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 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 the 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 the greater temperature stability. A car on synthetics does not need to be "rolled out", it can go 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 has 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 for a car it does not make sense - in winter it thickens like mineral water, and in summer there is no difference….

We agreed - in the summer, if we constantly knead the mud, mineral water and change it more often, in the winter synthetics. 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 has been no such oil in nature for 60 years, but what is now sold under the brand name 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 pouring 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 this very 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 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.

The transfer case on the UAZ Patriot SUV is a unit that is responsible for the distribution of torque from the car 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 premature elimination of breakdowns and prevention of increased wear of working units of the Republic of Kazakhstan is 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 RK. So, the manufacturer recommends pouring gear oil with a viscosity 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 transfer case, box, axles and engine. Why? You can learn more about this from the material. The manufacturer recommends the following types of transmission fluids for an SUV transfer case:

• 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 bridges, 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. You can learn more about this 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 question 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 if 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, so the first thousand kilometers 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 the smallest 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 the material is carried out.

Replacement process

First you need to select the necessary tool for the work. Therefore, you will need a "12" hex wrench, a syringe for filling and a container for draining the mining. It is better to put the car on the inspection hole so that it is convenient to carry out maintenance work. Warm up the vehicle by driving it for at least 15 minutes before replacing it. In this case, the working out will become much thinner and will flow out of the distribution box to the maximum.

Location of plugs on the distributor

If, in the process of draining the lubricant, you notice that its composition is a dark liquid, which practically no longer has its original characteristics, then it should be concluded that the distributor needs a more frequent oil change frequency.

So, the article considered all the important questions about how much oil needs to be poured into the razdatka, which one is better to choose and how it is replaced on the UAZ Patriot SUV. It can be summed up and noted that such a unit without fail requires such preventive measures. Otherwise, if you forget that the transfer case, axles and gearbox need to periodically change lubricants, then this can wrap up unpleasant consequences: from the appearance of noise in these units to jamming of gears during operation. Therefore, it is important to pay special attention to this process, in which this material will help you.

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 Euro-3 environmental level. 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, which in the final design are very large. 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. Elements of foreign production were also used in the cabin, 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 impact 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 from Takata-Petri AG was installed. Instead of the 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-media. 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 passenger handles have 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 rear passengers and a heating system for the rear 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 was 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 transmission system.

1. Resistance to chemical processes (including oxidation and destruction of sealing materials);
2. The presence of antifriction properties;

From semi-synthetic oils:

LIQUI MOLY HYPOID-GETRIEBEOIL TDL 75W-90. A multi-purpose lubricating fluid manufactured by a renowned German manufacturer. In addition to its versatility, this brand has excellent antifriction properties, increased wear resistance and much more. In terms of price and quality ratio, this transmission oil is one of the best in its segment.

Its main advantages are:

1. Universal application;
2. The presence of excellent anti-corrosion properties;
3. Acceptable cost per canister.

From mineral oils:

LIQUI MOLY GETRIEBEOIL 85W-90... It is a mineral lubricating fluid from a German manufacturer. It differs from most of its counterparts in the highest quality of those components that are present in the oil. In addition, the liquid is supplemented with special additives, which, together with the first paragraph, endows the product with excellent properties, which in turn ensures reliable operation of the mechanical unit. Due to its resistance to a wide temperature range, this gear oil can be used all year round. At harsh temperatures, the oil does not thicken, which ensures effective lubrication of rubbing elements. When using such oil, the seals of the manual transmission and the transfer case will not suffer, since it is resistant to chemical processes.

Its main advantages are:

1. High wear resistance;
2. High resistance to low temperature operating conditions;
3. Universal application.

TOTAL TRANSMISSION GEAR 8 75W-80... In terms of versatility and availability, this transmission fluid is also very popular among owners of foreign and domestic cars. The oil has a very good value for money ratio. Unlike most other mineral oils, this product has extended drain intervals.

Its main advantages are:

1. Excellent value for money;
2. Optimum fluidity in all temperature conditions;
3. Optimum viscosity in all temperature conditions;
4. High resistance to low temperature operating conditions.

