What oil is better to fill in a VAZ-2112 16 valve engine

How to choose a good oil for a VAZ engine

The selection of a lubricant for domestically produced engines begins with determining the lubricant base. In 2021, there are three types of liquids used.

Mineralka

Motor oils of natural origin are extracted by distillation of sulfurous petroleum. The procedure eliminates some of the foreign impurities that harm the power plant. Due to the minimal set of useful properties, the products can be used on classic units that do not require a high degree of protection. When asked what kind of oil to pour into the engine of a VAZ 2106 and similar models, the manufacturer recommends paying attention to the indicated group.

Semi-synthetics

Half-artificial lubricants are more difficult to produce. Here the mineral base and synthetic groups of additives are combined. Less commonly used is hydrocracking crude oil refining. The technology structures the molecules of raw materials and gives the finished product properties comparable to the most advanced developments.

The characteristics of the oil represent a transitional link between PAO and mineral varieties and have a moderate cost, which ensures constant demand among consumers. If the question is what kind of oil to pour into the engine of a VAZ 2110 and generation analogues, the manufacturer recommends using a similar group.

Synthetics

As of 2021, completely artificial products are the most advanced developments. The liquids are produced by breaking down natural gas into its components. During the processing process, complex hydrocarbons are released, which form the base of the mixture. Another development features the use of polyalphoalefins (PAO). Both technologies make it possible to create a high-tech product that meets the requirements of modern engines.

The manufacturer recommends pouring such oils into the X RAY engine and the latest Lada developments.

HOW TO CHOOSE AN OIL FILTER

The main element that the oil filter on the VAZ 2110 has is the filter part. It is made from a mixture of glass, synthetic and cellulose fibers.

To add rigidity, a special impregnation based on phenol-formaldehyde resins is added. Then, the paper obtained in this way is folded like an accordion and forms a filter element.

A wide rubber cuff is installed to retain oil in the oil lines after the engine stops running.

When buying a new oil filter for a VAZ 2110, you need to pay attention to the following factors:

• The quality of the filter housing and its cover. The seal of the product must be elastic, and the body parts must have high strength.
• The brand of the manufacturer that produces VAZ 2110 oil filters plays a role. The most popular devices, which have many positive reviews, should be preferred.
• Availability of quality certificates. The most reliable ones have it according to the ISO system - an international quality standard.
• The price of the product for a VAZ 2110 car is about 150 rubles.

Replacing the oil filter on a VAZ 2110 is quite simple. The instruction manual indicates where it is located.

It is usually unscrewed by hand; if that doesn’t work, you can pierce the part with a screwdriver and, using it as a lever, you can easily unscrew and remove it. To replace the VAZ 2110 oil filter, it is not necessary to drain the oil.

But after changing the element, some of the liquid leaks out, so after installing a new filter, you need to top it up to the required level.

  Changing the oil in a VAZ 2114

How to change the oil and oil filter on a VAZ 2110 car

The oil filter on the VAZ 2110 and the engine oil are changed after a certain mileage of the car or a period of use with your own hands (see Changing the oil in the VAZ 2110 engine yourself - it’s easy). The need for replacement is indicated by the dark color of the fluid used to lubricate engine parts. This indicates that products of mechanical wear and combustion have entered it. The period for installing a new filter and changing the oil is affected by:

• Year of manufacture and serviceability of the main components of the car.
• Frequency of machine use.
• Her driving style.
• Season of operation.
• The quality of the lubricant used.
• The quality of the fuel poured into the car.

The procedure for changing the oil and filter includes:

Installing the car on a lift or inspection hole.

• The plug is unscrewed from the filler neck. In this case, a vacuum will not form in the assembly, and the oil will drain well from the parts.
• Place a container with a volume of up to five liters under the drain hole.
• The drain plug is unscrewed on the crankcase pan.
• The oil drains from the engine for at least 10 minutes.

