UAZ Hunter is a Russian off-road vehicle produced since 2003. This model is a further development of the UAZ-469 and UAZ-3151 family, which dates back to 1972. The car has a compact five-door body with a length of 4170 mm and ground clearance of 210 mm. At the same time, thanks to short body overhangs and a short wheelbase, this car has high-quality geometric cross-country ability. The model is relevant with the ZMZ-409 and ZMZ-514 engines, which operate with a five-speed manual transmission (previously a manual transmission-4 was available). The archaic design provides for two fuel tanks with a total volume of 78 liters.
Transmission oils for UAZ gearboxes, transfer cases and axles, classification of oils
Transmission oils are designed to lubricate parts of manual transmissions, transfer cases and drive axles. They create a durable lubricating film at the contact points of the parts of these units, which can withstand heavy loads. Transmission oils are defined and differentiated according to the classifications generally accepted today: SAE J306 for viscosity, for example 80W, 90, 75W-85 or 80W-90, and API, which contains a comprehensive assessment of gear oils based on performance properties, for example GL-4 or GL-5. In addition, along with the API specification, indicators according to the American military specification, denoted by the MIL index, may sometimes be used. For example MIL-L-2105A or MIL-L-2105B.
Features of the classification of transmission oils according to SAE and API
SAE viscosity grades with the letter W refer to seasonal oils for the cold season, for example 75W or 80W. Accordingly, without W - to oils for warm summer time, for example 90 or 140. However, since the resource of transmission oils is quite long, using seasonal oils in everyday use, changing them in units every six months, is very inconvenient and not economically profitable.
For these reasons, so-called thickened or all-season transmission oils have become more widespread. They combine the properties of two types of oil at once - summer and winter, which is reflected in their marking, which already consists of two numbers separated by the letter W, for example 75W-90 or 85W-140.
The API classification currently contains five categories - GL-1, GL-2, GL-3, GL-4 and GL-5, which show the applicability and quality level of gear oils. For example, in category GL-5 - oil contains extreme pressure, anti-wear and other additives, used for hypoid and other types of gears in gearboxes and drive axles of cars.
Transmission oils for UAZ Hunter and UAZ Patriot gearboxes
Several types of synchronized gearboxes can be installed on UAZ Hunter cars and all models based on it: a four-speed Russian-made, a five-speed ADS made in China or a five-speed DYMOS made in Korea. On the UAZ Patriot and all models based on it, only a Korean-made five-speed DYMOS gearbox is installed. The plant recommends filling the four-speed gearbox with SAE 75W-90 gear oil according to API - GL-3. The Chinese-made five-speed ADS gearbox and the Korean-made five-speed DYMOS gearbox are SAE 75W-85, API GL-4.
Transmission oils for mechanical transfer case UAZ Hunter and UAZ Patriot
When equipping a vehicle with a four-speed or five-speed ADS gearbox, the plant recommends filling the mechanical transfer case produced by UAZ OJSC with the same transmission oil as the gearbox. This is quite justified, since it is due to the fact that during operation, partial flow of oil from the gearbox is possible into the transfer case. The oil level in the gearbox may drop by 8 mm. relative to the lower edge of the filler hole and will accordingly rise in the transfer case.
According to the plant, in this case it is not necessary to equalize the oil levels in these units.
When the car is equipped with a Korean five-speed DYMOS gearbox, it is recommended to fill the mechanical transfer case with SAE 75W-90 gear oil according to API - GL-3. Although there is no particular point in this, since oil from the DYMOS box also tends to flow into the transfer case, so it is more rational to fill both units with the same oil to prevent possible mixing of different oils.
Transmission oils for the front and rear axles of the UAZ Hunter and UAZ Patriot
In the crankcase of both axles, the manufacturer recommends using transmission oil SAE 75W-90 according to API - GL-5.
Selecting transmission oil for the gearbox, mechanical transfer case and axles of the UAZ Hunter and UAZ Patriot
Of course, you should listen to the instructions from the factory operating manual regarding the selection of gear oils. But small deviations from the recommendations, in one direction or another, are quite acceptable and are primarily due to certain operational reasons and economic indicators. Read more about this in the next article at the link.
