As everyone knows, any vehicle requires periodic maintenance. The procedure when contacting an authorized dealer guarantees high quality work, although it may cost more than in other car services. Let us consider in more detail what TO-2 is, the list of works included in it, the difference from TO-1 and other features.

General information

When passing the technical inspection, regulated, control and inspection work is carried out, including diagnostics and adjustment manipulations of vehicle components on special stands. The entire list of TO-2 works is aimed at checking the main components of the vehicle. In addition, the operation involves examining the state of the machine and carrying out a number of additional manipulations. For example, it can be an oil or filter change. Carrying out such operations does not take much time, but it allows you to add reliability to your car.

TO-2 Kia Rio

The work list for this machine includes the following:

• Change engine oil and oil filter.
• Lubrication of door elements,trunk and hood cover.
• Brake Fluid Update.
• Checking the exhaust system.
• Prevention of the air filter nozzle, drive system, gearbox.
• Control of steering, tire pressure, lighting system, air conditioning, belt drive of additional units.
• Cleaning the flow unit filter and body drain holes.

The TO-2 Kia Rio is being carried out, the list of works for which is indicated above, after a run of 30 thousand kilometers.

Volkswagen Polo

The regulation is valid for all cars of this brand produced since 2010. The provision applies to models with a 1.6 liter engine equipped with a manual or automatic transmission. The manufacturer advises to pass inspection only in the service center. If you decide to carry out the operation yourself, carefully read the instruction manual.

It can be noted that the oil in the gearbox is filled with the calculation of the entire working period and cannot be replaced. Checking its level should be carried out every 30 thousand kilometers (manual transmission) or 60 thousand in the presence of an automatic transmission.

Below is a list of works TO-2 "Polo Sedan":

• Change oil, filter and cabin analogue.
• Checking ventilation systems, connecting hoses, cooling unit.
• Check fuel lines and fittings.
• Prevention of suspension and fasteners.
• Checking the status of tire pressure and lean anglewheels.
• In addition, the battery, parking brake, light elements, spark plugs, drain holes and closing parts are inspected.

Additionally, the list of works TO-2 "Polo Sedan" includes the replacement of the air filter element, brake fluid, checking the drive belt of mounted and additional units. An inspection is carried out every 30 thousand kilometers or after two years of operation.

Hyundai

The second inspection period for this car is carried out after 30 thousand kilometers. An oil change is in progress, as well as a number of other operations:

• Checking the main components, including the brake system and gearbox.
• Valve and engine diagnostics.
• Replacing the fuel and oil filter.
• Checking belt drives.
• Monitoring the condition and quantity of refrigerant.

Manufacturers recommend carrying out TO-2 "Solaris", the list of works of which is indicated above, at branded stations. It is worth noting the main verification codes. Among them: I (checking assemblies, parts and consumables), R (replacing required items).

Useful information

It is advisable to carry out the next maintenance of any car in authorized or partner service centers. This will not affect the cost, but you get a guarantee for the work performed. In reality, you can be serviced at any service station, but in this case, if there are disputes, the dealer will have to prove the quality of the work performed.

When is it necessary to do TO-1? For example, TO-2 is carried out after 30 thousand kilometers or 2 years of using a vehicle (applies to most cars). Therefore, the first inspection must be carried out a year earlier, or after 15 thousand mileage. If the car has driven less than 15,000 km in a year, it is also advisable to do an inspection in order to avoid serious breakdowns and failure of key parts.

In addition, owners should periodically check the level of brake fluid, oil, antifreeze, tire pressure and other points related to driving safety.

TO-2 Skoda: list of works

For this car, this process is similar to other cars of the same class. The service station performs the following operations:

• Replacing brake fluid.
• Change the atmospheric filter after driving over 60,000 kilometers in 24 months.
• Checking the condition of tires.
• Control and lubrication of active elements of doors, hood and trunk.
• Replacing the oil filter. If the mileage exceeds 60 thousand km on gasoline and 100 thousand kilometers on diesel power plants.
• Check spark plugs.
• Diagnosis of the level of other working fluids, the condition of the battery and seat belts.

Timing

TO-1, TO-2, the list of works and the frequency of which vary, require special attention from the owners. Manufacturers recommend passing the first technical inspection no later than one year after the operation of the machine or the raid 15thousand kilometers. The second check should be made two years after the purchase of the vehicle or after reaching 30 thousand kilometers.

The specific timing of the technical inspection depends on the personal way of driving the driver and the operating conditions of the car. For example, driving short distances does not affect the wear of parts as actively as driving long distances at maximum loads. It is important to know that the brake fluid must in any case be renewed at least once every two years. If this moment is ignored, the brake assembly may fail, which is fraught with an emergency traffic situation.

Notes

TO-2 of the car, the list of works of which is indicated above, requires compliance with certain rules specified by the manufacturer. Information on the category of the type of oil used can be found in the instruction manual. The recommended grade and type of this oil product is also given there. When performing a technical inspection, special attention must be paid to replacing not only the oil, but also its filter element.

In addition, it is worth checking the thickness of the brake pads. Especially if the car was used with extreme driving style. It is also desirable to check the reset of the service interval indicator and the compliance of the condensate drain from the fuel and air filters.

