Air filter Lada Largus 8 valves is one of the significant elements in the power system of the car. However, many car owners do not pay due attention to it, considering it an unimportant part.
It should be understood that its resource depends on the quality of filtration of the air entering the internal combustion engine. If you do not change the filter in a timely manner or install a low-quality analogue, then air filtration does not occur correctly and particles of dust and dirt begin to get into the engine, which act as an abrasive. If you do not take any measures, then over time, scoring will appear on the internal combustion engine cylinders, which will lead to breakdown of the expensive unit.

Lada Largus: replacing a replaceable air filter element for a 16-valve engine
Replacing the air filter on a 16 valve engine
After selecting the air filter, we proceed to replacing it. The replacement process will not cause you problems; you can handle it yourself.
So, carefully disconnect the rubber clamp securing the resonator, suitable for the air filter.
Next, disconnect the resonator pipe from the air filter pipe and move the resonator to the side
Now we need a Torx T-20 sprocket wrench, with which we unscrew the 2 bolts securing the air filter housing.
Now all we have to do is remove the filter itself, clean the filter housing from dirt and dust, and install a new filter.
Reassemble in reverse order.
How often should you change your air filter?
The photo above clearly shows how much dirt there is on the old filter. Interestingly, it lasted exactly as long as the automaker recommends not changing it. Namely, until the next maintenance is 15,000 km. You can see for yourself the result and what it has become. Again, compared to new. Therefore, if you plan to drive Largus for a long time, change the air filter along with the oil more often. For example, once every 7500 km. Moreover, Zhiguli engines begin to show their affiliation with the brand almost immediately after purchasing the car.

Which air filter is suitable for Lada Largus with VAZ 21129 engine?
The main problem is that LADA did not take care of its consumer. The catalog does not contain a filter directly for the Lada Largus with engine 21129. This is another connivance on the part of the automaker. Everyone has long been accustomed to such things, but it’s still unpleasant every time. I recommend a filter from the BIG FILTER brand. He performed well. However, its cost is around 400-500 rubles. There are other options. But the quality will not be the same. So, after all, BIG FILTER.

Air filter K4M 1.6L, 16V for VAZ Largus since 2012.
Lada Largus cars have been produced since the beginning of 2012. This model is equipped with two types of engines K7M and K4M with a volume of 1.6 liters, 8 and 16 valves. The K4M motor has a trapezoidal filter, located behind the engine. The factory code for the air filter on the K4M is 7701045724 (or 8200431051).
The Lada Largus engine air filter plays an extremely important role in supplying the car with a high-quality fuel-air mixture. It serves to purify the atmospheric air necessary for the engine to form a combustible mixture. Prevents dust, moisture, and foreign objects from entering the combustion chamber, which contribute to increased wear of parts of the cylinder-piston group.
To form a combustible mixture, the Largus engine requires approximately fifteen times more air than fuel. That is, if you burned ten liters of gasoline in a day, the air filter had to process a volume of one hundred and fifty liters. The combustion of this mixture in the engine cylinders directly affects the power of the car engine.
As the filter is used, the working surfaces of the replaceable air filter element become dirty, it cannot pass a sufficient amount of air, which leads to:
- reduction in power and deterioration in the dynamic characteristics of the car. A mixture that is too rich will not allow the engine to operate optimally;
- increased fuel consumption. The lack of air in the combustion chamber will be compensated by increasing the injection of gasoline, which will not burn completely, but will be released into the atmosphere along with the exhaust gases;
— excessive fuel consumption will lead to an increased content of harmful substances in the vehicle exhaust. Prolonged operation in this mode contributes to the formation of carbon deposits on the pistons and spark plugs.
A car with a clogged air filter loses its power, and you start spending extra money on wasted fuel.
In accordance with the regulations, the replaceable element of the air filter of a Lada Largus car is replaced every 15 thousand km. It should be taken into account that the air filter should be replaced not simply based on the mileage of the car after the previous maintenance, but depending on its condition and operating conditions. If your Largus has to travel a lot on roads with dirt, crushed stone or gravel surfaces, which are characterized by increased dust formation, then filter maintenance should be carried out much more often. In the intervals between replacements, it is recommended to clean the element by carefully knocking out dust and blowing with compressed air.
When operating a Lada Largus in a dusty area, the mileage between element replacements should be reduced by 1.5–2 times. A deformed or damaged element must be replaced regardless of mileage.
The quality of our roads and their cleaning leave much to be desired; these intervals often have to be shortened. It should be taken into account that operating a car in winter and in humid climates causes less damage to the filters. Accordingly, dry, dusty summers and sandy terrain will put it out of action much earlier. Taking into account all these factors, it is necessary to replace the filter elements.
A damaged or heavily contaminated air filter element can cause severe wear and loss of engine power.
If the filter is not replaced, the engine begins to “choke” and take on oil, which negatively affects the condition of the cylinder-piston system. As a result, carbon deposits may appear on the pistons, and this is a direct path to major repairs.
Modern filters are sold for VAZ cars, which are popularly called “zero filters”. These products have a long service life because they can be washed. The service life of such filters is approximately 50 thousand kilometers.
It is necessary to regularly check the condition of the working surfaces of the air filter and, if necessary, replace the replacement element.
You can replace the filter on all VAZ cars yourself, even by an untrained driver, using a minimal set of tools, thanks to the simple design of the filter housing and accessible location. To perform the operation, simply disconnect the cover from the body by unscrewing two screws.
Before starting work, it is recommended to remove the wire from the negative terminal of the battery.

Air filter replacement interval Lada Largus 8 cl
If you adhere to the technical regulations, then the air filter is changed either after 15 thousand kilometers or after 12 months - it all depends on what comes first.
I consider this a completely normal replacement period, but provided that the machine is used as normal. If the car is operated in difficult conditions, then it is better to change the engine air filter a little more often - for example, after 10 thousand kilometers.
Looking ahead, I will say: “since the Lada Largus 8-valve air filter is very easy to remove, if possible, you can blow it out with compressed air. This will significantly extend its service life.”
What to do on 16-valve units?
- We find the place of “dislocation” of the element. It is located in the central part of the compartment directly behind the engine.
- Here you will have to unscrew a couple of bolts holding the filter box.
- By loosening the air duct clamps and removing the protection, the halves of the filter box are opened.
- For convenience, the element body should be moved to the side.
- We remove the exhausted component outside.
- We install the new component in its original place.
- Now the body must be returned to its “legal” position.
- Don't forget to install the previously removed plastic protection.
- Tighten the body bolts.
- We clamp the clamps of the air line and, having checked the tightness of the unit, start the engine and enjoy its “free breathing”.
The air filter replacement is complete.
Replacing the air filter on an 8 valve engine
The air filter on an 8-valve engine is located under a plastic cover. After removing it, we will replace the filter.
First you need to unfasten the four spring latches
Now, using a regular Phillips screwdriver, unscrew the 5 screws securing the filter cover. The screws cannot be removed from the lid!
After unscrewing the cover, remove it, take out the filter, clean the housing from dust and debris, if any, and install a new filter. We reassemble in reverse order.
On an 8 valve engine, replacing the filter is much faster and easier than on a 16 valve engine.
What filter is installed on the Largus 16 and 8 cl motor?
For the K4M 1.6 16kl engine, a Renault filter 8200431051 is used. For the K7M 8kl engine, a filter 165469466r is used. However, if it is not possible to purchase an original filter, you can install an analogue. Now many manufacturers offer quite high-quality analogues that are not inferior in quality to the original, but their price is much lower.
