Solano 2 works at that 3. Not so much scratched as it is small: Repair and maintenance of Lifan Solano. And it is easily explained. The pros of this model can be attributed

Let's try to be objective: Chinese cars, and what belongs to Chery Tiggo will be absolutely unfair to BYD F30M, and what will be true for Brilliance BC3 cannot be projected on Great Wall Hover. Therefore, we will throw off the bias and categorical of judgment, take one particular Chinese car and let's see what its owner will face, which will have to repair how much it will cost and what can be saved. The role of experimentation will be Lifan Solano 2010 release.

Slightly stories

Lifan quite clearly illustrates the possibilities of Chinese business. Founded in 1992, Chongqing Hongda Auto Fittings Research Center (such a name was lifun at the beginning of its activities) was engaged in the repair of motorcycles, then their production. Already in 2003, buses of this manufacturer appeared to the world, and in 2005 the Chinese were pleased with the world in the first car.

Of course, the company's history could be more stretched in time if the car business was not built on the exhaust production scheme under license to more well-known firms. But Lifan did not invent the bike, moreover, he also did not invent the car, so he was not quite his car under his brand in the shortest possible time. The first became Minivan LF6361 / 1010, where you can learn Daihatsu ATRI. Lifan 320 (Smily) is strangely similar to Mini Cooper, although in fact it is based on Daihatsu Charade Aura. At Lifan Breez there was no someone, but the BMW concern himself. And not for theft of your model, but for copying the name (Lifan Breez appeared initially as Lifan 520, that the Germans slightly beat) and stylistics. But the Chinese were not very upset, removed the numbers and for the international market called the Breez car than everything ended. Well, because of the wide backs of Lifan X60, Toyota RAV4 ears stick out unobtrusively. Of course, our today's Lifan 620 (he Solano) did not too much forced to sweat Chinese engineers. Solano is largely (almost completely) Toyota Corolla E120. Now the question is: True, the Chinese did not come up with anything good? No, since the work of Lifan was able to get out of the leaders among Chinese companies in the number of registered patents. They are only in the automotive industry in Lifan about 350, and after all, the company is not only engaged in cars. In addition to trucks, passenger cars and motorcycles, Lifan stamps also sports shoes. And he is engaged - attention! - winemaking. In Cherkessk since 2007, the building of Lifan cars began on the territory of the Derveyis plant. Already in 2009, production went on the full cycle, and now the Russian company is producing not only Lifan, but also Chery, Geely, Brilliance, Jac, DFL and Hawtai. Someone believes that the Russian assembly is a plus in karma of the Chinese car, someone considers it a disadvantage. Whatever it is, there are usually on the assembly of cars and they usually have the right to exist. About what is done in cars is good, and what is not very, it will be a little lower. While we will get acquainted closer with our Solano.

The car, as I said, was released in 2010, but he had a small mileage, only 75 thousand kilometers. It is made in the configuration "Lux": the salon will be covered with the skin, the discs are cast here, and not stamped, there is a parking sensor (more precisely, it was enough for himself), heated seats and control the audio system on the steering wheel. However, the "base" of a slight poorer. Whatever there is about the "Chinese", and they may not be worse than an experienced housewife - pepper.

Engine

If you take the original Japanese 4a-Fe, then at the time of your release in 1988 and for many years it can be considered practically impeccable. To date, he, of course, is already technically outdated, but in terms of reliability it can be said. Even in its Chinese version of the LF481Q3, it does not cause any complaints if it were not for one "but". The thing is how the wiring is performed in the car. The mechanical part of the motor is almost unnecessary, but periodic "glitches" in the operation of electronics occurs quite often. True, in the case of our car, everything is in order, no nerve engine has satisfied since 2010, it works exactly and interference in its metal subsoil does not require. However, there will be enough theory, I will turn face to practice.

