UAZ Patriot is a domestic off-road passenger car with an all-wheel drive chassis. The SUV uses a five-door all-metal body, which is also found on many other models produced by the Ulyanovsk Automobile Plant. The use of such a design is primarily due to a rather high margin of safety, which makes this SUV suitable for use on various categories of roads, as well as off-road and rural areas. The first samples of the Patriot left the assembly line in 2005 and to this day the model remains in production.

This car is technically very similar to its predecessor, namely the UAZ-3162 "Simbir", since the new model inherited many elements from it. The bridges remained unchanged, the same Spicer bridges are used here, and there are also interior options available, which appear to be five-seater or nine-seater, depending on the configuration. In addition, the line of installed engines remained, but only the latest models of the engines were brought to the environmental level of Euro-3. The main difference between the Patriot and its predecessor is the significantly increased level of comfort. This is due to the fact that the manufacturer uses foreign components and elements, of which there is a very large number in the final design. The hydraulic power steering was installed from the Italian manufacturer Delphi Italia Automotive s.r.l., the braking system was used here from the German company ContiTeves, the steering wheel was also provided by the German company Takata-Petri AG, the mechanical transmission system was installed from the Korean manufacturer Dymos. In the cabin, foreign-made elements were also used, for example, all the seats were made by DAWNSCO, and such microclimate systems as ventilation, heating and air conditioning were provided by the British company Sanden International Europe Ltd.

A year after the start of serial production, safety improvements were introduced. An anti-lock braking system from Bosch was installed. In 2008, improvements were made to heating, air conditioning and ventilation systems, which had a positive effect on comfort. The engine cooling system was also improved.

In 2012, the manufacturer again slightly updated the UAZ Patriot. This time, the dashboard was completely updated, and a more traumatic four-spoke steering wheel manufactured by Takata-Petri AG was installed. Instead of a standard radio, the manufacturer installed an improved 2DIN dimension in the new model. The used radio tape recorder has one USB-connector, which allows you to connect various USB-carriers. It should be noted that previously there was no such opportunity in the UAZ Patriot.

In 2013, the technical part of the car was improved. Now the SUV is equipped with a new Korean-made Dymos transfer case. The new transfer case is electrically controlled, due to the presence of a special washer in the cabin, which allows you to select one or another gear instead of the standard shift lever. The length of the rear propeller shaft was slightly taken away and the intermediate support was removed from the structure. A control unit was placed on the driver's door, through which the driver can control all the windows in the cabin and adjust the rear-view mirrors. An ordinary parking brake also appeared, that is, now the rear axle wheels are blocked instead of the propeller shaft. The headlining in the cabin has been redesigned, and the center rearview mirrors and handles for passengers have also been changed. A version with the "Winter package" appeared among the complete sets. This configuration implies the presence of a heated windshield, an individual heating system for back row passengers and a heating system for the rear row seats.

In October 2014, UAZ Patriot acquired new lighting equipment. In addition, the model has new bumpers and modified seats. The manufacturer supplemented the chassis with the installation of an anti-roll bar and new propeller shafts. New cardan shafts differ from the previously used ones with an extended service life and low demand for regular maintenance. This year's model can be fitted with a new multimedia system as an option. This equipment includes a rear view camera and a navigation system. The modified UAZ Patriot entered the market in the same year, in November.

In 2016, the last to date work was carried out to improve the car. First of all, the manufacturer touched on the exterior of the SUV, giving it a new radiator grill, in which the emblem was enlarged. Inside, there is a new front panel, a modified gear shift lever, and a new steering column with adjustment, seat belts and pretensioners to them, well, one large fuel tank instead of two separate ones.

How much oil to pour into the UAZ Patriot

The UAZ axles need 2.7 liters of oil - 1.4 and 1.3 liters for the front and rear axles. The volume of oil in the dispenser is 0.7 liters.

