Replacement coolant (antifreeze) in the car Daewoo Lanos. (Daewoo Lanos)

With the coming of the autumn-winter period, many motorists think: in what condition coolant (tosol or antifreeze) In their car, is it time to replace cooling liquidsWhat to fill in the engine cooling system - tosol or antifreastz and, of course, many motorists are worried about the question, is it possible to replace the coolant with their own hands? Answers to all these questions you will find in this article. It will describe in it replacing antifreeze in the car Daewoo Lanos (Daewoo Lanos). To begin with, we are determined with the type of cooling liquids. According to the instructions of the automaker, in the car Daewoo Lanos. need to pour antifreeze (based on ethylene glycol) We follow the instructions and are not trying to use Tosol or God forbid water. Why not use Tosol?

Please get acquainted with the article Tosol or antifreeze - make the right choice And remove this issue from the agenda.

1. On the recommendation of the manufacturer's plant, the coolant should be changed after 4 years of car operation or after 40,000 km. Run.
2. Low coolant density liquids (in our case, it antifreeze). But for this you will have to acquire a special range.
3. Not natural color of antifreeze - bleached, dark or brown - a clear sign of "Disease" coolant.

Further. how many Antifreeze buy? Here we come back to the instructions from the manufacturer. What oil is suitable in the KAMAZ Bridge. How often should be replaced. How many liters of oil are poured into KAMAZ bridges. For each car, it is different. For example, for our car Lanosindicated volume 7 lithrov. Replacing the coolant in Daewoo Sens I recorded this video Replacing the cooling. But, based on personal experience, I can advise to buy 5 lithrov Antifreeze you are enough. I explain why five lithrov. Due to the features of the engine engine design Daewoo Lanos.where there is no drain plug on the block, to merge the antifreeze completely fail! With all the tricks that will be described below, a cooling fluid remains in the engine block. So that take the full volume of antifreeze makes no sense. Antifreeze brand I will not advise, since the choice in the markets and stores is very large and no one will insure you from the purchase of a fake with the sticker of the recommended brand. If you have familiar or friends at the car market or automata, then you can consult with them. If not, we ask you to show the quality certificates of the goods sold.

By car Lanos 1.5 2006 made a replacement coolant, the replacement of which was not produced 8.

After deciding with the volume and brand of antifreeze, check the presence of the necessary tool to replace antifreeze in the car Daewoo Lanos. You will need: Pasal or screwdriver (depending on the clamps installed on the hoses), the tank for the drain of the old cooling liquids, Item key to "10" (for removing the expansion tank - if it is contaminated) and the jack (for which it is needed, you will learn later), the watering can for the "neat" antifreeze bay - welcome.

1. We carry out the replacement only on the "cold" engine. Install the car on a flat surface. We find, in the lower left corner of the radiator, a drain plug (photo 1) and unscrew it (photo 2).

2. We substitute the drain container liquids And we unscrew the cork on the plugging of the expansion tank (photo 3).

3. For a better plum and the subsequent "high-quality" antifreeze bay using a screwdriver (photo 5) or Pasal (photo 4), we remove the hose from the throttle node.

4. How much to pour oils in total 2 liters of oil 8 to 2 liters are written). But in. Above it has already been said that on the engine of the car engine Daewoo Lanos (Daewoo Lanos) No drain plug and drain all the liquid will not work. The quality of the coolant is important for normal engine operation. From the article you can find out how to merge and pour a new coolant in Volkswagen Passat B5 .... But, as they say, you can try to merge as much antifreeze as possible. To do this, you need to raise the rear or front right wheel of the car with the help of a jack. This will help some more "squeeze" cooling liquids from the engine.

