How to change the oil filter on a Renault Logan yourself

How to change the oil filter on a Renault Logan with your own hands?

A special high-quality filter ensures trouble-free and long-lasting operation of the car’s engine. When the system requires an oil change, it is recommended to also change the filter element. The procedure is not complicated if you strictly follow the technical instructions, which are issued together with the purchase and sale agreement. Many car owners during repairs are faced with such a problem as a tightly tightened filter, and in order to remove it they have to seek help from a service station or purchase a special puller. In this article, we will analyze in detail the process of replacing oil filtration, and also determine what its main need is.

Changing the oil in the Renault Sandero engine

Another brand in demand by Russian buyers is Renault Sandero StepWay 1.6, 8-valve. Accordingly, the question of replacing the lubricant with it is also relevant.

How to unscrew it if it's stuck

I’ll tell you a few ways that will 100% help you unscrew this element, so here we go:

Trite with your hands. Often you just don’t have enough strength, just call a “more powerful” person and everything can work out. I will say this in 80% of cases they unscrew it by hand. YES, and you need to tighten it again with your hands, tightly! IT'S ENOUGH!

Special key. I already wrote about it once, you can, of course, it’s not always at hand, but if you have a friend with a car, he can drive to almost any spare parts store and buy it. I personally even saw it in several supermarkets, the cost is a penny, about 200 - 300 rubles.

Rope and screwdriver (another lever). Sometimes they also use an old alternator or timing belt. What we do is twist a loop around the filter, tighten it with a screwdriver, tightly. And we try to unscrew it. The main thing is that the rope or belt does not slip.

Next come barbaric but effective methods. The most important thing is that they are dirty, that is, you will get dirty in oil anyway, if you are not afraid, then they are for you.

A hammer and a long, strong screwdriver. Actually, this method is used to unscrew most intractable filter elements. Since the walls of the element are soft, they are usually aluminum, or tin, and other soft metals. It breaks through very easily (just like a tin can)

What we do is drive a long and strong screwdriver all the way through, that is, so that it goes in on one side and comes out on the other. And then we unscrew it like a lever. The most important thing is that everything can be done without a special key, and actually using the tools that are always in the garage. The only downside is that your hands are dirty, because some of the oil is always inside.

Hammer and chisel. This is generally the method that they say “ATAS”, there is nothing to explain here, we take a chisel and “fuck” it with a hammer, the most important thing is to hit closer to the bottom, to the place of fastening, and counterclockwise. The case, of course, will be all dented, but the most important thing is to unscrew it.

As you can see, there is nothing complicated, you can do without a special key, just pierce the housing with a screwdriver.

Now we are watching a short video.

And that’s all for me, read our AUTOBLOG.

All Renault Logan and Sandero filters

The automaker recommends changing the fuel filter at least every 30 thousand kilometers. But this is in Europe. In Russia, the fuel quality is worse, so you need to change the Logan and Sandero fuel filter more often and as needed. This will be indicated by jerking of the car when driving at high and low speeds - the fuel filter is clogged.

The choice of filters is now quite large, but auto experts recommend paying attention to the Logan fuel filter under the well-known Mann brand. This is guaranteed German quality. However, fuel filters from Mahle are also not the worst options.

Oil filter Logan

The automaker sets the timing for replacing engine oil (of course, the Logan oil filter must be replaced along with it) depending on the operating conditions of the vehicle. In large cities, where air pollution is higher, it is recommended to change the Logan oil filter after 7-8 thousand km, and in other cases - after 10-15 thousand km.

In order not to run into a fake, it is better to buy a Logan oil filter in specialized brand stores. The best filter, according to experts and car enthusiasts, is his own - Renault brand 7700274177.

Air filter Logan

The roads in Russia are bad and there is a lot of dust on them. Therefore, the cleanliness of the air filter should not be overlooked. Especially for Logan and Sandero cars.

