Maintenance in compliance with the work schedule established by the automaker is the key to long-term trouble-free service of your car. Many of us completely trust this work to a car service. But a trip to the service station is always a waste of both time and money. Meanwhile, many car maintenance operations are technically simple and do not require great physical strength. To perform most routine maintenance work, you do not need to have the specialty of a car mechanic. You will be amazed at how much time you save if you do these jobs yourself. But you will be even more amazed by the fact that the cost of some simple service operations can significantly exceed the cost of replacement parts.

The frequency of maintenance for the Daewoo Gentra is taken by the manufacturer as a multiple of 15,000 km, except for the “zero maintenance” carried out at a run of 3,000 km. At the same time, the cost of the set of works prescribed by the regulations for the replacement Supplies and checking systems, components and assemblies of the car can reach 4000 and more rubles.

Also, many service stations often strongly “recommend” work that is not provided for by the regulations or provided for in other car runs. Therefore, regardless of whether you are going to carry out maintenance yourself or go to a service station, we recommend that you analyze the cost of work and consumables, carefully study the maintenance regulations and familiarize yourself with the procedure for carrying out all the operations included in it. This will help you avoid unnecessary expenses.

With a car run of more than 150 thousand km, the operations of the maintenance schedule should be carried out at the intervals indicated in the table.

If the vehicle is operated in very dusty, low temperature environment, is used for towing a trailer, frequent trips at low speeds or short distances, it may be necessary to change the engine oil and oil filter more frequently.

When operating the vehicle in very dusty conditions, the replacement air filter element must be replaced more often.

Gentra is a novelty from our friends from the UZ-Daewoo factory.

Gentra is a mixture of sedan and hatchback of the best-selling Chevrolet Lacetti, or rather the back of the sedan, and the front is not much redesigned, but still very similar to the hatch, headlights ptf and heads, as well as front bumper not many others. One of the few that boasts an automatic transmission at a low price and good basic equipment. Here, the windows are all electric, air conditioning, as well as 2 airbags and the price of such a car is 399 thousand, and the maximum speed on the machine is 549 thousand, which is also not too much for a new car.

Gentra engine install only 1.5 liters with 107 l / s. The engine was redesigned, received a timing chain drive, but the gasket valve cover it also sweats and it is better to replace it with a gasket from Deu Leganza. The crankcase is suitable from the Lacetti. The consumption of 95th gasoline is too big, especially with a gun, in the city 12-14 liters, on the highway 7-9, with the mechanics a little better, but not much, this disease has migrated from the Lacetti.

Gearboxes 5-speed manual and 4-speed automatic transmission.
There are no questions about the boxes, the clutch will have to be replaced at 120 thousand mileage, the Automatic will last 200 thousand mileage, though if you change the oil for a hundred kilometers.

The Gentra is equipped with a Power Steering Booster, followed by a period of warranty service it’s better to look, snotty seals and a knock in the rail are not uncommon, but they are eliminated under warranty, steering tips cover 40 thousand km.

Daewoo Gentra disc brakes, both front and rear, in the minimum configuration there is no ABS. The pads serve for 30-40 thousand mileage, and when replacing it is better to lubricate the guides so that they do not wedge, the wheel bearings will last 80-120 thousand mileage, and the rear ones are changed as an assembly with the hub.

Salon Gentra completely transferred from the Lacetti, in connection with this, seat covers and floor mats in the cabin and trunk, as well as door deflectors 1 in 1 with the Lacetti. It is better to immediately glue the interior of the car with Shumkov, so as not to irritate the roar of the engine at high and medium speeds, and, well, to improve the overall acoustic comfort. Since when traveling to Daewoo Gentra, the sensations are such that there is no Shumkov at all.

With electrics, questions arise on new cars, but they are all eliminated under warranty. Gentra does not Can tires therefore, you can install simple signaling type. But it is better to install in third-party services with a license, since the crooked workers of the official service install additional. equipment without electrical skills. It is better to immediately replace the bulbs in the headlights with Osram ALLseason, H4 base.

Daewoo Gentra- This compact car, in a sedan body, which has been produced in Uzbekistan since 2013. This car implemented in Russian Federation and other CIS countries. A little earlier, under this brand, a smaller car was sold in South Korea, known to others as Chevrolet Aveo first family.

In 2013, the production of Daewoo sedan Gentra. On automotive market Russia, the Gentra car competes not only with domestic auto industry, but also with some foreign brands. All .

Car history

For the first time they started talking about the Daewoo Gentra car in 2005. In total, there are two generations of the machine, the first of which was produced from 2005 to 2011. However, time does not stand still, so 2013 allowed the design team in Uzbekistan to show everyone the 2nd family of cars.

