1. Unscrew the filler plug of the rear axle.
2. Place a container with a volume of at least 1.5 liters under the drain hole of the rear axle.
3. Using a 12 mm hexagon wrench, unscrew the drain plug of the rear axle.
4. Drain the oil from the rear axle of the VAZ 2107 car. The drain plug is equipped with a magnet that attracts wear debris from gearbox parts.
5. We clean the drain plug and install it back into the rear axle of the VAZ 2107 car.

Note
If the drained oil from the rear axle on a VAZ 2107 car is dark and metal particles are clearly visible in it, it is recommended to flush the rear axle gearbox on a VAZ 2107 car.

To flush the rear axle gearbox on a VAZ 2107 car, pour about a liter of low viscosity oil (for example, a spindle). Having hung out one of the rear wheels (see "Wheel of a VAZ 2107 car - replacement"), we start the engine on a VAZ 2107 car and turn on the first gear. After five minutes, turn off the engine, drain the oil from the rear axle, clean it again and wrap the drain plug.
6. Fill the rear axle up to the level of the filler hole with fresh transmission oil and wrap the plug.
7. Clean the outside of the breather with a brush or rag. We turn the breather cap several times to clean its channel.

Many owners of VAZ 2107 cars are interested in the question, how much oil to fill in the main units of the car, such as the engine, gearbox or rear axle? In fact, this information is in every car operating manual that is issued when buying at a car dealership. But if you are the owner of a used vehicle or for some other reason do not know what the main filling capacities of important units are, then this information will be given in more detail below.

The required oil level in the crankcase of the VAZ 2107 engine

Absolutely all engines that were installed on the "classic" until the last moment have the same refueling capacities. So, for example, the engine oil should be 3.75 liters. It is not always possible to mark this level on your own, since not every canister has a transparent scale. Therefore, you also need to navigate by the probe. Each dipstick has special marks MIN and MAX that indicate the minimum and maximum allowable oil level in the internal combustion engine. It is necessary to fill in until the level is between these two marks, approximately in the middle.

Roughly speaking, when changing the oil in the VAZ 2107 engine, you will need a canister with a volume of 4 liters, since it will go away almost completely. In many service stations, auto mechanics, when refueling, fill the entire canister entirely, since 250 grams do not play a special role, provided that they are above the recommended value.

How much to fill in transmission oil in the gearbox "classics"

I think that every car owner knows perfectly well that today there are VAZ 2107 models with both 4 and 5-speed gearboxes. Of course, the level of these two boxes is a little bit different.

Of course, it is necessary to pour a little more into a 5-mortar for obvious reasons.

• 5-speed gearbox - 1.6 liters
• 4-speed gearbox - 1.35 liters

Capacity for filling oil into the gearbox of the rear axle VAZ 2107

Believe it or not, there are some owners who don't even know that the rear axle of a car also needs regular lubrication, although not as often as the engine. Also, there are some drivers who believe that if the oil does not drive out and does not ooze, then it is not necessary to change it at all. This is all wrong and this procedure is also mandatory, as in the internal combustion engine and in the checkpoint.

The amount of grease should be 1.3 liters. To fill the required level, you need to wait until the oil flows out of the filler hole, this will be considered the optimal volume.

Spend change of transmission oil at gearbox (Checkpoint) and rear axle reducer recommended every 35,000 km or after three years of vehicle operation. Also, you can advise to check the level and condition transmission oil immediately after buying a used car. The oil should be changed if: oil in the crankcase Checkpointand reducer below the recommended level, there is silvery dust in the oil (it is dust, if you find metal grains in the oil, then it is probably too late to change the oil and it is necessary to prepare for a serious repair), the color of the oil is black or coffee (which may indicate the destruction of additives in oil or water getting into the oil). And, of course, an oil change in Checkpointand in rear axle reduceryou can do it yourself! How to do this and what you need for this, read on ...

Change of gear oil in the gearbox and gearbox it is best to spend at the same time and immediately after the trip (at least 5 km for the oil to warm up). Plus, you can immediately buy 3 liters of 80w90 oil - 1.3 liters in the gearbox and 1.4 (1.6 in the five-speed) liters in the gearbox and there will still be left for locks lubrication, etc.

Further ... It is better to change the oil on the inspection pit or overpass. And the main thing that I want to say right away The oil filling phase can cause the problem. rear axle reducer and especially in gearbox ... For this, an oil blower (photo 1) or a lever grease gun is best suited. But, since these devices may not be at hand, you can replace them with a large plastic syringe plus an elastic tube tightly fitted at its end. Still, for oil filling in gearboxyou can use a design - a long rubber hose (one end of the hose is in the gearbox, the other is brought up into the engine compartment) and a watering can (inserted into the end of the hose that is brought out into the engine compartment). The only disadvantage of this method is that it is necessary to warm up the oil or replace it in the summer.

If the oil in reducer or Checkpointheavily contaminated, then the crankcase should be flushed Checkpoint or reducer... For this you need to mix transmission (motor can be used) butter with diesel fuel (proportion, about 30% of diesel fuel). Pour into Gearbox (reducer), jack one rear wheel, start the engine, engage first gear and let it run for 3-4 minutes. After that, you can drain the flushing mixture and fill in fresh transmission oil.

