[B] [U] How to change the cabin filter by re-gluing the filter cloth on lifan 520 breez [/ U] [/ B]

Here is a complete procedure, with explanations in the photo.

"Cheap and Merry" or "Mythbusters"?

A Chinese car appeared in our research. Among people, the opinion about the dubious quality of Chinese products has already been firmly established. Either as a joke, or to find out the truth, but we decided to study the reviews of the owners of Lifan Breez. Is a Chinese car really that unreliable, or is it just nit-picking about trivial malfunctions in a cheap car that you can put up with.

Video (click to play).

A common problem that almost everyone has is a thermostat malfunction. You can replace it with your own, but not for long, it is better to look for a suitable analogue replacement.

The trouble with the door handles can result in the inability to either enter the car or get out of it, usually the rear door handles were the first to fail in people.

3. Leaking coolant.

Especially in winter, coolant losses are very frequent. Clamps, pipes and a radiator distinguished themselves by poor sealing.

The stove fan can suddenly fail, a rather annoying nuisance both in winter and in summer. In summer, without a fan in the heater, you will not be able to enjoy the coolness of the air conditioner.

The sealing and seals of the cabin do not differ in quality and thoughtfulness. In summer, a lot of dust gets into the cabin, and after rains - water. The owners put up with this, it is almost impossible to fix it.

Shock absorbers in Lifan Breez do not last long, and initially they do not differ in any elasticity. They can fail even without traces of smudges, they just stop working.

Ball joints made of Chinese metal do not differ in reliability and quality. There were cases of replacement every 10,000 km, which, with an average intensity of car operation, is obtained 2-3 times a year. One owner bragged about indestructible ball joints after they were brought to mind by a familiar turner, but what exactly this turner did is unknown to anyone, so only a replacement.

Noise from the road, engine, rubber, squeaks, crickets are constant companions on the road. Complete insulation of the cabin, gluing of plastic panels will help.

Each owner finds it difficult to answer how many light bulbs have been changed during the operation, they can only say one thing - “a lot”.

Lifan Breez windows love to hang, as many owners say. What exactly is meant by this is not clear, apparently, they work “at will”.

What people liked about Lifan Breez:

- Low price
- Car design
- Large trunk

- fastidiousness to gasoline, the “SVS” and “Chek Engine” light constantly lights up
- poor quality of seat trim
- uncomfortable sitting, back tired
- thin metal, bends from a jack, in an accident - horror
- no spare parts, long wait for the order and expensive
- sluggish behavior on the road
- low overhang at the front, often clings to the ground.

I would like to note that Lifan Breez breakdowns are not actually fatal, but their number and frequency makes the owners think about buying in a year. From the comments and reviews, we can conclude that Lifan Breez does not always justify its amount. Cars made in China are not much more reliable than the Russian assembly. Nevertheless, Lifan Breez attracts more and more new buyers due to the large number of options starting from the basic configuration; there are practically no competitors among budget cars of similar cost.

5. Remove the fuel injectors (4 pcs.).

6. Check the compression. For this:

- install a compression gauge in the holes of the spark plugs;

- turn the throttle valve to the full opening position;

- after starting the engine, check the compression;

To check the compression, a charged battery must be used so that the engine speed is at least 250 rpm.

- repeat the steps for each cylinder;

The pressure must be at least 1370 kPa (for a 1.3 liter engine) and 1000 (for a 1.6 liter engine). The minimum allowable pressure is 981 kPa. The differential pressure in the cylinders must not exceed 98 kPa.

- if the measured pressure is less than the permissible one, then it is necessary to lubricate the spark plug hole with a small amount of engine oil, then repeat the steps. If after that the pressure is normal, the piston rings or cylinder walls are damaged. If the pressure is still low, valves are not tight or exhaust gas is leaking from the cylinder head gasket.

7. Screw in the spark plugs with the special tool.

8. Connect the high voltage wires to the spark plugs.

There are 16 types of washers. The thickness of each is from 2.5 mm to 3.30 mm with a difference of 0.05 mm.

- install new adjusting washers on the valve tappets;

Due to the fact that the axial clearance of the camshaft is too small, the shaft must be removed horizontally, otherwise the thrust bearing may be damaged, followed by damage to the camshaft.

Performing the following operations will avoid the above problem.

- turn the crankshaft pulley, install the exhaust camshaft so that the locating pin is located slightly above the upper part of the cylinder head (see figure);

- Apply grease to the opposite thrust part of the camshaft;

- align the marks of each gear, establish the engagement of the camshaft gears (see figure);

For installation, do not use the marks on the gears, which are intended for the installation of TDC.

- fix the intake camshaft on the bearing and establish the meshing of the gears; Thus, the cams of cylinders # 1 and # 3 push the tappets evenly.

- install bearing caps (4 pcs.);

- Apply a small amount of engine oil to the lower part and the thread of the bearing cap bolt;

- tighten the bearing cap fastening bolts in the sequence shown in the figure. Tightening torque: 9 Nm (for a 1.3 liter engine) and 11 Nm (for a 1.6 liter engine);