Mixed feelings arise when viewing this vehicle. The debut issue completely copied Chevrolet Karlos and Chevrolet Aveo. A design team from Uzbekistan has just changed the nameplate on the radiator grille and cap luggage compartment. In all other respects, these machines are very difficult to distinguish, even if you stand a couple of meters from them.

Daewoo Gentra 2005

For a considerable period of production from the moment the Daewoo Gentra debuted, the car was sold in many countries under various names. A company from South Korea GM Daewoo. The design component is attributed to Italian masters. When the question arose about the place of assembly of vehicles, it was decided to carry out production in those countries where it was financially profitable.

As a result, the assembly was carried out in countries such as Vietnam, Colombia, Russia, Ukraine and others. What was the outcome? In the end, the car, which many knew as the Chevrolet Lacetti, was registered in Uzbekistan, so now it has the name Daewoo Gentra. Since an article about the Daewoo Gentra is impossible without reference to the Chevrolet Lacetti, some interesting facts from the history of this car can be cited.

There was a time when for 4 years the car was used in the famous Top Gear program as an inexpensive sedan for the races of popular personalities. In addition, the sedan became the basis for the assembly of a racing car, which successfully performed in the world championship of tuned cars.

Exterior

To put it bluntly, the appearance of the Daewoo Gentra sedan is pretty standard, as for budget cars. What you should pay attention to is the nose of the car. The developers managed to embody in the front part a completely unique idea, with the help of which, the novelty car series Daewoo will be able to stand out from classic cars of his class.

An impressive bumper adorns the headlights, in the form of a drop, and below them are well-harmonized fog lights. A brand new hood appeared with stamping on both edges, quietly flowing into the front pillars of the car, which were quite heavily littered back.

Although many argue that the Uzbek specialists simply took the Lacetti and replaced the nameplate, in reality this is not entirely true. They tried to change the appearance of the front area of ​​the sedan. To do this, they decided to install hatchback headlights, connecting them with a narrow grille, and draw a new bumper, which received rectangular foglights.

Appearance turned out quite nice. We have to admit that such a bumper with the upper elements of the front harmonizes in the same way as a Brioni jacket with Adidas track pants. In any case, Uzbek designers can be praised for trying to change something. Appearance of the car - Lacetti with some changes.

The problem isn't that Chevrolet's looks were bad. The very moment of full repetition various models and "assembling" them in one car is very alarming and does not at all cause aesthetic satisfaction. One thing is clear - the chance that it is appearance that will be the decisive criterion when acquiring this sedan, is very small.

Although it is not very critical when buying an inexpensive vehicle. In reality, the future owner of an inexpensive car is not concerned about the sophisticated original exterior, but about its reliability, technical component and more or less decent appearance. But in the Russian car market there are already inexpensive cars of some auto companies from Europe, for example, and others.

Niche rivalry inexpensive cars every year become stronger and stronger. The question is not whether Daewoo company come up with your own original sedan exterior or not, the question is when it will happen. After all, the company's management does not want to lose its customers, whom Gentra has won over the years.

Looking at it from the side, it’s impossible to say anything special, the car looks like a simple, standard, inexpensive sedan that is devoid of any luxuries. Only slightly change the position of the moldings that are installed on the car doors. Although the appearance looks very simple, nothing bad can be said about it either. The sedan's roof looks semi-circular, and flows into a relatively small luggage compartment.

The side has thick body-coloured door moldings, beefy wheel arches and a large windshield. Daewoo Gentra 2013 also has rear-view mirrors bigger size than the Lacetti. Doors close differently.

If on the previous model there was a tinny sound during the closing of the door, then here it is a little deaf, and therefore much more pleasant. It will not be superfluous to note that due to the installation of thick door seals, it is necessary to close the doors with a good effort.

As for the stern of the Daewoo Gentra sedan, it was completely copied from its predecessor Lacetti and it is difficult to find any refinement here. There are all the same rear brake lights that we are all used to seeing on Chevrolet Lacetti. The car Daewoo Gentra has a clearance of a rather modest 140 millimeters.

Interior

After entering the Daewoo Gentra sedan salon, it is immediately noticeable that everything here is also done without luxury, but quite at the appropriate level. All keys and knobs are installed conveniently and do not require additional effort, so that they can be used. The quality of finishes and other materials has become quite good, and even pleasant.

Confuse unless, to be honest, cheap control keys. In expensive modifications of the sedan, different inserts significantly make the interior more interesting. The driver's seat at first glance seems small, but this slip covers more quantity its various settings.

