Lada Kalina Sedan ★★★•2007•★★★ › Logbook › Oil change.
Hello, dear readers and NOT!
.
I decided to change the oil after 6,000 km. Since Essa was previously flooded, I looked for it all over the city, but never found it. It turns out that Mobil is now being produced instead. After thinking for a long time whether to buy it, or something more expensive, I thought... I thought for a long time... I finally decided to take it, Mobil ULTRA 10W/40, 4 l, semi-synthetic
.
I won’t describe the oil change, since there’s nothing to describe there, even everyone can handle it, BUT, so that the entry doesn’t seem too empty, I’ll take information from the Internet (a few of my photos have been added).
Procedure for changing engine oil on Kalina
First of all, you immediately need to decide on the right tool so that everything is at hand and you don’t have to look for anything, although you need a minimum of keys.
➀ A 17mm wrench, preferably a socket or head - if you have a plug with outer edges for a regular wrench.➁ A 12mm hexagon, if the plug is in a pan with internal edges.➂ A puller for removing the oil filter, if one is needed at all, as in most In some cases, it can be easily unscrewed by hand.
Work progress
✓ First of all, you need to warm up the Lada Kalina engine to operating temperature, although 70-80 degrees will be quite enough. ✓ Take a container to drain the old oil and place it under the engine sump. For this purpose, I used an old 5-liter bottle, cutting off the side part.✓ Unscrew the pan plug with a 17mm wrench or a hex key, depending on which one you have screwed in
✓We place the drain container in such a way that the used oil gets into it; you should not shit on the ground. As you can see in the photo below, I was sent a film that I don’t mind throwing away later.
✓ After waiting about 10 minutes until all the old oil has drained, unscrew the oil filter, which is located on the left side, almost at the very bottom of the engine (for those who are performing this procedure for the first time). It must be unscrewed by hand. If the oil filter does not unscrew, you can wrap it with a dry cloth, this will be even easier. If you cannot remove it, you need to use a special puller.
✓ After this, you again need to crawl under the car and now screw the plug back into the pan.✓ First, we tighten the plug by hand and then tighten it thoroughly with a hexagon, but you don’t need to overdo it, otherwise you’ll suffer during the subsequent replacement.✓ Immediately after this, take a new oil filter and pour a little oil into it, according to the recommendation of technical specialists, half of its capacity.
✓ Then, lightly lubricate the rubber band of the filter on top and then you can screw it into place. When installing, do not tighten it with any tools, but use only your hands!✓ Now you can start filling in new oil. To do this, you need to unscrew the filler plug, and the upper plastic casing on the engine does not need to be removed, although it may get in the way when replacing the filter. So it’s better to remove it in advance by simply pulling it up with a little force, after unscrewing the cap.✓ Open a new canister and fill the required oil level into the Kalina engine.✓ You need to navigate by the dipstick so that the lubricant level is between the MAX and MIN marks. On a 1.6 8-cl engine this is approximately 3 liters.
✓ Insert the dipstick into place and tighten the filler plug. That's the whole procedure, start the engine and wait until the pressure light goes out, usually this happens within a couple of seconds. Don’t forget to change the oil on your car on time, and your power unit will work for a long time and properly.
Procedure for changing Lada Kalina (engine) oil
When to change the oil on Kalina? On Kalina, according to the regulations, the engine oil must be changed every 15 thousand kilometers. We carry out the replacement with the engine not running, preferably immediately after the trip, before the oil has cooled down. |
You will need : drive the car into the inspection hole (the engine must be warmed up), prepare a “17” key, an oil filter remover, a screwdriver and a container of at least 4 liters.
First you need to drain the engine oil and to do this you need:
- Unscrew the oil filler cap.
- Clean dirt from the bottom of the car around the oil drain plug. And then loosen the plug using a 17mm spanner.
Place a container with a volume of at least 4 liters under the hole for draining used oil, and then unscrew the plug.
Drain the oil for at least 10 minutes, then tighten the plug, clearing it of oil and dirt. We also clean the oil pan from oil drips. Now you need to remove the oil filter , but first do not forget to place a container under it. To avoid damaging the wiring, it is recommended to disconnect the block with wires from the crankshaft position sensor. Unscrew the Kalina oil filter counterclockwise using a puller. If there is no oil filter remover, then you can use a screwdriver as a lever, breaking through the filter housing with it (closer to the bottom so as not to damage the engine fitting).
Before installing the oil filter, you need to fill it with new engine oil, fill it to half the volume. Then lubricate the oil filter sealing ring with the same oil and screw the filter in by hand until the sealing ring comes into contact with the cylinder block. Then turn it another 3/4 turn.
How much oil is in Kalina's engine? The oil volume in the engine lubrication system is 3.5 liters, but about 500 ml. oil still remains in the engine, so we fill in new engine oil through the oil filler neck in a volume of 3 liters. Screw the neck cap clockwise. We start the engine for 1-2 minutes and make sure that the indicator of insufficient (emergency) oil pressure in the engine has gone off in the instrument cluster and that there are no leaks from under the plug and filter.
Examination . We stop the engine, wait a few minutes for the oil to drain into the oil pan and check the oil level in Kalina using a dipstick. If necessary, adjust the level to normal (between the “MIN” and “MAX” marks). If necessary, tighten the oil filter and drain plug.
Changing the Kalina oil is carried out without an assistant within 15 minutes. The procedure is simple, however, doing it yourself may void your warranty. If the process described above is not clear, then you can watch a video on changing the oil in Kalina:
By the way, do you know which engine oil to choose for Kalina?

