Chevrolet Aveo 1.4 liter engine on a compact car, it was present in two versions, first it was the F14D3 with a power of 94 hp, then the upgraded F14D4 developed already 101 hp. These are in-line 4-cylinder 16-valve gasoline aspirated engines with a cast-iron block and a timing belt. The more powerful F14D4 has a variable valve timing system, which not only increased power, but also made the exhaust more environmentally friendly.

It's pretty easy to tell the older F14D3 from the newer F14D4. On the cover of the 94 hp engine, ETEC II is written, on the 101 hp ECOTEC. Basically, our story will be devoted specifically to the F14D4 motor model.

Chevrolet Aveo 1.4 liter engine

The Aveo 1.4 injection engine with a capacity of 101 horsepower is based on a cast-iron cylinder block. The crankshaft is attached using 5 caps, which are not interchangeable, since they are processed together with the cylinder block assembly. In the ignition system, individual ignition coils appeared (each cylinder has its own), an electronic throttle valve, without a mechanical drive. The engine was developed by Opel engineers. But since Opel is owned by General Motors, the development has been actively used on Chevrolet and even Daewoo models.

Chevrolet Aveo 1.4 block head aluminum with two camshafts. On the camshaft pulleys are the actuators of the variable valve timing system (phase shifters). Phase shifters work solely due to oil pressure, which is supplied through the channels in the cylinder head, and the pressure is regulated by a special solenoid valve.

The 16-valve mechanism does not have hydraulic lifters. The thermal gap is regulated by the selection of pushers of different thicknesses. Therefore, if you hear a sound similar to diesel or other rattling, you should know that it is definitely not hydraulic lifters. Most likely, problems began with the normal functioning (due to insufficient oil pressure) of the phase shifters.

Timing device Chevrolet Aveo 1.4 liters

There are a number of important points in the Aveo 1.4 timing drive. Firstly, now the pump is not involved in the belt drive. The coolant pump is rotated by a separate belt, along with the generator. Although on the old version of the F14D3 engine, the pump pulley did not just rotate due to the timing belt, it is also a tensioner for the entire drive. Moreover, now the replacement of the timing belt is required every 150 thousand runs! Timing scheme Aveo 1.4 on the next photo.

Hello dear comrades.

Like most of the fasting here, I decided to replenish the army of reviews about my iron friend.

So, g.v. 2008, gearbox, color - turquoise, wheels - stamping 14, from equipment: power steering, air conditioning, and standard MP3 (it is only native and pleases, because older Chevrolet models, including jeeps, put the same).

I'll start with the cons, because they are always in sight:

1. The instrument panel was made as if chopped with an ax. Later I realized that I like it when you get behind the wheel and you are completely surrounded by the instrument control space. And in Aveo you sit high, like in a mini-jeep, and reach for everything as if in a bus.

2. Eats, infection, gasoline (in the summer with kondeem 11 is stable, taking into account the average speed limit, in winter from 13 to 15, with virtually no Conder).

3. Suspension ... super tough, every time I catch a hole or a seam on the road, I feel my booty, how the racks work out (especially the front ones). And with a slight roughness of the road when driving slowly, a slight shiver is felt - also in the front suspension.

4. Checkpoint (mechanics) ... Once a friend said that she was in Aveo and Lacheti like UAZ. I don’t know, I didn’t drive the Oise, but the gear moves are very large, unlike the Focus or Hyundai.

5. Engine (written by ECO). When shifting gears (ESPECIALLY from 1 to 2), the speed does not drop immediately, and the engine "continues to burn your gasoline" (I read this explanation somewhere).

6. Body. Somehow I had to go to a wedding. So there one moron hit his head on a bet on my car. And do you think there is no decent dent left on the arch of the door???

7. "Thank you" to the Koreans for the extra horse in the 1.4 engine (101 hp).

8. The wiper blades were worn out during the first winter.

9. As soon as the first frost hit, everything that was possible creaked in it. Loops of a back seat, a luggage carrier. The glass in the doors rattled.

Pros:

1. The main advantage of Avochka is, of course, her appearance. When setting also alloy wheels, it looks much more expensive than its cost.

2. Powerful dviglo, turns lightly up to 4-6 thousand revolutions. But I try not to get carried away.

3. The front is very spacious even for tall passengers.

4. Capacious trunk (3 bags of potatoes and an internal mandatory srkab (first aid kits, pumps, umbrellas) fit perfectly there).

5. Favorable price / equipment compared to classmates.

Here it is, in a nutshell.

On his Avochka he made the tour Volgograd - Rostov-on-Don - Volgograd. On the road, the car behaved stably, there were also trips around the region 200 km back and forth.

As they say, you can’t scold your car ... God forbid, with it, but I wanted to speak out and find like-minded people.

Thank you for your attention, comrades!

31.03.2010

I remembered a few details and wanted to continue.

1. By violins. As soon as it got warmer, all the squeaks disappeared, but some small, just tiny cricket appeared in the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe torpedo.

2. I forgot to include the pluses that the engine picks up perfectly at 1.5 thousand revolutions and higher in 2nd gear (straight-type sports). But happiness ends by 4th gear.

3. Did I say that 4 tires fit freely in the trunk?

Looking forward to continuing...

