It is not at all necessary to visit a service station to carry out scheduled maintenance of a car in the form of changing engine oil along with an oil filter and a disposable sealing washer on the drain plug.
Renault Corporation recommends that the first oil and related consumables change after 15,000 km. An exception may be the operation in difficult conditions. These include the dustiness of the route, the lack of asphalt pavement, heavy traffic, frequent stops and engine starts. Thus, the recommendation for intermediate maintenance is reduced to 8-10 thousand km. However, some dealers provide a free oil change service after 3000 km. They call this service “Zero Maintenance”.
What oil to pour
However, many car owners, in order to save money or when they simply did not find such a company, purchase another oil with a viscosity class of 5W40.
Often, dealers are advised to fill in oil with a viscosity of 5W30. Much depends on your region of operation of the car.
Step-by-step instruction
- Warm up the engine to operating temperature and then let it cool for 5-7 minutes. The oil drains better and faster if it is not cold. Hotter can burn you, so it's better to let the motor stand for a while.
- Open filler neck cylinder block (where we wake up to fill in the oil) and pull out the dipstick. If you give through access to oxygen, the liquid will flow out faster.
- We jack up the car and put it on stands. A necessary step for easy access to the drain plug. You can also use viewing hole or overpass.
- We unscrew the drain plug with a key. Be aware that used oil is hot, take precautions to avoid skin burns.
- Drain the waste into a prepared container. Do not drain mining directly to the ground!
- Unscrew the oil filter. If the filter is tightly clamped, a special removable key for the filter may be required.
- We put new filter after lubricating its o-ring with oil, and pouring a little oil right into the middle so that it absorbs it.
- We twist the drain plug after making sure that the washer located on its thread is intact. If necessary, it must be replaced (sealing washer).
- We lower the car from the racks and fill the oil in empty engine guided by the probe.
- After the filled oil wakes up to correspond to the middle of the dipstick between the MIN and MAX marks, we expect 3-5 minutes. After we warm up the engine for about 5 minutes, and again measure the level. As a rule, after the first warm-up, the level drops and we add as much as we need.
According to the manufacturer's recommendations, changing engine oil in Renault Captur must be carried out every scheduled maintenance or 15,000 km of run. If you service your car at a dealer, then I think you can’t have any questions about changing the oil. But if you decide to serve yourself and save money, this article will be useful for you. Read below about which engine oil to choose for Renault Kaptur and how to change it.
When to change engine oil
As we wrote above, the plant recommends changing engine oil every 15,000 km. That is, every scheduled maintenance, the dealer changes the oil and filter. However, the reality is that by 15,000 the oil is already losing its basic properties in modern conditions operation. Therefore, it is often possible to hear recommendations from minders on changing the oil after 8-10 thousand kilometers. Personally, I also adhere to this opinion, it is better to change the oil more often, thereby prolonging the operation of the engine than saving.

When buying an oil filter, do not confuse filters for a 1.6 and 2.0 liter engine - they are different.
Oil change instructions
To replace, you will need an oil filter wrench, an oil drain container and 20 minutes of free time.
We unscrew the filler neck, then we substitute a container under the drain plug of the pan to drain the old oil. If the protection interferes, it must be unscrewed.
Then, when the oil has drained completely, remove the old gasket from the drain neck, put on a new one and screw the plug into place.
Now fill the oil with about 3 -3.2 liters and let it drain into the pan. We check the level with the probe - it should be between the minimum and maximum (Min - Max on the probe). If necessary, add oil to the correct level.
About the presentation of the European Renault Captur before the appearance in showrooms of Renault Kaptur for Russian market three long years have passed, which the fans of the brand spent in anxious and validol expectation. What will they come up with? What will change? How much will they ask? And it was only in 2016 that Captur in all its glory (its exterior is really interesting, really) was shown to the public. And the public liked it. Well, what did she get?
If you speak in in general terms- something like a Duster, only prettier. Unlike the European Captur, our Captur received other power units– simple, atmospheric, reliable. In short, those that we love, looking contemptuously at downsizing 1.2 and 1.4 with a turbine. There are only two of them, with a volume of 1.6 liters and 2 liters. But with them they offer three different boxes gears: "mechanics", automatic transmission and variator.
