. After filling the oil, check the oil level on a level surface and. Within 2-5 minutes it is necessary let the motor run in the first gear position. After that, the oil level is checked and if it falls, then you need to top up a little more.

Carrying out an oil change in a Chevrolet Niva distributor

As for this car model, it is necessary to change the oil every 50-80 thousand kilometers... As soon as the car passes more than 120 thousand kilometers of track, the oil should be changed every 45 thousand kilometers.
For information! The vehicle operating instructions contain information on the frequency of oil changes, which each car owner must follow. But it will be more correct if the oil change procedure is carried out a little more often. This is due to the fact that car oil accumulates dust and dirt in itself, which eventually leads to contamination of transport mechanisms. That is why many car owners advise changing oils more often than indicated in the instructions.
So that the oil can be drained without problems, you should start changing it after a trip. On the way, the oil has time to heat up, thereby taking on a more liquid consistency.
Changing the oil in the dispenser is not as difficult as it seems at first glance. To replace it, you need to drive the transport to the inspection pit, or raise the car on a lift. You will need a container designed to drain the oil, as well as a rag with which you need to remove all smudges. Do not forget about the hex key (size 12), and you also need to have filling syringe .

Draining and pouring oil into the Chevrolet Niva distributor

1. The first step is to unscrew the drain plug. Then the oil is poured into a prepared container.
2. The old oil is checked for metal shavings. It is also worth paying attention to the built-in magnet - inspect it.
3. Impurities and impurities i on the cork should be cleaned. After that, the plug should be screwed back on.
4. The filler hole has a screw cap that must be unscrewed.
5. The gear oil is filled through the filling syringe.
6. Subject to inspection and cleaning vent valve.
7. It is necessary to remember or note in a notebook the mileage that was on the car at the time of the oil change.

More oil change in the Niva razdatka is shown in good video below.

The choice of oil for the front and rear axle Chevrolet Niva

So that the axles of the Chevrolet Niva all-wheel drive vehicle work flawlessly and long time, you should pay attention to the purchase of high quality oil. The front gear has filling volume oils, equal to 1.15 liters, and the rear 1.3 liters... It takes about three liters to change the oil.

Changing the oil in the axles of the Chevrolet Niva SUV

For this procedure, it is recommended to observe the maintenance of the transport, as well as the rules for repairing an SUV. The oil change in the bridges of the car should occur every 40 thousand kilometers (applies to cases of operation of the Niva under normal conditions). If the car is operated in more difficult conditions, then the oil change should be done much earlier.

Preparation for changing the oil in the Chevrolet Niva axles

Changing the oil in the axles of the vehicle is identical to the procedure for changing the fluid in the transfer case. You should drive the SUV to the inspection hole or to the lift. The volume of oil required is the same as for the transmission. Warm up the Niva before changing the oil. Next, you need a 12 key - a hexagon, a 17 socket with a wrench, a container for draining the used oil, a rag. You should also take care of the availability filling syringe.