5. If the coolant is dirty, then the engine cooling system should be flushed using water. To do this: tighten the drain valve on the radiator and pour water into the expansion tank with the help of watering can be pouring to the moment when water does not flow from the removed throttle hose. How many litters of oil in a box of KAMAZ with a divider. After, we put on the hose, we twist the dummy tube expansion tank and run the car engine. Let him work for a few minutes, wasting and draining the water. We repeat the procedure until pure water flows from the cooling system. Often, the expansion tank itself can be strongly contaminated. It can also be rinsed. For Chevrolet Lanos, video "Replacing a coolant in Daewoo Sens. To do this, it is necessary to remove it, using Passatias (we disconnect the three pipes from the expansion barrel) and unscrew two nuts to the end key to "10". Remove it and rinse with water.

On VAZ cars from 2101 to VAZ 2107, in the general classics. This process of changing coolant on all models of vase is very similar to the replacement process, on other cars of the Zhigul family.

Choosing a cooling fluid for VAZ 2101 - 2107

First you need to decide on the type of coolant, as well as the number of which will be enough. If you have any questions regarding quantities, open the instructions on it 9.85 liters neededSo you need to buy 10 liters of antifreeze or antifreeze. But to decide what is better toosol or antifreeze, it is hardly unlikely to succeed. And then the question is about "what to fill?". Antifreeze or Tosol? There is no single opinion.

Personally, I use antifreeze. It has several advantages, there is an opportunity to buy an already ready solution that can be immediately used. Or concentrate and breed it with distilled water, and it is necessary to comply with the proportion of 50 to 50. On the site there is an article in which we can also view information on the Internet.

At the expense of the tool ... you will need:

caid key to "13", screwdriver, as well as the container in which we will flow out the old cooling fluid (the key can be useful to "30").

Tosol drain from radiator

The replacement process itself is very simple, but I will describe it.

Before you begin to drain the old liquid, the heating crane control lever is mandatory to the right position, only after that the crane opens. The plug of the expansion tank is unscrewed, the plug of the filling neck is unscrewed.

Carefully inspect the left lower corner of the radiator, there we will find the plug of the drain hole and unscrew, the liquid is drained into the cooked container.

It is worth remembering that the radiators of the old sample, such a cork do not have. It replaces the fan power sensor, take the key to "30" and unscrew it. If you have been made, you will find it there.

On the engine itself, too, we also find a plug, it is unscrewed by the key to "13". When you already drained all the liquid, it is necessary to spin all the plug holes.

In order to avoid the formation of an air traffic jam in the system, you need to unscrew the horage of the clamp, after, from the fitting of the intake manifold to remove the hose.

How to fill the coolant?

All, now you can already pour antifreeze. As soon as the fluid begins to flow from the fitting, it means you can already put the hose and tighten the clamp. After, the radiator is fully filled and the plug is twisted. Antifreeze is poured in terms of level, it is 3-4 cm from the MIN mark.

After the engine starts, it warms up to the operating temperature, the level of antifreeze is checked again and once again. If necessary, pour.

The characteristics of the car correspond to the declared parameters only subject to the terms of use. One of the most important factors to maintain the resource of the engine and other vehicle systems is compliance with the temperature regime.

At the very first signs of deviations from the norm, it is worth contacting the specialists, or with the appropriate qualifications to correct the problems independently.

What is needed for?

Temperature oscillations are very significant and in practice the difference sometimes reaches 150 ° C. For example, if the engine housing in the working mode is heated to + 110 ° C, and the air on the street will be 40 ° C. Naturally water is not suitable for these purposes, but the cooling The fluid has the desired characteristics.

Timely check of its level is one of the basic criteria for servicing the car. It is necessary to ensure the following parameters:

1. Security. Overheating can cause an unexpected breakage while driving, which can lead to extremely undesirable consequences.
2. Economy. This procedure will save the car owner from expensive repairs caused by premature wear of parts and vendors of the car.
3. Reliability. In winter, the operation of the modern car is impossible without antifreeze. The insufficient level of this fluid is extremely dangerous, it is no coincidence that the literal translation from the English of this concept means "non-freezing".

You can check the coolant level every time there is a reason to open the hood. It is recommended to plan to control its number at least 2 times a year. Complete fluid replacement make every 2-3 years.