How much oil to fill
First generation 315195, since 2003
UAZ Hunter is the successor to models 31512 and 31514, on the basis of which it was created. Moreover, all three cars were developed on the basis of the UAZ-469 model of 1972. In the mid-2010s, UAZ suspended production of the SUV, but then the opportunity arose to resume production thanks to partial adaptation to modern standards.

Thus, the car received Euro 5 support and updated safety. Since 2022, the UAZ Hunter is officially a truck of the N1G category, which does not include airbags. Among the modern attributes available for Hunter, we can highlight ABS and the Era-Glonass module. The car differs from the UAZ-469 in its plastic radiator grille, black window frames with “rivets”, sliding glass in the windows, different bumpers and a one-piece rear door. As for engines, at first the UMZ-421 engine was available for Hunter, which was later replaced by the heavier (190 versus 170 kg) ZMZ-409.
- Transfer case oil: volume – 0.7 liters, tolerance and viscosity: API-GL-3-4, TSp-15K. TAP-15V, TAD-17I; SAE 75W-90
- Rear axle gearbox oil – 0.85 liters; front - 0.85 liters; tolerance and viscosity: API-GL-3-4, TSp-15K. TAP-15V, TAD-17I; SAE 75W-90
Changing the oil in UAZ Patriot axles
When operating a vehicle, it is important to follow all manufacturer's recommendations. One of these recommendations is changing the oil in the axles. The oil in Patriot axles is changed every 50-70 thousand mileage. But it must be remembered that after overcoming a deep ford, an oil change is also necessary. The fact is that when passing a ford, the axle gearboxes are immersed in water and water enters the gearbox through the breather (hole for ventilation of the gearbox). On prepared cars, the breather is extended (usually brought to the highest point) and fords can be stormed with less danger. To replace it yourself, you will need:
- transmission oil;
- special syringe for filling;
- tank or canister for old oil;
- clean rags;
- metal brush.

Tips and recommendations for changing oil in UAZ Patriot axles Before changing the oil, you need to drive the car about 10 kilometers to reach operating temperature. Within 15 minutes after this, change the oil; only at this temperature will you be able to drain the maximum amount of used oil. After carrying out the replacement work, record the mileage readings. Carry out the next replacement after 30 thousand km. mileage
Changing the oil in the front axle of the UAZ Patriot
Replacement procedure:
- Drive your own car onto a lift or repair pit.
- Find the oil filler cap on the front axle housing and remove a layer of dirt from it using a wire brush.
- Remove this cover.
- Unscrew the drain plug, first placing a tank or canister for old oil.
- Use a wire brush to thoroughly clean the drain plug from metal shavings and dirt.
- Place the cork in its place.
- Using a syringe, pour new oil through the filler hole on the crankcase body. According to technical data, the volume of oil in the crankcase should be 1 liter 300 grams. It is necessary to fill the oil until it begins to flow from the oil filler hole.
- Reinstall the oil filler cap in its place.
This completes the oil change in the front axle.
Changing the oil in the rear axle of the UAZ Patriot
Replacement procedure:
- Find the oil filler cap on the crankcase housing in the rear axle and remove a layer of dirt from it using a wire brush.
- Remove the cap from the oil filler hole.
- Unscrew the drain plug, first placing a tank or canister for old oil.
- Use a wire brush to thoroughly clean the drain plug from metal shavings and dirt.
- Install the plug back.
- Using a syringe, pour new oil into the crankcase filler hole. According to technical data, the volume of oil in the rear axle should be 1 liter 300 grams. It is necessary to fill the oil until it begins to flow from the oil filler hole.
- Reinstall the oil filler cap in its place.
This completes the oil change in the rear axle.
