Change the oil in the Vesta engine according to the manufacturer's recommendations - once every 15,000 kilometers. If the quality of gasoline is low or harsh conditions operation, oil change intervals and oil filter it is better to reduce it to 10,000 kilometers.

Changing the oil on a LADA Vesta is quite simple. installed on this car are already well known to us and there are no specific oil changes here. The only caveat is that it is difficult to get to the engine oil filter both from above and from below. To remove it, you need or hang it front wheel or remove the standard crankcase protection. By the way, the protection has a hole for drain plug, so there will be no problems draining the old oil.

When to change the oil on a Lada Vesta engine

We recommend reducing this figure to 10,000 kilometers. Firstly, high-quality oil Russian market very few, many fakes that will have a detrimental effect on engine wear. Secondly, long engine warm-ups (many drivers love them, despite the manufacturer’s recommendations to shorten the warm-up time) occur during parking. The engine is running and the mileage is good. And thirdly, the manufacturer recommends synthetic oils from Lukoil and Rosneft, and most drivers do not pay attention to the brand of oil, using only the brand as a guide.

It is important to remember that oil quality can vary even from one manufacturer to another.

What kind of oil to fill in Lada Vesta

On this moment LADA Vesta is equipped only with petrol power plants. It's hard to make a mistake with the engine type. But with a brand of oil you can.

We have already described how to distinguish a fake in the article: .

It is best to pour high-quality oil into your car, recommended by the manufacturer. The manufacturer has opted for synthetic motor oils. They have greater viscosity and retain their properties longer. operational properties and better tolerate low and high temperatures.

When adding oil to the engine, it is important to consider what kind of oil is already in it. It is best to use oil from one manufacturer, one type and one viscosity. In this case it can be guaranteed that various additives will not react with each other.

When mixing different oils there is a risk of getting oil with very poor characteristics.

When changing the oil completely, you can change the manufacturer and viscosity of the oil.

Table of acceptable oils for different engines by viscosity, oil volume in the Lada Vesta engine.

Excerpt from the Vesta instruction manual:

When the engine is running, engine oil consumption is normal. The amount of oil consumption depends on the driving style of the car and is determined by the engine load and rotation speed crankshaft. IN initial period operation, oil consumption is slightly increased. Therefore, regularly, especially before long trips, you should check the oil level in the engine crankcase. Check the oil level when cold engine not running when the car is on a horizontal surface.

The level should be between the MIN and MAX marks on the oil level indicator or between the upper and lower edges of the grooved surface of the indicator, depending on the engine model. If necessary, oil is added through the neck, which is closed with a plug. After topping up, the oil level should be checked no earlier than three minutes so that the added portion of oil has time to drain into the crankcase. For correct measurement, it is necessary to insert the oil level indicator into its installation hole until it stops.

ATTENTION! The oil level in the engine crankcase must not exceed the MAX mark on the oil level indicator.

Otherwise, oil will enter the combustion chamber through the crankcase ventilation system and be released into the atmosphere along with exhaust gases, and oil combustion products may lead to failure of the converter.

After purchase, any new car should be used carefully, as parts are worn in. The duration of this period and precautions depend on the manufacturer and the specific model. New car from AvtoVAZ, the Lada Vesta is equipped with both engines that have been in production for a long time (the running-in process of which has already been worked out), and a new product developed specifically for it. Therefore, the recommendations for operating the car during the first thousand kilometers contain features that its owners should take into account.

General requirements for operating new Lada cars

According to the operating manuals of all passenger cars Lada brand their running-in lasts no more than two thousand kilometers of operating time. During this period, the following rules should be observed:

1. Do not tow trailers or cars.
2. After reaching a thousand kilometers of operating time, check the bolted fastenings of the wheels, and if any leaks are detected, tighten them.
3. For vehicles with manual transmission, do not overload the engine by changing gears in a timely manner, in accordance with the road conditions.
4. Do not execute quick start from a standstill, especially with activated manual braking device and don't turn around high speed slipping engine front axle, since these actions can damage the cross-axle differential.
5. Observe speed mode according to the recommendations given in Figure No. 1.

New tires, brake pads and the discs and clutch begin to work normally only after the break-in is completed. The first five hundred kilometers should be driven at moderate speeds, avoiding significant acceleration. If the above elements are replaced, the running-in recommendations should be repeated.

Special requirements for running Vesta

1. It is allowed to adhere to the speed limit according to the table shown in Figure 1 until the vehicle reaches two thousand kilometers.
2. When driving, maintain engine speed less than three and a half thousand revolutions per minute.
3. Do not exceed the relative difference value braking forces rear wheels by more than 35%.
4. After the break-in is completed, the engine speed and maximum speed must be increased gradually.

It should be noted that running Vesta with robotic box transmission is performed according to the same recommendations as for a car with a manual transmission.

Among car enthusiasts there is no consensus on the need for break-in; some follow the guidelines in full, while others ignore this procedure. However, most buyers new Vesta We agree that until reaching two thousand kilometers, the engine speed should be limited to 3000 rpm and sudden acceleration should be avoided. If the car is rolled into winter time, then you need to warm it up well before you start driving.

As for the break-in place, experienced car owners prefer to avoid streets with constant traffic jams. After all, when you get into such road conditions you have to constantly stop and start again. The correct process of grinding in parts requires smooth, measured operation of the engine.

In addition to following the operating rules new Lada Vestas, some car enthusiasts prefer to change the engine oil after the break-in period, arguing that during the active grinding of parts, metal shavings get into the oil, which will quickly ruin it.

