How to change engine oil accent. Recommendations for changing engine oil in a Hyundai Accent. Where to change the oil in a Hyundai Accent engine

Replacement engine oil- an indispensable component of any TO. Leaving the car at the station, the driver fully relies on the professionalism of the service workers, including the choice of lubricant, but sooner or later the driver himself will have to face such a choice. Consider the manufacturer's recommendations Hyundai Accent.

The best engine oil for Hyundai Accent

Each product in this category has a coding corresponding to certain operating characteristics, for example, 5w-20. To find out which lubricant is right for your Hyundai Accent, you need to know the meaning of this encoding.

The number preceding W characterizes parameters such as cranking and pumpability when operating at low temperatures. The value of the indicator is directly proportional to the minimum engine start temperature, the lower the indicator - the lower the possible start temperature of the motor.

The number following W is an indicator that characterizes the minimum and maximum viscosity of the substance at a normal engine operating temperature of 100 degrees and the minimum viscosity at 150 degrees, which is the maximum allowable indicator of engine operation. When the engine is running at its maximum temperature regime a low viscosity grade of a motor oil will improve fuel economy and increase engine power, but a low viscosity lubricant will coat the surface in a thin layer, which increases the risk of engine damage.

As a rule, manufacturers indicate which engine oil is recommended to be poured into the engine of a particular car. This recommendation can be corrected by taking into account the viscosity at the minimum air temperature. Thus, for the harsh Russian climate, the optimal value is 0W, 5W, 10W. A feature of the Hyundai Accent engine allows the use of high viscosity oil, therefore, it is optimal for this car is 5w-40. Manufacturers recommend the following brands of lubricants:

• Liqui moly;
• Aral;
• Mannol.

How much to fill

An equally important indicator is the amount of lubricant to be poured. Its lack can lead to engine damage, and overflow - to squeezing out oil seals and seals. Also, excess volume increases the level of combustion of product additives in the cylinder, unburned components can reduce the efficiency of the catalyst and particulate filter settling on their surfaces.

As a result, this will affect their service life. Before filling, it is better to consult with an auto shop specialist. You can also find out how much oil is needed for replacement in the car's service book.. The average figures are as follows: when changing the lubricant for a Hyundai Accent, about 4.2-4.3 liters are required, i.e. a four-liter canister is enough, because it is impossible to drain the waste product by 100%.

Replacement steps

Hyundai Accent engine lubricant is replaced in the range of 10-15 thousand kilometers or every six months. For a resident of a metropolis, the period of 8-10 thousand kilometers of run will be optimal.

What tools will be needed

Before changing the oil, check for:

• oil in the required volume (about 4-4.5 l);
• oil filter;
• drain plug;
• keys for 17 and 19;
• torx set.

How to drain

1. Before replacing, it is better to warm up the engine by driving a car or Idling.
2. Drive the car into the pit or raise it on a lift, turn off the engine.
3. Remove the grease filler cap.
4. Install a container for the used product under the drain hole.
5. If available, remove the pan protection and unscrew the drain plug.

How to fill

Oil must be poured carefully, avoiding spillage. To do this, it is better to use a watering can, in case of its absence, use the upper part of an ordinary plastic bottle.

You need to fill in the lubricant in several passes: after you have filled in the required volume, start the engine for 5-7 minutes. Then stop the engine again and check the level. If necessary, carefully add the required volume.

Video "Greasing the lubricant in the Hyundai Accent engine"

This video presents detailed instructions for changing the oil on a Hyundai Accent.

In the manual for the Hyundai Accent car, the manufacturer recommends changing the oil (including the oil filter) after 15,000 km of run or 1 year of operation. With intensive use, in difficult conditions (bad road surface, dust, etc.), the distance should be reduced to 7 - 8,000 km.

Step by step instructions for changing the oil

1. Park the vehicle on a flat, level surface. Apply the parking brake while servicing.
2. Warm up the engine to operating temperature then let it cool down for 10-15 minutes. During this time, the oil will drain into the engine oil pan.
3. Pull out the dipstick and unscrew the filler hole. Waste oil drains much faster if there are through passages for air.
4. Raise the car with a jack, and place a waste container under the drain hole. It is ideal to have an inspection hole at your disposal, but if it is not there, you can completely get by with an ordinary jack and holder racks.
5. Drain the oil after unscrewing the drain bolt. Be careful, the oil may still be hot to the skin.
   
6. Unscrew and change to a new oil filter. Before installation, it must be slightly soaked with fresh oil and lubricated with an o-ring.
   
   
7. We install a new sealing washer on the drain bolt and twist it into place. Sealing washer - disposable, consumable. Do not overtighten the drain bolt, as there is a high chance of stripping the threads.
   
8. Fill with oil according to the dipstick.
9. Warm up the engine and check the level on the dipstick again. Usually after warming up the level drops a little.