The fact that you can hardly expect something super complicated or expensive to operate from Captur is also evidenced by the fact that both boxes and units have long been known to our customers, and most importantly - service stations and even already garage uncles Vasya. There is nothing fundamentally new in this crossover, except that the design in the good sense of the word is striking after the traditionally sad appearance of the previous ones. cheap cars alliance.
By the way, how do you pronounce and write the name Kaptur in Cyrillic? Both Kaptur and Kaptur write. We will say Kaptur - as the French say. It’s good that we don’t have to deal with the translation of the European name Captur into Cyrillic - it’s not far to get to the place where you need to “wet the terrorists”.
Of course, now it is not necessary to talk about weak or strengths design, resource units and individual parts, corrosion resistance of the body - the car is new, and it takes years to accumulate statistics. Therefore, for the time being, we will talk about planned maintenance and the possibility of performing some work on our own. After all, if admirers, for example, Dusters or Logans, sometimes like to dig deeper into their cars themselves, then it is likely that the capturists, out of economy or natural curiosity, will decide to put their hands on them.
Seriously speaking, it is hardly worth doing it on new car, because TO Capture is not the most expensive even from an authorized dealer (we will see this now), and a guarantee is such a thing, it never hurts. The question arises: why then write about this car? At least in order for any owner to have a rough idea of what the masters in the repair zone are doing, and how laborious it all is. Useful for understanding pricing and estimating the number of standard hours spent by a car service. So let's start with the motors.
Engine
As I said, Capture is offered with two motors. The first is H4M-HR16DE with a volume of 1.6 liters, its power is 114 liters. With. This motor was developed by Nissan engineers and is installed on many alliance cars from Lada Vesta to Nissan Qashqai. Aluminum cylinder block, timing drive - chain. He was not noticed in a strong "crime", although the former 500,000 kilometers without a capital, as happened on the Logans, he is unlikely to be able to do.
Engine
However, in our test car is a 2-liter F4R - the representative of the "old guard". Many will remember that this motor was on both the Duster and the second Megan. But in fact, it has been produced since 1993, periodically modernizing. IN different versions it has some differences that do not affect its basic design. Therefore, for the most part, engine parts different years releases are interchangeable, and the power of the F4R varies from 135 to 143 hp. With.
So far, the owners of Capturs have not complained about these motors, but if we recall their history, then small malfunctions are enough here. There are failures of ignition coils, a phase regulator, leakage rear oil seal crankshaft (but it's on long runs, closer to 150 thousand kilometers). And here are the floating idling they don’t even consider it a malfunction - it has such a feature. And at the same time, this unit will always reach the house, and there is no reason to complain about the resource, up to 300 thousand it departs for sure, or even more. But in order for the engine to live up to such a mileage, it must be serviced. Let's start with an oil change.
We need oil (the dealer offers Elf - 3,800 rubles), new gasket drain plug (160 rubles) and filter (500 rubles). To replace, you will have to find a square for the cork and remove the pan protection (it is already in the database) - without this, it will not be possible to carefully drain the oil. Despite the fact that there is a hole for the cork in it, the distance from the cork to the protection is almost ten centimeters, so the old oil will certainly partially flow into the protection. Yes, and just getting close to the cork is inconvenient.
Although… Oil filter costs even worse. Positioning it so that it was as painful as possible to unscrew it is the “good” Renault tradition. And here it is better to use a puller in the form of a cup, do not crawl with anything else. For the same reason, it was not possible to photograph the filter, but you will find it right away - it stands in front, between the internal combustion engine and the radiator. For an oil change at the dealer, you will have to pay about 1,000 rubles.
The original air filter costs 700 rubles (suitable for K9K, M5M, L 8M, H5A engines). Well, replacing it is not difficult: open two latches, pull out the old one and put in a new one. And we save 440 rubles on the wages of the master, although a reservation is needed here: when replacing air filter at the dealer and at the “correct” service station, it is supposed to clean the air ducts from dust, which gradually penetrates even through a serviceable filter.
It is not very convenient to unscrew the candles: first you need to remove the coil, and for this you have to unscrew the bolt of its fastening. Here it is easier to act with the head - the collector will not allow the key to work. But by unscrewing the bolt and removing the connector, you can pull out the coil and unscrew the candle - everything is standard here. original candles(article 224018651R) cost 128 rubles apiece, and skillful hands help save 660 rubles.