What does the coolant level affect?

The required amount of antifreeze supports the car system in the optimal state. The characteristics declared by the manufacturer are achievable only at the recommended cooling fluid level and directly affect the following parameters:

1. Boiling temperature. The calculated value is about 110 ° C. The engine is not recommended above this value. The cooling system is designed in such a way that the continuous coolant duct in a circle through the radiator and the system of channels of the power unit supports the temperature balance of 60 ° C to 108 ° C.
2. Engine starting. In the cold season, it is important that antifreeze is moving in the system. Water at temperatures below zero turns the ice, and the route of its movement in this case will be blocked, which will lead to engine overheating. Tosol and antifreeze, depending on the brand, does not freeze at temperatures up to - 65 ° C. In most cases, there is enough coolant resource calculated to -40 ° C;
3. Operation of the hydraulic transmission system. In many modern cars with automatic transmission, it is necessary to maintain the optimal temperature in the transmission. Cooling fluid In this case, the most effective solution to the problem.
4. Additives and additives in the coolant. They give her additional qualities, and this, first of all, affects anti-corrosion properties. In addition, the balanced composition does not allow the scale to form and has a lubricating effect.

How much antifreeze should be?

Functions performed by coolant are also important in summer, and in winter, so regular system check is an urgent need. The disadvantage or substandard qualities of this fluid are depleted by the engine resource, and in some cases, lead to a breakdown and, as a result, to expensive and troublesome repair.

You can check the system status in an absolutely any car. The event is simple, since machine manufacturers provide unhindered access to the control device.

Exact information about the coolant volume for a particular model is indicated in the car passport. It is also easy to find in and specialized tables on thematic sites or consulted with a mechanic or sales manager.

It is important to remember such a rule: mixing different antifreeze on the composition is not recommended.

It is necessary to know the brand of its coolant, and in all dubious cases to contact a specialist. Otherwise, you will have to make a complete replacement of fluid.

If it is flooded, for example, the blue antifreeze, then it is impossible to add red.

But it is not necessary to navigate only on color too. Different manufacturers use their exclusive developments, while the compatibility of ingredients with the same color no one can guarantee.

Check the level of antifreeze

The need to control the cooling system does not cause questions, but how to implement it in practice?

Today, two basic methods of checking the level of coolant are adopted:

Having twisted the sensor, examine its work part. This is usually a white cylinder on which traces of antifreeze should be present. If the device is dry, then it is necessary to add antifreeze, and the sensor is changed.

Add cooling fluid

The procedure for adding a coolant does not represent any difficulties. However, it is necessary to do this without just a disconnected engine. A car gives some time to cool. Place of fill is indicated in the manual. If there is no one at hand, then you need to consult from specialists.

The sequence of operations is as follows:

• open the hood;
• we find the expansion tank and inspect it, determining the level of fluid relative to the marks;
• making sure that the motor is cooled, carefully unscrew the lid. The pressure difference may be significant, so it is necessary to open the tank carefully without hurrying. Making sure that under the lid stopped hissing, boldly unscrew it to the end;
• dress gloves, open the container with the desired brand of antifreeze or antifreeze;
• top up to the required marker coolant;
• tightly tighten the lid of the expansion tank.

In some old models, the addition of coolant is made directly into the radiator, and its level is determined by the dipstick. In the modern cars, the expansion tank is noticeable. To add antifreeze to the middle position between Max and MIN marks will be able to any adequate car owner.

Not so rarely occur when the happy owner of a car rides on its vehicle, without even looking under the hood. Such operation is not allowed. For example, from the combustion system can find the entire antifreeze, and then it will be necessary to carry out the overhaul of the engine. Therefore, it is necessary to monitor the presence of coolant (coolant) and know which one is filled into the system.