Information on the types of oil required

Of synthetic gear oils:

ZIC G-F TOP. This oil is one of the most popular today. The oil is ideal for many parts of the car, including handouts, when operating in regions with low temperature conditions, as it is resistant to fairly low temperatures. A separate feature of this lubricating fluid is that there are practically no fakes on the market now, at least you can buy fake oil with an extremely low probability. This is due to the fact that the original is sold in a canister, which is made using a special technology, which is what makes the difference. According to numerous reviews, this oil helps to reduce the noise in the operation of the transmission system.

The car deserves attention also due to its excellent maintainability, unpretentiousness and ease of maintenance, which allows consumers to carry out simple technical tasks at home.

How to change the oil in the axle and razdatka UAZ Patriot.

The transmission units of an SUV, to some extent, even more than similar units of other machines, require regular and timely maintenance, since the machine is often operated in difficult and extreme conditions. In this article, we will consider how often oil is required to be poured into the bridges of the UAZ Patriot, how to replace the transmission lubricant on our own, which fluid is most effective for the axles and transfer case of an SUV.

When is replacement needed?

The frequency of oil change in each of the transmission units is regulated by the manufacturer in the user manual. For cars that have just come off the assembly line, the first change of transmission fluids should be performed no later than five thousand kilometers traveled. Such a short interval is explained by the fact that new structural parts after assembly during the running-in procedure rub against each other, during which there is a possibility of the formation of small metal particles, the presence of which can negatively affect the operational life of the units and the machine.

Further changes of the emulsion in the distributor and bridges are regulated by the manufacturer at intervals after every thirty thousand vehicle runs. It should be understood that the interval between procedures can vary depending on how high-quality product is poured into the transmission, as well as on the operating conditions of the vehicle.

Which oil to choose?

It's no secret that the declared characteristics of the car in terms of cross-country ability, controllability and reliability are guaranteed only if the car owner follows the manufacturer's recommendations for the operation and maintenance of the vehicle. Filling a poor-quality emulsion is the first and main factor that can affect the operating period of machine parts.

Accordingly, it is necessary to decide what oil to pour into the bridges, gearbox and transfer case of the Patriot, guided by the manufacturer's recommendations stated in the instructions:

1. To fill the transfer case into the crankcase, it is necessary to purchase a transmission product with SAE 75W90, corresponding to API class GL-3.
2. To perform the task in the front and rear axles of the UAZ Patriot, it is recommended to use fluids that meet the API GL-5 operating requirements, SAE viscosity grade 75W
3. The gearbox is filled with grease that meets the standardization according to SAE 75W85, according to API - GL-4.

In practice, from an economic point of view, it is impractical to buy three different types of transmission fluid, especially since the products are sold in containers with a volume of one liter or more - there will be significant leftovers that can deteriorate in anticipation of the next service. Car owners advise using identical fluids with a viscosity of 75W90 and API GL-4 class for all transmission units, which have proven themselves as well as possible during operation in Patriot units.

As for the lubricant brand, it is also worth paying attention to the manufacturer's tolerances, which recommends pouring in Hanval Incorporated with the specified viscosity and specification. However, the buyer can choose a product from any well-known manufacturer, while taking into account the requirements for the technological properties of the product.

Refueling volumes

Having decided on the type of product required, the consumer, in order to buy it in sufficient volume, needs to know how much oil in the UAZ Patriot is required for a complete replacement. According to the instructions for the car, the following amount of fluid will be required in the transmission units:

1. In the axles of the vehicle, a total of 2.7 liters of lubricant will be required - 1.4 and 1.3 liters for the front and rear axles, respectively.
2. The volume of oil in the distributor, according to the manual, is 0.7 liters.
3. The volume of emulsion in the gearbox is 2.5 liters.

Accordingly, if you buy an individual fluid for each of the units, then you will need to buy a liter of grease for the transfer case, and three liters of grease for the gearbox and axles. When deciding to fill an identical fluid for all transmission units of the UAZ Patriot, you will need to purchase six liters of oil.