We have not yet had a chance to change the timing belt for 2-liter Captures, but we can announce the price. A replacement kit (belt and two rollers) costs 3,520 rubles, work - 7,480. The same is the case with the service belt: no one has come to change it yet. By the way, there is only one belt, but together with two rollers (articles 117207944R, 117507271R and 82009478), you will have to pay almost 4,800 rubles for it. Changing it is very dreary, the dealer asks 1,320 rubles for work.
Transmission
As already mentioned, Captur has three boxes to choose from: “mechanics”, hydromechanical automatic transmission and X-TRONIC CVT. The latter is offered only with 1.6 liter engines, and it is interesting in itself: it uses a two-stage planetary gear. However, we will not talk about the "mechanics" and the variator - we have an automatic transmission, which is supposed to be a 2-liter engine.
The DP8 assault rifle is a very controversial thing. First, it's strange to see on a new car four-speed box. Somewhere in Stuttgart, this would be a great laugh right now (or maybe they are sitting and laughing right now). This box is also familiar to us, and for a little longer than we would like. It is unlikely that you will have to wait for special dynamics from a car with DP8, and, most likely, configurations with 1.6-liter engines are equipped with CVTs precisely because Captur will drive very sadly with an archaic “automatic” and a weak engine.
In general, the DP8 can travel 150 thousand kilometers without repair, but this will require some effort. Firstly, do not drive in frost on an unheated box (it is fraught with failure of the valve body valves), and secondly, change the oil (actually, transmission fluid, but for simplicity, let's just call it oil, especially since that's what it is). In the maintenance regulations, however, there is not a word about changing the oil in the automatic transmission. Well, we are already used to it and we know that all this is the machinations of marketers.
Renault Captur transmission
"Automatic" DP8
Oil needs to be changed every 60 thousand, and even the “officials” understand this. Dealer offers to pour synthetic oil Renault Matic D 3. Oil change partial replacement, you will need four liters (for a total of 1,730 rubles). Almost 4,000 will be asked for work. And it’s better not to save on this procedure, because repairing the box can be very expensive.
At the same time, with the same frequency of 60 thousand kilometers, you need to change the oil in rear gear. This work costs 1,400 rubles, and the oil there is only 385 rubles.
The entire transmission is the same as the Duster (we are now looking all-wheel drive vehicle), so problems are likely to arise similar. From an immoderate passion for conquering off-road, the rear crosspiece may fail (although this is an exception, not the rule - cardan gear reliable here). Since not a single Captur has yet come to repair the transmission, it makes no sense to talk about anything else. And it is unlikely to be: everything is simple, strong and tested on previous models.
Chassis and brakes
Like some other crossovers, rear suspension Capture can be multi-link in the 4x4 version and a regular beam in the monodrive version. What can break here, and how much will it cost?
It is unlikely that the owner of Captur will have to repair often undercarriage. You can, of course, go into the forest and try to uproot stumps with levers, but we will not even consider such cases. Imagine that the operation will be the most common.

Most weakness- bushings and stabilizer struts. The stabilizer strut will cost 935 rubles, the bushing - 180. Replacing one rack will cost 660 rubles, but the bushings will cost almost 2,000. Shock absorbers usually last longer, and they don’t cost too much: 2,000 rear and 2,400 front, replacement the rear will cost 2,640 rubles, the front - 3,740.

breakup bolts rear control arms usually do not turn sour, you do not have to cut them off. But it will be necessary to turn them every time when replacing shock absorbers, struts or bushings of stabilizers, because the installation of toe and camber angles is done immediately on all wheels (plus another 2,000 rubles).
Brake mechanisms there are discs in the front, drums in the back (who scolded Vesta for this?). You will have to pay 1,950 rubles for the original front pads. If necessary, they will also be replaced for one and a half thousand, but in fact you can do it yourself. How, however, to change brake discs(The disk costs 4,050 rubles, the cost of working in the service is 2,200 rubles).
Changing the engine oil is mandatory procedure which must be carried out every time at the next maintenance. No replacement car motor simply will not be able to develop the full resource declared by the manufacturer. After all, during the operation of the engine, the oil gradually loses its original properties and is no longer able to lubricate all the rubbing parts inside with the same efficiency.