Malfunctions and repair of the Aveo F14D4 engine

The F14D4 (ECOTEC) engine was released in 2008 and is a deeply modernized one (ETEC II), a system for changing the valve timing on both shafts, individual ignition coils, an electronic throttle valve was added, the timing belt and rollers service life increased, from now on the replacement is carried out every 160 thousand km, the EGR system disappeared, from which there were more minuses than pluses, the power increased to 101 hp, which is very good for 1.4!
Now about the cons, we came here for the cons! On many cars with a variable valve timing system, there are certain problems, here it is also not ideal, the solenoid valves of the phase regulator often fail, this manifests itself in the fact that the Aveo engine works like a diesel engine. Repair is carried out by cleaning the valves or replacing them if cleaning does not work.
There are no hydraulic lifters on the F14D4, now you need to adjust the valve clearances by selecting calibrated cups. This procedure is carried out after a run of 100,000 km.
Problems with the thermostat are especially loved by GM, here he also will not let you get bored and ask for replacements within 60-90 thousand km.
No other global problems have been noticed, the rest of the malfunctions are related to a specific car and its operation. For those who do not have enough motor and want more, look away .

Engine tuning Chevrolet Aveo F14D4

Chip tuning Chevrolet Aveo 1.4 101 hp

This motor, due to its small volume, is very poorly adapted for refinement. A conventional chip, if it increases power, will not exceed 110 hp. Sports shafts are not installed on the engine and have not been seen on sale. You can change the exhaust to a 51mm pipe with a 4-2-1 spider, give the cylinder head for porting, put big valves, adjust, the engine will show about 115-120 hp.

Compressor on F14D4

The compression ratio on the F14D4 has increased, compared to the old version of the engine, and for supercharging it needs to be reduced, let's do it according to the collective farm method - put 2 cylinder head gaskets)). We put a compressor with a pressure of 0.5 bar, Bosch 107 nozzles, spider exhaust 4-2-1, online tuning. Your 1.4 will give about 140 hp. and good traction from idle, and this is the level of a modern Opel 1.4 turbo engine.
Do not have illusions about the resource, it will decrease, so that the engine lives happily ever after, you need to reduce the compression ratio by installing a forged piston with grooves, this method entails unnecessary expenses and is applicable for building an Aveo turbo.

Turbine Aveo 1.4

As it was written above, we need a forged piston with holes to lower the coolant, weld a manifold for the turbine, the turbine itself will be TD04L, oil supply to it, intercooler, piping, make custom camshafts with a phase of 260-270, you need to configure online. In the end, with the right approach, your engine will produce more than 180-200 hp, at the same time, financial injections will be almost equal to another Aveo or Lanos, the resource is near zero, and the stability of Valil is a big question. If you want to drive and have 3/4 of the car, consider buying a hot hatchback.

Chevrolet-Aveo-II: about the pros and cons Alex

I bought a Chevrolet-Aveo-II in 2012. Considered different options. The main criterion for choosing was the budget limit - 600 thousand rubles. At the prices of that year, I just fit in - an average of 531 thousand. A car with LTZ mechanics and additional options cost 590 thousand rubles.
Before Aveo, I had VAZs of different models. The last one is Kalina Lux 2010. I do not want to offend the owners of Renault Logan and Sandero, but I immediately dismissed these models as unworthy options. About KIA Rio I can say that it is beautiful on the outside, but in the cabin - just like in Kalina. He drew attention to Solaris and Polo. My wife was delighted with the Opel Corsa (I forgot to mention that I was looking for a car specifically for her, since 2014 I have been driving Kalina and everything suits me). We talked with the manager, and her mood deteriorated sharply because what she wanted cost 100 thousand more than our limit.
Salon in Opel and Chevrolet was almost the same. The wife was upset and chose Aveo. Persuaded her to buy a sedan. The seller tried to cheat by talking about a 6-speed automatic transmission, but I chose the mechanics, because, in my opinion, such bells and whistles cannot be in a budget modification. However, I can not say which of the boxes would be better.
Now let's move on to a specific analysis of the car itself.
We bought a used car with a mileage of 75 thousand km. They changed the oil once a year, and if they traveled a lot, then every 10 thousand km. On the forums, they suggested changing the candles in time, so after driving 60 thousand km, they were updated. At 13 thousand km, the stabilizer struts flew. The car was under warranty and we called the dealer. They answered that they are not now, but when they appear, they will call. So I didn't wait for the call. Took and put the rack with Asters. They work great!
In severe frosts, the sound of a tin bucket filled with nuts appeared. They did not do anything under the guarantee, I had to change the shock absorbers. Got it from Kayaba. I figured out the problem, but they serve only 20 thousand km. One of them leaked in the middle of winter.
Parktronic refused last fall. After checking, it turned out that two sensors had broken. I had to order on Ali and install it myself.
Rest in Gelendzhik. Once we leave the car in the parking lot, we go to a cafe. We return, and under the janitor is a business card with air conditioning repair services. He pulled it out, threw it in the trash, sat down and drove off. The next day I was forced to look for where to repair the air conditioner radiator. Maybe it coincided, or maybe the cunning craftsmen themselves damaged it in order to earn money. I note that before the appearance of the business card, the climate system worked perfectly.
Aveo was bought in the winter. Rubber had to be taken on iron rims, because there was no alternative. Now I face a problem when replacing with a summer kit - it is very difficult to remove them from the hub. My summer ones are cast. They come off easily. By the way, there were no such difficulties with Kalina!
The car is not very good for driving on the highway. In the summer we go to rest to the south - 6,000 km in both directions. At a speed of 120 km / h in fifth gear, the tachometer shows a speed of 4,000. Gasoline consumption is 6.5 liters per 100 km. Therefore, in order to travel far, we decided to look for something like a Ford Focus or KIA Sid. It is a pity that Aveo is not expensive to sell today!