Procedure

The procedure in the transmission units of the Patriot is not particularly complicated, however, it requires patience and attentiveness from the performer. To complete the work in full, it will be necessary to alternately drain the spent fluid in each of the system nodes, replacing it with new grease. For this purpose, it is first necessary to prepare new oil in a volume sufficient for replacement, a set of car keys, a container for waste fluid, as well as work clothes.

The task of changing the fluid in the transmission units is performed from the side of the machine bottom. In service centers, special elevators are used to ensure unhindered access to the drain openings; at home, it will be enough to drive the vehicle onto a pit or overpass.

Before performing the operation, it is important to drive an SUV for about ten kilometers so that the lubricant in the system is warmed up to operating temperature. Under the influence of temperatures, it will become liquid, it will merge with the units faster and better. Further activities are carried out in accordance with the work procedure for each of the transmission units.

Axle oil change

The oil change procedures in the UAZ Patriot bridges do not differ in the technology of execution, therefore, we will consider the procedure for implementing tasks using the example of the rear axle. In practice, you can successfully complete the replacement by following simple instructions from the car manufacturer:

The oil change in the front axle of the UAZ Patriot is carried out in the same way, with the only difference - the oil filling and drain plugs must be found on the front axle crankcase. The front axle housing will hold no more than 1.4 liters of grease. On this, the procedure for replacing the lubricant in the bridges of the UAZ Patriot can be considered successfully completed. Then you can proceed to changing the oil in the transfer case and gearbox.

Changing the lubricant in the transfer case

The methodology for changing the oil in the UAZ Patriot distributor is practically no different from the procedure for replacing the transmission fluid in the axles. To complete the procedure, you will need to find the drain and filler holes, clean the surfaces one by one from dirt accumulations and unscrew the filler plug. Further, mining is removed into the prepared container through the drain opening. At the end of the draining of the liquid, it is necessary to tighten the drain plug, pour oil through the filling opening using a technical syringe to the limit, which will amount to a little more than two and a half liters in volume.

Together with changing the oil in the axles and transfer case, it is recommended to change the lubricant in the gearbox, the technology of which is the same as in previous situations. When pouring new oil into the gearbox, the level should be monitored using a special dipstick with which the car is equipped. In the gearbox, after filling and running in the machine, it will be necessary to recheck the level, it may be necessary to top up the oil to the norm.

After replacing the lubricant in all transmission units, it is necessary to start the car and drive it for several kilometers, then drive it to the overpass again and check all the joints for fluid leaks, if necessary, tighten the plugs more tightly.

Let's summarize

The transmission units of the UAZ Patriot are designed to work in aggressive operating conditions, therefore they are characterized by increased endurance. Despite this, their operational period directly depends on the owner's compliance with the regulations for their maintenance. Irregular oil changes or completely ignoring them can cause damage to the car, reduce its handling, passability and safety on the road.

It is not difficult to carry out routine maintenance of bridges, transfer case and gearbox at home, while it is advisable to replace the transmission oil in all nodes, which, on the one hand, will not get confused in the timing of repeated replacement, on the other hand, will prolong the life of the car. And, most importantly, do not save on the quality of the lubricant, the operating period of units, assemblies and the vehicle as a whole depends on this.

Good day everyone. The topic of today's article is oil in the rear axle of the UAZ. I think you have already guessed from the title what the article is about, so there will be no short review usual for our site.

We will agree on the shore that there is no point in making gradation according to cars, i.e. the bridge of a loaf, a hunter and a patriot is no different - a SPICEER is being installed from the factory today. And bridges "collective farms" and "warriors" are much less demanding on oil than the current bridges. Accordingly, there is no difference which UAZ and which bridge. Recommendations for the choice of oil are valid for all UAZ vehicles of all years of production.

Selection by type of oil.

The classics of the genre are synthetics, semisynthetics and mineral water. It would seem - pour what is more expensive and change according to the instructions and there will be happiness ... but not everything is so simple ...

The choice of oil in the rear axle, in the case of the UAZ, is not obvious. The fact is that oil of the same viscosity characteristic is very different in price depending on the type. Mineral water Lukoil GL5 85W90 costs about 300 rubles per liter, mannol synthetics of similar viscosity costs 800r for the same "liter".