When to change the oil in the transfer case, gearbox and axles of the UAZ Hunter
It is recommended to change the oil in the transfer case, gearbox and axles of the UAZ Hunter SUV every 30-40 thousand km. A more precise replacement schedule depends on operating conditions and the condition of the lubricant. For example, it quickly becomes unusable when driving frequently off-road or in city traffic jams due to frequent stops, sudden starts and braking. In addition, the following signs indicate deterioration in oil quality: cloudiness and blackening, as well as insufficient oil level and thickening.
Oil for the rear axle of a UAZ, how much to fill, which one to choose?
03/13/2017 Good afternoon everyone. The topic of today's article is oil in the rear axle of a UAZ. I think you’ve already guessed from the title what the article is about, so there won’t be a brief review as usual for our site. Let’s agree on the shore that there is no point in making a gradation by car, i.e. the bridge of the loaf, hunter and patriot is no different - SPICER is installed from the factory today. And the “collective farms” and “voyaki” bridges are much less demanding on oil than current bridges. Accordingly, there is no difference which UAZ and which bridge. Recommendations for choosing oil are valid for all UAZ vehicles of all years of manufacture.
Selection by oil type
Classics of the genre - synthetics, semi-synthetics and mineral water. It would seem - pour whatever is more expensive and change it according to the instructions and you will be happy... but not everything is so simple... The choice of oil for the rear axle, specifically in the case of a UAZ, is not obvious. The fact is that oil of the same viscosity characteristic varies greatly in price depending on the type. Mineral water Lukoil GL5 85W90 costs about 300 rubles per liter, synthetic mannol of similar viscosity already costs 800 rubles for the same “litrushka”. Now why is it difficult to choose - if you often go to the forest (and how could it be otherwise with a UAZ), and constantly storm puddles , and swamps, water will inevitably get into the bridges through the breathers.
Water in oil is his guaranteed death... and operating the bridge on a cocktail of oil and water will not improve his health.
Therefore, if you operate a UAZ only in the summer on trophy raids, it is cheaper to pour mineral water and change it at the first suspicion of water ingress! In winter, synthetics definitely rule, due to greater temperature stability. A car running on synthetics does not need to be “rolled out”; it can drive almost as soon as the engine warms up and due to the viscosity of the oil in the transmission, it saves a lot of fuel! In fact, my gasoline consumption decreased from 18 to 17 liters after I changed the oil in the axles and gearbox to synthetic! About semi-synthetics...
This oil should not be considered. The fact is that this is an ordinary mineral water with added additives, in fact it is the same mineral water, but more expensive... If you want to pay the labor of marketers, semi-synthetics are your choice, but for a car it makes no sense - in winter it thickens like mineral water, and in summer there is no difference...
We agreed - in the summer, if we constantly knead the dirt, use mineral water and change it more often, in the winter - synthetics. If we drive around the city all year round and use the UAZ as an ass-cart, it is better to completely switch to synthetics. There is no point in considering semi-synthetics.
Selection by viscosity
There is often a recommendation to pour NIGROL into military bridges and collective farms. Nigrol is a residue (waste) from the direct distillation of oil mixed with asphalt tar! So here are UAZovod colleagues. Such oil has not existed in nature for 60 years, and what is now sold under the brand name nigrol is TEP-15, it cannot be called nigrol... I also want to warn you against the TAD 17 recommended by many... that “tad” has long been No. And (imported additives) have long since run out, and what is now being sold under this brand is unknown even to those who bottle this oil. The design of the UAZ differential is not well thought out, and the gears have a high slip coefficient, so pouring low-quality oil is unacceptable! On nigrol the bridge will start to howl very quickly, on TAda - depending on your luck! The plant recommends pouring oil into the bridge with a viscosity of 85w-90 according to SAE . The manufacturer is not important! Change the oil on time and do not come into contact with burnt (left) oil. Personally, I use 75w-90 like this (yes, it comes in gl4, gl5 and gl4/5, I pour the last 2 depending on what is available): If the bridge howls (yes, on a UAZ it happens that the bridge is noisier than the box and transfer case combined), it is permissible to increase the viscosity of the oil in the axle to 85w-140, it is with this oil that the author of this article used Hunter for 2 years, i.e. the bridge howled, thick oil was poured in, and the UAZ was sold with this oil!