Installing a puller for removing the oil filter of a VAZ 2110 car

• Wait until the liquid drains from the engine fitting.
• In the oil filter for the VAZ 2110, up to about half of the housing, you need to fill in new engine oil. This will prevent the formation of an air lock in the car's lubrication system when starting the engine after changing the oil and filter.
• Use a wrench to tighten the drain plug on the engine crankcase. When installing it, no additional sealing gasket is required; the conical self-sealing thread reliably ensures the connection.
• Oil filters for the VAZ 2110 are screwed in by hand, without using any tools.

Installing a new filter

The rest of the oil is added.

How to install an oil filter in a VAZ 2110 can be clearly seen in the video. The use of high-quality filters and their timely replacement will ensure reliable engine operation for a long service life.

Recommendations for choosing engine oil

Based on the type of engine installed in the car, there are general recommendations for choosing car oil. Thanks to these recommendations, you will not go wrong in your choice. There are four nuances that you should pay attention to.

The first nuance that should be taken into account is, of course, the advice of automakers. And this, in fact, is the law, because only the manufacturer can provide accurate data on the fuels and lubricants needed for the car.

The second nuance is the characteristics of the area where this vehicle will be used.

The third nuance is the degree of engine wear (this can be determined by the mileage on the speedometer or through a computer).

The fourth nuance is directly related to the third. The oil that was filled last time is taken into account. If semi-synthetics were previously poured into the car, then it is not uncommon for specific plugs to form in cracks in the rubber. In this case, if the replacement occurs with synthetics, all these plugs will be washed and compression in the engine will not be impaired.

How much oil is in the VAZ-2112 engine

Over many years of use, the owners of the VAZ-2112 have thoroughly studied the advantages and disadvantages of their car, and thus are convinced of its simple design, as well as the possibility of self-repair at home. This is facilitated by inexpensive materials, which are available in all stores, as well as on the secondary market. But despite the convenience and low cost of maintenance, questions may arise during self-repair, since the car is quite unpredictable to repair. For example, changing the engine oil is, at first glance, a simple procedure that does not require professional skills. But in addition to the intricacies of the replacement process itself, knowledge in the field of selection of lubricants is needed. The quality of the oil and its compatibility with the previous fluid are all important, as they affect the reliability of the power plant. In this article we will look at how to choose the right oil according to parameters, types and brands, as well as how much to fill.

Engine oil for Lada

Lada cars are widely used in Russia due to their adaptability to Russian operating conditions, affordable price and low maintenance costs.
Initially, the Lada brand was used by the Volzhsky Automobile Plant for Zhiguli cars intended for export, but then it began to be used for all models of the plant. Currently, in addition to AvtoVAZ, Lada cars are also assembled by IzhAvto. The current Lada model line includes Priora, Kalina, Granta, Largus, Vesta passenger cars, an XRAY crossover, and a 4x4 SUV. Recommended engine oils for Lada depend on the car model and its operating conditions. To select oil by modification, use a special service on our website.

What kind of oil is recommended for VAZ-2112

A very popular option among owners of two-wheel drive cars is the Mobil Super 3000.

Now that all the factors have been considered, we can move on to the list of oils that can be poured into the 16-valve VAZ-2112 engine. According to the manufacturer’s recommendations, as well as service manuals, it is necessary to pour lubricant from the following manufacturers into Lada engines:

It is worth noting that recently there has been an increasing trend in the number of counterfeits in the automotive fuel and lubricants market. Therefore, when choosing an oil, it is worth checking for quality marks and certificates.

Which manufacturer is better, what to choose?

I have prepared many thematic ratings for my site, based on comparing reviews by brand and comparing laboratory analyzes of each model. I recommend checking it out. It's better to see once than to hear 100 times. There is never a clear answer.