Changing engine oil Lada Kalina
LADA Kalina is a Russian production of AvtoVAZ. The first generation was produced from 2004 to 2013. In 2013, production of the first generation was stopped due to the transition of the conveyor to the second generation. At the moment the line has two generations. The second generation went on sale in 2013.
Lada Kalina was produced in four variations.
- Engine 1.4 l 16 valves, Euro-3, 4 standardization;
- Engine 1.6 l 8 valves, Euro-2, 3 standard;
- Engine 1.6 l 8 valves, Euro-4;
- Engine 1.6 l 16 valves, with Euro-3, 4 standard, luxury version.
No matter how reliable a car is, no matter what country it is produced in, Japan or Russia, absolutely all cars need servicing. The manufacturer of this car recommends performing maintenance in the form of a complete replacement of the engine engine (and filters) every 15,000 km. In practice, car owners try to service as early as the 8th (plus or minus) thousand.
Many people share advice that it is better to buy cheap oil and change it faster than to drive all 15,000 km on an expensive one.
Oil change on Lada Kalina
- Fill in new oil. To do this, open the hood lid. Place a funnel in the filler neck of the valve cover. We begin to fill in new oil.
Attention! There should not be more oil in the engine than necessary. In this case, the excess oil will have to be drained. Therefore, immediately fill in 2 liters of oil, and then check its level using the dipstick.
- We take out the dipstick for the first time, wipe it and insert it back. Immediately after that we take it out again and look at the “minimum” and “maximum” marks. The oil level should be set exactly in the middle, between o and “maximum”. If the level is insufficient, add more.
- After the oil level is brought to the optimum level, start the car and wait for the oil pressure light to go out. After a minute, we turn off the car and wait for the new oil to drain into the engine sump. Check the oil level again. It should become smaller, as the new oil poured will spread throughout the system and fill the filter. Therefore, we add another 200–300 grams to bring the level to the average mark. That's it, the oil change in the Kalina engine has been completed.
You can learn more about changing the oil and how often to change the oil in Kalina in the article “How often should you change the oil in a car engine?”
"LADA Kalina" are popular domestic cars in sedan and hatchback bodies, which were produced by AvtoVAZ OJSC from 2004 to 2013. Then the second generation models were launched into production - LADA Kalina 2 (hatchback and station wagon body styles). Changing the oil on Kalina is a mandatory procedure carried out during routine maintenance and largely determines the reliability and durability of the vehicle.
The rules for the maintenance of cars of the Kalina family (first and second generations) require periodic replacement of used motor oil, in common parlance “working out”, in power units and stipulate that it should be carried out no later than through:
- 3000 km (first replacement);
- every 15,000 km traveled or once a year thereafter.
Installing a new filter
The old filter element should be unscrewed. This can be done without resorting to special devices. Although there are situations when you can’t just unscrew it by hand. Then a puller will come in handy.
Fill the new filter with a little oil, lubricate the sealing ring with it and put the element in place. There is no need to be particularly zealous here. The filter screws in easily.
Preparing a new filter
Now, at the last stage of work, you need to fill in fresh oil. To facilitate the process, insert a funnel into the oil filler neck. It is necessary to fill gradually, without exceeding the norm.
Adding new lubricant to the engine
Regardless of the number of valves (16 or 3.5 liters of motor fluid will be required in the Lada Kalina engine.
When finished, tighten the neck cap.
After starting the engine, you need to let it run until the pressure light stops flashing. Check the oil level after stopping the engine. It should be between the maximum and minimum value marks on the dipstick in the crankcase. Do-it-yourself replacement of fuel and lubricants in a Lada engine was carried out successfully!

- Straight box spanner 17 mm
- Torque wrench
- Oil filter puller
- Medium flat screwdriver
Parts and consumables:
- Engine oil 3 liters
- Oil filter
- Rags
- Wide capacity, at least 4 liters
Notes:
In addition to the listed tools, to perform work under the machine, you need to find a convenient inspection ditch or overpass.
The operation should be performed on a warm engine immediately after the trip, until the oil has cooled down.
1. We place the car on an inspection ditch or overpass.
2. Unscrew the oil filler cap. From the bottom of the car, we clean the oil pan from dirt around the drain plug.
3. Using a spanner wrench or a 17mm socket, loosen the drain plug.
4. We place a wide container for waste oil with a volume of at least 4 liters under the hole and unscrew the plug manually and drain the oil. Drain the oil for at least 10 minutes. After wiping the plug, screw it in and tighten it to a torque of 35-45 Nm. We remove oil leaks from the engine oil pan.
5. Place a container under the oil filter. To avoid damage, disconnect the wiring harness from the crankshaft position sensor. Unscrew (counterclockwise) the oil filter. If this cannot be done manually, loosen the filter with a puller.
6. If there is no puller, we pierce the filter housing with a screwdriver (closer to the bottom, so as not to damage the engine fitting) and unscrew the filter, using the screwdriver as a lever.
7. We clean the filter seat on the cylinder block from dirt and oil drips.
8. Fill the filter with fresh engine oil to about half its volume and apply engine oil to the filter O-ring. We wrap the oil filter by hand until the sealing ring comes into contact with the cylinder block. Turn the filter another 3/4 turn to seal the connection.
