Where is the oil filter located?
The oil filter in the Lada Largus is located next to the crankcase and the drain plug. It is easy to recognize by its cylindrical case, which is predominantly blue. It can be unscrewed by hand, but if it is tightened too tightly, additional tools may be required.
In some assemblies, the location of the filter element may vary. To obtain the necessary information, refer to the technical documentation or find the oil filter yourself. Also, for easy access to it, additional steps may be required to dismantle the pipes and units.
Preparation for replacement and necessary tools
The process of preparing to replace the Largus oil filter includes three main points:
- purchase of new parts and consumables;
- parking the car on level ground;
- warming up the engine to operating temperature if it has not been running for a long time.
For convenience, it is recommended to use an overpass, inspection hole or lift. In the absence of the appropriate opportunity, the car is raised using a jack and supports.
When working with oil, pay attention to safety precautions. The main emphasis is on its high temperature and toxicity
To avoid thermal and chemical burns, the entire procedure should be performed with rubber gloves and overalls.
The list of tools for replacing the oil filter in Lada Largus consists of the following equipment:
- a set of keys and screwdrivers, a collar with attachments, a probe, pliers;
- clean, lint-free rags or rags, rubber gloves;
- container for draining used lubricant;
- new oil, funnel for filling;
- new oil filter, seals and gaskets, and other components to replace worn parts.
During the preparation process, it is also recommended to check the system for worn connections, which can soon lead to breakdowns and leaks. Preventative replacement of parts allows you to avoid costly repairs and unforeseen complications.
Step-by-step replacement instructions
The sequence of replacing the oil filter for Lada Largus implies the following procedure:
- in the engine compartment, uncork the filler neck;
- dismantle the lower engine protection;
- Place a container under the drain in the lower part of the crankcase and unscrew the plug;
- the heated lubricating fluid usually drains within 10-15 minutes;
- during this time, clean the plug, change the washer if necessary;
- They also place a container for used lubricant under the oil filter and unscrew it;
- remove the cartridge, make sure that the perforated tube remains in place, clean the internal cavity of the casing dry;
- the rubber seals of the new filter element are lubricated with oil, some also wash the filter itself;
- Next, the filter element is mounted in place, while tightening, monitor the position of the sealing rubber bands - if they come out of the grooves, a leak will soon appear;
- tighten the drain plug, return the system to its original form;
- New lubricant is poured into the filler neck.
Based on the volume of oil poured, they are guided by the amount that was drained. Some experts recommend immediately filling it to the maximum, arguing that as the engine warms up, the oil will disperse throughout the system.
After filling, start the engine and let it run for 10-15 minutes. At first, the emergency light may come on, indicating a lack of oil in the system.
After warming up, measure the lubricant level - in the heated state, its amount should not exceed the upper permissible limit on the dipstick. If necessary, the excess is pumped out with a syringe or bulb.
It is also recommended to measure the oil level when the engine has cooled down - the volume should not be below the permissible minimum. After the first trips, it is recommended to check the system and oil filter for leaks.
Preparation for replacement and necessary tools
Novice drivers sometimes have no idea which oil filter for the Lada Largus is best for them to buy. To do this, you can refer to the factory’s recommendations and inspect the model of the product that was installed off the assembly line. It is advisable to purchase this component made by one of the world's famous manufacturers. Buying a fake is almost equivalent to a clogged filter.
Most products of this operating principle are a glass with a metal body. Inside there are two valves for inlet and outlet and the filtration element itself, made of special paper. Before replacing it, you should carry out preparatory work and stock up on equipment. It is necessary to consider the location, since the car will have to be raised above the ground. Before starting work, warm up the engine for several minutes so that the old lubricant becomes more liquid and flows out more easily.
Now you need to prepare the following:
- consumable components (new lubricant and filter assembly);
- set with wrenches (socket, socket, wrench);
- removable filter key;
- set of rags;
- watering can;
- empty container for “working off”.
The role of the container is usually played by any empty plastic canister. If a puller is not available, then use any available tool such as a screwdriver or chain.

Largus gearbox oil partial and complete replacement
Approach to the Lada Largus engine
Let's start with the fact that the manufacturer indicates in the manual that there is no need to change the oil in the Lada Largus gearbox, that is, the gearbox is considered maintenance-free. In other words, it is filled with lubricant for the entire service life of the vehicle, and changing the transmission oil may only be necessary if the gearbox is repaired.
In practice, the situation is somewhat different, since any lubricants have their own service life. In parallel with this, gearbox wear products accumulate in the oil. This means that the oil in a fully functional gearbox needs to be changed earlier to protect the unit from wear.