• Car oil rating 5w-30
• Rating of oils for winter 0w-20, 0w-30, 0w-40

Oil properties

Before moving directly to considering the issue of choosing engine oil, it is necessary to consider the properties of the liquid, as well as the period for which it retains them . Thus, for 16-valve engines, the shelf life of beneficial qualities is slightly longer compared to 8-valve engines. The basic properties of motor oils can be read on the packaging itself or on the manufacturer’s website, but let’s look at this issue in more detail.

Physical properties

The composition of the oil should cool the heated engine parts. The composition contains substances that promote this process. But, with prolonged use and regular heating and cooling, this property is violated.

This is also facilitated by the accumulation of metal shavings, which occur due to wear of parts.

Oil BP Visco 3000. Change every 12,000 km. Engine mileage is 175,000 km. Judge for yourself!

The whole combination of these factors leads to the fact that after 10,000-12,000 the liquid ceases to fully cool parts, such as the crankshaft, the walls of the liners and the piston. It is because of this that there is an increase in wear of parts.

Chemical properties

According to its chemical properties, the oil should lubricate parts well, but after 11-12 thousand kilometers, these properties are lost , and the maximum lubricating effect is lost.

This is what the oil looks like after 10,000 km. Oil from a 16 valve 124 engine. Dirty and no longer additives.

When this happens, engine parts begin to produce at an accelerated rate, which leads to increased wear, primarily on the crankshaft.

Technical properties

In addition to the above mentioned properties, technical ones ensure the normal operation of the entire power unit as a whole. So, the power unit must also be protected internally from negative factors. It is the oil that creates a barrier between the working influences of the parts and the housing.

How long does it take to change the oil in a 16 valve engine?

According to the manufacturer's standards, the engine oil must be changed every 12-15 thousand kilometers. But, as practice shows, it is recommended to change the lubricant every 10,000 - 11,000 km.

This is due to the fact that the quality of oil produced in the CIS does not reach the regulatory standards that were adopted by the International Convention of Automobile Manufacturers on December 1, 2005.

Oil and oil filter for replacement (TO)

The second factor that influences such a short lifespan of the oil is gasoline, as well as the service life of the car. The older the car, the more often it is necessary to change the oil so that the engine reaches its full service life.

Necessary tools and materials for oil change

To change the oil you will need the following tools:

• wrenches “10”, “17” and “24”;
• oil filter remover;
• wheel wrench;
• containers for used oil;
• gloves;
• bedding on the ground;
• rags;
• new filter and oil.

Suitable components: Semi-synthetic motor oil “Lukoil Lux 10W-40”, (5 l) article number - 19299. Price about 1100 rubles. Original oil filter for the Lada engine 21080101200508. Price 180 rubles. Analogues: BM FO2108 – 140 rubles, JS Asakashi C0065 – 150 rubles.

Prices are current for the summer of 2017 for Moscow and the region.

We warm up the engine, warm oil will drain faster. We put the car on a jack and remove the right front wheel.

We find the drain plug and place a container under it to drain the waste. Unscrew and drain. At the end of the process, install the plug back.

Oil change period in the VAZ 2111 engine

The engine oil of a VAZ-2111 car is changed every 10 thousand km or once a year. In the worst case, this procedure is performed after 6-7 thousand km, if suspicions are detected that the lubricating properties of the oil have deteriorated. This can be confirmed by the following signs: a sudden drop in engine power and traction, low oil level, the presence of dirt deposits and wear products in it, as well as the presence of a burning smell. Typically, oil deteriorates faster during aggressive driving, frequent off-road driving, or in traffic-light city traffic jams with sudden starts and braking.

What's the result?

Taking into account the above information, it becomes clear that Priora 16 valve oil should be selected taking into account the following criteria:

• basic base (semi-synthetic, hydrocracking, synthetic);
• oil viscosity according to SAE (5W30, 10W40, etc.);
• individual approvals and recommendations of the engine manufacturer;

In this case, the manufacturer or brand of the lubricant is not so important, that is, you can safely use oils of domestic and foreign production. However, for all types and types of oil, it is necessary to strictly adhere to replacement intervals, and it is better to change the oil every 10 thousand km, and not 15 thousand, as the engine manufacturer recommends in the manual.