Like most new cars, a Vesta purchased at a dealership may have various problems and problems. Thus, car enthusiasts sometimes have to deal with some “nervousness” of the car when changing gears - there are jerks and dives. You shouldn’t be afraid of this behavior; according to Vesta owners, the problem goes away after about a thousand kilometers, the car begins to behave calmly, and elasticity appears in operation. power unit. In addition, a loud clicking sound from the absorber valve may occur; according to AvtoVAZ managers, the problem occurs when low-quality fuel is poured.

To summarize, it is worth noting that until the last kilometers of running-in have been completed, you should not overload the Lada Vesta. After all, this is what this process– enable moving, rubbing parts to gradually smooth out each other’s unevenness to achieve optimal operating parameters. In a properly run-in car, the gaps in the mechanisms will be minimal, the compression and engine power will increase, and fuel consumption will be significantly reduced.

Lada Vesta- most technological car AvtoVAZ company today. The car is equipped with proven power plants - 16-valve petrol engines with a volume of 1.6 and 1.8. Their power is 106 and 122 horsepower respectively. These engines are considered the most durable in the entire AvtoVAZ line, but they must be serviced regularly. One of the integral parts of quality service is mandatory replacement suitable motor oil. In this article we will look at what oil the manufacturer recommends for Lada Vesta.

• Synthetics - this type of oil is obtained through various chemical compounds– additives and plasticizers that are designed to reduce friction regardless of weather conditions
• Semi-synthetics - derived by mixing artificially obtained and natural sets of additives.
• Mineral oil - this oil is obtained from petroleum

Pure synthetic is an oil with the highest viscosity that it cannot offer mineral lubricant. It is worth noting the fact that it is better to fill 16-valve engines with “non-mineral water,” namely synthetics or semi-synthetics. These oils have the most optimal chemical composition, which has a positive effect on the frequency of replacement (fill much less frequently). The fact is that synthetics have excellent resistance to temperatures from – (minus) 40 to +50 degrees. Mineral product – complete opposite. This lubricant freezes very quickly and loses its beneficial properties.

The best oils for Lada Vesta

1. Society Of Automotive Engineers (SAE) - compliance with a standard regulated by the community of American engineers
2. The remaining numbers indicate the operating temperature range

Please note that specified oils poured into Lada Vesta during conveyor production. Properties SAE oils 5W30 and SAE5W40 are such that they are very resistant to temperatures from -(minus) 35 to +35 degrees. Thus, this can explain the fact that Lada Vesta starts perfectly in almost all climatic zones of Russia and Europe.

The Togliatti concern recommends filling Vesta with oils of the Lukoil and Rosneft brands. These are the most recognized domestic brands in which AvtoVAZ has the highest degree of trust.

Foreign products

Of the most popular foreign oils, we can recommend Mobil, Motul Specific Dexo S2 and Shell Helix HX8.

Which is better - imported or Russian?

IN in this case the choice is up to the owners themselves. Domestic brand usually cheaper, but this does not mean that it is of lower quality. After all, Russia is one of the leaders not only in terms of oil production, but also in the production of motor oils.

Oil level control

It is important to remember that not only a lack of lubricant is detrimental to the engine, but also its excess. So, in the second case, vapors can enter the combustion chamber through the breather, which can cause failure of the entire Euro-5 environmental system.

Today we will tell you what oil to pour into the Lada Vesta engine. Which oil manufacturers are better not to use at all? How often to change the oil in Lada car Vesta. Let's see how oils from different manufacturers differ

What kind of oil to fill

At the moment, Lada Vesta is equipped only with gasoline engines. Accordingly, you need to select the oil for gasoline engines with minimal mileage.

It is definitely better to pour synthetic motor oil into Vesta, for many reasons. Synthetic oil has a high viscosity, in mineral oils there is no way to implement this. Synthetics retain their performance properties much better over time (it is possible to change them less often). Synthetic oil better tolerates high and low temperatures. That is, it cools faster when heated and accelerates better at low temperatures (you need to take into account the additives in the oil).

When using one engine oil, before filling or when replacing with a fresh one, it is better to use the same manufacturer, oil type and viscosity. Due to the fact that manufacturers use various additives and chemicals when creating motor oil, one cannot be completely sure what reaction will follow after mixing different oils. We strongly recommend pouring only oil from the same manufacturer and the same viscosity into Vesta. If the oil is completely drained, little other viscosity can be used.

Oil manufacturers and viscosity

The car manufacturer recommends adding oil domestic producers such as Rosneft and Lukoil. By the way, motor oil from these manufacturers is poured onto dealer centers when servicing. It is recommended to fill the Lada Vesta with oil:

• Lukoil LUX with viscosity 5w40
• Rosneft with viscosity 5w40

Lukoil Lux 5w40

Rosneft 5w40

There are many discussions on the Internet on the topic of motor oils and specifically on the topic of Lukoil or Rosneft. We have not conducted laboratory tests, but mistrust of these oils remains.

If you want the engine to be more pleasing with its torque and good dynamics, in order to avoid additional repairs during maintenance, we strongly recommend using imported motor oils.

• Mobil with viscosity 5w30
• Mobil with viscosity 5w40
• Mobil with viscosity 0w40
• Motul SpecificDEXO s2 with viscosity 5w30
• Shell HELIX HX8 with viscosity 5w30

How often to change the oil in the West.

In the Lada Vesta service manual, the manufacturer recommends changing the oil every 15 thousand kilometers. Again, it's all up to you how long you want to own the car and how to operate it. With (constantly high speeds and dynamic driving), we advise changing the engine oil no later than 10 thousand kilometers, and even better from 7-10 thousand. Then the engine will delight you with its roar for a long time.
