We choose which oil filter is best for the VAZ-2114. Selecting an oil filter for VAZ 2114

Which oil filter is better to choose for the VAZ-2114, what to look for when buying and how often to change it? This question is asked by people who want to do quality maintenance and extend the life of their car. Over time, such questions disappear, but some information written and located here may be useful for experienced car enthusiasts.

The correct operation of the engine depends on the condition of its components: pistons, rings, bearings, and so on. The lubrication system allows you to extend their service life by pumping oil to all elements, this is done using an oil pump.

During the interaction of parts with each other, as a result of friction, tiny metal shavings and dust are produced. As a result, which, on the contrary, contributes to the wear of elements. Passing through the filter, all foreign substances are screened out and deposited in it

. In this way, the oil in the car engine lubrication system is cleaned.

Healthy! By passing oil through itself, the VAZ-2114 filter retains about 95 %

foreign particles from the total volume.

What do you need to know when buying a new filter for a VAZ-2114?

Oil filters in bulk

Therefore, if you still have to purchase a filter from an unfamiliar seller, it is recommended to pay attention to the following details:

Poorly packaged goods
, as well as the presence of spelling errors on the packaging, confirm that it is counterfeit;
The rubber seal on the filter must be elastic and the base of the housing must be strong;
The side rubber ring must have specific stripes
;
The thread on the original filter should be smooth and smooth
without any irregularities or torn spots;
The filler holes must not have a burr
;
The junction of the circle with the paper must be glued neatly, without adhesive streaks or stains
.

The original oil filter on the VAZ-2114 is very often counterfeited. Be careful when purchasing!

Healthy! An oil filter can only be truly tested for quality in a special laboratory. Therefore, when choosing, you need to be extremely careful and careful.

A little about the manufacturers

Regardless of which oil filter for the VAZ-2114 is best suited: domestically produced or imported, you need to know the following.

For some reason, products produced by world leaders in this area are somewhat cheaper than in the EU countries.

Maybe this is due to the fact that the products sent to Russia are not of the “highest quality”? The one that could not enter European markets.

One can assume that in this way the manufacturer is trying to maintain the price range for countries with weak economies and low living wages, which, unfortunately, includes the Russian Federation. This is also evidenced by the careless markings on the products, although they are considered “original”.

Oil filter replacement intervals

The filter is always changed along with the oil. Exceptions are rare!

The oil filter is replaced with a new one during each engine oil change. On average it is 10-15,000 kilometers

mileage when using the car under normal conditions. When operating in difficult environments, it is recommended to replace every 5-10,000 kilometers.

The following factors are considered to be a more complex environment for using a vehicle:

Operation in loaded form;
Difficult weather and climatic conditions in which the car is used (high or low ambient temperature, dry or too humid climate);
The car is constantly stuck in traffic jams;
Participation in rally raids, races;
Aggressive driving style.

conclusions

When choosing an oil filter for the VAZ-2114, you need to take its choice extremely seriously.

In today's material we will tell you how to change the oil in a VAZ 2114, how to replace the filter, what oil to choose and how often this procedure needs to be performed. To operate, you will need the oil itself and a MANN oil filter - W 914/2.

Approximate price and article number of the original VAZ 2114 oil filter

The VAZ 2114 uses an original oil filter, the article number of which is 21080101200508. Its price ranges from 190 to 250 rubles.
The automaker does not manufacture filters on its own, but purchases them from other companies. The main supplier is . The original oil filter for the VAZ 2114 is of extremely low quality. It has mostly negative reviews from drivers. There are problems with both the active part of the filter element and the return valve. It does not hold oil inside the consumable. Because of this, the oil pressure sensor often triggers falsely. The low pressure warning light may come on for 4-6 seconds. In this case, the filter can cause oil starvation of the engine.

The automaker has another supplier of oil filters. It is. Direct analogues of the original consumables are available for sale. They are produced under the Salyut brand with catalog number 21081012005010. The cost of such consumables is slightly lower and amounts to 150-170 rubles.

Filters from the supplier ZAO SALYUT-FILTER also have mostly negative reviews. This is due to the fact that the filter paper used is of extremely low quality. During operation, through holes often appear in it. This leads to the free passage of unfiltered oil along with abrasive particles and other debris.