And now why is it difficult to choose - if you often go to the forest (and how else with an UAZ), and constantly storm puddles and swamps into bridges, through breathers, water will inevitably get into. Water in oil is his guaranteed death ... and operating the bridge on a cocktail of oil and water will not add to his health. Therefore, if you operate the UAZ only in the summer, it is cheaper to pour mineral water on trophy raids and change it at the first suspicion of water ingress!

In winter, unambiguously, synthetics rule, due to greater temperature stability. A car on synthetics does not need to be "rolled out"; it can drive almost immediately, as the engine warms up, and due to the viscosity of the oil in the transmission, it is great to save fuel! In reality, my gasoline consumption decreased from 18 to 17 liters after I changed the oil in the axles and the box for synthetics!

About semisynthetics….

This oil is not worth considering. The fact is that this is an ordinary mineral water with added additives, in fact it is the same mineral water, but more expensive…. If you want to pay for the labor of marketers - semisynthetics is your choice, but it makes no sense for a car - it thickens like mineral water in winter, and there is no difference in summer….

Agreed - in the summer, if we constantly knead the mud, mineral water and change more often, in the winter synthetic. If we ride around the city all year round and use the UAZ as a zhopovozka, it is better to completely switch to synthetics. It makes no sense to consider semisynthetics.

Selection by viscosity.

It is often recommended to pour NIGROL into military bridges and collective farms. Nigrol is the residue (waste) from the direct distillation of oil mixed with asphalt tar!

So colleagues UAZovody. There is no such oil in nature for 60 years, but what is now sold under the trademark nigrol is TEP-15, it cannot be called nigrol….

The design of the UAZ differential is not well thought out, and the gears have a large slip coefficient, so it is unacceptable to pour low-quality oil! On Nigrol, the bridge will screech very quickly, on TAD - how lucky!

The plant recommends filling the bridge with oil with a viscosity of SAE, 85w-90... The manufacturer is not important! Change the oil on time and do not get on the burned (left) oil. I personally use oil 75w-90 here is this (yes it happens gl4, gl5 and gl4 / 5, I pour the last 2 depending on what is available):

If the bridge howls (yes, on the UAZ, it happens that the bridge makes a louder noise than the boxes and handouts combined), it is permissible to increase the viscosity of the oil in the axle to 85w-140, It was with this oil that the author of this article exploited Hunter for 2 years, i.e. the bridge howled, thick oil was poured, and with this oil the UAZ was sold!

How much oil is included in the rear axle of UAZ

In the spicer - 1.33 liters.

The collective farm - 1.2 liters.

In the military - 1.0 liter.

In any case, the same oil is poured into the front and rear axles, so when changing the oil in the axles, I always took 3 liters each.

That's all for me today. All reliable UAZ vehicles and honest officials.

Periodic oil change on the UAZ Patriot SUV needs not only the engine, gearbox and transfer case, but also such important units as axles. UAZ Patriot refers to all-wheel drive vehicles, but the rear axle is a permanently functioning axle of the two. The front one is included in the work if it is necessary to overcome dangerous off-road sections. We will not pay attention to the question of what is the structure of off-road vehicle bridges, but we will consider questions of the following nature: which oil is better to choose for pouring into bridges, when it is necessary to carry out such a replacement and how this process is carried out.

UAZ Patriot is not just a car, but an SUV, in which each mechanism represents many details. The bridges or gearbox on an off-road vehicle are some kind of oil containers in which the functioning of the working elements, that is, the gears, is carried out. Often, these devices have two gears, which, due to friction with each other, transfer torque from the transfer case to the wheels.

During the operation of the gears, they are produced, as a result of which chips or small metal particles are formed in the containers, that is, inside the bridge. These particles must be removed from these devices so that they do not cause jamming of rotating parts, which will entail unpleasant consequences.

