Engine oil in a Renault Duster engine

The procedure for changing the oil in a Renault Duster engine will be considered in engines with a volume of 2,0 and 1,6.

For do-it-yourself replacement, we need a garage with a viewing hole or overpass, as well as lubricant and a filter. What engine oil to use for Renault Duster, we told earlier on our website. Before you buy an oil filter, find out its part numbers.

The oil change is done with the engine off while the oil is at the right temperature, the main thing is that it is hot, it is better to do this immediately after the trip, this applies not only to Renault Duster, but also to other car brands.

We provide you with the catalog number of the oil filter for Renault Duster - 7700 274 ​​177.

The most common replacement oil filter among Duster lovers is MANN-FILTER W75/3. The price of the filter fluctuates around 280 rubles, depending on your region of residence.

To get to the oil filter, we need a puller, but before that we need to disassemble the fuel rail protective element.

To disassemble the protective element of the ramp, we arm ourselves with a 13 head with an extension cord and unscrew two nuts through the protection channels.

When the nuts are unscrewed, then carefully remove them from the protective channels. You then need to move the ramp guard forward slightly from the intake manifold tube studs.

We remove the protection of the engine compartment.

It looks like the protection of the fuel rail on the Renault Duster

For the oil change procedure on the 1.6 engine, the process of removing the fuel rail protection is carried out in a similar way.

The next step in changing the oil is to remove the Duster oil filler cap. Next, you need to clean the protection on the bottom of the machine and around the drain plug and oil change hole, and do not forget to clean the oil pan.

We need to loosen the drain plug, for this we take a tetrahedron by 8.

Before constantly unscrewing the drain plug, replace a container with a volume of at least 6 liters for draining used oil with a 2.0 engine and at least 5 liters with a 1.6 engine.

 

We unscrew the plug to the end and drain the oil from our Renault Duster into a replaced container.

It is worth paying attention to the fact that the oil is hot, be careful changing the oil is a clean process

As a rule, a steel washer is installed under the drain plug. To completely stop an oil pan leak, the washer has a thin layer of rubber for a snug fit.

This is what the cork and washer with a rubber seal looks like.

We inspect the washer for damage to the rubber ring, if there is damage, then the washer should be replaced. In cases where you do not have the original washer, a copper washer with a diameter of at least 18 millimeters will do.

Drain the oil from the Renault Duster for about 10 minutes. Next, we twist and tighten the drain plug on the crankcase, it is worth removing all the drips from the protection of the power unit and other elements.

We arm ourselves with an oil filter puller and loosen it.

We unscrew and disassemble the oil filter from Renault Duster.

It is necessary to clean the place where the filter fits as much as possible from dirt and oil leaks.

Apply a layer of oil to the oil filter O-ring and turn it by hand until it contacts the seating surface. Tighten the oil filter with an extractor another 2/3 of a turn to seal the connection. Then we pour oil into the Renault Duster engine with a volume of 2,0-5,4 liters of engine oil, and pour 1,6 liters of oil into the 4,8 engine. We plugged the filler cap and ran the engine for a minute or two.

You need to make sure that the low oil pressure indicator on the instrument panel is not lit.

Also remember to keep the oil filter and drain free of drips. We turn off the engine and wait a couple of minutes until the oil drains into the oil pan, check the oil level with a dipstick and, if necessary, bring the oil to the level. Tighten the oil filter or drain plug if necessary. Finished oil change in Renault Duster.

There are versions of cars that are equipped with an oil change warning indicator after 15 miles. To turn off such an indicator after changing the oil (if it does not turn off by itself), do the following, turn on the ignition, hold the accelerator pedal for 000 seconds, while holding the accelerator pedal, press the brake pedal three times. After this procedure, the indicator on the device panel should go out.

There are times when we change the oil in a Renault Duster engine before the indicator lights up. In order for the signaling device not to light up when reaching 15 thousand kilometers, it is necessary to initialize the system, in this case the indicator lights up at 15 thousand kilometers, but only for five seconds.