9. Pour 3 liters of oil into the engine through the oil filler neck. Screw the neck cap clockwise.
10. We start the engine for 1-2 minutes. Make sure that the indicator of insufficient (emergency) oil pressure in the engine goes out on the instrument cluster and that no leaks are observed under the plug.

Do-it-yourself oil change in a Lada Kalina box - step-by-step instructions
2. For convenience, I removed the crankcase protection; this is not necessary, but it’s more convenient for me.
4. Then take the key to “17” and unscrew the gearbox drain plug. Be careful and careful the oil may be HOT!
5. It will take approximately 10-15 minutes for the oil to drain completely.
6. Now you need to tighten the plug and proceed directly to the oil change procedure, that is, to fill in new, clean transmission oil.
!!! Advice: for better and more comfortable shifting of fifth gear, I recommend pouring in a little more oil so that the level is slightly above the middle of the “inter-label” space, that is, closer to the upper level
Attention, this is just advice, you can fill strictly according to the level, this is your personal business! When new oil is poured in and the level is checked, tighten the filler neck and you can safely go wash your hands, because the oil change in the Lada Kalina gearbox is complete.

Replacing the oil filter and oil in the Lada Kalina engine with your own hands
Changing engine oil is an important procedure, sometimes messy, sometimes unpleasant, but always doable. You need to change the engine oil every 7-10 thousand mileage, but it all depends on how and under what conditions the car is used. You can find a more accurate answer in the owner's manual for your car. Today we’ll talk about how to change the oil in a Lada Kalina engine with your own hands.
Guests of VAZ Repair already know how to change the oil in a VAZ 2106 engine, as well as how to change the oil in a VAZ 2108 gearbox; today’s case is not much different.
Before you begin you need to:
- Find clothes that you don’t mind getting dirty;
- And, of course, buy new engine oil and oil filter Lada Kalina;
- Container volume 5 liters;
- The key is "17".
Find a viewing hole;
When should you change your engine oil?
It is not always clear to beginners how often to change engine oil. As a result, they delay their work. The result is excessive contamination of the lubricating fluid, reduced engine life and new breakdowns.
That is why it is so important to carry out the necessary work in a timely manner
The timing of filling new oil depends on a number of parameters:
- The age of the car and the condition of the power unit.
- Machine operating activities.
- Driving manners.
- Seasonality of vehicle operation.
- Quality of oil and gasoline.
If the car is new, then the first oil change on a viburnum should be done after about three thousand kilometers. In the future, filling should be done as needed, but at least every 10-15 thousand kilometers.
Please note that the timing largely depends on the quality of the oil. For example, mineral water should be changed every 5-7 thousand kilometers, and synthetics – 10-15.
Filter selection
According to the standard, the car is equipped with products located in the city of Orel. The search filter number is 21080-1012005-08. The distrust of car owners in domestic products is reflected in the fact that most often they choose imported analogues for replacement. It is believed that they are of higher quality and have a wide service life.
Products with the following article numbers are suitable:
- 21050-1012005-00;
- 21080-1012005-00;
- 21080-1012005-09.
The following models of oil filters for Lada Kalina are popular among car owners:
- PURFLUX LS149, LS285;
- WIX FILTERS WL7168;
- HENGST FILTER H12W05;
- MANN-FILTER W 914/2;
- MANN+HUMMEL MUHW92021, MUHW9202110;
- BOSCH 0 451 103 060, 0 451 103 126.
Products cost $2-$5 depending on the model.
One of the most expensive filters is MANN W 914/2 - it costs about 4–5 dollars from different sellers. At the same time, the model is the most popular on the market today. This is due to the trust car owners have in the manufacturer and the high quality of the part. But there is also a drawback - these filters are most often counterfeited.
Replacement frequency
According to the official manual from AvtoVAZ, the engine oil on Kalina 2 (second generation), as on the first generation, should be changed once a year or every 15 thousand kilometers.
But such figures are indicated subject to moderate use and light loads. Taking into account the condition of the roads, the aggressive driving style of some drivers, as well as the poor quality of fuel poured into the Kalina, the actual interval between fluid changes is 8 - 10 thousand kilometers.
Consider the conditions under which your Lada Kalina is operated. The following factors actively shorten the interval between replacing consumables:
- use of low-quality gasoline and oil;
- purchasing cheap spare parts and consumables;
- aggressive driving style;
- bad expensive;
- sudden temperature changes;
- prolonged idleness of the car in a garage or open parking lot;
- engine operation under load;
- frequent driving with a trailer, etc.
All this affects how often the engine oil needs to be changed. Although Kalina is maximally adapted for harsh operating conditions, problems will arise in the engine if consumables are not changed in a timely manner and obvious signs of incipient malfunctions are ignored.
Therefore, it is better to monitor the level and condition of the oil individually. If you notice that the engine has begun to perform worse, fuel consumption has increased with a simultaneous drop in power, it is better to change the lubricant and check the condition of the power unit. There may be problems.
By observing the correct frequency of oil changes in the Lada Kalina car engine, you will significantly extend its service life and protect yourself from expensive repairs.
Oil level and condition
Every car owner must know how to check the oil level and assess its current condition. The procedure takes a little time. But for an objective assessment, rely on the following instructions:
- remove the oil dipstick, which is located in the engine compartment near the engine;
- wipe it with a lint-free cloth;
- insert the dipstick into place;
- pull out the meter again.
The dipstick has marks for the minimum and maximum levels of the working fluid. Ideally, the oil film should be located exactly between them. If the level tends to a minimum, then you need to add lubricant.
