"Ten" VAZ with an automatic transmission - what are the prospects?

Automatic transmission VAZ 2110

As you know, the automatic transmission of the VAZ 2110 is well designed. This box replaced the outdated manual transmission and it is the automatic gearbox for the VAZ 2110 that is today a successful design solution by engineers. Let's find out what the principle of operation of this box on a VAZ 2110 is and how to repair it, if necessary.

Is it necessary to install an automatic transmission on a VAZ 2110?

Having studied the arguments presented above, we can say that an automatic transmission in a VAZ would be very useful. Its presence would add advantages to cars produced by the domestic automotive sector. It should be noted here that Russian car owners do not always have enough money to repair their car. The presence of an automatic transmission will make repair work even more expensive. That is why engineers working at Russian automobile industry enterprises should work out the design in detail so that it acquires the necessary degree of reliability.

The installation of automatic gearboxes on cars produced is necessary, if only for the reason that a negative stereotype has developed in relation to domestic cars. Many people refuse to buy Russian cars, citing the fact that such models are not reliable enough, which is not always true. Perhaps the machine will fit the VAZ if the design is worked out in detail. This will help break down negative stereotypes.

Even the developers admit that installing an automatic transmission is necessary. They refer to the fact that foreign competing firms are increasingly pushing Russian products out of the market. At the same time, most of the potential buyers of Russian cars are people living in large cities. In a metropolis, driving a car equipped with a manual automatic transmission is accompanied by continuous movement of the lever to change from one gear to another. This is not very convenient for the vast majority of owners. This is one of the reasons why it is worth upgrading the usual design. A VAZ 2110 with automatic transmission could compete with foreign cars that are popular among Russians.

In fact, the company has already made attempts to improve the technology. The first attempt brought a positive result, which was highly appreciated. An experiment to introduce the new product was carried out with the participation of the Nadezhda minivan. However, the matter ended with the creation of single copies. Serial production was never established.

What prevents you from installing an automatic rifle from Kalina?

Many car enthusiasts are perplexed why the new Priora 2014 cannot be equipped with an automatic transmission from Kalina? After all, this gearbox has proven itself quite well, and the manufacturer Jatco is also listed among Japanese automakers. The bottom line is that Priora is a fundamentally new development by VAZ. If, for example, “Kalina” and “ten” are largely unified, then here you can see a completely different layout. To install a Jatco box on a Priora, half of the car would have to be redone, and first of all the body. By modifying the body parts, you can significantly reduce the structural rigidity, and the transmission mount itself, most likely, would not be very reliable.

The new robotic AMT gearbox is made in almost the same housing as the manual transmission, so there are no problems with its installation in the Priora body. Only 2 additional brackets are required for installation. Thanks to this, it was possible to achieve a minimal difference in price.

We can only hope that the AMT gearbox will not be much inferior in reliability to the Jatco.

Gearbox 2110, how to install the gearbox after repair

The gearbox should be installed in the reverse order of removal. As you can see, the work is not easy and time-consuming, but it is quite possible to do it yourself, following exactly the instructions described above.

In order for the gearbox to serve for a long time, it is necessary to operate it correctly, in particular:

1. Don't start with a slip.
2. When changing gears, depress the clutch all the way.
3. Shift gears sequentially.
4. Change your oil promptly, using only one specific brand.

It is worth noting that when the first signs of a gearbox malfunction are detected, the breakdown should be diagnosed as quickly as possible and then repaired or replaced. It is not recommended to operate the vehicle if the gearbox is faulty.

Before removing the VAZ 2110 gearbox, it is necessary to determine that the unit has failed. You can understand the problems by the following characteristic symptoms:

• knocking noises are heard from the device;
• the noise increases when turning;
• the box vibrates;
• spontaneous switching off of gears occurs;
• changing gears has become difficult or impossible.

There's just a little time left before mass production

What is the 2014 Priora with AMT? This is a regular car with a robotic cable transmission. It is expected that it will not be very expensive, and compared to a manual transmission, you will not have to pay a huge amount extra for an AMT. The difference will be about 20,000 rubles. As for the design, the box was “licked” from one of the Japanese cars and modified to fit the Lada. It is noteworthy that the clutch on the Lada Priora with AMT is installed in Germany from ZF. This company produces transmission units for famous European car brands, so for most car enthusiasts this is good news.