On the VAZ 2114 there are original oil filters with different catalog numbers. These include articles:

2108-01012005-82;
2105-01012005-82;
2108-01012005-00;
2105-01012005-00.

The peculiarity of the original filters is that consumables with index 2105 are slightly longer than products with number 2108. Despite this, they are fully interchangeable and have a similar price. At the same time, all original VAZ filters have a negative attitude from drivers. In most cases, car owners recommend buying third-party consumables, for example, from Mann.

NITTO 4NC-106 (C-222)

A year ago, I sawed the NITTO 4NC-106 oil filter, which had been driven for about 5,000 km on a 1997/11 Nissan Atlas SVN6F23 TD25 engine and Japanese oil Mobil multigrade 10W-30 SG/CD.

– intake holes are large in diameter, chamfered, which cannot be said about Sacura: PHOTO 12

The filter element is laid evenly and evenly and does not deform during operation. Filling with a sealing compound, fastening the filter element with flanges and a perforated sleeve, is done with high quality and accuracy - there are no smudges, pieces or excess, it is glued very tightly: PHOTO 13
PHOTO 14
Perforated sleeve. Fastened with a vertical seam, and not twisted, like, for example, Global or Sacura: PHOTO 15

Check valve orange, soft and elastic: PHOTO 16

This filter model (C-222) does not have a bypass valve: PHOTO 17

This is what Nissan intended for filters installed on a number of non-turbocharged diesel engines of the TD series and some others.
The function of the bypass valve is performed by one of the valves located in the oil filter holder on the engine block: filter holder lubrication diagram
And for turbocharged versions of these engines, the oil filter has a bypass valve in its design, in this case the filter will have the index C-226 (has slightly different dimensions). “Perhaps that black hole in photo 17, after all, is this a bypass valve?” - you ask :))) I will answer that no, this hole was the result of when I pierced the filter with a rough long file, because it did not I wanted to get away with it :)))

The filter cartridge inside the housing securely supports this: PHOTO 18

I installed different filters on this machine. according to Micro, there were the most of them. We came across them with minor differences, for example one of them, the color of the check valve rubber was orange or black - probably different quality. There were “yellow filter”, Union, Sacura. I sawed them, I liked NITTO better. Currently NITTO is also installed: PHOTO 21

NITTO 4NC-106 of excellent quality! I didn’t have any complaints regarding any of the criteria.

Ways to distinguish a fake from an original filter

Despite the low quality of the original oil filter, installing a fake can lead to serious consequences and a significant reduction in the life of the power plant. The reason for this is the production of counterfeit consumables without complying with any norms and standards. Therefore, installing counterfeit products is extremely undesirable. A counterfeit can be identified by a number of characteristic features.

First of all, the packaging must be visually inspected. The original is made using rich colors, which the counterfeit cannot boast of. At the same time, counterfeit products may contain spelling, typographical and other errors.

You can identify a fake by looking at the o-ring. The original rubber has sufficient elasticity. The ring sits securely in the seat. In a fake filter, the seal is made of rubber, which quickly hardens. In some cases, the ring does not match the size of the seat, so it falls out of it freely.

You can identify a fake by the quality of the body paint. The original coating has no flaws and has a uniform color. In counterfeit products, when examining the case, shagreen is often noticeable. If you carefully examine the quality of paint application, you may find traces of dust. In counterfeit goods you can also see differences in shade and other defects. The inscriptions and fakes are less readable.

To complete the identification of a fake, it is recommended to look inside the filter. The original has no visible signs of corrosion or protruding sealant. When examining a fake, carelessness in the manufacture of the consumable is often revealed.

Original and fake Mann filter - the main differences

Let me immediately note that all the signs described below may differ depending on the equipment on which the counterfeit product is produced. But in any case, we compare with a reference filter that was purchased from official representatives. Therefore, you can at least see what the original Mann filter should look like.

1. Upper part of the filter. The O-ring on the original is slightly thinner than on the fake. The fake has two embossed lines that are not on the original.

2. Painting quality. The Mann fake is painted much worse than the original. There is a major step. The color is significantly different, the quality of the inscriptions is very poor. There is no Made in Germany inscription under the MANN FILTER logo.

3. O-ring. On the original filter, the o-ring fits very tightly in the groove. Therefore, to pull it out, you need to apply a good force. On a fake, the O-ring is easy to pull out of the groove. The original Mann has three orange stripes, but the fake does not.