The driver is presented with a four-spoke steering wheel, the rim of which looks thin, so it is not very comfortable to hold it in your hands. Dashboard is also not innovative, and has a simple and nice design- all information is read without much difficulty, which will not allow you to get confused in it.

The speedometer has a maximum value of 220 km / h, and is installed in the middle of the instrument panel. On the left, in a round frame, there is a tachometer, and on the right, also in a circle, the rest of the sensors. The buttons for operating the power windows have been conveniently installed in the armrest on the driver's side of the door.

The rear sofa is not so huge, however, it gives passengers enough free space, which will allow them to move around without much difficulty. long trips on Gentra. Due to the low-mounted rear sofa, there is enough space for the legs and they do not rest against the backs of the front seats, and tall people can also feel comfortable.

The luggage compartment has 405 liters of free space, which, if necessary, can be increased if the rear seats are folded down - you get 1225 liters. In general, if you look at the photo of the interior of the new Gentra, it is slightly superior to its competitors.

Speaking of the Chevrolet Lacetti, there aren't many changes, but that's good news, the Lacetti interior was good. Thanks to mahogany inserts in top-end versions, the interior looks expensive and stylish. I was pleasantly surprised by the panel installed in front, which has a soft plastic lining. This was not the case in any budget class C model.

The negative is the presence of plastic buttons and switches. The same steering wheel turned out to be very thin and does not have a thickening at the grip points. These shortcomings are slightly smoothed out by the “board” of instruments, which turned out to be simple but elegant. In general, there are not so many changes in the cabin and they mainly affect the center console. The fabric used in the interior upholstery was chosen with good quality.

Based on the Daewoo Gentra reviews, the model became the first budget car lately, in which it was easy and quick to find comfortable fit. You won’t find any trump cards here, but the designers provided not only for the longitudinal adjustment of the driver’s seat, but also for its height adjustment.

What's more, the design team has established a two-level setting that allows you to adjust the front and back side of the cushion. Don't forget to adjust the lumbar support. Even in basic version, the steering wheel can be adjusted in height, and in a more top-end version even in reach.

However, you should not console yourself, because even if you achieve a comfortable fit, at the same time there will hardly be good visibility. This is partly due to the too wide A-pillars and the side exterior mirrors, which have serious "blind" zones.

The Daewoo Gentra car is a good option in terms of price / quality ratio. The model stands out quite fresh appearance, good equipment and reasonable price.

Unfortunately, it cannot be said that there is too much free space in the back row. In the event that tall passengers are sitting in front, in the back row free space there is not much left, but for the vast majority of passengers, it should be enough. In more expensive trim levels For Daewoo owners Gentra 2017 has provided a comfortable center armrest that locks horizontally and does not fall on the pillow, as often happens.

Folded rear sofa to increase luggage space

Most drivers will be pleased with the presence of all sorts of niches, pockets and other things. most large capacity is the glove box, which turned out to be really roomy. He received a removable partition, lighting and cooling. As mentioned above, the top version has an armrest, under which there is also a small compartment.

To the left of the steering wheel, you can also find a small box. Under the console, installed in the center, you can put your smartphone without being afraid that it will be scratched, since the bottom is made of fabric. For those sitting in front and behind, two cup holders were provided.

Among other things, there is a compartment at the end of the passenger seat, as well as pockets on the backs of the front seats and door cards. It's nice that even the rear doors got an extra pocket.

I would like to say that already in the standard version, the new Gentra received good equipment. instrument panel, still looks ascetic and has not received on-board computer. However, there are no problems with reading information, and the air conditioner performs all its functions, cooling and warming up the interior when necessary.

Among the new features in the Gentra is a 6-speaker audio system available in the top 2 versions. The music system is average in terms of sound quality and supports CDs and MP3 discs; however, the AUX input does not receive a USB port. The top equipment boasts music system control buttons placed on the steering wheel.

The comfort of the interior Daewoo car Gentra include the following:

• The presence of an air conditioner;
• Electric drive adjustment of the side mirrors;
• Function of heating of lateral mirrors;
• Adjusting the driver's seat height;
• The climate system delivers air to the rear passengers;
• The presence of a hook for nets in the luggage compartment and a light bulb for illuminating the trunk;
• heating function rear window with timer;
• The ability to remotely open the gas tank hatch from the car;
• Ability to remotely open the luggage compartment lid from the car;
• Windshield heating function;
• A single ignition key for locks and doors.

Specifications

power unit

Speaking about the technical component of the Daewoo Gentra sedan, an engine was installed here, with a volume of 1.5 liters and 16 valves, which is capable of developing 107 horsepower and 141 Nm of torque. A similar power unit was equipped chain drive Timing.