How much oil goes into the rear axle of a UAZ
In any case, the same oil is poured into the front and rear axles, so when changing the oil in the axles, I always took 3 liters. That's all for me today. Reliable UAZs and honest officials to all. Sincerely, administrator https://life-with-cars.ru/
Oil for axles on UAZ Patriot
The UAZ Patriot SUV needs periodic oil changes not only for the engine, gearbox and transfer case, but also for such important units as axles. UAZ Patriot is an all-wheel drive vehicle, but the rear axle is the permanently functioning axle. The front one comes into play if it is necessary to overcome dangerous off-road areas. We will not pay attention to the question of what the structure of SUV axles is, but will consider the following questions: what kind of oil is best to choose for pouring into axles, when such a replacement needs to be carried out and how this process is carried out.
Purpose of the oil
UAZ Patriot is not just a car, but an SUV, in which each mechanism consists of many parts. Axles or a gearbox on an SUV are some kind of containers with oil in which the working elements, that is, gears, operate. Often these devices have two gears, which, due to friction with each other, transmit torque from the transfer case to the wheels.
During the operation of the gears, they are worn out, resulting in the formation of chips or small particles of metal in the containers, that is, inside the bridge. These particles must be removed from these devices so that they do not cause jamming of rotating parts, which will entail not the most pleasant consequences.
Thus, we found out that the lubricating fluid inside the bridge also performs a cleaning function. But this is not the only function of the lubricating fluid in this device. Considerable importance is also given to the process of removing heat from parts that heat up as a result of friction. If during friction the metal reaches a critical temperature value, then it can either lose its original properties or crumble. Therefore, removing heat from heating parts in axles is an important function of the lubricating fluid on the UAZ Patriot SUV.
But even this does not end the functions of the lubricating fluid. Equally important is the direct lubrication of rubbing parts - bearings, gears, shafts that make up the gearbox. Thus, the oil smoothes out the friction process of steel parts, as a result of which the service life of such elements increases tens of times.
If there were no oil in the design of the axles of the UAZ Patriot SUV, then every creak of a part would be heard while this steel horse was moving. At the same time, a car without lubricants in the main units would not be able to cover even a few kilometers. Therefore, in this article we will look at what kind of oil needs to be poured into the gearboxes of a UAZ Patriot SUV and how to do it correctly.
Lubricant selection
The designers of the Ulyanovsk Automobile Plant recommend pouring an all-season type of oil with a viscosity grade of SAE 75W/90 according to API GL-5 into the axles of the UAZ Patriot SUV. But what the manufacturer recommends does not mean that you need to use only these types. You need to take this into account, and you can fill in anything, the main thing is that the car drives after that. This is all, of course, a lyrical digression, but you need to find out which oil is best to pour into the Patriot gearbox, and which will be the best and optimal for any buyer. You can reduce the consumption of your Patriot! To do this, read...
So, there are three types of lubricants: synthetics, semi-synthetics and mineral water. More information about these fluids can be found in the material on choosing gearbox oil.
It should only be noted that the first option is the most expensive, but the most effective. It is not recommended to use it only in devices with high output. After all, the viscosity of the liquid is such that a slight violation of the seal leads to a leak. As a result, you will need to constantly monitor the level in the system and top up. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jd1ofL56r44 Mineral water is the cheapest option and is often used in cars with high mileage, since the viscosity of this material is low and even significant damage seals or oil seals will not lead to significant losses of oil from the system. The best of all options is the third type of product - semi-synthetic. Semi-synthetics are affordable for all motorists and are an excellent solution for lubricating a unit such as axles. There are a lot of lubricant manufacturers, so choosing the optimal product is an important feature. So, these units can be filled with oils from the following manufacturers:
- Castrol Syntrax Long Life 75W90;
- GT Hypoid Synt 75W90;
- Zic GF Top 75W-85.