4. What's inside a fake Mann filter? If all the elements of the oil filter are of good quality in the original, then the fake will look something like this:

You may notice that the filter element is glued with some kind of low-quality sealant.

Oil filters for VAZ-2114

The quality of the engine of any car depends on the complex technical condition of its components: bearings, pistons, rings, etc. The task of the lubrication system in a car algorithm is to reduce the load on all moving components, which significantly increases their service life.

IMPORTANT! Oil starvation of the engine is a serious problem - the result, at best, will be inverted liners, and at worst, the engine will need to be replaced.

As engine joints interact, fine dust and chips appear, which over time turns the lubricating fluid into an abrasive, which only increases wear. The oil filter, included in the lubricating fluid circulation system, filters out all small particles and retains them. For the system to operate correctly, this element must retain no less than 95% of the total number of foreign elements supplied to the oil during vehicle operation.

Gravitational

The operating principle of these filters is different. Popularly they are called “septic tanks”. The operation of these filters is based on the force of attraction - gravity. Due to the greater density of debris contained in the oil, they precipitate in a special container. The car owner needs to clean this container from time to time. During cleaning, some of the contaminated oil will be lost. It’s difficult to call such filters practical, but the cleaning efficiency is okay. In general, gravity cleaning oil elements are very rare in modern cars. They have been used before.

Oil filter replacement intervals

According to the technical recommendations of the manufacturer, the oil filter is replaced along with changing the oil itself, that is, every 10-15 thousand km, provided that the car is used in favorable conditions. If the vehicle is operated in aggressive conditions, the oil must be changed every 5-10 thousand km.

Replacing the oil filter

Aggressive conditions include:

a specific environment, manifested in high (low) humidity, constant low or extremely high temperatures and other climate features;
operation of a vehicle under conditions of critical weight loads;
frequent operation of the engine in low gears (traffic jams, slow driving on poor-quality road surfaces);
aggressive driving style in general or operating the car in a manner not intended by its design: rally, hunting, racing.

FRAM PH6811

This rating is completed by a model from the manufacturer Sogefi Filtration, which makes filters under the Fram brand. The products of this brand are used in the production of cars from such large concerns: Mazda, Audi, Citroen, Land Rover, Ford. The FRAM PH6811 model deserves special attention - this proprietary filter is perfectly adapted to high temperatures. It can easily withstand +160 degrees and is not at all afraid of high oil pressure. The filter is simply excellent, but if you believe the reviews of car owners, the product’s performance is low.

One of the disadvantages of the device is the small area of the filtration element. All the advantages of the filter are immediately nullified by this drawback.

Choosing which oil filter is better for the VAZ-2114

The ideal place to buy an oil filter is a certified VAZ service center, but given the realities of our country, it is best to buy such things from friends, although they can deceive.

Oil filters for VAZ 2114

In order not to purchase a frankly low-quality product, you should pay attention to the following nuances of the product:

the quality of the packaging and the presence of spelling, grammatical or semantic errors on the packaging, if any - the filter is a fake of the worst quality;
the presence of burrs on the filler holes - the original filter does not have them;
the presence of “VAZ stripes” on the side ring;
elasticity of the sealing gum – it should be high;
the product body must be durable and free from defects;
the paper must be glued carefully, and there must be no streaks or other traces of glue;
the thread must be of high quality and not have any visible defects.

We recommend: Car tinting: types and requirements
Fulfilling all the conditions cannot with 100% probability protect you from buying a fake, but at least it will be of high quality.

About the manufacturers

A domestic motorist choosing a filter for his VAZ 2114 has two options: buy a domestic “original” or a foreign analogue.

It is important to take into account that Russian filters have three weaknesses:

bad filter element;
weak bypass valve;
the price is higher than that of foreign analogues (190 rubles).

MANN oil filter

If a motorist decides to choose a foreign-made filter (which is cheaper due to the RRP policy), he should pay attention to:

Mann W914/2 – price 170 rub. A high-quality German product that does not cause any complaints from motorists. It won’t let you down even after 10 thousand km. aggressive exploitation.
Sakura TC-25011K – price 150 rub. A Japanese filter that surpasses the domestic one in terms of its characteristics, but is not worth saving 20 rubles on Mann. The main weakness is the violation of the integrity of the filter elements.
FRAM PH5660 – price 230 rub. It has an increased filtration area and general reliability, but is too often counterfeited by domestic craftsmen, so it is extremely difficult to find the original.