The advantages of the engine, with a volume of 1.5 liters, include good traction at low and medium speeds. Thanks to this, it is possible to move quite comfortably in the city, boldly overtake and rebuild. There are times when you don't have to downshift, which is not bad in itself, since the gearbox here is not the best.

1.5 liter engine

When the car enters the track, it is not easy for the power unit, since there is no sixth gear in the gearbox. As a result, while driving speed mode 100 km/h, crankshaft rotates at a speed of 3,000 rpm, and if you accelerate to 120, the value rises to 4,000.

On top of that, because of this, the consumption of gasoline increases and the noise inside the car increases. These include the strange decision not to use sound insulation for the wheel arches, as well as the whistle of the wind when driving on high speed, so the ride is not something pleasant.

Transmission

The operation of the motor is synchronized with the base five-speed manual transmission, or a six-speed automatic transmission. On the mechanics, the sedan reaches the first hundred in 11.9 seconds, and the top speed is 180 km / h. The machine does not lose much in the struggle to reach the first hundred kilometers, but loses in top speed- 163 km / h.

Interestingly, this manual gearbox was previously installed on. Based on this, it is clear that spare parts for the gearbox can be bought from Chevrolet, which greatly simplifies the problems. Among the advantages of the box is its simple and reliable design.

mechanical box gear

However, judging by the reviews, the gearbox on the “mechanics” has a big minus - fuzzy gear shifting. Gentra's competitors should worry, because she has 2 boxes to choose from at once. For example, on the Daewoo Gentra automatic, the car functions quite well, if you pay attention to the reviews of the owners.

Chassis

Both behind and in front an independent is installed, spring suspension. McPherson struts are used, and a multi-link system is at the back. Based on the reviews of the Daewoo Gentra, everyone talks about the suspension as “devouring”, which easily “swallows” almost all the bumps on the road. It's very hard to "break" it.

Sure, it looks a bit stiff, but only when the vehicle is empty. If at least two passengers are already sitting behind, everything changes in the other direction. However, one should not forget about one point that with an increase in weight, the performance of the brake system is significantly reduced, which are not the best here.

With the help of a well-adjusted suspension, Gentra is confident on the roadway. During turns, the car rolls in acceptable limits, but a good mark crosses out too little understeer and slow response to the steering wheel.

Steering and braking system

Uzbek car received hydraulic booster the steering wheel, which, when driving more than 120 km / h, causes uncertainty in control. The front wheels have ventilated discs. braking devices, A rear wheels received standard drum brakes.

Safety

In order to ensure safe driving Daewoo cars Gentra, a pair of airbags is provided for the driver and the passenger sitting next to him, even in basic modification, however, in the top version, for some unknown reason, they are not set more than 2, and the side ones are not provided at all.

But the car has a reliable 3-point seat belts for all people with height settings. There is also an electronic sensor that the seat belts are not fastened. A blocking feature has also been introduced. rear doors to prevent unknown situations, for example, if a child decides to open the door while the car is moving.

With this option, the driver will be able not to be distracted and not worry that one of his passengers (children) may fall out when the car is moving. The design and quality of body metal was inherited from the Lacetti. Strength elements bodies have a thickness of 0.8 mm, and all others - 0.6.

The Daewoo Gentra car safety list includes:

• Front airbags;
• Anti-glare interior mirror rear visibility;
• Central castle;
• Front seat belt tensioners;
• Highly mounted signal-stop;
• immobilizer;
• Front seat belt height settings;
• Indicator of not fastened seat belts;
• Mounts for ISOFIX child seats;
• Rear door locks against unauthorized opening by children when the car is moving;
• Head restraints for passengers sitting behind;
• 3-point inertial belts security.

Crash test

With the release of the new model, it became clear how the new security systems work. The whole point is that the Uzbek sedan received additional airbags and ABS. It turns out that the interior of the car has become more secure even with serious accidents. Since the Uzbek model did not pass its own crash tests, safety data can only be noted taking into account the studies of the “close relative” - Daewoo Lacetti.

Vehicles Korean production(Lacetti) was tested according to the KNCAP method - 56 kilometers per hour with 100% overlap. During the tests, cars with one airbag were used. As a result, during the impact of the front part on the concrete, driver's side was well protected and the area front passenger received medium security.

When the side crash tests were carried out, the Chevrolet Lacetti scored 2 points out of 5. The body began to deform too much, pressure was applied to the chest, and the hips of the dummies showed exceeding the safety thresholds. Strength tests were also carried out in the United States of America, where the name was changed to local market– Suzuki Forenza.