But it is important to pay attention to the condition of the oil in Kalina. To check it, you can go in 2 ways:
- completely drain the oil from the crankcase;
- check the condition using a dipstick.
If the scheduled replacement date is approaching, but you don’t want to drain the fluid yet, use the dipstick. Warm up the engine for a few minutes. This will cause sediment to rise. Remove the dipstick and blot off any remaining oil with a clean white napkin or rag.
When the working fluid wears out, it becomes cloudy, dark and has obvious traces of chip impurities. In this condition, it must be changed, otherwise further operation of the engine with worn oil will lead to serious breakdowns and expensive repairs.
Filling with lubricant
Now you can start filling the engine with new oil:
Oil filler plug
- First of all, the filler plug is unscrewed;
- The plastic casing located on top of the engine does not need to be removed, although it may interfere with the process of replacing the filter. Therefore, it is better to remove it in advance. To do this, just unscrew the cap and then simply pull it up, applying a little force.
- then a new canister is opened, and the required level of automobile oil is poured into the car engine.
You need to be guided by the dipstick: the lubricant level should be located between the MIN and MAX marks. In the case of Kalina engines, the volume is approximately three liters.
- the dipstick is inserted into place, after which you can tighten the filler plug.
This completes the procedure for changing the oil in the Lada Kalina car. All that remains is to start the engine and wait until the pressure indicator light goes out. This usually happens within a few seconds. The main thing is to promptly replace the oil and oil filters on your car. This will allow the power unit to work as long and efficiently as possible.

Functions of oil and oil filter in an internal combustion engine (ICE)
The design and operating principle of the internal combustion engine assume constant mutual friction of metal parts. Motor oil is designed to lubricate them. By covering these elements with a protective film, the oil minimizes friction between them, thereby extending the life of the engine. However, this is not its only useful quality.
Motor oil has:
• anti-corrosion properties – prevents corrosion of internal engine parts made of non-ferrous metals; • cleaning properties – cleans the surfaces of engine parts from fuel combustion products and various varnish deposits (and the lower the quality of the fuel, the more of these products there are); • energy-saving properties - depending on the oil class and operating mode of the car, they can save up to 2.5% of energy (a trifle, but nice); • dispersing properties - creating a shell around the particles of pollution, the oil prevents them from settling and sticking to the surfaces of the engine, leaving them in suspension. In addition, the oil acts as a kind of conditioner, removing excess heat from the working parts of the engine into the oil pan.
Properties of motor oil
And yet, the most important function of engine oil is to remove organic and inorganic impurities formed in the engine. The former are formed as a result of fuel combustion, as well as transformation processes of the oil itself, and the latter are products of natural wear and tear of the power unit and foreign fragments (dust, ash, etc.) entering it from the outside. The oil absorbs all these impurities, which, of course, causes it to become dirty and lose its properties. First of all, for this reason, this substance must be periodically completely drained, replacing it with clean one. In addition, there are a number of other negative factors that, although less significant, can still at times significantly affect the oil change interval. Along with the oil in the car, the oil filter is also changed, which traps the largest impurities contained in the oil. But how often should you change the engine oil?
Replacing the oil filter
The oil filter is located on the lower right behind the engine. Before changing the oil in the Kalina engine and the oil filter, first warm up the engine to operating temperature.
- We place the car on the pit or lift it on a lift and wait 15 minutes. so that the oil flows into the engine sump.
- First you need to unscrew the oil pan drain plug. This can be done with key No. 17. You should prepare a container in advance for used oil, which will drain through the drain hole. Unscrew the plug counterclockwise. We do this carefully so as not to burn ourselves with hot oil or get dirty. Fine. Wait 15 minutes until all the oil has drained.
- While the oil is draining, unscrew the oil filter. This can be done with a special puller, a belt, or simply a large screwdriver, breaking through the filter. In our case, this is a puller. To avoid getting dirty, it is advisable to place a rag under the filter, near the engine block, as some oil will also spill out of it.
What is needed for replacement?
Many owners of domestically produced VAZ cars are smart and go to a service station as a last resort. This is quite justified, since many repairs and maintenance work can be done independently. Changing the oil in the Lada Kalina gearbox can be done independently. You will need a small set of tools and some free time. To work you will need the following:
- A 17mm wrench (preferably a ring one, as it is more convenient).
- Funnel with attached 50 cm tube. You can make it yourself from a bottle or buy it in a store.
- Transmission fluid. Read below how much oil is in the Kalina gearbox.
- Container for draining old lubricant.
- Special flushing oil if you plan to flush the system.
- Jack.
You will also need a trestle or pit for the convenience of carrying out all the work.
Procedure for changing engine oil on Kalina
First of all, you immediately need to decide on the right tool so that everything is at hand and you don’t have to look for anything, although you need a minimum of keys.
Required Tools
- A 17mm wrench, preferably a socket wrench or a socket head - if you have a plug with outer edges for a regular wrench.
- Hexagon 12, if the plug is in a pan with internal edges.
- A puller for removing the oil filter, if one is needed at all, since in most cases it can be easily unscrewed by hand.
It is best to change the oil in a Kalina engine in a pit, but if this is not possible, then you can drive your front wheels onto two bricks, as I did, and the front of the car will become a little higher, making it easier to crawl under it.
Some nuances of do-it-yourself replacement
Having decided on the frequency of replacement, you need to decide what kind of oil to pour. Whether synthetics or semi-synthetics are used in the engine does not play a special role. The viscosity of the liquid being poured is more important.
