In detail: do-it-yourself repair of a Daewoo Matiz box from a real master for the site my.housecope.com.
The owner can say “lucky”, they noticed in time that oil was leaking from under the car. We lifted the car on a lift, from below, in the area of the differential, we immediately noticed a crack. And not from an external blow, but from an internal one. The owner argued that no prerequisites (noises, knocks.) Of a manual transmission malfunction during the operation period were not observed. just repaired the starter.
A 0.8-liter engine, the process of removing the manual transmission did not cause any difficulties - we unscrew everything that interferes.
Disassembling the box is a little more difficult than the VAZ-2110, the main thing is not to rush and memorize the sequence of actions. We remove the cover of the 5th speed, the pin securing the transmission fork is knocked out with a suitable drift, the fit is tight, so you need a few precise hits with a heavier hammer. locking pin.
We turn off the gear selection mechanism. and rod clamps of choice.
We clean the broken half of the crankcase from shafts, forks.
Crack in one half of the crankcase 6 cm long.
... but - "hero of the occasion" - a bolt.
... after a comparative analysis of all the fasteners for the manual transmission of the engine compartment, it became clear that this bolt fastened the starter, and it can only be unscrewed when the gear selection mechanism is removed. We wish the electrician a pleasant conversation with the car owner.
This new improved automatic transmission Daewoo Matiz being light and compact, designed for a very small class car (type FF), to ensure smooth operation, fast driving and improved fuel consumption. Its electronically controlled shifting and oil pressure ensure smooth gear ratios under a variety of driving conditions, including throttle position and vehicle speed. This ensures even (smooth) driving at all speeds.

Most of the owners of the Daewoo Matiz car, sooner or later, are faced with problems arising from the clutch. There may be many reasons for this, however, on average, such difficulties appear after 90 thousand kilometers. Moreover, no matter how carefully you operated your car.

The whole point is in the design of gearbox assemblies and assemblies, which have a relatively short period of their own operation. A with more aggressive driving, we can even talk about 40-50 thousand kilometers, so this breakdown can be quite typical for a practically new car.
As a result of work on replacing the clutch basket on the Matiz car, it is possible to gain access to all the internal parts of this unit. An example of dismantling the clutch basket on an early Daewoo Matiz 1.0L car will be considered.
Daewoo Matiz clutch basket
Also, you will need to use a hydraulic lift or a viewing hole. This is necessary in order to be able to support the checkpoint using the above stop. Otherwise, it will be almost impossible to access the clutch, in particular to its basket. We lift the car onto the lift and proceed.
So, we open the hood, where we free up the space that we need to access the gearbox mounting elements.This set of works includes dismantling the air filter and battery. The very same battery installation site will also need to be removed, as well as disconnect the gear selection cable. In addition, if the wiring harnesses bother you, they can be disconnected or simply put aside, however, the first option is preferable because you will have a lot more room to work.
Free up space under the hood (bottom) and take out the left drive (left)After that, you will need to remove the starter and unscrew the clutch cable. However, all wires attached to the box must also be dismantled, as well as part of the left front suspension. The latter is necessary in order to gain direct access to the transmission and its accompanying components. After that, in a Matiz car, replacing the clutch will become quite real.
After all the above actions have been carried out, observing great care, we take out the complete left-hand drive. Also, you will need to unscrew the bottom bolts used for fastening.
Disconnect the box and gain access to the worn out clutchPutting the adjustable stop under the gearbox, unscrew all the remaining mounting bolts, completely freeing the gearbox.
Here, it is best if someone helps you, so as not to harm yourself or your car.
Having reached the gearbox itself, we get full access to the basket and the clutch disc with the possibility of disassembling them.
If you only need to replace the clutch basket, then we dismantle the old one with the further installation of a new one in its place. The main thing, in this case, is not to tighten the bolts to the end. Next, you will need to insert a special centering mandrel into the corresponding hole on the shaft. At the same time, we press the basket and make sure that the free travel of the mandrel remains normal.