LUKOIL 80W90 TM-4... The Russian company Lukoil is currently the leader among domestic manufacturers. This was facilitated not only by the very acceptable cost, but also by the fact that there are special additives that give the oil useful properties. It has a universal purpose, and therefore can be used not only in gearboxes, but also in transfer cases. Possesses excellent wear resistance, antioxidant and anticorrosion properties.

Its main advantages are:

1. Acceptable cost per canister;
2. The composition contains complex elements;
3. Good resistance to low temperature operating conditions.
4. Effective lubrication.

In addition to the classic lubricating function, modern automotive oils have many additional qualities. Due to the presence of certain additives in the composition, it provides the greatest mobility of elements, reducing friction, protecting against overheating and corrosion. A special filter installed on the system allows you to retain some of the combustion products and metal chips.

The UAZ Patriot engine has a rather impressive volume - 4.5 liters. This is understandable, since the car has a lot of mass and as an SUV it must have a lot of power. But at the same time, when changing the oil in a car, it should be borne in mind that this motor will require at least 7 liters. At the same time, it is not recommended to make a partial replacement, since a rather large amount of metal chips, soot or spent additives can remain in the system. It is best to purchase 2 large canisters and, if necessary, have a small refill margin.

Replacement should take place at least 10 thousand kilometers or once a year, whichever comes first. It is recommended to use synthetic oil. It is more expensive, but in all its parameters it is much better than mineral. The type of oil is determined primarily depending on the climate where the car will be operated. Basically, for the CIS countries, where the temperature in winter can drop to -40, and in summer it is very hot, the universal composition 0w-40 is suitable. Alternatively, you can use semi-synthetic formulations:

• 5W-30;
• 5W-40;
• 10W-40.

These formulations are quite common at the moment, but it is better to give preference to trusted manufacturers: Castrol, Shell Helix, ESSO, Mobil, Lukoil, Consol.

Gearbox oil.

A large number of rotating parts are concentrated in these nodes. And as with the engine, it is equally important to provide lubrication. In this case, the viscosity parameters will already be different. SAE 85W-90 fluid is recommended. Some patriotic owners are pouring 75W-90 into the bridges. But it should be remembered that this can be done only if the car is used mainly in warm climates. In all other cases, it will thicken strongly, and as a result, a strong hum will appear during movement.

The required volume will vary depending on the type of bridge:

• Spicer2 - 1.55 liters;
• Civilian - 1.2 liters;
• Military type - 1.0 liters.

As a rule, the same liquid is poured into the front and rear axles, the total volume will be no more than 3 liters.

Gearbox oil

• High quality: Mobil 1, Schell, Castrol, Zic. It should be borne in mind that there is also a large number of fakes on the market.
• Medium quality: Mannol, Lukoil, Edge, Elf and Motul and others.

Viscosity parameters should be the same as for bridges - 75W-90 or 85W-90.

When replacing, the lower drain plug is usually unscrewed and the filling is done after the old composition has completely drained. But it should be remembered that the drain hole is not located at the lowest point, so there will always be a little old fluid in the system. In this case, you can use special means for pumping out. A completely empty box holds 2.5 liters of lubricant.

Oil change in UAZ Patriot axles

When operating the car, it is important to follow all the manufacturer's advice. One such tip is axle oil changes. The oil in the patriot bridges changes every 50-70 thousand mileage. But you need to keep in mind that after overcoming the deepest ford, you also need an oil change. The fact is that when the ford passes, the axle gearboxes are immersed in water and water enters the inside of the gearbox through the breather (hole for the gearbox ventilation). On prepared cars, the breather is lengthened (usually taken to the highest point) and the fords can be attacked with the least threat

Oil change in UAZ Patriot axles

For self-substitution You will find useful:

• transmission oil;
• special syringe for filling;
• tank or canister for old oil;
• spotless rags;
• iron brush.

Before changing the oil, it is necessary to drive the car for about 10 km to achieve the operating temperature. Change the oil within 15 minutes after that, only at this temperature you will be able to drain the maximum amount of used oil. After completing the replacement work, record the mileage reading. Carry out the next replacement after 30 thousand km. mileage.