WORTH KNOWING! If a motorist is really concerned about the question of whether a low or high oil filter is better for the VAZ 2114, there is only one answer - it’s not significant. The main thing is that it meets the technical characteristics of the car, namely the bypass valve opens to 1.2 Bar, and the filter itself is suitable in size. The original filters of VAZ cars were long until model 2108, after which a shorter version began to be used.

Good non-original filters

Since original oil filters have extremely low quality and poor performance characteristics, car owners resort to buying analogues. There are a lot of good specimens among them. The best alternatives to branded consumables are presented in the table below.

How to change the oil filter on a VAZ 2114?

Now that the car enthusiast understands which oil filter is best for the VAZ 2114, or more precisely how to choose it, all that remains is to figure out how to change it.

To do this you will need a number of tools:

key to 17;
flat-head screwdriver (special key, if available);
rubber gloves and rags to avoid chemical burns;
a container into which the old lubricating fluid will be drained.

Special wrench for removing the oil filter

The algorithm for performing the procedure itself is as follows:

You warm up the car, to do this, leave it idling until the temperature reaches 80 degrees; to speed up this process, you can “turn on the gas.”
Place a container to drain the oil, put on gloves and place rags nearby. The liquid and the filter itself will be hot, which means safety precautions must be followed.
Unscrew the old oil filter. You can try to do this by hand, but if the filter “sticks” due to violation of operating conditions, you will have to use a special wrench.

Working with a special key

ADVICE! If you don’t have a key and you can’t unscrew the filter by hand, you can use a screwdriver - just pierce the filter housing with it and use it as a lever.

Check for the presence of a seal on the filter; if it is not there, it is stuck to the body - it must be carefully removed.
Clean the filter mounting area from dirt and other elements that can get into the oil.
Fill the new filter halfway with oil and wait 10 minutes until the filter element is saturated, then treat the seal with oil and screw in the new filter.
Start the car and let it idle for 5 minutes, then check the oil pressure gauge and that there are no leaks around the filter.

Changing the oil

Typically, the lubricant change procedure begins with draining the old fluid. An inspection hole or overpass is best suited for this procedure. Having gained full access to the bottom of the car, this replacement will be much easier.

But before starting work, you need to warm up the machine, which will greatly simplify draining the viscous liquid, the fluidity of which is significantly improved by heating.

After this, you can begin to dismantle the plug on the drain hole. But before this, it is worth preparing a container for the waste substance in advance.

Tools

Despite the fact that changing the oil in a VAZ 2114 engine is a fairly simple procedure and does not require professional skills, it is still worth preparing for it in advance.

To do this, you will need a number of tools available to every motorist, which are also necessary to replace the pressure sensor:

First of all, buy a sufficient amount of motor lubricant. Typically these are containers with a volume of 5 liters or more;
Rags;
Lubricant filter;
17mm wrench. For convenience, it is best to have both a socket and a socket version. This can make DIY changing procedures much easier. You should choose a high-quality tool, since the drain plugs are usually tightly tightened and considerable effort will be required to remove them;
A container of sufficient volume to drain the waste substance. Usually a 5-liter canister is enough for this type of work. But to avoid inconvenience when draining, the neck of the tank must be of sufficient diameter;
Funnel;
Oil filter removal wrench.

After preparing all the tools, you can start working.

Step-by-step instruction

The procedure for changing the lubricant yourself consists of several steps described below in the instructions:

Using a 17 wrench, the drain plug in the tank is removed. In some cases, a regular wheel wrench may be suitable for this purpose. You must be careful when removing the cover, because if it has not been opened for a long time and is difficult to remove, then its edges can be torn off. This will lead to an increase in the price of maintenance costs;
After the plug has given way and unscrewed 60 percent of the entire thread, you need to prepare a canister in advance into which the waste liquid will be drained. Also, do not put your hands under the lid, as the substance will still be hot and can burn the skin;
Carefully remove the plug and wait for the draining to finish. It is worth waiting at least 10 minutes;
Next, the filter is removed. It is usually located on the passenger side (see photo on the right). To dismantle it, additional tools are usually not required, but if difficulties arise, it is best to use a special key. To better know the location of this element, you can see the photo of the engine compartment structure. The images will also help to dismantle and replace the pressure sensor;
After removing the old filter, you can begin installing the new one. To do this, you need to pour 200 grams of new lubricant into it, and you also need to lubricate the rubber gasket with it. Then you can put on a new filter. To secure it, 5-6 turns are enough. At the end, you need to screw the drain pan plug back on;
Now you can start pouring new lubricant into the engine. For this, the neck on the engine is used, it is located on the valve box cover itself. To avoid overflow, it is best to use a wide funnel.