Thus, we found out that the lubricating fluid inside the bridge also performs a cleaning function. But this is not the only function of the lubricating fluid in this device. Considerable attention is paid to the process of removing heat from parts heated as a result of friction. If, during friction, the metal reaches a critical temperature value, then it can either lose its original properties or crumble. Therefore, the removal of heat from heating parts in bridges is an important function of the lubricating fluid on the UAZ Patriot SUV.

But even this does not end the functions of the lubricating fluid. Of great importance is the direct lubrication of rubbing parts - bearings, gears, shafts that make up the gearbox. Thus, the oil smooths the friction process of steel parts, as a result of which the service life of such elements increases tenfold. If oil was absent in the design of the bridges of the UAZ Patriot SUV, then during the movement of this steel horse, every creak of a part would be heard. At the same time, a car without the presence of lubricants in the main units would not be able to cover even several kilometers. Therefore, in this article we will consider what kind of oil needs to be poured into the gearboxes of the UAZ Patriot SUV and how to do it correctly.

Lubricant selection

The designers of the Ulyanovsk Automobile Plant recommend pouring an all-season type of oil with a viscosity grade of SAE 75W / 90 according to API GL-5 into the bridges of the UAZ Patriot SUV. But what the manufacturer recommends does not mean that you need to use only these types. It is necessary to take this into account, and you can fill in anything, the main thing is that after that the car drives. This is all, of course, a lyrical digression, but it is necessary to find out which oil is better to pour into the Patriot gearbox, and which will be the best and optimal for any buyer.

So, there are three types of lubricants: synthetics, semi-synthetics and mineral water. For more information on these fluids, see our gearbox oil selection guide. It should only be noted that the first option is the most expensive, but the most effective. It is not recommended to use it only in devices with high output. After all, the viscosity of the liquid is such that a slight violation of the seal leads to a leak. As a result, you will need to constantly monitor the level in the system and add.

Mineral water is the cheapest option and it is often used in cars with high mileage, since the viscosity of this material is low and even significant damage to seals or oil seals will not lead to significant oil loss from the system.

The optimal of all the options is the third type of product - semi-synthetics. Semi-synthetics are affordable for all motorists and are an excellent solution for lubricating an assembly such as axles. There are a lot of lubricant manufacturers, so choosing the best product is an important feature. So, these units can be filled with oils from the following manufacturers:

• Castrol Syntrax Long Life 75W90;
• GT Hypoid Synt 75W90;
• Zic G-F Top 75W-85.

The best option is to fill the axles of the SUV with synthetic oil. But it should be borne in mind that the serviceability of all seals must be at a high level. Otherwise, the poured expensive oil will spill onto the asphalt and then jam the gears. Controlling the lubricant in the axles is quite problematic, since there is no special level on the units to check the volume of fluid. If leaks are not noticed in time, then you can pay with serious waste on bridge repairs.

When is the replacement carried out?

Having found out which oil is better to pour into the bridges of an SUV, you should figure out when it is necessary to start the replacement process. The manufacturer recommends replacing the lubricant in the axles every 40 thousand kilometers. Changing the oil in the UAZ Patriot bridges is not particularly difficult, therefore, after such runs, you can pay attention to good types of oils. But here the question arises, what volume does the front and rear gearbox have and how much fluid is needed to refuel them? The volume of the rear axle of the UAZ Patriot SUV is 1.3 liters. The volume of the front axle is slightly larger and is 1.4 liters.

On a new car, it is recommended to change the oil after 10-15 thousand kilometers, because you never know how the manufacturer could fill the volume of the bridges. Therefore, the first time we fill the gearbox with oil after 15-20 thousand km of run, and the next after 40,000 km.

Replacement in the front axle

In conclusion, it remains to find out what the process of changing the lubricant on the rear and front axles is. So let's start with the front one:

1. We install the car on the inspection pit and carry out the process of draining the mining. Only this must be done when the system is preheated. To do this, drive a car for 15-20 minutes, and then start changing the lubricant, both on the front and rear axles.
2. To unscrew the drain plug, you need a “12” hex wrench. With its help, the cork is unscrewed and the mining is drained into a previously prepared container. The photo below shows the location of the front axle drain plug.
3. In order for the working off to drain faster, it is also necessary to unscrew the filler plug, which is located slightly higher, above the drain.
4. After draining the waste, screw the drain plug, having previously cleaned it from dirt and dust.
5. New oil is poured using a technical or medical syringe. After that, screw the plug and complete the replacement.