What oil to pour

• For cars with a 1.3 cc G4EA engine, semi-synthetic 10W40 is suitable.
• For G4EE engines with a volume of 1.4 cm3 - synthetics 5W30.
• For G4EE 1.5 cm3 - mineral 10W40.
• D4FA 1.5 - synthetics 5W30.
• G4FK and G4FK both engines with a volume of 1.5 are semi-synthetic 10W40.
• G4ED 1.6 - semi-synthetic 10W40.

In any case, oils of different viscosities must not be mixed. If you need to change the oil, please complete replacement with flushing fluid.

Video materials

In the presented video clips, the masters clearly show how to change the oil and components without any problems with their own hands.

To maintain the normal operation of the engine on a Hyundai Accent, also known as TagAZ, it is necessary to periodically change the lubricating fluid. This simple operation is easy to do with your own hands, if you clearly follow the instructions and perform the necessary actions.

Stages of changing the lubricant Hyundai Accent

When changing the oil, it will not be superfluous to inspect all components for smudges, so that if a leak is detected, take measures to eliminate it. The best option for replacement there will be a pit or overpass, for more convenient access to the drain holes.

Oil change instructions will be useful for owners following models Hyundai brands:

• Hyundai Accent (Hyundai Accent Restyling);
• Hyundai Accent Tagaz (Hyundai Accent Tagaz);
• Hyundai Verna (Hyundai Verna);
• Hyundai Excel (Hyundai Excel);
• Hyundai Pony (Hyundai Pony).

Popular engines are petrol with a volume of 1.5 and 1.3 liters, as well as a diesel version with a 1.5 liter engine. There are models with a different displacement, but more often they were sold in other markets.

Waste fluid drain

You need to change the lubricant on a warm, but slightly cooled engine, so there is a little time to remove the protection. To get normal access to the pan, as well as the oil filter.

To unscrew the filter element, it is desirable to have a special puller. If it was not available, you can try to unscrew the filter with improvised means. For these purposes, you can use, for example, an old alternator belt, a regular belt, a bicycle chain, or a simple screwdriver.

unscrewing oil filter with the help of hand tools

Using this method, it will be possible to drain the maximum of the used oil, after which you can proceed to further actions. The main thing is not to forget, everything that we unscrewed needs to be put in place.

Flushing the lubrication system

1. Flushing the engine on a Hyundai Accent car should be carried out only in exceptional cases, which include:
2. The purchase of a used car, when you cannot be sure of the quality, as well as the regularity of the replacement of the lubricant composition.
3. During operation, the service replacement interval was repeatedly exceeded.
4. The operation of the engine with constant frequent overheating, which contributes to coking, as well as other deposits.
5. In cases of switching to another type of oil, for example, from synthetics to semi-synthetics.

Flushing for the Hyundai Accent engine is of several types:

• Five-minute or seven-minute, able to clean even the most difficult deposits. They must be used very carefully, strictly follow the instructions printed on the package. It is recommended to use them only when absolutely necessary. Since there is a high probability of causing premature wear of the sealing glands. And also clog the oil channels with particles of washed off soot.
• Special compounds that are added to the oil several hundred kilometers before the proposed replacement. They are more gentle, but there is also a possibility of clogging of oil channels.
• Flushing oil is the most gentle method of cleaning the engine from the inside. Such a composition is poured after draining the mining, the engine runs for 15-20 minutes, after which the liquid with deposits is drained. The absence of aggressive additives in the flushing composition gently cleans the motor, but is not able to remove strong contaminants.
• The usual oil that you are going to use when changing. This method is not so popular because of its high cost.

Before flushing a Hyundai Accent, you should weigh all the pros and cons. And also understand that it will not work to completely drain the liquid. Part of it will remain in the channels, which will then mix with the new oil.

Installing a filter, filling in new engine fluid

If the Hyundai Accent lubrication system is tight and does not require repair work to eliminate the leak, you can proceed to the bay of fresh oil. In addition to the oil itself, you will need a new Hyundai / Kia drain plug gasket 21513-23001 (2151323001). As well as the original oil filter Hyundai / Kia 26300-35503 (2630035503). If you wish, you can look at analogues on the Internet.

Expendable materials

When everything is ready, go to the bay:

1. Replace the drain plug with a new washer.
2. We twist and put the oil filter in place. Pre-lubricate the sealing rubber ring with fresh oil.
3. Pour new oil into the filler neck.
4. We check the level on the dipstick, it should be between the MIN and MAX marks.
5. We start the engine, let it run for 10-15 seconds, then turn it off.
6. After 5 minutes, check the level with a dipstick, top up if necessary.

There are several opinions about changing the oil filter. Many car owners advise filling it with new oil before installation. However, in the official instruction manual for the Hyundai Accent. And also in the information from global filter manufacturers, it is recommended to simply lubricate the sealing ring.

Change frequency, which oil to fill

According to the manufacturer's instructions, service replacements engine oil are carried out after 15,000 kilometers or at an interval of 1 year. But many motorists consider this interval to be too high, while recommending cutting it in half.

By recommendation automobile concern to fill in the lubrication system of gasoline engines, you must use the original synthetic oil Hyundai Turbo Syn 5W-30 or 5W-40. It is allowed to use Hyundai Super Extra 5W-30 semi-synthetics. For diesel engines used Hyundai Premium DPF Diesel 5W-30.