According to technical regulations, the oil in the rear axle gearbox of the VAZ 2107 must be replaced every two years. As a rule, a special gear oil is used for replacement. It is recommended to carry out periodic oil changes in summer and winter, just before the active operation of your car.

Stages of changing the oil in the rear axle VAZ 2107

The oil in the gearbox of the rear axle of the VAZ 2107 car must be changed on a hot engine (after a 5-kilometer run) so that it warms up faster and the glass from the crankcase. Then follow these steps:

1. Unscrew the drain plug and completely drain the old gear oil from the gear housing. If the used oil has a characteristic black color or contains silvery grains, this indicates contamination of the gearbox with metal filings, i.e. about its malfunction. To fix this problem, it is necessary to remove the gearbox and take it to a service center.

2. Thoroughly rinse the gearbox from oil deposits. For maximum efficiency, flushing is carried out with a high viscosity oil.

3. Open the filler plug and use a conventional syringe to pump new oil into the rear axle gearbox. The oil level is considered normal, which corresponds to the upper edge of the filler neck. After filling with oil, screw the plug tightly.

At the end of the oil change process, check if the breather is dirty. If necessary, it must be cleaned with a special brass brush.

Domestic car VAZ 2107 refers to rear-wheel drive vehicles. The rear wheels are driven by the rear axle and cardan drive. An important role in this is played by the rear axle, which is a gearbox for converting torque from one value to another. This is the mechanism in which the gears rotate. Oil is used to reduce the friction of these gears. What kind of oil is recommended to be poured into the gearbox of the rear axle of the VAZ 2107, and will be discussed in this material.

The rear axle gearbox is a mechanism that is subjected to a number of different stresses. Through these loads, destructive actions occur. To avoid accelerated wear of the gearbox parts, a special lubricant is required. This grease is an oil that, during the operation of the gears of the mechanism, envelops them, eliminating accelerated wear, overheating, and also cleans the teeth from chips and metal dust.

It is necessary to change the oil in the rear axle gearbox for the simple reason that over time it loses its primary properties. When the gears rub against each other, heat energy is released, the value of which is reduced with the help of a lubricating fluid. In addition, the friction of the gears causes wear on the teeth, during which chips and metal dust are formed. If you do not change the lubricant in the gearbox for a long time, the amount of metal chips and dust will only increase, which will lead to accelerated wear of the rubbing parts.

When to change gear lubricant

The oil change in the rear axle of a VAZ 2107 car should be performed regularly, but there is no specific threshold. It all depends on many different factors, but the manufacturer of a domestic car recommends performing this procedure every 60 thousand km.

Some of the main factors that affect the timing of an oil change are:

1. Driving nature. Frequent and abrupt starts are not at all beneficial to the parts and mechanisms of the car, including the rear axle.
2. Car operating conditions. If the car is operated in a rural area, where there are roads with poor coverage, dust, dirt, then it should be replaced more often.
3. The quality of the lubricant. It is recommended to fill in a special high-quality oil into the rear axle of the VAZ 2107. If you pour low quality grease into the gearbox, then you will need to replace them much more often.
4. Vehicle operation with a trailer. The wear of the device parts is accelerated if the vehicle is operated with a trailer carrying the cargo.

Features of the choice of grease

It is recommended to fill in semi-synthetic gear oil into the gearbox of the rear axle of a VAZ 2107 car. It should have a viscosity rating of 75W-90. This is a universal lubricant option that is usually poured into the gearbox.

A special gear oil in the gearbox improves the quality of the parts and also reduces their wear. How much oil needs to be poured into the gearbox, not every owner of the "seven" knows. The lubricant volume for the gear unit is 1.35 liters. It is poured through a special filler hole (on the side), using a technical syringe. First, the old lubricating fluid should be drained, for which there is a special drain plug from the bottom.

Oil change step by step

The procedure for changing the oil in the gearbox with warming up the old slurry, for this you need to drive a car for 10-15 minutes. After that, you need to drive into the inspection pit, take the necessary tools and materials, and go downstairs. The replacement procedure involves the following manipulations:

1. Washing the mechanism. This step is optional as there are different opinions on the need to flush the mechanism. If there are chips in the drained fluid, it is recommended to fill the bridge with flushing fluid. To do this, you can use special fluids or use spindle oil. After flushing or draining the liquid, the drain plug must be screwed back in place.
2. Oil filling involves unscrewing the filler plug. This plug is located in the middle of the bridge, at the back. In order to pour oil into the bridge through this plug, use a special syringe. It can be purchased at the store. Fill the material until it starts flowing out of the filler hole. This is about 1.3-1.5 liters.
3. After that, it remains only to screw the filler plug into place.

A breather is located at the top of the bridge. After filling the oil, check its movement characteristics. It should move easily and without jamming. If the breather does not function, then when the grease heats up in the gearbox, it will begin to flow out through