As you can see, the process is not particularly difficult, and every car owner can perform such procedures.

Replacing the lubricant on the rear gearbox is carried out in the same way, so it makes no sense to consider this process.

In the article, we considered all the questions about changing the oil in the axles of the UAZ Patriot SUV. We can summarize by noting the importance of periodic oil changes in SUV gearboxes. Otherwise, each car owner represents himself how it can end. Therefore, it is not always correct to choose an expensive oil that can remain on the asphalt.

You can check your MSC and reduce it if needed!

The transfer case on the UAZ Patriot SUV is a unit that is responsible for the distribution of torque from the car's engine to its drive mechanisms. Like most parts and assemblies in the UAZ Patriot car, the junction box needs diagnostic and preventive measures. The main preventive measure for the premature elimination of breakdowns and prevention of increased wear of the working units of the Republic of Kazakhstan is an oil change. What is an oil change, how is it carried out, what are the features, and which product is better to choose? We will consider all questions in this material.

Let's briefly consider which oil is better for pouring into the Republic of Kazakhstan. So, the manufacturer recommends pouring gear oil with a viscosity grade of 75W-85 into the distributor. In this case, you can use both synthetics and semi-synthetics. It is not recommended to pour mineral liquids into the distributor, box, axles and engine. Why? You can learn more about this from the material. The manufacturer recommends the following types of transmission fluids for the transfer case of an SUV:

• ZIC G-HF 75W-85;
• SKG-F TOP 75W-85 $
• HI SAE 75W85 API GL-3.

But as practice shows, few people attach importance to such recommendations and each motorist individually chooses for his car, in his opinion, the best option or the optimal one with a lack of funds. But it is better to pour only high-quality oil into the distributor, as well as into the engine and axles, otherwise it will negatively affect the functioning of the unit and its service life, with the subsequent destruction of parts. Below is a plate that may be useful for owners of UAZ Patriot SUVs.

Often, drivers fill the same oil as in the gearbox and axles. More details about this can be found in this material. Next, we will consider how the UAZ Patriot SUV is replaced in the Republic of Kazakhstan.

The need to meet deadlines

Before proceeding to consider the issue of how the lubricant is replaced in the Republic of Kazakhstan on the UAZ Patriot SUV, we will consider when such actions are necessary. So, based on the recommendations of the manufacturer of the famous Russian SUV, it should be noted that the first lubricant change is recommended after 2500-5000 km of run. This is provided that the car is bought directly from the assembly line. But few people pay attention to such recommendations and often only the engine oil changes. In the best case, the replacement in the distribution box falls on a mileage of 20-30 thousand km. Why does the manufacturer recommend changing the lubricant after such a short time? Because the car is new and its parts have not yet become accustomed to each other, therefore the first thousand km of run are test ones.

If you do not resort to replacing the lubricant after a specified period, in the oil, from the initial grinding of new parts, a lot of tiny metal particles are formed, and they soon begin to intensively erase the working surfaces of the parts. This subsequently leads to a decrease in the operating life of the mechanism as a whole. Therefore, the plant recommends, and the owners independently decide on such events.

Disassembled box

How much lubricant is needed for an SUV dispenser? According to the recommendations of the engineers of the Ulyanovsk Automobile Plant, 0.7 liters of oil must be poured into the transfer case of the UAZ Patriot car. Each subsequent replacement of the lubricant should be carried out in a distribution box every 25-70 thousand kilometers, which depends on the type of material used and on the operating conditions of the car. In particular, mineral water should be changed every 25 thousand km, and synthetics 65-70 km. We will consider further how the direct replacement of material is carried out.

Replacement process