The best option is to fill the axles of an SUV with synthetic oil. But it should be taken into account that the serviceability of all seals must be at a high level. Otherwise, the poured expensive oil will spill onto the asphalt and then the gears will jam. Controlling the lubricating fluid in axles is quite problematic, since the units do not have a special level to check the fluid volume. If you do not notice leaks in time, you can pay serious expenses for bridge repairs.
When is the replacement carried out?
Having found out which oil is best to pour into the axles of an SUV, you should figure out when it is necessary to begin the replacement process. The manufacturer recommends replacing lubricant in axles every 40 thousand kilometers. Changing the oil in UAZ Patriot axles is not particularly difficult, so after such runs, you can pay attention to good types of oils.
But here the question arises: what volume does the front and rear gearbox have and how much fluid is needed to fill them? The volume of the rear axle of the UAZ Patriot SUV is 1.3 liters. The volume of the front axle is slightly larger and is 1.4 liters.
On a new car, it is recommended to change the oil after 10-15 thousand kilometers, because you never know what the manufacturer could have filled the axles with. Therefore, we fill the gearbox with oil for the first time after 15-20 thousand km, and the next time after 40,000 km.
Replacement in the front axle
In conclusion, it remains to find out what the process of replacing lubricant on the rear and front axles is. So let's start with the front:
- We install the car on the inspection hole and carry out the process of draining the waste. This only needs to be done when the system is preheated. To do this, you should drive the car for 15-20 minutes, and then start replacing the lubricant on both the front and rear axles.
- To unscrew the drain plug you will need a 12" hex wrench. With its help, the plug is unscrewed and the waste is drained into a previously prepared container. The photo below shows the location of the front axle drain plug.
- In order for the waste to drain faster, it is necessary to unscrew the filler plug, located slightly higher, above the drain.
- After draining the waste, you should screw in the drain plug, having previously cleaned it of dirt and dust.
- New oil is added using a technical or medical syringe. After this, screw in the plug and complete the replacement.
As you can see, the process is not particularly difficult, and every car owner can perform such procedures. Replacing the lubricant on the rear gearbox is carried out in a similar way, so it makes no sense to consider this process. In the material, we discussed all the questions about changing the oil in the axles of a UAZ SUV Patriot. We can sum it up by noting the importance of periodically changing the oil in SUV gearboxes. Otherwise, each car owner can imagine how this could end. Therefore, it is not always correct to choose expensive oil that may remain on the asphalt. How often does your Patriot break down?
What oil to use for the gearbox, axles and transfer case of the UAZ Hunter
Original
Two types of oil are recommended for the gearbox, axles and transfer case of the UAZ Hunter - semi-synthetic or synthetic. So, mainly in winter you should use oil with a viscosity of SAE 70W, 75W, 80W or 85W, and for summer use SAE 90, 140 or 250 is suitable. The most popular is all-season oil for year-round use - with a viscosity of SAE 75W-80, 80W-85, 85W-90, 75W-90 or 80W-90.
Unoriginal
To service the transfer case, gearbox and axles of the UAZ Hunter SUV, it is better to choose oil from trusted manufacturers - Mannol, Total, Eneos, ZIC, Castrol, Kixx, etc. Regarding the type of viscosity, it should be noted that synthetic oil is more fluid, suitable for cars of recent years release.
Accordingly, mineral water or semi-synthetics are recommended for older cars. It has a relatively thick consistency, which means there is less chance of leaks in the presence of microcracks or gaps between contact pairs. In addition, when choosing an oil, pay attention to the current tolerance indicators API-GL-3, 4 or 5. A higher API indicator indicates a greater number of useful additives. However, in the case of Hunter, these additives make no sense, so you can limit yourself to API-GL-3 or 4. Below are examples of suitable oils for the transfer case, gearbox and axles for the UAZ Hunter.
- Castrol Syntrax Long Life 75W-90
- ZIC GF Top 75W-85
- GT Hypoid Synt 75W-90.

