How to replace?

Many people prefer to change transmission fluid at service stations. On the one hand, this is the right decision since the work will be performed by a qualified specialist, but on the other hand, you will have to pay him your hard-earned money. But if you want to save money or are reluctant to part with money, then you can do it on your own; the replacement process after reading our article should not cause you any difficulties.

If you have an automatic transmission

Replacing fluid in an automatic transmission is a little more complicated than in a manual transmission, but it will not cause any particular difficulties even for a beginner.

Which oil should you choose?

Let's say right away that the oil used in the Lada Granta automatic transmission does not need frequent replacements, because its excellent performance properties guarantee the operation of the gearbox throughout the entire service life of the car. This means that on a Lada car with an automatic transmission, fluid replacement is necessary only when repairing the gearbox itself. Reuse of transmission fluid is strictly prohibited! Today there is simply a huge assortment of different high-quality oils on sale that are suitable for Lada Granta automatic transmissions, but the pros recommend Genuine EJ-1 ATF (from JX Nippon Oil and Energy Corporation).

Be sure to remember! All parts of the machine box need to be wiped only with lint-free paper. Even the smallest foreign particles that get inside the box can cause irreparable harm to it, namely, there is a risk of clogging the throttle holes, which in turn will lead to disruption of the entire automatic transmission until it completely fails.

What tools will you need?

  1. key to "ten";
  2. ring key to “nineteen”;
  3. hexagon to “five”;
  4. new automatic transmission oil;
  5. paper, only lint-free;
  6. empty container.

Replacement steps

It is best to carry out fluid replacement work on a special lift, but if not, then a garage will do:

  1. We unscrew the drain plug (in the picture it is number 2) with the key set to “19”.
  2. Then the overflow (number 3 in the picture) using a hexagon at “5”.


Automatic transmission of the Lada Granta car: 1 - pallet; 2 - drain plug; 3 - overflow plug.

  • Drain the liquid into a previously prepared empty container.
  • We put the overflow plug in its original place, and then screw the drain plug, after installing a (preferably new) O-ring on it.
  • Let us remind you that the required volume of transmission oil for the Lada Granta automatic transmission is approximately 1 liter. We take out the dipstick and pour approximately 1 liter of new automatic transmission oil into the hole.
  • We measure the fluid level, it should be between “MIN” and “MAX” on the indicator, if it is less, then add fluid.
  • If you have a manual transmission

    Which oil is preferable?

    Of the domestic oils in the Lada Granta manual transmission, you can use Lukoil TM 4. It is important to know that the viscosity class depends on the region in which the car is operated - 75W-(80, 85, 90), 80W-(85, 90).

    What is necessary

    To replace manual transmission fluid you will need:

    1. key to "seventeen";
    2. manual transmission oil;
    3. funnel;
    4. hose;
    5. capacity, approximately 4 liters;
    6. rags.

    Replacement steps

    1. The car must be driven into the inspection pit, and before that it is advisable to thoroughly warm up the transmission system.
    2. First, you need to thoroughly clean the surface around the transmission drain hole. The Lada Granta gearbox requires approximately 3.1-3.5 liters of fluid; therefore, the container placed under the drain hole should be at least four liters, and maybe a little more.
    3. Using the key set to “17”, unscrew the drain plug. The transmission oil level should be between “MIN” and “MAX”.


    Drain hole location

  • Drain the old oil into a container and screw in the plug.
  • Pour fresh fluid into the box through the hose that must be inserted into the dipstick hole.

  • Filling ZIC fluid into the gearbox

    As you can see, there is nothing complicated and these operations will not take much time, and replacing the transmission fluid yourself will not only save money, but will also save you from waiting in a long line for a car service center.

    General advice for everyone

    • An automatic transmission is more sensitive to dust than any manual transmission. This must be remembered even when changing the oil in the automatic transmission of Lada Grants. All funnels and tubes must be perfectly clean.
    • There is no need to increase the temperature of the box too much. The optimum is 45 degrees, but in general, if we are talking about an “automatic”, you can replace it with a “cold” one. But for greater efficiency, the box is “heated”, and then the “new” oil must also be heated.
    • When measuring the volume of liquid being drained, take into account the temperature - heated liquid expands.

    Material selection

    Let us remind you that a partial replacement requires up to three liters of oil, but in general the crankcase holds 5.1 liters. The “old” material is mixed with the “new”, and there are only two options to choose from:

    • Nissan ATF Matic-S;
    • Genuine EJ-1 ATF.

    Jatco itself uses the second option.

    Articles

    In the Nissan catalog you can find the following designations:

    • 31390 – automatic transmission pan (metal black);
    • Z1394 – external pan plug;
    • Z1394C – pallet plug washer (must be changed!);
    • 31329N – pan tube;
    • 31390A – fastening screw;
    • 31390J – washer for screw;
    • 31397 – gasket for pallet.

    Add “3MX0A” to each number and you will find what you need.

    In this article, we tried to describe in detail the process of measuring and replacing transmission fluid in the manual and automatic transmissions of the Lada Granta. If the information provided was useful to you, please leave your feedback.

    Selection rules

    There is a huge selection of motor oils on the fuel and lubricants market. Oil formulations designed specifically for LADA Granta vehicles are also available for sale. Most of the offered products are valued for their reliable composition.

    To choose the right engine oil for the Lada Granta, you need to understand the importance of the product you are purchasing. Savings and unnecessary waste of money are unacceptable here; everything must be balanced. The characteristics of the composition must be ideally combined with the car. This correct approach will ensure a long and flawless service life of the machine.

    The dipstick is located under the air filter. It’s inconvenient to get it out, you’ll have to get a little creative. I personally take out the dipstick only after I move the air filter housing to the side.

    There is no oil dipstick on this box at all. When replacing it, it is necessary to fill in new oil until the filler hole is full and the excess comes out.

    The only way to check the condition of the oil is by unscrewing the transmission check bolt and trying to squeeze out the oil with a syringe.

    The dipstick is located under the air filter. It is almost impossible to pull it out without dismantling the air filter housing, so the housing is removed and moved to the side.

    The level is checked only “when cold”.

    The oil is filled with Dextron: either 2nd class or 3rd class. The oil dipstick should indicate what type of oil is in the gearbox.

    Possible problems

    On some cars, the oil level dipstick in the gearbox may wear off. This may happen due to its incorrect installation. It wears down on the engine, and quite quickly.

    The dipstick must always be installed strictly parallel to the engine. Therefore, even if you do not have problems with the gearbox, we recommend checking the oil level and the condition of the dipstick itself.

    Conclusion

    Having considered the suitable options, you can decide on the best oil for the Lada Granta automatic transmission. It is better to use a quality product, which does not have to be expensive and original. This can be seen judging by the presence on the market of quite good analogues from the companies Mobil, Castrol, ZIC, ExxonMobil, Lukoil, etc.