Before carrying out the procedure, it is imperative that you familiarize yourself with the factory requirements and the replacement steps.
You will also need to pick up oil in Kaptur, taking into account all the recommendations. It should be noted that not only the general ICE resource, but also the performance of the machine as a whole.
If used too thick oil the pump will not be able to effectively pump the lubricant in the technological channels, which guarantees accelerated wear rubbing parts. Accordingly, replacing with a more liquid one will lead to a loss of pressure. Therefore, during scheduled maintenance it is important to adhere to the requirements of the factory.
How do you know which oil to fill?
For the Kaptur crossover, engine oil is selected strictly according to factory requirements. All information about the types of fluids used can be found in the relevant documents or in the official instruction manual.
Before replacing the owner of the crossover, it is enough to look at the factory book. In the relevant section there is a table that lists the oils used with the name and technical characteristics.
In the absence of a special book, you can contact an authorized dealer who will prompt and recommend branded products. You can also view all the information on the manufacturer's website. The plant systematically updates the electronic section, which contains the main statements about the correct maintenance of manufactured vehicles.
Factory oil in Kaptur
When replacing, many owners do not know which oil to use. The plant for the Renault Kaptur crossover with engines from 0.9 to 2.0 liters provides for ELF EVOLUTION. This company is licensed and has been cooperating with Renault for over 10 years.
The manufacturer recommends ELF lubricants, as well as any other parts that are necessary for proper maintenance car. Viscosity parameters for this oil make up 5W40. The lubricant is suitable for the entire line of Renault Kaptur crossovers, including older versions with versions gasoline engines 1.6 and 2.0 liters.
This oil is known for its resistance to elevated temperatures. Also, the lubricating fluid provides not only effective engine lubricant, but also cleaning of all channels from soot and dirt. Thanks to the use of ELF EVOLUTION oil, you can ensure maximum durability and practicality for the engine.
General Benefits of Elf Oil:
- The minimum temperature limit for operation is from -20.
- Resistant to overheating and prolonged heating.
- Retains structure for a long time.
- Cleans the engine of carbon deposits and other dirt inside.
- Facilitates cold start in winter.
In addition to the 5W40 viscosity for Renault Kaptur, oils with 0W40 parameters are allowed. The selection of oil according to viscosity parameters is carried out taking into account temperature environment. For example, for winter it is better to use 0W40. After all, because of low temperatures the natural viscosity of the material is significantly reduced. In turn, the use of more liquid oil contributes to the preservation required parameters lubricants.
Carrying out an engine oil change
A comprehensive oil change for Kaptur is carried out at a special station, where everything is available necessary equipment and a lift. For the procedure, you will need not only oil, but also a filter.
As a rule, with the replacement of fluids, new ones are installed. Supplies in the form of gaskets that are needed for mounting filters. It is better to buy all parts and oils from trusted dealers or from official manufacturer. There are several main stages in the complex replacement of oils in the engine:
- Acquisition of all necessary materials.
- Preparing the vehicle for service.
- Draining the old oil and dismantling the filters.
- Flushing the engine with special means.
- Installation of new filter elements.
- Refueling the engine with oil.
- Checking the performance of all ICE mechanisms.
It is important to fill the oil to the extreme mark on the dipstick, as excess fluid can lead to carbon deposits on the valves. Indeed, with excessive filling, lubricant can penetrate into other channels. Accordingly, the car will smoke, while the spark plugs will deteriorate, and additional problems with a motor. Therefore, when changing the oil, strict vehicle maintenance requirements must be observed.
In the absence of the necessary skills in terms of maintenance, it is best to contact specialists at the appropriate stations.
After replacement, it is important to control the oil level throughout the entire period of operation until the next MOT.
Expert opinion in terms of oil selection
The choice of oil can only be made taking into account factory requirements. However, in the absence of recommended products, oils of other brands and manufacturers may be used. In this case, the main selection criterion is viscosity and class.
When using certified materials for scheduled maintenance and following general factory recommendations, the motor can last up to 300,000 km without forced intervention or urgent repairs.
According to experts, the use Oils Elf is the most optimal, as in this case the car owner fully complies with the requirements of the plant. It should be noted that these oils are in the middle price category in the domestic market. Therefore, when buying a crossover owner does not experience significant financial problems.