Based on data from the Highway Safety Institute, during offset frontal impacts with high-speed traffic 64 kilometers per hour, the Korean was able to withstand the load on a confident four, however, the heads of the "models" pierced the airbags and hit the steering wheel.

If we talk about side impacts, then the model sold on American market, completely failed these tests. And this despite the fact that there were side airbags. It is likely that the driver rear passenger will receive serious damage to the head and legs due to increased deformation of the body elements.

Options and prices

Price Daewoo Gentra sedan 2015 starts at 419,000 rubles for basic version, which includes fog lights, power steering, power windows and central locking. Modification with a pair of airbags and air conditioning is estimated at 459,000 rubles.

The most expensive top version of the sedan costs 599,000 rubles. It includes - ABS, inserts on the center console "under the tree", an audio system with 6 speakers, a sunroof installed in the roof and alloy wheels. By the end of 2015, the car will already be sold on the Russian market as the Ravon Gentra.

The Daewoo Gentra cost itself is one of key benefits vehicle. The company provides a choice of some configurations with one power unit and 2 gearbox options. It is clear that a car with an automatic transmission costs more. There are 5 trim levels: Comfort, Comfort Plus, Optimum, Optimum Plus and Elegant.

Among other things, standard version Comfort , received a pair of airbags (for the driver and front passenger), air conditioning and electric mirrors. In the luggage compartment there is a full-size 15-inch spare wheel. The steering wheel can be tilt adjusted.

The top equipment Elegant will additionally receive the function of heating the seats installed in front, interior decoration under the tree. The driver's seat can be adjusted in height and in the lumbar region, and the steering wheel can be adjusted not only in tilt angle, but also in reach.

Despite all the configurations, the bumpers of the model, along with mirrors and door handles painted in body color. In any configuration, the differences between cars on the "mechanics" and "automatic" are about 40,000 rubles.

It is worth noting that this is a fairly honest policy of the company, since most other companies sell own cars with automatic transmission only in the most sophisticated configuration. It turns out that they cheat customers with useless features and inflate the cost, but this is not the case with Daewoo Gentra.

tuning

The Uzbek sedan belongs to the division of inexpensive, comfortable and reliable cars that were created for operation on domestic roads. Despite the fact that the exterior of the car is almost identical to the Chevrolet Lacetti, the engineering staff tried to make some changes to the level of comfort, engine and technical capabilities of the car. But they are missing, and the real capabilities of the sedan are revealed only with the help of high-quality chip tuning.

Body and interior tuning

Some drivers prefer to update the exterior and upgrade the interior by tuning the Gentra. Fortunately, the exterior of the sedan allows you to radically improve the appearance with the help of aerodynamic body kits, improved sports rollers, window tinting and body airbrushing. Aerodynamic kit has a front skirt, spoiler, door sills, deflectors, improved bumper and more.

Also, to improve the front of the vehicle, xenon lighting is installed or the basic lighting is reworked by using an LED system, tinting, and so on. Looks good a variety of improvements to the grille, which is being done with my own hands. For example, you can install a mesh and paint it in a body color.

Tuned Daewoo Gentra

The interior of the sedan turned out to be quite high quality, but, according to some owners, there are elevated level noise inside the car. In addition, the Uzbek model suffers from insufficient “thoughtfulness” of the speakers of the basic “music system”. Often tuned Salon Daewoo, improving or changing the color of the backlight "tidy", setting additional lighting inside at the feet of the owner and passengers.

Tuning the technical side

Drivers deciding to convert from a simple sedan sports version cars, do deep technical tuning, including the replacement of the intake and exhaust systems, the use of a new air filter, turbines, and so on. But such improvements can hardly be called budgetary, so many motorists cannot afford them.

To make a quality improvement power unit sedan, you need to install a different distribution mechanism and enlarged valves, bore the cylinders and install a larger diameter piston, improve intake manifold engine, install air filter zero resistance to make or buy straight-through muffler and also replace the brake system, clutch and so on.

It is much easier and easier in the financial area to make a full or partial engine chip tuning for Daewoo Gentra. The result of this improvement will depend on a large number moments, the most important of which is the quality and settings options new program. Tailoring ateliers Daewoo cars, promise an increase in power of 13-15%.

In numbers, it looks something like this - if it used to be 107 horsepower, then the increase can reach up to 120. This can be achieved by recalibrating various settings, removing the EGR valve and recalibrating the ECU fuel map.

If apply good chip tuning, it will allow you to turn off the oxygen sensors, remove the errors that appear due to this, remove the catalytic converter, the USR valve and particulate filter. In addition to all this, you can set the fuel supply settings and correctly adjust the ignition timing to the new computer information.