Release bearing for Daewoo MatizIf there is such a need, then we install the release bearing on the shaft in the box. After that, you will need to do all the above steps in reverse order. Thus, we have achieved that in Daewoo Matiz the replacement of the clutch is carried out almost at home, with improvised means and completely independently, with the exception of a little help from someone from our acquaintances at the time of dismantling the gearbox.
If you need to work exclusively with the clutch, then it will not be necessary to completely dismantle the gearbox. You can simply move it to the side by hanging it from above or fixing it to the corresponding stop. The main thing is to be sure that the transmission will not dangle freely during operation. After assembly, it will be appropriate to adjust the clutch, even if you have not changed its configuration, simply replacing the part that is out of order. Also, it is worth noting the obligatory use of a centering mandrel, since otherwise it will be impossible to install the gearbox in its place. Also, remember to only use original spare parts.
Repair of the gearbox (checkpoint) Daewoo Matiz can be major or partial. Repair of the box (manual transmission) Daewoo Matiz should be done only after the initial diagnosis in a car service. Very often, a third-party opinion that the box needs to be repaired turns out to be erroneous. It can also be caused by the clutch, flywheel, and gear selector.
We offer two options for repairing a transmission (manual transmission):
Partial (local) repair of the Daewoo Matiz gearbox - we remove the box, disassemble it, wash and defect. Troubleshooting a box is determining the cause of its failure, indicating a specific malfunction. A list of spare parts for this malfunction is also provided. After agreement, we make repairs to eliminate the specific malfunction that the client has contacted. We do not touch the rest of the components and spare parts in the gearbox.
Overhaul of the checkpoint Daewoo Matiz - as well as with partial repairs, the box is removed and completely disassembled, washed and defective. In this case, we are not looking for a specific cause of the breakdown, but we are doing a complete defect diagnosis. All units and spare parts with increased wear, all bearings, oil seals and gaskets are determined and changed.
Symptoms: crunching when changing gears, gear shifting occurs with complications.
Possible reason: defective gearbox.
Tools: wrench set, socket set, flat blade screwdriver, Phillips screwdriver.

In the official Daewoo service in Krasnoyarsk, where effective managers are sitting who are ready to push you spare parts past the checkout, they were generally surprised - one day they said that this gasoline is so bad in our country, they will be charged with acetone. The next day they said that you need to do a drip. repair (mileage 105 thousand, the problem appeared a long time ago). They were sent in a known direction. For, as I understand it, their main goal is to process the client to shell out for the largest amount of dough.
Good day to all!
Matiz II, 2011, 0.8 liter engine.
Mileage 36,000 and sentenced to the right pillow, which is located on the right side member, next to the timing cover.
Questions:
1. Do I understand it correctly in the diagram (attached) pos. 30 (96610689)?
2. Is it possible to replace this pillow on your own, without hanging the engine?
Many thanks to all who responded!

We will show you how to change the oil in the manual gearbox of the manual transmission of the Daewoo Matiz with our own hands. The oil change in the manual transmission must be carried out on a warm car. In order to get to the drain plug, you first need to remove the protection, for this we unscrew the three fastening bolts with a 12 head. Unscrew the drain plug with a “square” wrench, 3/8 ″ (≈9.5mm), with a filling wrench 24. First, unscrew the filler plug so that when the oil is drained, it does not splash when draining.
The oil level in the box can be checked by unscrewing the filler plug and sticking a finger or a piece of paper folded in there. We unscrew the drain plug, substitute the necessary container in advance. Do not forget to clean the plug, it is equipped with a magnet that attracts metal shavings. We tighten the drain plug back, tightening torque 25-30 Nm.
The new transmission oil which we will fill with semi-synthetic “FX 75W-85” semi-synthetics (from my experience I recommend taking synthetics):
The new oil will be poured using this technical syringe:
We connect a flexible hose to it. We put the hose from the syringe into the filler hole and squeeze out the oil. We tighten the filler plug, tightening torque 35-54 Nm. Installing the crankcase protection back.