How much oil is in the UAZ Patriot engine
Owners of the domestic UAZ Patriot SUV are well acquainted with home repairs. This car can only conditionally be classified as a modern car, but on the other hand, this can be considered its undeniable advantage, due to its simple design. Thanks to this, owners can carry out a wide variety of repair procedures with the Patriot, including the most complex ones. In addition, this is supported by a developed service base and low cost of parts. Against the backdrop of all this, procedures such as changing the engine oil seem like a very easy task. This is true, and besides, even an inexperienced UAZ Patriot owner can cope with changing engine oil. However, choosing the right oil is a rather responsible task that requires certain knowledge, including parameters and numbers. You also need to know the best brands and how much oil to put in the engine. We will look at all this in more detail in the article.
When replacement is required
The frequency of replacement of consumables for UAZ Patriot, taking into account difficult climatic factors, is on average 10 thousand kilometers. But it must be said right away that this inaccurate indicator can be corrected. The fact is that there are still important factors that influence the replacement schedule. In addition to off-road conditions and sudden temperature changes, rapid wear of the beneficial properties of oil is affected by driving style, sudden lane changes and even traffic violations. The car in question is not designed for driving at high speeds, and is intended exclusively for other purposes.
UAZ Patriot is a car that in itself is unreliable and clumsy, requiring timely maintenance. The same goes for regular oil changes. Practice shows that this procedure may be required even earlier than after 10 thousand kilometers.
Such cases are not excluded, and in order to avoid premature wear of internal combustion engine components, it is necessary to check the condition of the oil in advance.
Oil volume
According to the regulations, the 409 engine will require 7 liters, in practice this figure is usually reduced to 6.0 - 6.5 liters.
How to check the condition of the oil
To determine whether the oil has become unusable, you should pay attention to its color and smell. So, if the liquid is colored dark brown and smells burnt, then this indicates mechanical wear of parts, which occurs due to the loss of the oil’s beneficial properties. The situation can become even worse, for example, when the oil contains sediment in the form of dirt deposits and metal shavings. Such and similar symptoms usually occur with high mileage, including untimely replacement. So, it is advisable to check the condition of the oil in advance, and not wait for the replacement schedule. But this raises another question - when exactly should you check the oil.
Car as a cause of bad oil
We have already identified the signs of an urgent oil change. Next, let's look at how the behavior of a car can affect the shelf life of consumables. In other words, let’s highlight a few other signs, the detection of which can indirectly suggest that the oil really needs to be replaced.
- Insufficient engine power
- Increased fuel consumption
- Increased oil consumption
- Unclear gear shifting
- Noises and vibrations
If any of these signs appear, it would be a good idea to check the condition of the oil.
How to choose the right oil for UAZ Patriot
The main engine for this SUV is the gasoline ZMZ-409, which is more common than the imported 2.2-liter diesel engine. But whatever the country of origin in which these engines are developed, only the highest quality oil should be selected for them.

Conclusion
Based on the information received, we can conclude that for UAZ Patriot, starting from 2013, the best option will be synthetic oil of imported brands. It is also necessary to take into account the viscosity parameters (SAE) and the degree of quality (API). For example, for a 2013 model year car, an all-season synthetic-based oil with recommended parameters of 10W-50 SN is suitable. For the more modern 2022 model, the preferred option would be 0W-50 SN synthetic oil, which is very effective in the cold season.
Many questions arise when choosing lubricants for our UAZ vehicles, especially when you visit stores that offer a very large assortment of both domestic and imported products.
Moreover, at the moment, engines have become more forced, gearboxes are imported, etc., which requires a more careful approach to the choice of oils. Previously, with the old UAZ, such questions did not arise. TAD-17 or nigrol TAP-15 into the gearbox, transfer case and axles, and into the M-10 or M-8 engine, depending on the season. It is very expensive to travel on nigrol in winter. A cold and unheated car practically did not roll and fuel consumption increased significantly. And now there are winter and summer oils, synthetics, mineral water and semi-synthetics, how do you figure this out?
