In case of damage to the galvanized body, corrosion destroys zinc and not steel.
Types of treatment
Over the years, the process of processing itself has changed. Machine Motor - it will always be galvanized better! Types of galcriptions
The presence of zinc particles in the soil covering the body - does not affect its protection and is used by the manufacturer for the word "galvanized" in promotional materials. . Test The results of tests of cars from conveyor with the same damage (cross) on the bottom of the front right door. Tests were carried out in the laboratory. Conditions in the chamber with a hot salt fog, for 40 days correspond - 5 years of normal operation. Car with hot galvania (layer thickness 12-15 μm)
Car with galvanic galvanized (layer thickness 5-10 μm)

Car with cold galvanized (layer thickness 10 microns)
Car with zincometal
Car without galvanovka
It's important to know - Over the years, manufacturers have improved the technology of galvanizing their cars. Machine is a little - will always be galvanized better! - Coating thickness from 2 to 10 microns (micrometers) provides excellent protection against the occurrence and distribution of corrosion lesions. - the rate of destruction of the active zinc layer, in the place of damage to the body, is from 1 to 6 μm per year. Zinc more actively collapse at elevated temperatures. - If the manufacturer has a term "galvanized" not added "complete" It means that only implanted elements have been processed. - Pay more attention to the presence of a manufacturer's warranty on the body, rather than loud phrases about galvanizing from advertising. Additionally

Renault Sandero is a compact budget class car from 2007, a five-door hatchback is produced in the body. This machine is inexpensive, also does not hit the pocket and service of the vehicle. Externally, Sundero resembles Renault Logan, but the design of the hatchback is more attractive.

For the first time, the French model was presented in Brazil, and a little later is shown at the Geneva Motor Show. In Romania, Sandero is known under the Dacia brand, in 2009 the car began to be sold in Belarus and Ukraine.

In late 2009, the Hatchback assembly began to be carried out on the Moscow Automobile Plant "Renault Russia", car created on the Nissan B platform. There is also a version of Renault Sandero Stepway, which differs from the standard model of increased road lumen (by 20 mm), more impressive wheel arches and roof rails.

Many details installed on Sundero are borrowed from Logan, so typical characteristic diseases Hatchback took over from his prototype. In 2012, the world was presented with an updated version of Sundero Stepway, and the Sandero second generation was debuted at the Paris Motor Show.

Body and paintwork

On Renault Sandero, the body is galvanized, the body itself is strong enough. Rust these cars rarely, mostly corrosion arises if the car visited the accident. The paint coating of the body is not bad, chips first appear on the wheeled arches, in the area of \u200b\u200bthe thresholds.

What disadvantages have engines

There are no powerful engines in the Sandero power units line, and it does not have to count here. The most popular is the four-cylinder motor of 1.4 liters and a capacity of 72 or 75 horsepower (8 valves).

Also, the car is installed on the machine of 1.6 liters in two modifications:

16-valve - 84 liters. from.;

8-valve - 106 liters. from.

The 1.4 L engine is somewhat weak, its thrust is missing for a relatively heavy machine. Often this motor works at the limit, and from the load resource of power unit significantly reduced. The 8-valve internal combustion engine of 1.6 liters also do not differ in high power, but it is enough for trips around the city. With a 16-valve dynamics of Sandero, sufficiently, but the car is noticeably more fuel consumed.

Timing belt on 16-CL. The K4M engine is recommended to change every 60 thousand km of run, the replacement of the parts of the gas distribution mechanism is better to produce a set (belt, water pump, tension rollers).

In the model range, the Renault Sandero engines also contains a diesel 1.5 DCI, depending on the modification, its power ranges from 80 to 90 liters. from. Diesel power unit K9K is distinguished by high efficiency and good tight, but in Russia cars Sandero with dieselms are rare.

Gasoline motors installed on Sandero are quite reliable, but some problems still have them. One of the characteristic "diseases" - Enchanting the thermostat, with such a defect motor can overheat or, on the contrary, operate in low temperature mode. Not too long "live" candles and high-voltage wiresThey often break into a lot of dampness.

Sundero gasoline engines have a very good resource, with proper care and careful operation serve 500 thousand km And more than overhaul.

Weak places in transmission units

Only two types of transmission are installed on the hatchback:

5-speed MCPP;

4-speed automatic transmission.

The box-machine goes paired with a 16-valve motor of 1.6 liters, "Mechanics" is put together with an 8-valve engine.

Mechanical box sufficient noisyBut at the same time no defects in it are detected - the transmission switches smoothly, without jerks, speeds are not flying away. While the engine revolutions, three thousand and more on the body a vibration appears, it goes precisely from the MCPP.

The replacement of oil in the "mechanics" is not provided by the manufacturer, the lubricant must be enough for the entire service life of the CAT. But if transmission already passed 100 thousand km, oil in the unit is better to replace, it will not be worse.

Four-stage "automata" are not special reliability, automatic transmission mainly fail due to overheating. The automatic box frequently requires repair on a run of about one hundred thousand kilometers, the oil replacement in the automatic transmission should be made in 50 thousand km.

Chassis and sores in the suspension

Rear suspension on Sandero - Ballery, front - Standard MacPherson. The design of the chassis of the car is quite simple, so the elements of the suspension fail in a whole infrequently. Spare parts for the car are relatively inexpensive, the repair of the running great difficulty does not represent.