We also recommend reading the article about what hydrocracking oil is. From this article you will learn about the features, as well as the advantages and disadvantages of this type of motor oil, as well as how it differs from other products.

Finally, we note that when purchasing motor oil, you must also purchase lubricant only at trusted points of sale or from an authorized dealer. The fact is that recently there have been a large number of counterfeit products on the fuel and lubricants market. This applies to both domestic products (for example, Lukoil, Rosneft) and products of well-known foreign brands (Shell, Liquid Moly, Mobile, etc.).

What kind of oil to pour into a VAZ 2112 16 valves

To replace VAZ-2112 oil, the manufacturer has established lubricant quality standards corresponding to the API quality level: SG, SH, SJ. It should also be noted that for the correct selection of oil, climatic conditions should also be taken into account. Below are the values ​​of the maximum and minimum annual temperatures, taking into account which you need to select oil for your car.

• from -15 to +45 °С SAE 15W-40;
• from -20 to +30 °C SAE 10W-30;
• from -20 to +35 °С SAE 10W-40;
• from -25 to +20 °C SAE 5W-30;
• from -25 to +35 °C SAE 5W-40.

On engines 21124 and 21120, the use of API SF oil is not allowed, as it has a destructive effect on the rubber parts in the engine.

Criteria for selecting VAZ 2112 oil

All oils are selected based on compliance with SAE, ACEA, API.

• In terms of composition, it is optimal to use semi-synthetics for used VAZs.
• ACEA A3/B3-B4.
• API SG, SH, SJ. The production of VAZ 2112 cars ended in 2008, then it was replaced on the assembly line by the Lada Priora.

AvtoVAZ offers the following table to select the appropriate viscosity:

But most often drivers fill in 10w-40, 5w-30.

Information on viscosity for a specific engine can be found in the motor oil interchangeability catalog: https://www.northsealubricants.com/en/oil-advisor

The catalog can be trusted, the data is taken from car manufacturers. In this case, you can choose not only oil for the engine, but also for the gearbox, power steering, brake system, and cooling system. That is, all liquids.

How much oil to pour into the VAZ 2111 engine

First generation 2111, 1998-2009

The VAZ-2111 station wagon was considered the most practical and expensive representative of the Lada 110 family. From the 2110 sedan, the five-door model received an identical design for the front part of the body, as well as the rear lights. In addition to the increased trunk, there was also the opportunity to place cargo on the roof thanks to roof rails, which the sedan never had. Despite the appearance of the successor to the Lada Priora in 2007, the station wagon remained relevant for a long time. It was offered with a 1.5 carburetor engine, as well as 1.5 and 1.6 engines with an injection power system.

The best engine oil for VAZ 2110-12

Osipov Mikhail, VAZ 2112, driving experience 11 years.

Hi all! My name is Mikhail, now I’ll tell you a story about how I managed to exchange my two-wheeler for a 2010 Camry. It all started with the fact that I began to be wildly irritated by the breakdowns of the two-wheeler, it seemed like nothing serious was broken, but damn it, there were so many little things that really started to irritate me. This is where the idea arose that it was time to change the car to a foreign car. The choice fell on the melting Camry of the tenth years.