Taking into account the recommendations of specialists and experienced car enthusiasts, it is optimal to replace every 60-80 thousand km. If the car is constantly used in difficult conditions, then changing the oil in the gearbox may be necessary after 50 thousand km. mileage
So, on the Lada Largus, Elf 75W80 Tranself TRJ oil is poured into the gearbox from the factory. As for the level and condition of the transmission oil, it is optimal to perform checks every 15-20 thousand km. In this case, in the case of topping up, you need to use only the oil that is already poured into the gearbox.
This means that even if a lubricant with similar properties was selected, an undesirable reaction may occur between the additive packages, which will lead to a significant deterioration or loss of useful properties of the entire volume of lubricant.
If a complete replacement is performed, the old lubricant must first be drained, after which transmission oil is poured in, which meets all manufacturer’s tolerances.
Let's move on to checking the oil level in the Lada Largus gearbox and adding lubricant to the gearbox if necessary. To check the level and add oil to the box, you need to prepare: a syringe, a container, a wrench with a square head of 8, suitable oil.
The necessary syringe can be purchased at an auto parts store. At the same time, the kit includes a rubber hose that allows you to reach the filler holes.
- To check the level, first you need to remove the engine protection, after which you need to unscrew the gearbox filler plug with a key. In this case, before unscrewing the plug, you should place a container so that the oil does not spill on the floor.
- Normally, the oil level in the gearbox should be slightly below the edge of the filler hole. If there is not enough oil, it needs to be added. To do this, you need to insert a syringe filled with lubricant into the filler neck.
- The liquid is added until it begins to flow out through the control hole. In this case, you need to wait until the oil stops leaking. Only after this can you tighten the plug, after wiping the place where it is installed with a clean rag.
- Let's also add that there is an O-ring on the plug. If its condition or integrity is in doubt, then it is better to replace such a ring immediately. Otherwise, oil may leak from under the plug.
If there is a need to completely change the oil in the Largus gearbox, the procedure will require similar tools and actions as with regular topping up. In terms of filling volume, about 3 liters of gear oil will be required.
It is also advisable to keep a small reserve, since there is a possibility that during further operation it may be necessary to add oil to the box.
Please note that the box can fit less than 3L. oil, since certain residues of old lubricant remain in the cavities of the box
You should also pour fresh oil into the filler hole slowly and gradually.
Once lubricant begins to flow out of the inspection hole, we can assume that the box is completely filled with transmission fluid. In this case, you need to tighten the plug, after which it is advisable to start the internal combustion engine and at idle speed with the clutch depressed, you should engage different gears of the manual transmission.
This will allow the oil to be distributed throughout the gearbox. In some cases, after this procedure, the engine is turned off, after which the lubricant level in the gearbox is checked again.
Fuel filter for Lada Lagrus
Why the engine oil quickly turns black: reasons, black oil in the engine
The basic configuration of the Lada Lagrus involves the use of a single fuel module to purify fuel for a 1.6 MT engine. In the AvtoVAZ catalog, the electric fuel pump module for Lada Largus has the original number: 172024388R. The filter element itself is a special paper; it is not sold separately and does not have its own number. The entire electric fuel pump module is sold assembled with a fine and coarse fuel filter and it is originally expensive, as for a domestically produced car. Technical parameters are shown in the table below.
| Dimensions of fine fuel filter Lada Largus | |||||
| External diameter, mm | Length, mm | Current strength up to, A | Voltage, W | Pressure, psi | Pressure, bar |
| 134 | 198 | 4,4 | 12 | 50,75 | 3,5 |
There are analogs from cheaper manufacturers on the market.
| Manufacturer | vendor code | price, rub. |
| Henko | MV-PFA18 | 2515 |
| Ween | 192-0001 | 3851 |
The coarse fuel filter is a mesh made of polymer material in the electric fuel pump module installed in the fuel tank of the car. The coarse fuel filter is also sold assembled with an electric fuel pump module and does not have its original number. But such meshes are available for sale from different manufacturers, for example, the manufacturer Francecar offers such a mesh under the number: FCR210141. This is what Largus owners most often purchase.
When should you change?
The automaker claims that the fine fuel filter is designed for the entire service life of the car, and the service life of the Lada Largus itself, again according to AvtoVAZ, is 160 thousand kilometers, that is, we get a service life of the fine fuel filter of 160 thousand kilometers, some simply an incredible figure for any filter. One of its closest relatives, Renault Logan, has an engine life of up to 300,000 km, and the fuel filter is replaced according to maintenance every 50,000 - 60,000 km. Consequently, the conclusion suggests itself that replacing a fine fuel filter in most cases requires replacement up to 100 thousand kilometers, and a coarse filter can last no more than 35-45 thousand km. mileage Just change or clean the choice is yours.