This is explained by the fact that the Logan air filter has slightly enlarged pores of the filter paper. For clean European roads - just right, but on Russian roads the filter becomes clogged with dust faster. This means that it needs to be changed more often.

But this remark is valid only for filters made in Europe. Therefore, it is better to look for a Logan air filter under a Russian brand. It is more “accustomed” to the peculiarities of our roads and serves regularly for 2 years or up to 30 thousand km.

Cabin filter Logan

Cabin filters clean the air entering the cabin through the ventilation or air conditioning systems. Now almost all cars are equipped with such filters, or at least have a base for their installation (like Logan and Sandero).

The Logan cabin filter is an important condition for safe driving. Dust and dirt make it difficult to operate a vehicle and can seriously harm the driver's health. Especially in Russian natural and climatic conditions and on our roads. It is especially bad for plastic parts, which are then very difficult to clean from dirt.

Therefore, you should not strictly adhere to the manufacturer’s recommendations, which advises changing the Logan cabin filter after 30 thousand kilometers. This is for Europe. In Russian conditions, it is advisable to change the Logan cabin filter after 20, or even 15 thousand km.

Replacing Renault Logan engine oil

Let's replace the engine oil in the k7j 1.4 liter engine of the first generation Renault Logan.

At the same time, we will specifically focus on some features of replacement without knowledge of which it is better not to take on this work.

Necessary tools, accessories and spare parts

Engine oil filter puller

To remove the oil filter of the K7j 1.4 liter engine of the first generation Renault Logan, it is convenient to use a three-jaw (three-legged) puller with a wrench.

Three-jaw filter puller

You can use pullers of a different design or simply pierce the filter housing with a thick screwdriver (closer to the end so as not to damage the fitting inside it) and use it as a lever to unscrew the filter.

Key for unscrewing the pan plug (drain)

K7j engine sump drain plug, 9 mm square. If there is no suitable square edge, a wrench is suitable for unscrewing the sump plug of the UAZAM-3317 engine of the Moskvich 2141. As a last resort, you can slightly sharpen another square edge of a suitable diameter.

Motor oil can

The volume of oil poured into the lubrication system of the k7j 1.4 liter engine of the Renault Logan car is 3.3 liters (including the oil filter). Therefore, a 4-liter canister will do. The manufacturer recommends filling this engine with ELF engine oil. Namely ELF Evolution 900 NF 5W40 or ELF Evolution SXR 5W30, 5W40. At a mileage of more than 100,000 km, you can replace the recommended oil with motor oils from other manufacturers with similar parameters.

Plug washer with rubber seal

A steel washer with a rubber seal is installed under the drain plug of the pan. It is recommended to install a new one at every oil change. To avoid this, you can replace it with a copper washer with a diameter of 18 mm.

Container for draining old oil

Volume 4-5 liters.

Funnel for filling oil

Preparatory work

— We drive the car onto a pit (overpass, lift)

If desired, you can change the engine oil on level ground.

— We clean the drain plug of the pan from contamination

We use a rag and a brush.

— Preparing the oil filter

Fill it with engine oil a little more than halfway. Lubricate the rubber o-ring with oil. If during work the oil level in the filter drops a little, add more.

Pour engine oil into the engine oil filter to impregnate the filter element and lubricate the rubber O-ring

The procedure for changing engine oil in the k7j 1.4 l engine of a Renault Logan car

— Unscrew the engine sump drain plug

We use the facet at “9”. When removing the plug, we try not to lose it.

— Drain the engine oil

Drain the oil from the engine for at least 15 minutes. When the main volume has drained, unscrew the oil filler cap and remove the dipstick. After which some additional amount of oil will be drained.

— Remove the old engine oil filter

We clean the oil filter and the surface of the cylinder block next to it from contamination. Place a rag under the filter to collect the oil. Using a puller, unscrew the oil filter counterclockwise. Remove the filter. We clean its mating surface under the filter on the cylinder block (wipe it with a rag).