For an internal combustion engine to operate most efficiently, the thickness of the oil film must correspond to the size of the gap between the rubbing surfaces.
The resulting film increases the wear resistance of the surfaces of friction pairs. For Lada Kalina, the best option would be 5W viscosity. But if Kalina has a lot of mileage behind her, most likely the gaps have increased, and the viscosity should be higher - 10W.
You also need to pay attention that the liquid being poured should be intended only for gasoline engines. According to the API classification system, the product must correspond to groups SJ or SL
Types of lubricating fluids for the engine: summing up
Additives added to oils also deserve attention. They have not only cleaning properties, but also non-stick and anti-friction properties. This allows you to increase the service life of the internal combustion engine.
Before adding new oil, it is recommended to “flush the system”. This is done after draining the waste by pouring rinsing.
Engine oil for Kalina and its replacement
The technical documentation of AvtoVAZ regarding the Lada Kalina with an engine of 8 and 16 valves provides for a scheduled period for periodic replacement of engine lubricant equal to 15,000 kilometers. The specified period may be shortened due to the individual characteristics of the operation of a particular vehicle. Most owners of this model tend to change the engine oil after 10,000 miles, which helps reduce wear on the internal components of the engine. Don't forget what kind of oil to pour.
The modern market today is fraught with danger in terms of the presence of counterfeit lubricants, and therefore such a safety method will not be superfluous; many car owners are wondering what oil to use.
For Lada Kalina with an engine of 8 and 16 valves, the following types and brands of oils are recommended:
The choice of lubricant is directly influenced by the conditions under which the vehicle is operated.
If the influence of operational factors is due to a certain severity (harsh climate, dust, etc.), then the periodic replacement interval is recommended to be reduced to 8-10 thousand km.
How to properly replace the oil filter?
Preparing to replace the oil filter includes three main points:
- purchase of consumables and components;
- choosing a level place to work;
- warming up the engine.
At the preliminary stage, it is recommended to inspect the entire system for wear and tear and buy replacement parts along with the filter. You should only contact official suppliers. Components must comply with the manufacturer's recommendations and article numbers.
To replace the oil filter, the car owner will need a repair pit, overpass or lift. In the absence of the possibility of using them, the car is evenly raised using a jack and supports.
Warming up the engine is necessary for better circulation and drainage of oil from the system
However, as a result of this, experts pay attention to safety precautions when replacing the oil filter. To avoid thermal and chemical burns, all work should be carried out in special clothing and rubber gloves.
In the context of recommendations for preparation and work, a Lada Kalina car owner will need the following equipment to independently replace the oil filter:
- overalls, gloves, clean lint-free rags or rags;
- a set of screwdrivers and keys, a gate with attachments, a probe;
- container for collecting used lubricating fluid;
- new oil to fill, funnel;
- a new filter element, gaskets, seals and other components to replace worn connections.
On Lada Kalina, the oil filter is replaced according to the standard procedure. Along with it, for preventive purposes, not only the oil is changed, but also faulty or worn parts that may soon fail.
Stage one
The procedure for replacing the oil filter is carried out in several simple steps. However, in the context of simultaneous oil refilling, a general procedure is distinguished in the work, conditionally divided into two stages.
The first one involves the following steps:
- in the lower part of the car, remove the engine protection, if any;
- Place a container under the drain and unscrew the plug;
- as soon as the oil is completely drained, the container is moved under the location of the oil filter;
- for ease of access, disconnect the wiring harness block from the sensor connector and move them to the side;
- unscrew the casing by hand; if necessary, use a special tool;
- When removing the used filter element from the casing, keep an eye on the perforated tube; it should remain for the next consumable.
At this stage, all components and accessible components are checked
Particular attention is paid to gaskets, sealants and other parts responsible for the tightness of connections. If necessary, replace them
Stage two
The second stage is cleaning and installation of components in their original places. The procedure is as follows:
- the internal cavity of the filter element casing is cleaned of waste lubricant residues;
- oil is poured into the mounted filter, soaking it with new lubricant, and the cartridge is inserted into place;
during installation, pay attention to the rubber seals; they must be lubricated with oil and not come out of their grooves; tighten the oil filter and drain plug, check the tightness of the connections; the system is returned to its original state, new oil is poured into the filler neck; The engine is warmed up to operating temperature for 10-15 minutes.
After warming up, measure the lubricant level. When heated, it should not be higher than the permissible maximum on the dipstick; at normal temperatures, the level should not fall below the specified minimum.
During the warm-up process, the emergency light may light up for some time, indicating a lack of oil in the system. This usually happens until the lubricant fills all the mechanisms involved. If the light does not go out, check the lubricant level; topping up may be required.
Replacing the oil filter on Lada Kalina
Replacing the oil filter on Kalina is considered a fairly simple task that does not necessarily require contacting specialists. To solve it independently, the car owner requires certain technical skills in working with the engine.
Frequency of replacing the oil filter in Lada Kalina
The total frequency of replacing the Kalina oil filter (16 valves) is 15 thousand km. However, experts emphasize that this indicator is also influenced by individual operating conditions.
The duration and frequency of trips, the quality and surface of roads, the environment and temperature fluctuations - all this affects the wear of consumables and components. Taking into account these factors, replacing the oil filter on Kalina may be necessary after 10 thousand km.