WHAT OIL IS IDEAL FOR LADA LARGUS
How long does it take to change engine oil?
One of the main tasks is the correct choice of engine oil, which should be suitable for a 16-valve engine. Motorists face the first difficulties even at the selection stage, as annoying mistakes are often made.
Important! The quality of engine oil has a significant impact on the functioning of the engine and its wear resistance.
If unsuitable or low-quality oil is used, there is a risk of significantly reducing the service life of the vehicle. Moreover, if the Lada Largus car is under warranty, you cannot use low-quality consumables, because, otherwise, the opportunity to repair the engine with the involvement of the warranty service will be lost.
In order for the Lada Largus oil change to be carried out correctly and successfully, it is recommended that you carefully read the service manual for the car. It is this document that indicates the parameters that the technical fluid used must have.
In engines with 16 valves, it is recommended to fill in motor fluids of the following classes:
- SL;
- API;
- SM.
In this case, the substance must necessarily correspond to a certain level of viscosity, which is determined by the SAE standard:
If you conduct a thorough study of the available products, it becomes possible to understand that the best motor oils are offered by the following foreign and domestic manufacturers with an ideal reputation:
- Shell Helix;
- Elf;
- ZIC;
- TNC;
- Lukoil.
It is important to understand that the viscosity grade of the engine oil used for Lada Largus must comply with the recommendations of the automobile manufacturer. Otherwise, problems will inevitably arise when using the car.
Replacement is allowed no earlier than after 15 thousand kilometers. If the vehicle has already undergone its first change, it is best to change the oil again after 10 thousand kilometers.
Care should be taken to carry out the necessary procedure if the technical fluid used has lost its properties or characteristics:
- the color turned black;
- deposits and sediments, metal rash and other components appeared in the composition, indicating a significant deterioration in the quality of the motor oil;
- the consistency has become very liquid, as a result of which technical oil can be compared with ordinary water.
The use of consumables with such violations of properties will never turn out to be anything good or positive. In this regard, it is advisable to take care of the mandatory event in advance, because otherwise, the internal combustion engine and the entire system may suffer.
Changing the oil in the Lada Largus engine 16 valves with your own hands on video
Changing engine oil correctly is the key to successful engine operation and confidence that the power plant will last as long as possible. The oil change procedure is available to everyone - not only at the dealership, but also in the home garage. In this article, we will look at the process of changing engine oil using the example of such a popular car as the Lada Largus with a 16-valve engine.
Which oil to choose
Especially for Lada Largus, only original lubricants from trusted brands are recommended for purchase. You can also use an analogue, but only on condition that it complies with the parameters specified in the Lada Largus user manual. For Lada Largus, you must select a liquid that has the following markings on the packaging indicating the quality class, tolerance types and viscosity: API, SL , SM, 5W-30, 5W-40, 0W30, 0W-40.
Recommended brands: Elf, Lukoil, ZIK, Shell Helix, TNK.
The higher quality the oil, the better its beneficial properties. When using original lubricant, you do not have to worry about premature failure of important engine components. But at the same time, we must admit that even the highest quality oil will sooner or later lose its properties. In this regard, there are certain regulations for changing the oil.
When to change
The engine oil in Lada Largus is replaced no later than after 15 thousand kilometers. In some cases, the regulations are reduced to 10 thousand if the machine is operated in difficult climatic zones.
In addition, the need to replace engine fluid can be determined by the following signs:
- The oil has turned black and has a burning smell.
- When checking the fluid level, it was discovered that the oil contained dirt and metal shavings
- The engine is not running at full power and is consuming too much fuel
- Extraneous noise and vibrations occur
Oil change materials
- New motor lubricant
- New oil filter element
- Tools – wrenches, hexagons, sockets and screwdriver
- Technical bucket for draining used oil
- Clean towel, rubber gloves
Sequence of work
Drive the car onto the overpass, warm up the engine to operating temperature. Climb under the bottom of the car. The first step is to dismantle the motor protection, if any. To do this, unscrew several bolts. Using a rag, thoroughly wipe the oil pan from dirt and deposits. In particular, pay attention to the area around the drain plug - it must be perfectly cleaned and degreased. Unscrew the drain plug and observe the process of drainage of the waste liquid. The old oil will flow into the pre-prepared pan. Wait until the oil is completely drained, then tighten the plug back. Measure the amount of drained liquid. This is very important, because this is how much new oil will need to be introduced into the filler hole. In the place of the drain hole there is a steel washer that may have to be replaced The next stage is replacing the old filter element with a new one
To do this, we use a special key, and smoothly unscrew the filter, and carefully remove it from the thread. If there is no special key, instead you can use a screwdriver to pierce the filter housing. In this case, the screwdriver will act as a lever
Pull it towards you and unscrew the filter. Clean the seat for the new filter from deposits. Dirt, grime, dust and metal shavings usually accumulate there. After cleaning, we place a new element in the seat, provide access to the engine compartment, and pour new engine oil into the corresponding hole, having first removed the plug. At least 5 liters of fluid must be administered. Then put the plug back in place. Start the engine and wait for the oil pressure warning light on the dashboard to light up. It is important that this indicator goes out on its own after a few minutes. Once again we climb under the car and check the reliability of fastening of all screw elements, if necessary, wipe all surfaces from oil stains. Please note that all this time the engine remains on, starting from point 10. We measure the oil level using a dipstick and add fluid if necessary. At this point, the process of changing the oil in the 16-valve Lada Largus engine has been successfully completed.