Do not completely pour in the entire required volume. For starters, 3 liters will be enough. After waiting for some time, you should check the fill level. It should be located between the “min” and “max” values. Now you can add everything else to the maximum allowable volume mark.

After the work has been done, you should clean the engine compartment from drops using a rag and you can start the car.

Purpose of the oil filter

During the interaction of parts with each other, as a result of friction, tiny metal shavings and dust are produced. As a result, the oil turns into an abrasive, which, on the contrary, contributes to wear of the elements. Passing through the filter, all foreign substances are screened out and deposited in it . In this way, the oil in the car engine lubrication system is cleaned.

Healthy! By passing oil through itself, the VAZ-2114 filter retains about 95% of foreign particles from the total volume.

What do you need to know when buying a new filter for a VAZ-2114?

Oil filters in bulk

It is recommended to buy any parts for a car only in trusted stores that do not have negative reviews. Recently, cases of counterfeit parts, the quality of which leaves much to be desired, have become more frequent.

Therefore, if you still have to purchase a filter from an unfamiliar seller, it is recommended to pay attention to the following details:

Poorly packaged goods , as well as the presence of spelling errors on the packaging, confirm that it is counterfeit;
The rubber seal on the filter must be elastic and the base of the housing must be strong;
The side rubber ring must have specific stripes ;
The thread on the original filter should be smooth and smooth without any irregularities or torn spots;
The filler holes must not have a burr ;
The junction of the circle with the paper must be glued neatly, without adhesive streaks or stains .

The original oil filter on the VAZ-2114 is very often counterfeited. Be careful when purchasing!

Healthy! An oil filter can only be truly tested for quality in a special laboratory. Therefore, when choosing, you need to be extremely careful and careful.

A little about the manufacturers

One of the most well-proven filters is MANN

Regardless of which oil filter for the VAZ-2114 is best suited: domestically produced or imported, you need to know the following.

For some reason, products produced by world leaders in this area are somewhat cheaper than in the EU countries.

Maybe this is due to the fact that the products sent to Russia are not of the “highest quality”? The one that could not enter European markets.

We recommend: Used cars: how to buy a really good car

One can assume that in this way the manufacturer is trying to maintain the price range for countries with weak economies and low living wages, which, unfortunately, includes the Russian Federation. This is also evidenced by the careless markings on the products, although they are considered “original”.

Signs of a clogged filter

The main issue when replacing the oil filter on a VAZ 2114 is the frequency of this process. It is recommended to perform the procedure every year , and with intensive use - every 10-15 thousand kilometers.

However, when assessing the need for replacement, two main factors are taken into account - the individual use of the vehicle and the condition of the lubricant. Regarding the first aspect, there are factors that affect oil and filter wear:

duration and frequency of trips, engine idling;
environmental conditions, daily and annual temperature fluctuations;
the quality and surface of the roads, the total mileage of the car and the degree of wear of its components.

To determine the condition of the oil filter, regular preventive checks of the lubricating fluid are performed. In addition to measuring its level, the quality of the lubricant is also assessed. Changed color, burnt odor, sediment or foreign matter are all indicators of poor quality or past the expiration date.

The manifestation of such factors increases the load on the oil filter. Many car owners consider engine malfunctions, extraneous noises and oil starvation to be signs of the need to replace it.

However, experts emphasize that these aspects already indicate wear and tear on internal mechanisms. In this situation, replacing the filter and oil is usually no longer enough; a full diagnosis and repair of components by specialists is required.

When choosing an oil filter for the VAZ 2114, they are guided by general recommendations:

the article number of this part is 2105-1012005; analogues should be purchased in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions;
Among the recommended manufacturers of filter elements are MANN, Knecht, MAHLE;
When purchasing, they check for quality certificates and compliance with state standards.

