How many engine oil is necessary for the engine

Having bought a vehicle, it is required to carry out a timely maintenance. Motor oil change in the engine is one of those procedures that must be carried out.

How much lifting lubricants how to make a choice of oil product how to check the amount of oil fluid? All you need to know to efficiently operate your own car.

Motor car

The key component of the engine in the engine is the main liquid. She may be:

• mineralka (recycled oil);
• semi-synthetic (mineral water mixture with synthetics);
• synthetics (produced in the laboratory).

Also lubricants differ in viscosity index and additives. Many motorists prefer semi-synthetic petroleum products, as they have the best value and quality ratio.

Pouring oil into the engine is necessary to reduce the friction of contacting spare parts, for example, cylinder pistons. Viscosity shows what a consistency is lubricant in certain temperature conditions. According to SAE marking, you can understand what is the low and high temperature limit of the car. According to the API, petroleum products are divided into two categories: S (for motors on gasoline) and C (for the engines on the diesel).

For the power unit to be easy to start in cold conditions, various factors should be taken into account. Most of the lubricants used in the Russian Federation are universal. However, experts are confident that in the winter in the engine it is necessary to pour oil fluid, different from summer.

By choosing lubricant, be sure to take into account the recommendations of the automaker, the power and wear of the engine, the date of the manufacture of the car, the intensity of operation. For example, if the machine is in the warm room and is operated only sometimes, then the consumable consuming is not required into it.

How to determine how much car pour

To determine how much butter needs to be poured into the engine, look at the operational guide. For Russian cars equipped with a power unit by 1.8-2.5 liters, there will be enough 3.5 liters of car. First, there are 3 liters, then, after a couple of minutes and after the measurement, a top of the desired amount of oil is carried out.

Moscomers need more oil fluid - approximately 4.3 liters. The topping is performed by the same method as the refueling of Russian cars.

In the passenger cars, engine oil should be replaced every 15-25 thousand kilometers. It is necessary to take into account the style of driving, type and indicators of fuel. The listed factors affect the replacement time. If the oil is operated for a very long time, do not allow its overheating. High temperature conditions negatively affect the properties of petroleum products.

What to do if the power unit "eats" lubrication

When the motor "eats" by the machine, it can be simply adding little to it. However, the problem will not disappear, but only temporarily move away. Sooner or later you will have to fully inspect and repair the engine. If the increased consumption of lubrication is not related to its quality, then the reason may be in exhaust, seeding through a bad seal.

Rouge just to detect, turning attention to the shade of the exhaust. If the blue gases, it means, the problem is in the oil-circulation rings. Eliminate the malfunction is possible, completely changed the oilmaging and compression rings.

Also, the cause of decreasing filling volume can be various sealing elements, lining. Seals made of rubber gradually lose their own properties. Lubrication usually proceeds in the crankcase and cylinder block sections.

The volume of oil in the engine can be reduced due to damaged seals of the crankshaft and camshaft of the car. To learn about leakage, it is possible, noticing traces that appear on the site of the car.

Reaching signs of reduction of lubrication, immediately go to a specialized service. The sooner you notice the problem, the cheaper the repair work will cost.

What volume of oil should be spent during the operation of the car? For every 15-20 thousand kilometers should be spent from 100 to 200 ml of oil fluid. Of course, increased lubrication costs usually do not lead to the emergence of significant problems. However, you should not ignore this. Due to the worn rings, the power of the power unit decreases, fuel costs increase.

Other causes of leakage

To how many liters of oil pour into the engine, the following affects:

• breakdown of the inlet manifold control system;
• loss of tightness indicator of the amount of lubrication;
• depressurization of the oil filter;
• exceeding the volume of the car included in the motor when replacing;
• prolonged idle of the vehicle (the longer the car costs, the stronger the seals are breathed);
• bad ventilation.

When we merge the lubricant, check it out. How many oil is included in the motor when pouring - approximately the same should be fused.

In the operational manual, the automatic manufacturer necessarily prescribes how much oil is in the engine. He also indicates his tolerances that need to be taken into account when choosing a petroleum product. There are tolerances "Man", "BMW", "Mercedes", "Toyota". Trucks "Man" are very popular in the territory of the Russian Federation.

Remember that the automaker better knows the rest of the amount of lubrication to enter the motor when filling. It indicates this information in the operational manual. First of all, you need to rely on the information contained in it. If troubleshooting, you can try to eliminate them yourself. If you are not sure that you have enough skills and knowledge, contact a specialized service. His workers will fulfill all the necessary procedures related to the maintenance and repair of your vehicle.