The advantage of not the most freshly constructive motor is the comparative simplicity of its service. Of course, everyone can replace the oil here. The only difficulty is to remove the oil filter. If your hands are not too weak from arthritis, and on the previous one, the filter did not twist the terminator from all over the force, then you should first try to unscrew it from above. It is possible, although he is hidden enough deeply. It is necessary to search for it in front, under the graduate manifold protective screen. Filter did not succumb to persuasion and physical strength? We have to remove the crankcase. If the focus with unscrewing through the top will pass, then look for a pit or jack. It is optional: there is a hole for a drain plug, and it is located so that you can reach and just lying, without a lift. In any case, with a self-replacement, it will be saving rubles to 500, and for the filter will have to lay out only 250-300 rubles.

It is even easier for the air filter. It is exactly the same here as on similar Toyota motors. The replacement will take a couple of minutes: we fold two latches, remove the housing cover, change the item and close everything back. Just and even boring like a sandwich with doctoral sausage. But the savings are also so-so: 200 rubles. The filter itself costs 300 rubles.

There is another mandatory procedure that is the replacement of candles. There are no coils here on the candle, it is not necessary to remove anything, they simply unscrew the old candle and twist a new one. True, the wells are rather deep and nothing to drop in them is not necessary - the motor is harmful. For this work in the service will be asked 600-700 rubles, which, of course, is not robbery, but more than for replacing the air filter.

Suspension equipment belts separate: on the generator, gur and air conditioning. They can be changed to themselves, and the access is comfortable, and the procedure itself is simple. True, the belts of each other are overlap, so the further belt is, the harder it is to shoot it. To remove the generator belt, it will be necessary to throw off the gur belt, and the air conditioner belt.

Tension mechanisms - you will not think easier, but you have to die with them. If it's not too difficult to get to the generator bracket, then it is more complicated to the bracket of Gora, it will have to climb the block, which is not quite convenient. The air conditioner belt is stretched by a roller. All belts can be changed from above - to get up on the lift, look for a pit or risk life under the car on the jack of necessity is not. For replacing the belt, they are asked from 300 rubles to 1,000, depending on its location - the further, the more expensive. The timing belt is rarely changing, but also in the service owners of this "Chinese" not always hurry. Ride calmly, because the valves during the cliff does not bend - on the pistons on the old tradition there are grooves under the valves. The belt, by the way, is suitable from Toyota, but its resource honestly works and the original. However, it does not burn it hard to exceed it. If it is not replaced by 60 thousand, closer to 70 it is quite capable of breaking. The replacement in the service will cost 5,000 rubles, the belt itself and the tensioning roller are about two thousand rubles.

Chassis and brakes

I would like to warn the owner of Solano about the possible failure of the assembly from Lifan's "real" Toyota. Yes, filters and many spare parts on the article match with Japanese, but it does not mean at all that everything suits. Even in the chassis there are differences - for example, the front shock absorbers will stand on Solano only after a small alteration. Yes, and the sense to change the original on the analogues (even from Toyota) is not a big one, this is not the case when the devil lies in the details. He is hidden here in the other, he will be discussed later. Another detail that causes the complaints of "Solanodov" is the tip of the steering thrust. The resource of the tips is about 50 thousand. The item itself costs about a thousand rubles, and many have a desire to replace it on their own. Well, you can heal 600 rubles and do it yourself. But from harmful, I can not dispel one of the myths of such a replacement.

Many Kulibins who have formed their consciousness under the influence of uncle Vasi (which repairs everything in a row with beer and vobly in the neighboring box), are sure that if when you unscrew the old tip, count the number of revolutions, and then the new tip is tied to the same amount, then to set the angle It is not necessary to converge: wheels will rise in the same way as they were. In fact, it is not. According to statistics, one hundred, such luck is likely with a chance of 1 of 20. That is, in 19 cases, from 20 after replacement, a deterioration in manageability or Zhor rubber is possible, or all these charms simultaneously. Therefore, when replacing the tips, you need to carry the machine to the stand, measure the corners and set them, as it should be. In some services, you will not even tell you about it, and consider the number of turns and do everything in the same way as the very mythical uncle Vasya. Such a hundred should be avoided. Brakes in a circle of disc (, by the way), the replacement of the pads and disks will not be difficult. The front and rear pads cost about 1,000 rubles, the replacement of the front in the service will cost 600 rubles, the rear - in 700. With a self-replacement, it will be necessary to maintain the calipers - they are prone to tunevism due to zaksiva, and especially the rear brake mechanisms are different.