Yes, I had matured morally, but financially I just couldn’t handle it. I’ll say right away that I am against loans and taking a car, especially not a new one, on credit is unreasonable. My salary is 24k a month, so collecting 600-700 thousand is almost impossible for me. I started looking for different ways to make money on the Internet. You can’t imagine how many scams there are, what I haven’t tried: sports betting, network marketing, and even the Vulcan casino, where I successfully lost about 10 thousand ((The only direction in which it seemed to me that I could make money was currency trading on the stock exchange, they call it Forex. But when I started delving into it, I realized that it was very difficult for me. I continued to dig further and came across binary options. The essence is the same as in Forex, but it’s much easier to understand. I started reading forums, studying trading strategies. I tried it on a demo account, then opened a real account. To be honest, I didn’t manage to start earning money right away, until I understood all the mechanics of options, I lost about 3,000 rubles, but as it turned out, it was a precious experience. Now I earn 5-7 thousand rubles a day. I managed to get the car buy after half a year, but in my opinion this is a good result, and it’s not about the car, my life has changed, I naturally quit my job, I have more free time for myself and my family. You’ll laugh, but I work directly on the phone)) If If you want to change your life like me, then here’s what I advise you to do right now: 1. Register on the site 2. Practice on a Demo account (it’s free). 3. As soon as you get something on the Demo account, top up your REAL ACCOUNT and go to REAL MONEY!

I also advise you to download the application to your phone, it’s much more convenient to work from your phone. Download here.

When choosing engine oil, you should pay attention to:

1. Engine oil viscosity (SAE)
2. Seasonality (oil for winter, summer or all-season)
3. Composition of motor oil (synthetic, mineral or semi-synthetic oil)
4. Car make (in this case, oil survey for VAZ 2110)

This is discussed in the article on choosing engine oil for a car.

While it is not difficult for an experienced driver to choose oil for a VAZ 2110-12 based on these parameters, it is very difficult for a beginner to decide, and they often buy the motor oil that the seller recommends.

The manufacturer recommends using motor oils with API, SG, SH, SJ quality levels. The viscosity of the oil is selected based on the ambient temperature:

• from -15°С to +45°С – SAE 15W-40
• from -20°С to +30°С – SAE 10W-30
• from -20°С to +35°С – SAE 10W-40
• from -25°С to +20°С – SAE 5W-30
• from -25°С to +35°С – SAE 5W-40

Oil change intervals

There are certain fluid replacement regulations that every VAZ-2112 owner must follow. By the way, all vehicles have such regulations, including buses and trucks. Thus, for the VAZ-2112, the engine oil change period is 15 thousand kilometers. But unfortunately, there are some nuances here. So, in any case, it is necessary to check the condition of the oil, since it may become unusable earlier than required according to the regulations. You can check the level and quality of the fluid using a dipstick - pull it out of the oil filler hole and look at the imprint. If the fluid print is below the Min level on the dipstick, then add oil. As for the condition of the oil, you can tell by its color and smell. So, if the oil is dark brown in color, then this fluid needs to be replaced urgently. The same applies to cases where the oil smells burnt, or even worse, contains metal shavings.

Let's highlight a few more signs that require an urgent oil change:

1. Lost engine power
2. The motor is not running at full power
3. The motor is not able to develop maximum speed
4. Unclear gear shifting, transition to the next speed occurs with a noticeable delay
5. Noises and vibrations
6. Increased fuel consumption

How to track the oil level when changing

You can use the measurement as a guide when changing the oil. This is found in any VAZ engine and is located to the left of the engine itself (on the driver’s side). There are markers on the gauge that track both the normal level and how much oil is currently in the crankcase. In principle, topping up without a complete replacement is allowed, but only if normal compression is maintained during vehicle operation and if the hydraulics do not “knock.”

The average oil consumption per 1000 km of 50 ml only applies to the time when the engine is practically new or the car has been driven very little.

If the car is more than 10 years old, then the consumption increases almost 1.5 times. If you do not replace the filter in a timely manner, a large amount of gasoline combustion products, as well as metal shavings and soot, enter the oil. In this case, it will have to be replaced almost every 5-10 thousand kilometers (the standard resource is every 40-60 thousand).

If the car's engine is in good condition, then approximately 3.5 liters will not be enough. You should not focus on the neck (until it is filled). Here the principle “you can’t spoil porridge with butter” does not work, but only harms. If the permissible level is exceeded, normal compression and oil circulation in the system is disrupted, which accelerates wear of parts and negatively affects hydraulics and the camshaft.

