Illegal restrictions, called sanctions due to incomprehension and lack of training (the latter, in any case, only the UN has the right to impose), would, according to the idea of the anti-Russian states, already in the first months after their introduction.
However, hope for America, but make no mistake yourself: it suddenly turned out that the rural gas station turned out to be a shed, a warehouse and, very curiously, an extremely profitable market at the same time. The same cars in Russia are currently sold more expensively than in any country in the world, and at the same time they are very actively bought up. Scarcity!
Prices, which shot up a year earlier, are already beginning to calm down and fall globally: a can of motor oil, which cost at least 5,000 rubles last May, is now bought quite calmly for three, and if you look, it is even cheaper. Likewise – spare parts that have already entered en masse through parallel imports. Moreover, both privately and quite officially: distributors of “not completely disappeared” brands continue to carry consumables and repair parts, earning high profits. Business, just business.
It seems that one can exhale by pointing the middle finger strictly to the west, but there are problems: new sanctions packages impose difficulties on certain elements that are increasingly difficult to deliver to the Russian Federation. And until now it was not possible to produce in Russia: one part or another is missing.
The most obvious example is ATF, also known as gearbox oil, which is poured into gearboxes. The tenth round of sanctions has resulted in a ban on the compound needed to service cars, so suppliers have stocked warehouses and are preparing for a shortage.
On the sidelines, they honestly say that there will be enough atefka for next year, there will be no problems. But after that, very serious difficulties can arise, especially if Russian enterprises do not learn how to produce it domestically. Until now, this important event has not happened, because the oil companies do not have enough components that can no longer be imported from Europe and America. They tune, insure themselves with Chinese additives and set up production.
But it will take time to implement this plan: the logistics are very difficult. So it’s better to “lay straws” today and stock up on a couple of jerry cans of a suitable ATF: they don’t replace it very often, once every 60,000-75,000 km, so one full replacement volume is enough to comfortably wait for the shortage.