Many car owners pay attention to signs of the need to change the oil and filter. These include:
- change in the color of the lubricant, the appearance of sediment or a burnt odor;
- interruptions in engine operation, extraneous noise and vibration;
- activation of an alarm about a lack of lubricant, oil starvation.
Experts, however, do not recommend waiting for such signs to appear. The best option is an annual preventative replacement of the oil filter along with the lubricant.
If necessary, the performance and wear of the filter element can be assessed by the quality of the oil. The main purpose of the filter is to clean the circulating lubricant from impurities. If there is sediment in the system, this indicates the urgency of replacing the oil and filter element.
How to properly replace the oil filter?
Preparing to replace the oil filter includes three main points:
- purchase of consumables and components;
- choosing a level place to work;
- warming up the engine.
At the preliminary stage, it is recommended to inspect the entire system for wear and tear and buy replacement parts along with the filter. You should only contact official suppliers. Components must comply with the manufacturer's recommendations and article numbers.
To replace the oil filter, the car owner will need a repair pit, overpass or lift. In the absence of the possibility of using them, the car is evenly raised using a jack and supports.
Warming up the engine is necessary for better circulation and drainage of oil from the system. However, as a result of this, experts pay attention to safety precautions when replacing the oil filter. To avoid thermal and chemical burns, all work should be carried out in special clothing and rubber gloves.
In the context of recommendations for preparation and work, the Lada Kalina car owner will need the following equipment :
- overalls, gloves, clean lint-free rags or rags;
- a set of screwdrivers and keys, a gate with attachments, a probe;
- container for collecting used lubricating fluid;
- new oil to fill, funnel;
- a new filter element, gaskets, seals and other components to replace worn connections.
On Lada Kalina, the oil filter is replaced according to the standard procedure. Along with it, for preventive purposes, not only the oil is changed, but also faulty or worn parts that may soon fail.
Stage one
The procedure for replacing the oil filter is carried out in several simple steps. However, in the context of simultaneous oil refilling, a general procedure is distinguished in the work, conditionally divided into two stages.
The first one involves the following steps:
- in the lower part of the car, remove the engine protection, if any;
- Place a container under the drain and unscrew the plug;
- as soon as the oil is completely drained, the container is moved under the location of the oil filter;
- for ease of access, disconnect the wiring harness block from the sensor connector and move them to the side;
- unscrew the casing by hand; if necessary, use a special tool;
- When removing the used filter element from the casing, keep an eye on the perforated tube; it should remain for the next consumable.
At this stage, all components and accessible components are checked. Particular attention is paid to gaskets, sealants and other parts responsible for the tightness of connections. If necessary, they are replaced.
Stage two
The second stage is cleaning and installation of components in their original places. The procedure is as follows :
- the internal cavity of the filter element casing is cleaned of waste lubricant residues;
- oil is poured into the mounted filter, soaking it with new lubricant, and the cartridge is inserted into place;
- during installation, pay attention to the rubber seals; they must be lubricated with oil and not come out of their grooves;
- tighten the oil filter and drain plug, check the tightness of the connections;
- the system is returned to its original state, new oil is poured into the filler neck;
- The engine is warmed up to operating temperature for 10-15 minutes.
After warming up, measure the lubricant level. When heated, it should not be higher than the permissible maximum on the dipstick; at normal temperatures, the level should not fall below the specified minimum.
During the warm-up process, the emergency light may light up for some time, indicating a lack of oil in the system. This usually happens until the lubricant fills all the mechanisms involved. If the light does not go out, check the lubricant level; topping up may be required.

Recommendations for selection
The choice of oil for Kalina is considered the most important stage of replacement, since the procedure for changing the fluid itself does not cause big problems even for beginners. The work takes 1 – 2 hours.
Therefore, try to choose the mixture that you are going to pour into the engine of your Lada Kalina as correctly as possible.
All oils available on the market are divided into 2 categories:
- all-season;
- seasonal (summer and winter).
Most car owners prefer universal all-season vehicles, but in harsh winter climates this is not always a wise choice.
The best solution would be to use seasonal oils. If more viscous compounds are suitable for summer, then in winter it is recommended to use low-viscosity liquids. Based on what the temperature is in your region.
As the maximum cold start temperature of the power unit increases, oils with the following viscosity classes are used for Kalina:
- 20W40;
- 15W40;
- 10W40;
- 5W40;
- 5W30;
- 0W40;
- 0W30.
Among them, 20W40 is used in the temperature range from -15 to +45 degrees Celsius, and 0W30 is suitable for severe winters when the temperature drops below -35 degrees and does not rise above +25 degrees Celsius.
In terms of manufacturers, the following brands and their motor oils performed well:
- Luxe Hit;
- Teboil Gold;
- Lukoil Lux;
- GT Turbo SM;
- TNK Super;
- Esso Ultra;
- Mobil 1, Synt S and Super S;
- Extras 1, 5 and 7;
- Liqui Moly Optimal;
- ZIC A Plus.
These are motor oils recommended by experts and Kalina car owners that optimally meet the engine requirements.
Oil consumption rates are up to 1 liter for every 1000 kilometers according to the car manufacturer’s tolerances. The amount of oil consumed is influenced by a number of factors, including the quality and viscosity of the motor fluid used.
The level of engine oil consumption will reach maximum levels during aggressive and active driving, as well as at high speeds. Plus, the piston rings, pistons themselves and cylinder walls will additionally wear out.
Try to drive slowly and do not overload the engine unless absolutely necessary. Otherwise, you will have to change consumables much more often than indicated in the instruction manual.