Firstly, there was pride in a completely Russian development, because there had been no domestic “automatic machines” since the days of the 21st Volga and Chaika. Secondly, the 2014 Priora with a traditional automatic transmission is more convenient to use for most drivers.

Changing the oil

According to the documentation, the lubricant component in VAZ 2110 engines and transmissions must be changed every 15 thousand kilometers or at least once a year.

So, we need to warm up the engine well and prepare the required oil and, preferably, a new oil filter, as well as the tools necessary for the job.

gearbox housing 2110

To drain the waste, you will need to unscrew the plug from the oil pan. Next, within 10-15 minutes, the oil is drained into a special container, which will need to be prepared in advance. Then the drain plug returns to its original position and is screwed tightly. Now you can replace the old oil filter with a new one (if necessary).

Now that the old oil has been drained, pay attention to its color and presence of inclusions. If the oil is dark brown in color and to the touch contains various types of inclusions such as metal dust or pieces of dirt, then the transmission will need to be flushed

For this purpose, special solutions are used, which are poured into the engine and gearbox before new oil. In this case, you will need to drive the car with such a solution for a short time and not quickly, five minutes along the garage will be enough, and then drain the mixture and the dirt that it has collected in the same way as described for the process of draining the “working off”.

In order to fill with fresh oil, you will need to remove the filler cap. In this case, from 3 to 4 liters of oil are poured into the engine, depending on the readings of the dipstick. Ideally, the oil level is between the min. marks. and max.

These marks are marked on the dipstick as the minimum and maximum values. Next, you will need to start the engine and wait until the oil light (or oil pressure light) goes out. After this, turn off the engine, check the oil level and, if necessary, remove excess or add more oil.

There are times when the light bulb just won't go off. In such cases, it is better to check the quality of the oil filter or replace it if it was not changed during the replacement process.

Vehicle characteristics with manual transmission and automatic transmission (CVT) comparison

If we talk about the characteristics and performance of two cars of the tenth family, with a CVT and a manual transmission, then: Acceleration to 100 km/h - there is no difference in time. Acceleration at 400 m - the CVT wins by 0.2 seconds. Acceleration at 1000 m - the CVT wins by 1.1 seconds. Acceleration from 60 to 100 km/h (manual transmission - 3rd gear, CVT - “D”) - again the CVT wins by 1, 25 seconds. Maximum speed - here the “mechanics” turned out to be faster by 4.2 seconds. Fuel consumption - tests have not been carried out, but theoretically the CVT should reduce gasoline consumption.

Peculiarities

The design of the unit allows, during acceleration (pedal to the floor), to constantly maintain engine speed corresponding to maximum power, and the speed is gained by smoothly, steplessly changing the gear ratio. And with any manual transmission, the engine is forced to operate more often in less favorable transient conditions. Therefore, theoretically, a car with a CVT can accelerate faster than with a manual transmission.

To prevent sudden braking on the drive wheels from causing a skid on a slippery road, use speed braking. On a manual transmission this process is known to everyone, but on a CVT it has some peculiarities.

In Drive mode, the variator perceives the released gas pedal as a signal to shift to the highest gear, so the car practically does not brake with the engine. But if you switch to Low mode, everything changes. The CVT shifts to slightly higher gear ratios (“low gears”) and continues to hold them when the throttle is released, helping to increase engine braking efficiency. Thus, if you move the lever from “D” to “L” right on the move, engine braking will begin very smoothly and with a noticeable delay. The well-known transmission company ZF bought one of the Van Doorne Transmissie enterprises in Belgium and began producing CVTs by order of BMW for Rover and MG cars, and then for the new Mini.

Car acceleration

Acceleration of the car is accompanied by the monotonous sound of the engine running at the same speed, which causes the feeling of a burnt out clutch. That is why, for some, this causes hostility towards CVTs. But the CVT VAZ is free of this drawback. Up to 3000 rpm, even with the gas pedal fully pressed, the engine spins up almost synchronously with the acceleration. It feels like acceleration occurs in one, smoothly increasing gear. And after overcoming this milestone, a sudden increase in revolutions occurs, which is accompanied by a noticeable increase in acceleration - as if a classic stepped automatic transmission was under the hood and the Kick-down mode was activated. To install the CVT on the VAZ, one of the mounting points of the internal combustion engine had to be moved to the body.