Transmission

And what is the most interesting, this filter is very coarse, stands on the fuel tract after a fine cleaning filter (the so-called "diaper") on the fuel filter inside the tank. Why is it generally needed - a mystery. True, we will not block the Chinese - exactly the same strange scheme applied to Daewoo Nexia.

Body and Salon

Move inside. The photo shows that the place where the magnetol should stand is empty. The fact is that in the manufacture of good magnetol, the Chinese did not succeed. The deceased speaker system is almost a norm for Solano. Instead of something, something else did not want something, so there is a fastening for a tablet on the site of the radio, and the wires stick out from the deflector, which the tablet is connected to the columns. Well, let it be.

To be honest, then in this price category the interior is very good. We here, however, there are no inserts under the tree (something they did not please the owner of the car), but without them the salon looks good. It pleases the material Torpedo: it is not a land plastic, but a pleasant to the touch, quite high-quality soft material. And in general, the salon and the rejection panel do not cause. Noise insulation is not the best, but again - not in Cadillac. For its price, it is quite acceptable, especially since there are no creak and "crickets" in the cabin. True, it was worth just to touch the door to the armrest of the door, as her card moistened. But it was the only sound in the cabin that should not be.

Lithuan Solano in the body Sedan is one of the modern and newest segment models with European classification from the Chinese automaker in the face of Lifan Industry Group Co. Ltd. On the forums and thematic sites, Reviews Lifan Solano has positive in the main mass. But the questions remains abounding.

Many motorists are interested in the same question: "What is distinguished by this car" Golf class "from competitors, as well as what technical and running characteristics it possesses, and that it is necessary to know every person in order to make the right choice. Answers to some questions can be found in this article.

Lifan Solano - got good popularity in the market

Overview Lifan Solano.

It is worth noting that initially Lifan Solano created a great popularity, respectively, a good reputation in the Asian market, and only then moved to the old world market. I would like to recall that in the modern world only in China for the first three months of 2009 about 15 thousand cars were implemented. And this is not a final start, as the daily sales of cars in China exceeds 30 thousand cars.

Unambiguously, it can be said that this car produces a vivid impression and very solid. The design you can meet modern trendy notes, so it can be called successful, which combines the global trends of the automotive industry. We should not say that every person can find in it and the features of the German car industry, or rather Bvarsa BMW 3rd series. And what is really not enough - it is some kind of special "raisin" in this car.

Obzo Lifan Solano:

Perhaps this will happen in the future, no one argues, well, while this car is collected due to modern trends, especially this concerns Chinese style in design. But on the background of competitors, it looks very worthy. If you compare it with Geely Vision, then we can say that the quality of finishing, materials has grown and the handling has become much better, which clearly demonstrated the test drive Lifan Solano in the context of Russian roads.

The salon is completely from the skin that it is pleasant to touch, she is neatly sewn. Torpedo is made of polyurethane foam, so it turned out to be soft and not bug, it looks prestigious and elegant. So I want to say a lot more thanks to the Japanese constructors. Figures and arrows on, see pretty easy.

As a result, I want to say that Solano can safely be called a good car, and let it be made not for a ride ride, but not yet lovers of extreme races. Someone prefers smooth moving, like on a cruise ship. This car floats on the highway, with ease at the same time coping with various sidebuins. It has a long-time suspension, in one word for the summer house, you will not find anything. Capacity trunk about 400 - liters. But this volume can be increased if the backs of the rear seat are folded in the proportion of 40:60. And the last advantage is the price.