Purpose and device

Stable and long-term operation of the engine is ensured by lubrication of its rubbing parts: such as main and connecting rod bearings of the crankshaft, timing parts, piston rings and others. This task is performed by the engine lubrication system, which, using a pump, supplies lubricant to all its parts:

During engine operation, even lubricated parts in contact with each other (the oil film does not cope) gradually wear out
Therefore, microscopic particles of chips ranging in size from a few to tens of micrometers begin to get into the oil.
And as a result, over time, oil gradually turns from a good lubricant into an abrasive, leading to increased wear of parts.
To solve the problem, an oil filter for the VAZ 2115 is installed in the engine lubrication system, which filters contaminant particles from the oil
The design of modern elements allows you to retain up to 95% of particles with sizes ranging from 25-45 micrometers
Additionally, it traps carbon particles and many other contaminants.
Another useful function is to ensure oil retention inside the line, as well as in the engine channels after stopping it
This function makes starting the engine safer; in the first moments, the parts no longer spin dry, they are supplied with lubricant from the filter and from the channels

A little history

Oil filters began to be mass-produced and installed on cars only in the 20s of the last century, when it was noticed that the introduction of such a component into the lubrication system sharply increases the service life of the oil (immediately 10-15 times) and the engine (almost 3 times). So:

In engines without the use of these elements, the oil was changed every 700-800 kilometers.
Compared to modern ten to twenty thousand kilometers, this is minuscule!
However, right up until the mid-forties, incomplete flow filters were used; only part of the oil passed through them, so the cleaning, of course, was not entirely of high quality
And with the advent of full-line filters that purify all oil passing through the lubrication system, it has become possible to increase the service life of the oil to today’s values

Device

Sectional view of oil filter

Now we will tell you about the design of the most common modern mechanical oil filters, which are installed on most cars and other vehicles today. Oil filters for VAZ 21154 consist of the following components:

Cylindrical body
The bottom cover, in which there are inlet and outlet holes (if it is non-separable, as in our example, its cover is connected to the body using rolling)
A filter element (the so-called “curtain”) made of paper, or cardboard, or felt, possibly other porous materials using special impregnation
Bypass valve (to prevent the filter from being torn apart by lubricant pressure)
Shut-off valve (prevents lubricant from draining from the filter after stopping the engine)
Anti-drain valve
Pressure spring, see photo above

Now let's look at all the elements in more detail:

The cover contains a number of holes arranged in a circle, through which lubricant is supplied.
Lubricant enters the gap between the body and the paper curtain
Seeps through the curtain
Then, already cleaned, it comes out through the central hole, also located in the lid.
The central hole has a thread to connect it to a fitting on the engine block
As a rule, the body is made of steel, and therefore has good strength, because the filter operates under pressure within 2-16 atmospheres
The curtain - also known as the filter element - is the main part
It is made from paper or cardboard of a special grade, which is then additionally impregnated with special compounds
The surface of the curtain is compressed into an “accordion” and still twisted, a multi-rayed star is obtained - thus, the area of the element increases many times with a very slight increase in volume
The curtain itself is enclosed in metal rings, which is why it has the shape of a cylinder and does not fall apart
The bypass valve is a conventional spring valve, which is located in the upper or lower part of the body
It is necessary to prevent “oil starvation” when the lubricant viscosity is high (when starting the engine in winter) or when the curtain is excessively dirty
This valve opens when a certain threshold pressure is exceeded and drains oil into the engine, bypassing the filter element.
The need for such a valve is due to the fact that it is much better to lubricate engine parts with unrefined oil for a short time than to leave it completely without lubrication for a minute.
The anti-bleed valve (shut-off valve) is made in the form of a simple rubber ring that closes the inlet holes located in the lid
It is necessary to prevent oil from leaking out of the filter and oil system after stopping the engine.
The anti-drain valve is a “service” valve; it is needed to prevent oil from leaking from the housing (through the outlet, central hole) when replacing
From my own experience, I note that not all filters are equipped with such a valve.