Despite this, vibrations have become noticeably less. If with a “mechanics” the engine skips at the moment of starting, which causes shaking, then with a variator this effect is noticeable to a much lesser extent. The speed is maintained automatically and drops less frequently into the “critical” zone.

Dismantling the VAZ 2110 gearbox

In order to remove the VAZ 2110 gearbox, you need to choose the right workplace. Such work should be carried out on a lift or a deep, at least one and a half meters, inspection hole. Consistently, removal of the VAZ 2110 gearbox should begin with the engine mudguard. Having done this, it is necessary to disconnect the drive and reaction thrust from the dismantled unit. Then we free the gearbox cavity from the aggregate oil present there, having previously prepared a reservoir for the drained fluid.

Next, using a wrench or a socket with a “10” wrench, we free the bottom cover of the clutch housing from the three bolts holding it, which must later be removed. After this, we dismantle the “front end” drive on the right side, and close the vacated hole with a plug made of a wooden base or insert a rubber hose, for example, a hose from the heating system.

We go to the other side and dismantle the front drive on the left side in the same order. Then we release the clutch cable from its fastening on the “mechanics”, remove the ground wire from the battery and free the starter by unscrewing the bolts securing it to the flywheel housing. We disconnect the reverse lighting connector at the gearbox from the wiring going to the rear of the car. Disconnect the speedometer cable. Using a wrench or a socket with a 17mm wrench, unscrew the bracket fastening nut and remove this rigging part.

To immobilize the “tens”, we install a thrust device under the engine, and the left cushion of the VAZ 2110 box must be removed, and then the rear one. When completing work such as removing the VAZ 2110 box, use a wrench or a 19mm socket to unscrew the 3 bolts and nut securing the clutch housing to the engine block. After this, carefully remove the unit and remove it.

Disassembling the gearbox

In the situations described above, a simple gearbox adjustment will be sufficient. This is much better than repairing the VAZ 2110 gearbox, disassembling and assembling the gearbox.

Procedure for disassembling the gearbox:

1. Remove the oil indicator from the gearbox. Unscrew the bolts that hold the clutch cable.
2. Unscrew the bolts that hold the back cover. The lid is hermetically sealed, so when removing it, you can use a hammer.
3. To prevent the shafts from turning while disassembling the gearbox, turn on the third or fourth speed. Then unscrew the bolt that secures the fifth gear.
4. Remove the fifth gear and fork together.
5. Afterwards, remove the gear from the secondary shaft and the fork. Then remove the plate that protects the bearings.

Having started repairing the VAZ 2110 gearbox, after all the steps described above, it is necessary to disassemble the crankcase and the operating mechanism. Let's get started:

1. We unscrew the spring plugs that hold the gear rods. Once the plugs are unscrewed, the end balls will fall out of the holes. We do the same with the plug that holds the reverse gear. If the balls have not fallen out of the holes, you can get them out using a magnetic screwdriver.
2. Next, we unscrew the bolts that secure the gearbox housing to the clutch housing. After the bolts are unscrewed, you can use a screwdriver to disconnect the crankcases.
3. Next step. Unscrew the rod from the first and second gear fork.
4. We do the same with gears third, fourth and fifth, respectively. To remove the rod, it must be removed together with the gear shift parts.
5. You need to remove the axle from the reverse gear and, of course, the gear.
6. Next, take out the differential and two shafts with gears. Unscrew the three bolts that secure the gear mechanism and remove it from the crankcase.
7. Unscrew the rear lever bolt and remove the rod.
8. If necessary, remove the bearings of the primary and secondary shafts with a separator.

Dismantling of the VAZ 2110 gearbox has been completed.

Tuning the VAZ 2109 transmission

The classic transmission of all VAZs is manual. It is quite reliable, cheap to maintain and well suited for use on domestic roads.

Upgraded car

There are several popular types of tuning for manual transmissions. They appeared as a banal need to improve the performance of the car. The main work packages include:

Let's take a closer look at one of the tuning options. Replacing the rocker with a short-throw one is a useful tuning that will significantly simplify gear shifting. We all know that the lever of the “nine” and most other VAZ cars is absolutely inconvenient. It has a huge backlash, which simply has a terrible effect on the accuracy of gear shifting. If men with long hands can still cope with it without any critical effort, then women will have a very difficult time with it.