Another pressing issue is how much oil is in the Lada Kalina engine. The amount of lubricant purchased directly depends on this. Taking into account washing, it will require 2–3 times more.
The amount of oil on the Lada Kalina engine with a volume of 1.6 liters and 8 valves is 3 liters. Be guided by the marks on the dipstick, since the actual amount of lubricant to be filled is somewhat different from what is indicated in the motor specifications.
After pouring the required amount of oil into the engine, check the level with a dipstick. The oil film should be exactly between the minimum and maximum o and “Max”).
The Lada Kalina will consume working fluid as it is used, so be sure to periodically check the level and add the missing amount. If the time for replacing the lubricant is approaching, it will need to be drained as completely as possible in order to refill with fresh composition. Some of it will still remain in the system.
How often is the oil changed?
It needs to be changed regularly on every car. This is an unpleasant procedure, very dirty in places, but, fortunately or unfortunately, necessary. The frequency depends on many factors:
- Gasoline quality
- Mileage.
- Driving conditions.
Each car owner decides for himself how often to change it and which one to choose. Some people do this every 15 thousand kilometers of flight, while others do it once a year. By changing it in the spring, you will protect the engine from overheating in the summer. In the fall - prevent you from freezing in winter.
Which product is better to choose depends on the owner of the car. There are many of them on sale. Buying lubricant for a Viburnum fret is easier than choosing tires. A high-quality product will contain additives with detergent, non-stick and other properties. There is no need to think that Lada Kalina needs an expensive product. The most optimal price is average.
The viburnum engine crankcase is replaced at every technical inspection. It is recommended to perform it at least every 15 thousand kilometers. But if you drive on bad roads, with a lot of dust and low temperatures, then this period will be reduced to 5-10 thousand kilometers.
It is important to take these numbers into account, otherwise breakdowns cannot be avoided.
Replacing automotive lubricant in the engine
LUXE HIT 10W-40 is a good option for the viburnum fret. It has become popular and in demand among consumers. It is non-volatile and highly resistant to all oxidative processes. The additives included in its composition protect the engine from carbon deposits. In addition, it is a good lubricant. Even with chemical exposure and bad temperatures, your transport will be completely safe.
Another option for Lada Viburnum is Teboil Gold 5W-40 liquid. She went through many tests, and the result exceeded all expectations. Today it is the best brand, ranking first among car owners. Thanks to it, fuel consumption is reduced, despite high performance. It contains additives that can protect and increase the power of the Lada Kalina car.
And so we decided on the choice of product, purchased it, and the next question arises, how and where is the best way to change it. Many people do this on their own, and quite well. But you should still contact car services, as they employ specialists who understand this topic better than you.
Types of lubricating fluid
When is an oil change required?
The engine oil change schedule for most cars determines the frequency of the procedure at 15 thousand km. Depending on individual operating factors, this value can be reduced to 10 thousand km. These aspects include:
- total mileage of the vehicle, wear and tear of its components;
- the quality of the lubricant poured and the gasoline used;
- high driving speed, aggressive driving style;
- frequency of trips around the city, stops and turns;
- quality of road surface, dustiness;
- daily and seasonal temperature changes.
Taking these factors into account, experts pay attention to the relevance of preventive oil checks. When they are carried out, the level of lubricating fluid in the system is measured and its appearance is assessed.
The measurement is carried out using a probe; it has marks indicating the permissible limits for the heated and normal state of the lubricant. Its excess or deficiency in various ways will lead to malfunction of internal mechanisms and expensive engine repairs.
When assessing the external condition of the filled oil, pay attention to signs of the need for replacement. These include discoloration, the appearance of a burning smell, impurities and sediment in the system
Timely detection of problems allows you to avoid interruptions in engine operation and subsequent expensive repairs. In this context, it is recommended to carry out preventive oil checks at least twice a year. The recommended replacement frequency is once a year or every 10-15 thousand kilometers.
Change of oil
Let's take a closer look at the procedure for replacing the lubricant and oil filter on a Lada Kalina car. First of all, you need to immediately select the right tool. It’s much easier to do the work when everything is at hand and you don’t have to look for anything, although the set of tools you need is minimal:
- wrench 17. It is best to use a socket or socket, especially in the case of a plug that has outer edges for regular wrenches.
- 12mm hexagon if there are internal edges in the pan plug.
- a special puller used to remove the oil filter.
Quite often there is no need for a puller, since the filter can simply be unscrewed by hand.
Changing the oil in the Kalina engine is easiest done in a special pit. If this is not possible, you can place a couple of bricks under the front wheels and drive on them. At the same time, the level of the machine above the ground will increase slightly and it will become easier to get under it. Return to content
Stages of changing the oil in the Lada Kalina engine
Changing the oil in the Lada Kalina engine begins with the preparatory stage. During this process, the entire system is inspected for faulty parts, new consumables and components are purchased, and a place to work is selected.
It is mandatory to change the filter, rubber seals and gasket on the drain plug along with the oil. In addition to them, they replace all worn connections, which may soon become completely unusable.
When choosing a workplace, they are guided by two main indicators - a level platform and ease of access to engine components. If possible, use an overpass, inspection hole or lift. If they are not available, a jack with supports will do.
When working with the engine and lubricant, pay attention to safety precautions. The main emphasis is on the temperature of the grease being drained and its toxicity
To avoid burns, it is recommended to use gloves; use unnecessary containers to collect lubricant.