Cooling system VAZ 2114

Once, even in Soviet times, water was poured into the car radiator as a coolant. But it was very uncomfortable - in the frost it was necessary to regularly merge so as not to defrost the system, and in the morning before the trip you needed to run with buckets of hot water. In addition, the cooling shirt has suffered from corrosion in the cylinder block and in the block head. In our time, water is already practically not used, poured into the cooling system (CO) toosol or antifreeze.

The volume in CO is about 8 liters (7.8 liters of factory conditions). In a car that came down from the conveyor, any coolant can be filled, the manufacturer does not adhere to any specific rules in this matter.

But if the fluid goes or the period of its replacement came, then a topping or replacement is necessary. And here you need to know what is flooded in the system, and is it possible to mix antifreeze with Tosol.

ANTIFREEZE

The name "Antifreeze" contains Greek and English roots. Greek "anti" means "against", the English "frieze" is translated as "freezing". Therefore, the coolant, the coolant, should not only prevent the overheating of the DVS, but also do not freeze in frosty weather. The basis of antifreeze is ethylene glycol, and from how much water is added to the chemical composition, the freezing temperature of the coolant depends. The components of the fluid do not lead to the emergence of corrosion of engine parts.

In color, the composition can be almost any color, ethylene glycol itself is colorless. Color the composition in order to see it in case of leaking, and to drank, antifreeze itself poisonous. In addition, the old coolant changes the color, which means it is time to make her replacement.

Tosol

Tosol is a type of antifreeze, only at one time was specifically designed for VAZ cars. It has a blue color, and can be concentrated, diluted with 60% water (A-40M brand), diluted by 35% (A-65M). In pure form, the concentrate is not applied, it is diluted at its discretion depending on the freezing temperature, which is focused in the region of finding a car. Tosol has a more aggressive environment, but it does not mean that it is low quality.

Myths about Tosuole and Antifreeze

• Tosol worse antifreeze. This is not true. Both coolants are made on the same basis (on ethylene glycol). But they have different density, and to measure this parameter are used.
• The color of the liquid is an indicator of quality, and its composition depends on the color. In fact, the composition mostly in all the coolant is similar, and it does not depend on the color. Antifreeze is mainly tinted with green and red.

Filling fluid into the system

What cooling fluid to pour in, always worries the car owners of these machines. There is no big difference, you can pour antifreeze into the cooling system, you can also toosol, but it is still very undesirable to mix the compositions. Tosol has a more aggressive medium at the expense of other additives, and its too concentrated composition can even with time even "Discuss" radiator. Top in that brand of coolant, which was replaced in the system. If the brand is not known, then it is better to complete the fluid replacement.

Replacement with flushing

Is it possible to replace Tosol on antifreeze? Why not. It is only necessary to rinse the cooling system when replacing antifreeze toosol. Conversely, you need to wash the cooling system when replacing antifreeze to Tosol. Already indicated - compositions are different and mixing can lead to foaming of coolant. Of course, the explosion will not happen, but the long-term use of mixed composition is not recommended. Rinse the system should be pure water, and the water changes several times. It was washed to the moment that the transparent liquid does not merge from the radiator, without dirty impurities.

Replacing the coolant on the VAZ is made with their own hands in stages:

1. We put the car exactly, under the tilt all the coolant may not merge;
2. expansion tank;
3. Turn the drain plug at the bottom of the radiator. Capacity where the contents of the radiator are merged, we prepare in advance;
4. Twist the cork on the cylinder block, drain the coolant from the block. To get to the plug, you need to remove the ignition module. The module is attached to three bolts;
5. Watch the plugs, pour water and run the engine. Let's work fifteen minutes;
6. As already written above, we rinse the system several times;
7. Then pour a new liquid and run the air stopper. How many tosol liters in the VAZ 2114 is provided, so much and should log in.

Removing air traffic jam

How to pour antifreeze when an air traffic jam? There are different ways to fill liquid (Consider below).