Changing engine oil of a different brand
If you decide to change the brand of oil, flush the lubrication system with flushing oil or oil of the brand that will be used. To do this, after draining the old oil, fill in new oil to the bottom mark of the oil dipstick. Start the engine and let it idle for 10 minutes. Drain the oil and only then replace the oil filter. Now you can fill in new oil up to the top mark on the dipstick.
Let us remind you that pay special attention to choosing high-quality motor oil.

DESIGN OF THE FILTER ELEMENT
Almost all oil filters for Largus are non-separable - an element for oil purification is built into the metal housing. The advantage of one-piece cleaning elements is valve protection. The following valves are built into any oil filter:
- bypass;
- anti-drainage
The purpose of the bypass valve is to redirect the flow of oil when it can no longer pass through the cleaning element. This happens when the cleaning element becomes dirty or when the viscosity of the oil increases. The latter happens in cold weather.
The anti-drainage valve is located in the inlet port of the Largus oil filter. When the engine is running, it is always open, but as soon as the engine stops running, the drain valve immediately closes. This prevents oil from draining from the element into the crankcase, and the next time the engine is started, it will immediately begin its work of lubricating the units.
Signs by which you can understand that the lubricant has lost its characteristics and it’s time to change it:
- sediments;
- sediment;
- presence of metal dust;
- weak viscosity or strong thickness;
- color change.
If the lubricant exhibits the above symptoms, then it is definitely time to change it. If you continue to operate the engine with such a lubricant, it can be expensive. A breakdown may occur that may require major repairs.
Attention! Under unfavorable operating conditions of the Largus, the mileage between oil changes may be less than the rated 15 thousand km. Since the manufacturer positions the Largus as a car for summer residents or for transporting goods in the city, difficult operating conditions await it
Because of this, it is necessary to use high-quality elements of the engine lubrication system - oil and oil filter. The quality of engine operation in any conditions will depend on them.

Replacement procedure
If a simple top-up is not enough, then you will need to perform a full oil change in the Largus gearbox. The procedure is not the most complicated, so it can be done on your own. The set of tools is similar. You just need to take a completely new container with lubricating fluid that meets the requirements of the Lada Largus gearbox. In the gearbox of Largus cars of the domestic Lada brand, when replacing the lubricant, oil of a certain marking is used, which meets factory requirements. If we talk about the volume of oil, it is approximately 3 liters.
When all the tools are at your disposal, prepare the car itself for the procedure. For this:
- install the machine over the pit or lift it using a lift;
- prepare a container of sufficient volume to drain all the old transmission fluid;
- get to the filler neck and unscrew its cap (this will allow the oil to drain out of the gearbox faster);
- find the drain hole and carefully unscrew the plug (you can’t do it by hand, use special pullers for oil filler plugs);
- when the lubricating fluid has completely drained into the prepared container, you can return the plugs to their place;
- there is a copper sealing ring on the drain hole, which should be changed after each procedure for updating the oil in the box (it gets pinched and therefore does not perform its functions well in the future);
- Having closed the drain hole, start gradually pouring fresh oil through the filler neck;
- the Largus box holds approximately 3 liters of transmission fluid, but due to residual old oil it can fit a little less;
- pour gradually until viscous liquid begins to flow out of the filler hole, which indicates that the gearbox is correctly filled;
- thoroughly wipe off all the oil with a rag and return the plug to its place;
- start the engine, work the gearshift knob to fully distribute the oil throughout the gearbox system.
Practice shows that changing gear oils in Largus does not require much experience or special knowledge. The procedure is carried out using a minimal set of tools and requires a short amount of time. Keep in mind that the plant recommends changing the lubricating fluid in the gearbox once every 200 thousand kilometers. But you need to build on the operating conditions and current state. 200 thousand kilometers is the period when the lubricating fluid loses its technical and chemical properties.