First on Renault Sandero "Rent" sleeves and stabilizer racksThey, on average, serve 50-60 thousand km. The rear and front shock absorbers are sensitive to the quality of the road surface, begin to quickly leak if the car is often exploited on a bad road. But in any case, the resource of these parts is at least forty thousand kilometers, the original shock absorbers (70-80 thousand km) go longer.

Steering Reika Not too "alive", first of all plastic sleeve beveling. The manufacturer for Recking Remkomplektov did not provide, but the details can be delivered from another car model, for example, from BMW. Before repairing the steering mechanism, it is necessary to check the hopes in the lugs and traction, the resource of which is 60-70 thousand km.

Life time The front brake pads are standard - an average of about 30-40 thousand km. If you smear the guides of the front calipers, the pads can pass and longer, the resource of parts largely depends on the driving style.

Vehicle interior

The inner interior of Renault Sandero does not represent anything special - the salon looks gray and somewhat sad. But the space inside the car is enough, but the trunk of the machine is small (320 liters), although if you decompose the rear seats, it becomes quite spacious (1200 l). The plastic salon is not too high-quality, but "Sandero" still belongs to the budget class, and therefore it is not worth expecting the best of the salon decoration.

On cars from a cheap segment, galvanized bodies are found, but this is extremely rare. The fact is that to afford such expenses may not be every manufacturer, because in today's crisis, every penny in the account. But the partial method of galvanic and cold coating is used by automakers quite often. We learn from the article whether the body is subjected to Renault Logan Galvania or not.

Difference in the years of release

ATTENTION! Found a completely simple way to reduce fuel consumption! Do not believe? Auto mechanic with 15 years old also did not believe, until he tried. And now it saves 35,000 rubles per year in gasoline!

According to official data and the body of Logan, and the Body Duster is galvanized. On the contrary, the sources of unofficial assured that only some parts of the body are exposed to protective coating from exposure to end-to-end corrosion. This is his outer side, wings and a certain section of the front glass frame.

Yes, but this concerns Renault Logan, produced until 2007. More modern models have galvanized doors, luggage lid and even zinc-treated roof! Agree, for a budget car, what is Logan, this deserves approval.

And that is not all. In order to further protect against the effects of rust, the company's engineers use the "sacrificial anode" technology, which implies the installation of special inserts into weak body locations, such as door loops. This is done in order to rust these most inserts instead of body details.

The reason to think about the issue of galvanizing was the big problem caused by corrosion. The body of renovate Renault Logan and Duster after several years of operation in the literal sense eaten rye. Mostly it concerned cars released in 2005-2006. The manufacturer explained then the unsuccessful choice of LCP.

In fact, according to reliable sources, the culprits of the "weak" paint and varnish coating were the AvtoFramos workers themselves. They improperly applied to the body a special mastic, which ultimately affected the paint negatively.

Today, the quality control is carried out seriously. In the event of the problem described above, the owner is recommended to urgently contact the Renault service, where the car body must repaint.

Renault Logan and Duster resist Russian colds well. If the body was often rotted often, then after the modernization and the transition of quality control to another level, this problem is not observed at all. A test was even spent, the results of which caused only approving comments. On the car, the Duster, operated all year round and contained in the open sky, no hint of corrosion was found.

Does galvanich protect all 100?

It will be interesting to know that the whole galvanism itself, even a complete, 100 percent guarantee of protection against corrosion does not give. This fact was not confirmed by tests and studies. In fact, the metal cincible metal will be protected from corrosion smoothly until a mechanical impact is provided to the surface.

Note. In other words, it is worth a car to face any obstacle on the road, as the corrosion process will begin inevitably in the place where the metal spikes with the foreign object.

Galvanizing and its advantages

The most expensive and important components of the car is the body. The manufacturer knows this and tries to ensure a reliable level of protection of the metal case from the effects of negative reactions.

Today, several technologies can be applied, the purpose of which is reduced to applying zinc on the body. Consider them.

1. Galvanic processing.
2. Coating by thermo.
3. Cold application option.

The first application method is considered to be considered, providing relatively longer protection of the metal part of the frame. On the other hand, this method has great drawbacks. Zinc, as mentioned above, is able to protect the coating, but only for a while. In addition, the galvanic protects only smooth and smooth surfaces, and at the edges and uneven areas zinc becomes useless.

Galvanic application method is also the cheapest. It is often used in Asian countries, in the USA and Europe when processing the vehicle of the budget segment.

Note. The electroplating method can be considered effective only when several simultaneous stages are combined to safety from corrosion exposure.

It is always necessary to remember that as far as the body is galvanized, it requires constant diagnosis and timely anticorrosive processing. If you neglect these rules, it will be impossible to exploit in a short time. On the contrary, if you do everything correctly, the service life of the car with ok can be extended to 10 years or more.

Many manufacturers, like Renault, are exposed to galvanizing only individual elements. The technoprocess itself concerning the processing of zinc is not easy. It requires an existence of expensive and special equipment, special qualifications of workers, etc. In addition, for the full immersion of the body in zinc, they need special galvanic baths of large size.

The heat treatment method is considered more expensive and time-consuming than the electroplating method. But in this case a good result is achieved, giving a full guarantee on the metal component (10-30 years). The effectiveness of such technology is easy to prove, because a thick layer of zinc is applied to the body surface penetrating the heat treatment into the metal.

Note. For the first time, this method was applied to Volkswagen, where and still continues to handle the body using thermal exposure. As for the complete galvanizing of the vehicle body, the pioneer in this case is considered to be Audi.

Cold processing technology also gives good protection to the car. In the process of such applied, a fine zinc is necessarily applied. This method is incredibly effective only upon subsequent quality painting of the body.