Exploitation

There are no difficulties in the operating instructions, especially if we talk about oil filters for VAZ 211540, which are non-separable. However, there are some features that you need to consider:

First, use only the filter recommended by the manufacturer.
You must install only those filters on your car that were recommended by its manufacturer.
The whole point is that it is designed for a certain pressure in the system, has its own specific throughput, plus the fineness of the fraction filtration and other parameters
If you use a filter that is the wrong thread and size, this can easily lead to unexpected motor failure.
Secondly, strictly observe the frequency of filter replacement
Any car manufacturer indicates how often it needs to be changed; as a rule, such a replacement is performed along with an oil change, after 10-20 thousand kilometers.
However, if the car is operated in difficult conditions, or with the use of poor quality fuel, with frequent starts and stops of the engine, it should be changed much more often - its price is not high, but it will extend the life of the engine quite significantly
Third, proper filter replacement is very important
The oil filter is easily screwed to the engine onto a threaded fitting, so there are usually no difficulties when installing and removing it
It is better to unscrew it and then tighten it with a special tool
When tightening, you need to apply some force, which cannot be done by hand - use a special wrench to press it well, but it is also not recommended to pinch it, you can tear off the fitting or break the thread
Before installing a new filter, you need to wipe its O-ring with oil to improve the tightness and tightness of the fit.
In addition, fill the housing through the central hole with clean motor oil to a third of the volume so that the engine does not rotate dry when starting
In addition, the fitting should be cleaned

We recommend: Idle speed fluctuates after cleaning the throttle body

How to remove an air lock with your own hands:

Often, after changing the oil, air pockets occur in the system, and therefore the oil pressure cannot return to normal.
The plug can be easily removed: you just need to slightly loosen the pressure on the filter and turn the engine crankshaft with the starter until lubricant appears from under it.
After this, you need to tighten the filter and the oil pressure will return to normal.
It is important to note that in engines that use filters that do not have bypass valves (these valves are located in the engine), then it is necessary to inspect it immediately after replacement
And if its body is swollen or has deformations that tell us about increased lubricant pressure, we will need to check the condition of the pressure-reducing valves built into the motor housing

If you change filters in a timely manner, and use high-quality gasoline and good motor oil, the oil filter for the VAZ 2115 will provide an increased service life to your engine.

A special key for unscrewing.
Replacing the filter in a VAZ 2114 is performed when the oil is changed, so you need to prepare the following tools and materials:

container for draining waste liquid;
a special unscrewing wrench or flat-head screwdriver;
key to 17;
clean rags;
latex gloves.

The prepared tools should be placed nearby so that they are always at hand.

Steps

Replacing the oil filter is usually done while the engine oil is being drained. The sequence of actions consists of the following steps:

Before replacing the oil filter, the used oil should be drained from the engine.
A container should be placed under the place where the filter is replaced, as some of the working fluid may leak out of it.
Replacement is carried out on a hot engine, so care should be taken to avoid burns, as this part may be hot.
Novice drivers can determine the location of the oil filter in a VAZ 2114 car using the instructions. You can try to unscrew it by hand. If this does not work, then you should use a special key.

Unscrewing with a special key
If you don't have a key, you can use a flat-head screwdriver. With its help, the body is pierced, and then, using a screwdriver as a lever, the product is unscrewed.

Unscrewing with a screwdriver
You should pay attention to the presence of a rubber seal; if it is not there, it could have stuck to the place where the filter stood. It must be carefully removed.
The installation site must be wiped with a clean cloth to prevent dirt from entering when screwing.
Next, a new filter is taken. Fill it halfway with fresh oil; it is better to pour it gradually in several batches so that it is well absorbed. This will prevent the occurrence of an air lock in the machine’s lubrication system during startup.
Then you should lubricate the rubber seal on the new filter with oil and install it in place. You must tighten it carefully so as not to strip the thread.
After completing the oil change, you need to start the engine and let it run for a few minutes. After this procedure, it is important to check for leaks under the oil filter. If they are present, the part should be tightened further.

By following these instructions, even a novice driver can change the oil filter.

Kirill Mironov
I don't like the original. It got clogged up very quickly.

Nikita Lebed
The original was sweating oil along the joint. I installed an analogue one and the problem went away.

Ilya Gorky
Both the original and analogues do not reach the level of foreign cars. I'm still looking for a good filter.

When choosing an oil filter for the VAZ-2114, you need to take its choice extremely seriously.

Yes, lately the filters have become somewhat half-defective, or of poor quality, well, I really buy them from the market, I should try to buy them in a specialized store.

I highly recommend not buying filters where the arrows immediately turn. For example, where is it written that it was made by one company for the order of another company whose office is located in a third country. It is better to buy an expensive filter from a reliable store.