From the factory, the Hyundai Accent model was most often filled with Shell Helix Ultra 5W-30 synthetic compound. But on the Internet you can often find reviews of people that they have oil filled with other viscosity parameters, for example 5W40. Most likely this is due to the operation of cars in different climatic zones, as well as serviced by different dealers.

When selecting analogues, each has its own preferences for brands of oil manufacturers. Someone uses Korean, someone is looking for cheaper and floods Lukoil. But most trust global brands such as Elf, Shell or Liquid Molly.

Leaks and problems

The more Hyundai Accent mileage becomes, the more problems appear, as in principle in any car. Some motorists are beginning to complain about increased oil consumption. Others continue to operate the car, citing the fact that zhor 1-2 liters from replacement to replacement is normal.

The most frequent problem increased consumption in this model, there are oil scraper caps, or stuck oil scraper rings, but with a high probability these are caps. Therefore, their replacement, as well as the transition from synthetics to semi-synthetics, will solve the increased zhor. Also, in some cases, if there is a problem with the caps, oil can be thrown into the air filter.

Some motorists observe another problem when oil appears in the candle wells or even on the surface of the valve cover. This indicates wear on the sealing rings of the spark plug well.

We order rings by article 2244323001 for subsequent replacement. At the same time, do not forget to order the valve cover gasket 2244126020. Since the cover will need to be dismantled when eliminating this malfunction.

Engine oil must be replaced every 10,000 km.
With a new car, it is necessary to change the oil after the break-in is completed (after 2500 km). When changing the oil, it is imperative to install a new oil filter (ZMZ-4062 engine) or its filter element (all engines). Oil change procedure see subsections 2.3.2, 2.3.2.2 and 2.3.3.3 .

In the crankcase it is recommended to fill in the oil of the same brand as was in the engine. If another brand of oil is poured in, you must first flush the engine lubrication system with oil of the brand that will be filled into the engine. To do this, drain the old oil, fill in new oil 2–4 mm above the “0” mark on the oil level indicator (dipstick). Start the engine and let it idle for about 10 minutes. Then drain the oil, replace the oil filter or its filter element and fill in fresh oil.

coolant must be changed every 2 years or every 60,000 km (whichever comes first). Coolant replacement procedure see subsection 2.4.4. It should be borne in mind that the coolant is poisonous, so you should not suck it in your mouth when transfusing. When working with coolant, it is recommended to wear safety glasses, do not smoke or eat. If liquid comes into contact with exposed skin, wash with soap and water.

Oil in the gearbox must be replaced every 60,000 km. Oil change procedure see subsections 3.3.2 and 3.4.2 . Every 20,000 km, check the oil level in the gearbox and top up if necessary. The oil level in the box crankcase should reach the edge of the filler hole. If the drained oil contains metal particles or is very dirty, flush the box. To do this, pour 0.9 liters of fresh oil into its crankcase. Jack up the rear of the car. Start the engine and, turning on the first gear, let it run for 2-3 minutes. Then drain the oil and refill with fresh oil. When checking the oil level, you need to clean the surface of the breather from dirt and turn its cap several times to remove dirt that has fallen under it.

Oil in crankcase rear axle must be changed every 60,000 km. The oil is changed in the same way as in the gearbox. After 20,000 km of run, you need to check the oil level in the crankcase and top up if necessary. The oil level should reach the edge of the filler hole. When checking the oil level, the breather must be cleaned of dirt in the same way as was done for the gearbox.

Do not use re-drained brake fluid.

brake fluid clutch and brake actuators must be changed once every 2 years, regardless of the vehicle mileage. Clutch and brake drives use brake fluids of domestic production "Rosa", "Rosa-3", "Tom", "Neva" or their foreign counterparts on a non-petroleum basis, the quality level of which is not lower than DOT-3. Use other brands of fluids, especially petroleum-based fluids, prohibited.

Brake fluid is hygroscopic and should not be stored in open containers.

The procedure for replacing brake fluid is as follows:

1. Remove the brake master cylinder reservoir cap.

2. Remove the rubber protective caps from the air release valves on the wheel cylinders and put rubber hoses on the valves, the ends of which are lowered into glass vessels.

3. Turn off valves no more than on one turn and, pressing a brake pedal against the stop, merge a liquid. Close the air release valves as fluid stops flowing from the hoses.

4. Pour out the drained brake fluid from the vessels and put them back in place.

5. Pour fresh fluid into the master cylinder reservoir, unscrew all air release valves one turn and, pressing the brake pedal all the way, fill the brake system. In this case, you must constantly add fluid to the reservoir of the master cylinder. After a clean brake fluid close the valves.

6. Bleed the brake system to remove air from it ( see subsection 6.9).

7. Close the brake master cylinder reservoir with a stopper. Remove the hoses from the air release valves and put on the protective caps.

In the same way, replace the fluid in the clutch hydraulic drive.