We unscrew the oil filter of the Renault Logan k7j engine using a three-jaw puller

— Screw in a new plug with a new washer

Tighten the plug with a 9mm socket. The tightening torque of the plug is 3-4 kg.cm.

— Install a new engine oil filter

We install a new filter (its sealing ring must be pre-lubricated with engine oil). Tighten the filter clockwise until it stops by hand.

Then turn the oil filter another 2/3 of a turn. Same with your hands. If your hands slip, wear rubber gloves or place a sheet of sandpaper on the filter and tighten it.

— Fill the engine with new engine oil

To do this, install a funnel in the oil filler neck in the engine valve cover and spread a clean rag around it (in case oil spills past). Fill in engine oil.

It should be taken into account that 500-700 grams of old oil remain in the channels of the lubrication system, so you should not pour the entire canister into the engine at once. First, fill in 2.5 liters. We wait until it drains and check the level with a dipstick. Add another 300-400 grams and again check the level with the dipstick. We ensure that the engine oil level in the pan is slightly below the upper maximum mark on the dipstick.

Engine oil level on the k7j engine dipstick, between the minimum and maximum marks

Then we complete the filling, remove the funnel, and replace the engine oil filler cap.

— Checking the oil pressure in the engine

We start the car engine and let it run for 2-3 minutes. Make sure that the emergency oil pressure lamp in the instrument cluster goes out (oil pressure is normal).

Due to a poor-quality oil filter, the emergency pressure lamp may not go out. In this case, you will have to do all the work of changing the oil and filter again.

That's it, the engine oil in the k7j 1.4 liter engine of the first generation Renault Logan was completely replaced, taking into account all the features.

Notes and additions

The frequency of changing engine oil is once every 15,000 km or once a year. Based on operating experience, it is advisable to reduce this interval to the standard 10,000 km.

Changing the engine oil and filter yourself on a Renault Logan

When you buy a car from a dealership, the last thing you think about is changing the oil. There are people for this. The first ones will remind you about maintenance, and the second ones will do everything. But as always happens, the warranty period ends and the person is faced with the choice of either continuing to be serviced by official dealers or changing the oil himself. This instruction is for those who do not like to overpay and prefer to change the oil themselves.

Do-it-yourself oil change in a Renault Logan engine

1) For Renault Logan engines, the oil must be changed every 10,000 - 15,000 kilometers.

2) It is imperative to change not only the engine oil, but also the oil filter.

3) Article number of the oil filter 77 00 274 ​​177

4) Drain plug O-ring number: 77 00 266 044

5) Don’t forget about the oil filter remover

6) 3.4 liters of oil are needed to completely change.

7) You need a bucket or any other container; old oil from the engine will be drained into it.

You will also need tools for work:

• Key number 10
• The key for unscrewing the drain plug, it is square
• And most importantly the extension cord, it is used for the puller in the oil filter

I would like to draw your attention to the fact that it is best to change the oil when the engine is hot, while observing all health safety measures.

An article on the topic of replacing the air filter in Logan will also be useful before preparing your car for winter.

When everything is prepared, you can start working:

1) The first thing to do is remove the plug from the filler neck. This is necessary to depressurize the entire system. Only after a couple of minutes it is necessary to unscrew the drain plug.

Another advantage of a car of this brand is that when changing the oil it is not necessary to remove the protection, since the necessary hole already exists, and this saves a lot of time. It is at this time that you should take a bucket, otherwise the oil will run on you.

2) when all the oil has drained, you should tighten the plug with a new washer-gasket.

3) Unscrew the oil filter. Be sure to unscrew it counterclockwise and change the filter itself.

4) Next, pour oil into the filter, not forgetting that the rubber band also needs to be lubricated.

5) The next thing we do is screw in the new filter and tighten it well.

6) The last thing that is required is to fill the engine with new oil to the required level.