Daewoo Matiz has been produced for the second decade - first in
Korea, then Uzbekistan. Indeed, due to the small size, simplicity
design and poor equipment, even the new Matiz is still one of
the cheapest cars on the market. And already second-hand ...
But it turned out that, like from the progenitor of Daewoo Tico, you should not expect miracles of reliability from Matiz.
The fact that Matiz looks modern even after 17 years is a merit
Italians from the ItalDesign studio, who hoped that
Concept Lucciola will be the prototype of the new production baby Fiat
Cinquecento. But Fiat residents rejected the project, and Giugiaro sold it
Koreans.
And technically, Matiz is Daewoo Tico, which, in turn,
is a 1982 Suzuki Alto. Not the worst for their own
years of construction, and if she had any "childhood diseases", they
long ago cured by the Japanese. Inherited from Tico Matiz three-cylinder
a 0.8-liter motor (with multipoint fuel injection instead of
carburetor, and since 2002 with a neutralizer), mechanical
transmission and suspension elements.
In 2002, the engine received a "brother" with a fourth cylinder and
additional 12 hp power - being less loaded, liter
the unit usually "nurses" the plant's promised resource of 200 thousand
kilometers. Of course, the figure is not God knows what - today is average
"Mileage" of motors up to one and a half liters is 250-300 thousand
kilometers. But equally archaic, albeit more powerful one and a half liter
motors on the "relative" Nexia usually last only a little longer. A
weak and poorly balanced three-cylinder "base" engine
Matiz sometimes requires overhaul with cylinder bore after 130-150
thousand kilometers.
On little things, both engines begin to bother even earlier. Signal about
malfunctions on the dashboard sometimes appear after 10 thousand
kilometers of run - spark plugs fail. Sometimes with absolutely
low mileage, about 20 thousand kilometers, the engines start
run unevenly or stall when asking to replace the position sensor
throttle body ($ 50), intake manifold pressure sensor
($ 80) or cleaning the idle speed control. Denied early
high-voltage wires and ignition coils, for engines with a volume of 0.8 liters
often requires replacement of an ignition distributor with an electromagnetic
sensor ($ 170), and the very first
sloppy engine wash. The "liter" versions initially had
more reliable electronic ignition modules that appeared on the younger
motor only with its transfer to Euro-3 at the end of 2008.
By 50-60 thousand kilometers, a burnt-out muffler can loudly
require repairs, and the fuel pump ($ 200) - replacements. The latter is more often
happens to cars with steel rather than plastic tanks. Which of the tanks
installed on the car - a lottery, and when buying a gas pump, be
attentive - they differ in the type of gas tank.
Lucciola prototype in 1993
year, ItalDesign offered as a replacement for the Fiat
Cinquecento. But FIAT developed the new Seicento on its own, and
ItalDesign in 1997
made a Daewoo Art's prototype out of Lucciola - the future Daewoo Matiz
Every 20-30 thousand kilometers, motors need extremely simple
- a screw with a lock nut - adjusting the clearances in the valve mechanism.
The timing belt is prescribed by the factory
renew every 80-90 thousand kilometers, but its cliffs, sentencing
a cylinder head for costly repairs is not uncommon. It is better
do not take risks and change the belt with rollers ahead of schedule - after 40-60 thousand
kilometers ($ 150 with work). And don't forget along with the timing belt
install the cooling system pump driven by it ($ 70) - until the next
he probably won't live. After five to six years of hassle with engines
can add oil leakage from "all cracks" - oil seals crack and
seals.
With unenviable regularity, sometimes after 15-20 thousand
kilometers, the diode bridge of the generators burns out ($ 120 with work).
Dismantling the generator from the cramped bowels of the engine compartment is difficult, and servicemen
often suggest lengthening the winding leads and transferring the diode bridge to
accessible place. But there is also a more civilized way to treat the disease -
replacement of "native" Delphi or Mando generators with more reliable units
produced by Valeo ($ 200-250).
In winter, small and weak staff
batteries that are not able to revive Matiz in severe frosts. Wires
for "lighting" in the trunk will definitely not be superfluous.