Taking into account these recommendations, to change the oil in the Lada Kalina engine, you will need the following equipment and necessary tools:
- overalls or things that can get dirty, rubber gloves, lint-free rag;
- a set of keys or gates with socket heads;
- container from 4 liters for collecting used lubricant;
- new lubricant, filling funnel;
- new filter, seals and gaskets, other components.
Step-by-step instructions for changing the oil include the following sequence of actions:
- the engine is warmed up for better circulation of lubricant;
- uncork the filler neck;
- the question of how to properly drain the oil can be solved simply - place a container and unscrew the drain plug;
- While the lubricant is draining, start replacing the oil filter - find its casing and unscrew it;
- when removing the filter element, residual lubricant may spill;
- replace the filter cartridge with a new one, lubricate the rubber seals with oil;
- clean the seat from any remaining lubricant and wipe it dry;
- install the filter element; screw it in only by hand, even if special tools were used to unscrew it;
- when the oil has finished draining, clean the drain hole and plug, change the gasket and clog the drain;
- solving the question of how to fill new oil is also not complicated - use a funnel to pour lubricant into the filler neck;
- After filling, warm up the engine for several minutes, then check the lubricant level.
After a few days, it is also recommended to check the oil volume in the system and all connections for smudges and leaks.
They also pay attention to the condition of the new lubricant, if it quickly changes color - there is a problem with the quality of the product or the condition of the internal mechanisms
Regarding the volume of liquid to be filled, they are guided by the technical documentation and the amount of grease drained. It is recommended to fill immediately up to 70-80% of the required amount and then top up with volume measurements.
Oil change on 8-valve and 16-valve engines
Changing the oil of Kalina 11193 (8-valve 1.6 engine) does not differ significantly from a similar process for 16 valves. The algorithm and sequence of actions are the same for most cars.
Among the features of the replacement, only nuances with the volume and location of the main components stand out. To identify such differences, they turn to technical documentation, although most car owners find a filler neck, drain plug and filter without it.
The choice of oil also does not differ significantly. The same brand is poured, the viscosity is guided by operating conditions. In terms of volume, 16-valve engines usually require a larger quantity; purchase up to 4 liters of new lubricant.
How to change the oil in a Lada Kalina engine
It would seem like a common thing - changing the engine oil. And many car enthusiasts have encountered this need several times in their lives. Ah, no! And there is some wisdom here. Yes, such that it is strongly not recommended to carry out this operation without first studying the instructional materials. Especially when it comes to the creations of the domestic automobile industry. For example, about Lada Kalina.
When do you need to change the engine oil, and what are the features of preparing the necessary equipment?
Before describing the corresponding process, it should be noted that changing the oil https://mashinapro.ru/112-zamena-masla-v-dvigatele-kalina.html in the Kalina engine should be carried out at least once every 15,000 kilometers . Possibly more often. Moreover, unfortunately, too many fakes are now sold on the domestic market of fuels and lubricants.
In addition, immediately before the start of all procedures, it is worth deciding on the tools that should be used in the process. Otherwise, unproductive waste of time and a sea of https://otpuskpro.ru/akvarium-v-dubae/ negative emotions associated with the search for everything you need are guaranteed.
Step-by-step instructions for changing the oil in Lada Kalina
The process of changing the oil in the Lada Kalina engine can be represented as follows:
- It is necessary to warm up the engine to a temperature of approximately 70-80 degrees. This is quite enough.
- Next, you should place a container for draining the waste under the engine sump, for which you can, for example, use a five-liter plastic bottle or something else like that.
- Then the plug of this pan is unscrewed.
- The prepared container is installed in such a way that the old oil does not leak, but gets only where it is needed.
- After draining the used fluid down to the very last drop, unscrew the oil filter.
- Next, the pan plug is screwed back.
- A new oil filter is taken and new oil is filled to approximately half its level.
- The rubber band of this same filter is slightly lubricated.
- The filter is mounted in its place.
- Finally, the oil in the engine itself is directly changed.
In the presented process, the volumes of fuels and lubricants used are determined exclusively using a probe. In this case, the resulting values should vary between the “Min” and “Max” indicators.
If everything was eventually done without any significant deviations from the above recommendations, then it becomes possible to start the engine and wait until the light indicating the pressure level goes out. After this, you can safely hit the road.

Oil filters
All filter components present on the market today can be classified into two categories.
- Rough cleaning. Such an oil filter is included in the lubrication system in series, so the entire volume of lubricating fluid passes through it.
- Fine cleaning. These components are included in the line parallel to other oil channels. The oil filter is used to pump part of the lubricant (within 10-20%). This volume is mixed with the rest of the liquid in the oil receiver.
The disadvantage of this scheme is that the filtered oil is redirected directly into the crankcase, and not to the operating parts of the engine.
The oil filter for Lada Kalina with an engine of 8 and 16 valves, designed for rough cleaning, can be plate-slotted. Components for fine cleaning are available in cardboard, felt or paper versions.
Filters for coarse cleaning interact with a system of bypass valves, which, if the working component itself is significantly clogged or in extreme operating modes of the engine, direct oil directly into the crankcase, past the cleaning circuit. Here, the stiffness of the spring component is adjusted depending on the magnitude of the pressure variation within the range of 0.8 - 1.2 MN/m2.
Fine filter elements are capable of filtering oil, trapping particles with a minimum size of 0.001 mm. Therefore, it is important what kind of oil to pour.