Engine malfunctions and repairs 21124

AvtoVAZ continues to develop 16 valve engines and in 2004 the VAZ 2112 engine was replaced with a 124 engine. It uses a Kalinovsky high block, it is 2.3 mm higher compared to the old block 2112, the piston stroke has increased from 71 mm to 75.6 mm, due to this the volume has become 1.6 liters. On the same block, behind the air filter, above the gearbox casing, there is a platform on which the VAZ engine number 21124 is stamped. By adapting the 124 engine to Euro-3 standards, its environmental performance has increased, low-end traction has appeared, the engine has become quieter and a little noisier than the twelfth .Engine 2110 124 1.6 l. injection in-line 4-cylinder with overhead camshafts, the gas distribution mechanism is belt driven. The service life of the 21124 motor, according to the manufacturer’s data, is 150 thousand km; in practice, the motors run about 200 and even 250 thousand km.

This engine solves the problem of 16-valve engines - the VAZ 21124 engine does not bend the valve, for this purpose there are holes on the bottom of the piston and with standard shafts or sports ones with moderate lift, the owner has nothing to fear. Among the disadvantages, it is necessary to tighten the timing belt once every 15 thousand km. If the VAZ 21124 engine is troublesome, there is a knocking or noise, do not be afraid, this is a common situation for AvtoVAZ. According to general reviews, the 124 engine is considered one of the best VAZ engines and is recommended for purchase, especially if Major improvements are planned. In 2007, a new engine was released, replacing the 124th engine - the well-known Priora engine. In addition, based on the 124 engine, the Super-Auto company produced a 1.8 liter VAZ 21128 engine, something is also said about it above.

There is no point in considering chip tuning of a 124 engine, it will not make any noticeable changes on a standard car, the firmware is needed for more thorough and correct tuning, after the engine has been modified, we will start with it. The simplest and most standard way to increase the power of the 21124 engine is to replace the camshafts with Stolnikov 8.9 280 or Nuzhdin 8.85, install a direct-flow exhaust 4-2-1, a receiver and a 54-56 mm damper, this will give us a total of more than 120 hp, and For more efficient operation of the engine, we change the piston to a lightweight Priora one, this will additionally increase power and reduce fuel consumption.

Engine for VAZ 21124: characteristics, malfunctions and tuning

JSC AvtoVAZ, in the process of producing cars of the tenth family, was constantly improving their power units. And engine 21124 is no exception.

Created on the basis of the 2112 engine in 2004, this engine differed favorably from other engines in this series due to its high environmental characteristics and increased cylinder capacity.

Later it became the prototype of more powerful VAZ power units:

• 21126, which has been installed on the VAZ 2170 Priora since 2007;
• 21128 with a volume of 1.8 liters, mass-produced at the Super-auto enterprise and intended for installation on LADA 112 Coupe, LADA Priora, etc.

Engine Super Auto 21128 16 valves 1.8 l. 105 hp

• What kind of engine oil is filled from the factory (original): Synthetic 5W-30
• Oil types (by viscosity): 5W-30, 5W-40, 10W-40, 15W-40
• How many liters of oil in the engine (total volume): 3.5 liters.
• Oil consumption per 1000 km: up to 50 ml.
• When to change oil: 15000

The VAZ-2112 engine is developed on the basis of the VAZ 2110 engine, but has many modified and changed parts. Units with 16 valves have the following modifications:

• engine 21120 volume 1.5 l (GLI luxury version);
• engine 21124 volume 1.6 l (years of production from 2004 to 2008);
• unit 21128 with a volume of 1.8 liters (100 hp, luxury version of the car from Super-auto JSC).

Using the example of a classic 21120 engine with a volume of 1.5 liters on a VAZ 2112, we will show how the most common maintenance procedure is performed - changing the oil.