In 2001, simultaneously with the start of production in Uzbekistan Matiz
acquired a slightly retouched appearance and a four-cylinder engine.
In 2004, General Motors acquired an automobile
division of Daewoo, and Daewoo Matiz renamed to Chevrolet Matiz
(at the same time, the name of the vehicles of the Uzbek assembly has not changed). And with
In 2005, a refined Matiz appeared under the name Chevrolet Spark. Have
Sparka is a completely new salon with higher quality finishes and
centrally located instruments, Euro-4 engine and
more compact rear suspension. However, the reliability remained the same
level
Due to the tearing rubber "corrugation" the clutch cable sour
($ 30), already lacking in durability. If at the same time the smell
burnt friction lining of the driven disc ($ 60) notifies
incomplete engagement of the clutch, the resource of the latter will be halved, and
usually the clutch lasts 80-100 thousand kilometers.
The gear shift cables of the manual box also jam.
($ 80 per pair) - The drive gets tight and fuzzy. Over time,
"Mechanics", a trademark feature is manifested - the crunch of synchronizers when
fast switching down.
Automatic transmission Jatco, like "mechanics", will serve
150-200 thousand kilometers, and then its bulkhead will cost $ 1200.
It is interesting that the "machine" was installed only on Matiz with a weak
0.8 liter engine - with a larger four-cylinder
engine for it, there is simply no room under the hood. And since the end of 2008
Matiz with "automatic" are not supplied to us - "put" the motor with it in
Euro 3 requirements failed.
(by default the corrector is set to "92nd" petrol)
Matizs younger than 1999 also come with a V-belt variator in
transmissions, but we have only a few such machines from Europe or Korea. Their
purchase - a dubious option: it is unlikely to repair the variator
will succeed, but for a new one you will have to pay half the cost of a used
cars - $ 2500.
The suspension resource is also small. The first after 30-40 thousand kilometers from
adjustment-sensitive roller tapered
rear hub bearings ($ 16 each). Front double row ball bearings
($ 40 each) hold at least up to 60 thousand kilometers, but if you collect
small wheels all the holes on the road, they will have to be changed in the same way
often like the back. The same - and with integral from the front levers ($ 80)
ball bearings, which, with careful driving, have to be changed through
50-70 thousand kilometers. After the same mileage, it is usually required
update rack and pinion bushings and tie rod ends
($ 20) and the shocks ($ 70 front and $ 60 rear) can last up to
100 thousand kilometers.
By the way, new wheel bearings will also be needed during dismantling.
hubs for replacing weak wheel studs, which, with excessive
diligence easily breaks the thread.
And that's not it! New front bearings are needed after 60-80 thousand
kilometers when replacing worn out two sets of brake pads
discs ($ 50) that attach to the hub from the inside. And the rear bearings
may be needed even earlier - when replacing the combined into one
part with a brake drum hub ($ 70), poorly protected from
dust and dirt.
Because of this, many owners suffer in winter with freezing to
drums with rear pads, and after a couple of winters
return mobility to the automatic ratchet mechanism
the gap between the pads and the drum and replace jammed from corrosion
brake cylinders ($ 25 per piece).
Rust and body are not sparing. It is devoid of even partial galvanizing, and the quality of the Uzbek metal, like that of Nexia (AR No. 24, 2008),
raises doubts. Three to four years without additional anti-corrosion
processing and plastic wheel arch liners Matiz will hold out and then brown
stains will begin to show through the paint on the bottom, at the bottom of the doors and on the rear
wheel arches.
Surprisingly, the Matiz do not get cheaper quickly - 7-8% of
original price per year. That is, at the age of three to five years Matiz
are estimated at only 120-200 thousand rubles. About a third of all cars - with
automatic transmission, and they cost an average of 20 thousand
rubles more expensive.
Rare Korean-made cars, as a rule, are equipped with
anti-lock braking system and front airbags,
while "Spartan" equipped "Uzbek women" are often deprived of even
power steering, and "basic" cars older than 2005 -
cleaner and rear window heating. Such savings in security are not
why, especially considering the tendency of Matiz to fog up the windows.