In the domestic space, some motorists use Motul 5W40 or 0W40 oils. Based on the reviews, the operation of the engine and other units does not change.
During maintenance, it is important to consider the presence warranty period for the car itself. When the machine is under warranty, any third party intervention in the service will be classified as a breach of contract. Therefore, in order to avoid difficulties with servicing in the official service in the future, it is important to always take into account the listed conditions.
Replacement in a car engine is considered important operation, which must be performed every time a new maintenance is performed. No relubrication motor vehicle engine simply will not be able to produce the entire resource approved by the manufacturer. Indeed, during the operation of the motor, the lubricant loses its original qualities over time and is no longer able to lubricate all the rubbing components inside at the same speed.
First of all, you must definitely familiarize yourself with the factory requirements and the stages of replacement, and then proceed to the procedure itself.
During the replacement procedure, some car owners are not aware of what kind of oil is poured into Renault Kaptur from the factory. A Renault Kaptur car that came off the assembly line with engines from 0.9 to 2.0 liters. comes with evolution. This licensed company has been cooperating with the Renault concern for ten years.
When is a replacement needed?
A lot of questions arise about how long it takes to change the oil in the engine. The operating instructions indicate that it is necessary to change the lubricant every 15,000 kilometers. But it's no secret that most car owners find this period unnecessary and change the fluid much more often - every 8000 - 10000 km. run.
In addition, often car services are advised to perform a new maintenance at the end of the initial 3000 kilometers, when the break-in comes to an end. As part of Maintenance the SUV is subjected to diagnostic work, and all filters are also replaced. Many provide it without payment, while others charge a fee (replacement lubricating fluid and filters with a car check will come out at about a cost starting from 5700 and stopping at around 9400 rubles, based on the region). However, attendance at zero MOT is voluntary participation. The initial scheduled service occurs at a mileage of 15,000 kilometers.
Which oil to choose
For the Kaptur SUV, the car oil is selected taking into account technical requirements. All information about the types of auto fluids used can be found in the appropriate papers or in the official application guide.
Before changing the oil, it is enough for the owner of Kaptur to scroll through the factory book. In a suitable section, there is a list that indicates the lubricants used with names and technical parameters.
In the absence of a special book, you can go to an official dealer who will remind you and recommend branded products. In addition, you can find all the information on the manufacturer's website. The company is gradually updating the necessary section, which contains information about the correct maintenance of the vehicles produced.
One of the most recommended and popular engine oil options is ELF Evolution 900SXR 5W30. The lubricant made on an artificial basis and complies with ACEA A5 / B5 and Renault RN0700 standards. Total recommends this lubricant for Renault car Kaptur with 1.6 and 2.0 engines that are in service in various conditions and where such a level of parameters is needed. It has excellent anti-wear properties, provides engine protection in particularly difficult driving conditions, such as sports or off-road driving, cold engine starts, frequent hard accelerations and stops. The special cleaning additives in ELF Evolution 900 SXR 5W30 eliminate the formation of deposits, and the corrosion resistance allows use with extended drain intervals. Many car owners recommend pouring ELF SRX 5w30 into winter time year and 5w40 in the summer.
How much to pour
IN service conditions the engine is completely cleaned of engine oil fragments, mud residues, metal chips, and so on. In a similar way, it turns out to completely empty a special tank, into which new grease is then poured. At home, you have to limit yourself to an incomplete replacement of engine oil, in which it will not be possible to completely clean the engine. As a working method, professionals advise their proven method - an incomplete replacement in a couple of steps. It takes 3 - 4 procedures, and the components of the motor will become free of dirt residues, and new lubricant can be poured in in the recommended volume.
The Renault Kaptur unit can hold approximately 5 liters of lubricant. First you need to fill in no more than 4.5 liters of lubricant. If it feels like there is not enough fluid in the engine, then you can add a little.
The procedure for changing the oil in Renault Kaptur
In the Renault Kaptur engine, it is carried out according to the following algorithm:
At the end of the procedure, when the filled level is located between the MIN and MAX marks on the dipstick, you need to wait another 3-5 minutes. At the end, we warm up the engine for about 5 minutes and measure the level again. Usually, as a result of the first warm-up, the level drops, you need to add required amount oils.