Lada

In T0-2 Kalina, the list of works consists of the following operations:

• Checkpointstroubleshooting work in the fuel, brake and propulsion systems.
• Prevention regulated processes.
• Diagnosis and adjustment of the main components of the car.
• Checking the performance of the brake elements.
• Changing and replenishing oil and brake fluid.

Features

For the domestic car "Lada Kalina" TO-2, the list of works for which is indicated above, plays an important role, given the condition of the roads and the method of operation. Maintenance, in accordance with the established regulations, allows you to extend the working life of vehicle components and ensure the safety of movement. Many elementary work can be done independently, following the recommendations specified in the instruction manual.

The frequency of technical checks for Lada Kalina is provided every 15 thousand kilometers. For the foreign Volkswagen Polo sedan, TO-2 (list of works) is almost identical, with the exception of checking different types of engines and gearboxes. The average cost of an inspection at a branded service station for a public car is about seven and a half thousand rubles. Additionally, you will have to spend money on consumables, if necessary.

Choosing and changing oil

All passenger cars with a variable frequency of inspection at the factory fill with special engine oil. Consider the features on the example of a Skoda car. This indicator has the followingpositions:

• For petrol power units - VW-503.
• For diesel engines with particulate filtration - VW-506 01.
• For other engines - VW-507 00.

The use of these types of oil allows you to ensure the most correct use of the vehicle, as well as reduce maintenance costs.

If the factory stock of oil is not enough, it is replaced once a year or when the mileage is set to 15 thousand kilometers. For the correct operation of all systems, it will be necessary to recode the machine for specific periods of service inspection intervals. Details can be clarified with a representative of an official service station. The manufacturer recommends in any case to change the engine oil every 15 thousand kilometers, to conduct a second inspection after two years of operation or a 30 thousandth run. Brake fluid needs to be changed every couple of years.

If the car is equipped with a diesel power unit with a high sulfur content, the oil change period is reduced to seven and a half thousand kilometers, which is due to the design features of the engine.

Other maintenance

Depending on the age of the car and the mileage traveled, not only mandatory MOT-1, 2, 3 are carried out, the list of works of which we will consider below, but also subsequent checks, up to the tenth inspection.

The first technical inspection includes work on the replacement of fuels and lubricants and the processing of fixingelements. The following manipulations can also be carried out:

• Replacing the oil filter kit.
• Lubrication of gearbox parts.
• Check exhaust, brake, steering system.
• Steering control.
• Measuring tire pressure.
• Checking lights and battery.

• implies a small amount of work to replace fuel and lubricants and components, as well as lubricate components.

Inspection also includes cleaning the drainage holes in the body, replacing the brake fluid, identifying possible factory defects.

The parameters of the second maintenance have been discussed above. Next, we will study the features of subsequent operations in terms of timing and opportunities.

Mileage inspection period

The Volkswagen car (TO-2, the list of works is indicated in the article), requires regular follow-up checks, like most types of vehicles. Among the technical inspections, we note the following:

• TO-3 is carried out after 45 thousand kilometers, includes work typical for the first inspection.
• TO-4 is performed after four years of vehicle operation or 60 thousand kilometers. The inspection includes the work provided for the first and second inspections, as well as the replacement of spark plugs, checking the condition of the timing chain or belt drive mechanism, checking the tensioner and oil pump device.
• TO-5 is an analogue of the first technicalservice, carried out after 75 thousand kilometers.
• TO-6 - after 90 thousand km, work is performed similar to TO-1 and 2.
• TO-7, 8, 9, 10 are produced after 105, 120, 135 and 150 thousand kilometers, respectively.

Adjustment for the life of the car

As experts advise, the refrigerant should be replaced at least once every 3-5 years. In the process, a complete replacement of the coolant or its replenishment to the desired level is performed. For example, Volkswagen Polo cars are filled with purple refrigerant type G-12 Plus. The liquid can be mixed with analogues G-12 and G-1. When mixing solutions, the proportion 1/1 is observed. The total volume of the system is about six liters.

According to the official car service regulations, the oil in the gearbox is designed for the entire life of the vehicle. When performing maintenance, only its level is controlled, and the period of the next check should not exceed 30 thousand kilometers for a manual transmission and 60,000 for an automatic transmission.

The manual unit holds two liters of gear oil type SAE 75W-85 (API GL-4), and the automatic unit - about seven liters of synthetic analogue of the ATF brand (G055025A2).

In closing

Technical inspection of a vehicle is a guarantee of traffic safety on the road. The car must be carefully checked every time before leaving for the serviceability of the brakes, the integrity of the tubes and hoses, and the tire pressure indicator. In addition, it shouldundergo a professional inspection of the car, which is carried out at the service station. For most "cars" it is carried out after every 15 thousand kilometers or 1-2 years of operation.

In addition to the technical condition, do not forget about the cleanliness of the "iron horse". This improves not only the aesthetic appearance, but also allows you to protect the body from corrosion and deformation. It is necessary to timely monitor the level of working car fillers, including oil, brake and coolant. By following these recommendations and the advice of the instruction manual, you can not only extend the working life of the machine, but also protect yourself and other road users.