Overview Lifan Solano with a 1.6-liter engine

Lifan Solano - Auto with excellent characteristics for low cost

In the overall parameters, the machine looks very solid and attractive than the younger brother in the model line, which is called - breeze. It also would also like to note that this model is distinguished by a more spacious and comfortable salon, and, of course, a rich inner "technical filling".

I would like to note that the car of this model is slightly longer, the model of the Breeze. But the trunk became roomy and spacious, it is impossible not to evaluate the quality. It is for this reason that the car today is particularly popular among dachensors for which the trunk plays a lot. Thus, acquiring this model of the car, it can be said with confidence that not only dackets, but all who prefer a quiet and quiet ride will be satisfied with the choice. They will also be amazed by the price of Lifan Solano - in comparison with other auto auto-class.

The car is equipped with an adjustable steering column, fog lights, alarm, central locking, etc. On the car are installed cast, which have 15 inches.

Test Drive Lifan Solano 620

If you compare with the torsion design of the Breeze model, I confidently want to say that the suspension is made at the highest level. And in this you can make sure to acquire this model of the car.

It should also be reminded that since the autumn of 2010, some changes and additions occurred in the engine line. It is worth noting that the new Lifan engine is equipped with a 1.8 liter engine, which boldly develops 137 horsepower. Moreover, now the car is available in the top-optation, which is present.

As well as the Breeze model, the new Lithuanian Solano for the Russian market is produced at the Deriver Plant, which is located in Cherkessk. As modern practice shows, this enterprise easily produces up to 25 thousand cars per year, which is a very, impressive number. In the Russian market, the price of Lifan Solano in the basic configuration is 355.000 rubles.

So let's first consider some pluses of Lifan Solano with a 1.8 liter engine, as well as 1.6.

Appearance and interior

Salon and body, as well as everything else from Solana has not changed. Just stuck another motor in it, the same as on x60.

Yes, the appearance of Lifan Solano can be said that stylish and elegant, although not much different from Toyota Corols in the 120th body. But this, damn it, already outdated design !!! On Solano LED dimensions and LED stop signals. This is a plus, moreover, they say that the LEDs consume significantly less energy, which means that theory should not discharge the battery.

Another good function is to disable almost all consumers when the ignition is turned off. Even the signal and the cigarette lighter turns off, goes out of the near light and tumanka, but the all-dimensions remain burning. There is a car mode, but in this mode the light turns on when the darkness occurs and turns off when it becomes light enough. The salon itself is spacious and comfortable, here without complaints. With the same prior, do not compare, the Chinese have better in the cabin.

Priora - in appearance is not very different from dozens, so to speak the final version. In the cabin priors everything is quite simple and without delights, a little boring.

The 1.8 engine on Solano has an aluminum block of cylinders, which, again, makes it unrepretentious. The hydrocomathers on the motor are missing, the valve adjustment is carried out by selecting the thickness of the pushers. The engine is equipped with VVT. GRM drive on this engine chain, which, according to Chinese manufacturers, improves reliability. And according to their Japanese colleagues, it allows to reduce the size of the motor (already on 2 centimeters)

In general, this is again the same 1zz-Fe, it seems no more motors for them yet ... more about this motor can be read in the article a. Only on Solano, it is more similar to the engine from Lifan X60, because he has an electronic gas pedal.

The table shows that the torque of the priory is higher than that of Solano 1.6. And this means that from the place of the prior can easily go forward, leaving the Chinese to dust on the traffic light. Prior actually loses to Lifan 1.6 only in digits acceleration to hundreds. But this parameter is a bit controversial, remember when the Chinese tape recorders went, the power was measured in PMPO and showed just fantastic figures from 3000 watts and above

Well, less horses - less tax. Now, if you really compare two these cars, I wonder who - who?

About Solano 1,8.

200 km per hour on Solano can go or a fool or suicide! This car, even with a 1.6 engine, does not really hold the road, such a feeling that the suspension in the car was just stuck. There were no tests, developments, refinements ... There was no binding to the engine and steering. After 120 km, it becomes scary, Solano holds very bad road. Actually prior is also not a standard in this matter.
