Today (April 9) in the capital Bosch Diesel Center underwent diagnostic famous Belarusian automobiles parties "Dakar-2012" - racing MAZ. Reporter visited Onliner.by diagnostic center, personally met with the device rally cars and even rolled on the ground navigator on test track in a car, which was launched in the "Dakar" at number 545.



Bosch and Minsk Automobile Plant have been cooperating for five years. During this time, employees of the German company tested 8 engine families for the Belarusian producer. Cooperation between the two brands began in 2007. Today, virtually all engines that are installed on serial MAZ, there are components of the German manufacturer.

Meets the needs of the Bosch plant in parts - is a variety of sensors, electronic engine control units, starters and generators, pumps, injectors and Common Rail system, and more. Also, the German brand is working with MAZ still on three fronts: adapting and testing the engines of the new generation units to the chassis of trucks involved in the testing of new models of MAZ and conducts training of plant personnel in the diagnosis and repair of motor vehicles

In the near future, Bosch will be the technical partner of a sports team MAZ. April 9, 2012 at the Diagnostic Center of diesel cars arrived two are the most common vehicle - a "battle" rally car MAZ-5309RR and so-called "technicals" - a car with a spare parts service, residential bay on the track and the necessary equipment. The task of vehicle maintenance - restoration of a race car in a short time.



"Technical Machine - this is actually a serial MAZ. He, unlike a race car has a 5-seater cabin and a different form of the body in which it has the necessary equipment to restore the combat vehicle. By the way, almost the same car used in the MOE, "- said Valery Kozlovsky Onliner.by - the head of a sports team" MAZ-SportAVTO "as well as co-driver of a racing car, which participated in the" Dakar-2012 ".



As for the battle (so it is called the staff of MAZ) of the car, he received a number of improvements. The first mass-produced cars from racing distinguish modified shock absorbers. By car tires Michelin (by the way, to "technicals" used tires Continental). Engine capacity from car racing - 18 liters. Power - about 900 liters. from. Fuel consumption on the highway - 50 liters per 100 km. During the race - about 120 liters per 100 kilometers. This is more than a liter per kilometer!

In recent years, sports team MAZ beginning to disturb the work of the motor vehicle dakarovskogo ("technicals"). For diagnosis, they turned to the Bosch Diesel Service Center that mostly deals with diagnosis and repair of commercial vehicles. The center's employees have suggested that the problem may be related to malfunctioning injectors. But after the diagnosis revealed that they are working as expected. "Well, let's look for the problem elsewhere. In the diagnosis of a racing car the main difficulty is that the pump, nozzles and other components of its engine - mechanical. This means you need to take turns and to check various details. In more modern engines all the easier - you can just connect the motor to the diagnostic equipment and to identify what the problem "- told us at the Center. After that we went to the training ground to test race racing MAZ!

We get to landfill we ring. "Charged" trucks aroused great interest on the part of drivers. Everyone tried to regroup, to drive around these "monsters." Many showed a thumbs-up through the windows. Some signals. 900-strong car in the race uniform really makes the heart beat faster. And even more often it starts beating, when the driver of MAZ presses the gas pedal. Black smoke escaping from pipes on the sides of the body, accompanied by an unforgettable roar.

So we drove up to the landfill. Of course, no one behind the wheel is not empty. I located on the site of the navigator, and photos - on-site mechanics. Climb in the truck race - not the simple action. With camera in hand it is not impossible to do. Pipes rollcage permeate the entire cabin. It turned out to be fastened in a rally MAZ also difficult. After 5 minutes of hard work to harness all of us comfortably in the sports seats with excellent lateral support. The driver stepped on the gas, and off we went!

Next minute of my life will be remembered for a long time. Racing truck easily passed the test site. At some points it seems that we are about to overturn, but no, MAZ tenacious "grasps" four wheels for the land, and we move on. A trip to the 900-strong sports truck can not be compared to any attraction.