Removal of air through the throttle node:

1. Remove one of the hoses of the feed of the coolant.
2. Remove the plug of the expansion tank and cover the tank with a clean rag.
3. I blow through a rag into the tank until the cooled of the hose is poured.
4. Quickly put the hose to the place, tighten it with a clamp, pour fluid to the level. How many toosol in the VAZ 2114 will still enter, depends on how "brought" the system.

Removal of air through choke without removing the plug plug:

1. Heat the engine and the wilderness.
2. Remove one of the throttle hoses.
3. After a short time, the air should go out and flush tosol.
4. Also quickly wear a hose.
5. Check the level of the coolant and fill it as needed.

Air removal by installing a car under the tilt:

1. We drive on the rise.
2. Remove the tank tube.
3. Warming up the motor to the operating temperature.
4. Sharp gas. If the liquid fails into the system, fill it.

You can independently change the cooling radiator on the VAZ. In this case, an air traffic jam can also be formed. It is necessary to control how many Tosol liters in the VAZ 2114 will enter. If there is a lot of new coolant in the canister, you need to drive the plug, otherwise you can overheat the engine.

It should be remembered that the amount of cooling system in the VAZ 2114 is approximately 7.5-8 liters.

If you do not want to mess with the replacement of the coolant, you can drive the car into the car service. The cost of such work depends on the region and the degree of equipment of the automotive workshop or the center. On average, the price fluctuates around 300 to 600 rubles.

• Hot liquid must be merged carefully, use gloves and dense moisture-proof clothing.
• After replacement, you need to check if there is no air traffic jam in the system. Air must be expelled, otherwise you can overheat the engine.
• When merging the fluid, a polyethylene package or a cloth should be avoided in order to avoid hitting it.
• When mixing antifreeze with antifreeze, nothing particularly terrible will happen, but it is still desirable to avoid mixing.

Take care of your car!

We figured out what we need and what are cooling fluids. In the second part, we will tell you in detail about which "cooling" to choose for a particular model and how to change the antifreeze with your own hands.

How to choose a cooling fluid for a car?

When buying a coolant for the car, we advise you to adhere to the recommendations of the factory-produce. In the operating manual, it is clearly indicated which antifreeze can be used in the engine cooling system of a car. If for some reason you cannot find the liquid that flooded into your car from the factory, buy coolant, close to the characteristics to the stock. Find out which antifreeze is suitable for your car from official dealers.

How much antifreeze is to fill in the engine cooling system?

The amount of coolant for a particular car model is indicated in the instruction manual. On average, you will need 6-8 liters of "cooler".

How to replace the cooling fluid with your own hands?

In replacing the "cooler", there is nothing complicated from the plant, so this operation can be carried out independently. We advise you to put on the gloves for changing the coaming of Co. - cooling fluids are very toxic, while entering open areas, skin can absorb through the skin and cause severe poisoning.

Algorithm for replacing antifreeze in the car looks like

• Install the machine on the lift (observation pit);

• Open the hood, we unscrew the lid of the expansion tank, the radiator, the engine cylinder block, we are promoting the thermostat case (there may be up to 1 liter of the coolant);

• Open the tap of the heating system radiator;

• We merge the old cooling fluid into the prepared pre-package (up to 10 liters)

• We wash the system by distilled water (the required amount is from 10 liters). In this case, we turn on the engine that should work from 30 minutes to an hour - depending on which contamination was in the cooling system;

Attention: If the antifreeze in the system has not changed for a long time, and in the liquid fusion you found impurities, then the system of the system is probably contaminated with rust and sediments that additives gave. In this case, the washing of the system is carried out by special detergents based on organic acids (sorval or ant). After washing the engine cooling system, it should be rinsed with a distilled water line.

• Tighten the corks of radiators, the cylinder block, screw the thermostat case;

• In the neck of the expansion tank, we pour a new cooling fluid, set the tank cover;

• We bring the engine, let it work for 15-20 minutes. Then check the level of "cooler" by tags on the expansion tank. If necessary, fill the antifreeze to the desired level (the liquid should be between the MIN and MAX marks).

Pour antifreeze into the expansion tank