The easiest way out of the situation is to install a short-stroke cardan from the Lada Kalina on the 2109. Such tuning will cost you approximately 1,500 rubles. Along with the cardan, you will have to get a boot from the same model, because it won’t be original with it.

The necessary tools for work are a set of keys, a slotted screwdriver and a hammer. It will also be very good to have an assistant.

Pro tips, driver actions after gearbox repair

First of all, the starter and battery are removed. Then you should drain the oil from the device. Next we perform the following steps:

First you have to disconnect the clutch cable. This should not cause any difficulties, because here it is enough to loosen the two nuts and then remove the cable; unscrew the fastening nuts, and then remove the cable from the box bracket; we compress the spring clips, after which we disconnect the wires from the speed sensor; Next, you should unscrew a couple of bolts, thanks to which the box is attached to the power unit; we are engaged in unscrewing the fastenings of the VAZ 2110 gearbox, which connects the box to the ignition; then the jet rod is removed (we unscrew the fastening bolts, loosen the clamp, and then pull the rod back); dismantle the left wheel drive (the right one can be left in place); then the bolts that are located on the steering knuckle, as well as in the lower right part of the box, are unscrewed. The bracket nut, clutch housing bolts and the left lower mounting bolt are also unscrewed; at this stage you can already get the power unit

It is important to secure it well so that it does not interfere with work and is not damaged; We dismantle the extreme fastenings; then we proceed to unscrew the two nuts of the rear engine mount; We begin to shift the gearbox from the guide bushings. Here it is worth holding it a little so that the unit does not fall; When we move the box as far as possible to the left, it will be possible to completely remove the device from the vehicle.

Common gearbox problems

The problem concerns the first gear speed. It turns on very hard, there is an extraneous sound when changing gears, the speed drops while driving.

The reasons may be the following:

• The synchronizer may have failed.
• The retainer spring has burst or has a defect.
• Speeds may change independently due to the weakening of the lever.
• The problem is in the stem or fork. They need to be replaced.

The next problem concerns second gear. Most often, car enthusiasts are faced with the fact that the second speed jumps out or difficulties arise when turning it on.

The following reasons may lie behind this:

• The gear teeth are worn out, as a result of which they do not cling well to the gear shift clutch. In this case, it is necessary to repair the VAZ 2110 gearbox. In the future, this may cause the transmission to crash.
• If the transmission slips out exclusively when driving over bumps, then we can say with confidence that the reason for this is a problem with the clutch.

The occurrence of extraneous noise in the gearbox may be due to bearings that have failed. In order to find out, you need to check the play of the roller bearings that are installed in the clutch housing, and the rolling bearings located on the primary and secondary shafts.

You need to check the forks and gear rods very carefully. These parts tend to deteriorate very quickly. If there are any obvious signs of wear on these mechanisms, then they need to be replaced immediately with new ones. You can buy these parts at auto stores.

If a car enthusiast has a little experience in repairing a VAZ 2110 gearbox, then he can safely carry out repair work on the gearbox on his own. From this article it is clear that this is not so difficult to do. Even a car owner, without sufficient experience and skills, can cope with this problem.

Installing an automatic transmission instead of a manual transmission on a VAZ 2110

Since KB VAZ does not have its own automatic transmission model, the German ZF continuously variable variator is used as an automatic transmission. The principle of operation of such a unit is based on the operation of a V-belt type transmission with the difference that both pulleys are of a split type. When converging or diverging, the segments change the depth of the stream, and the drive belt rotates at different radii. By changing the radii of rotation, the gear ratio also changes.

There is nothing complicated about installing this foreign equipment. All that was required was the manufacture of a special insert between the engine and the clutch housing, and the VAZ 2110 engine mount, which is attached to a manual gearbox, was also transferred. In the cabin, the gearshift lever was replaced with an automatic transmission selector.

With this modification of the transmission, the choice has become smaller; in addition to parking, neutral, reverse and the actual forward movement of the car, the braking mode of the power plant has been preserved, which distinguishes the CVT from other automatic transmissions and operates quite effectively.

In this position of the automatic transmission selector, the variator selects an extremely high gear ratio, operating in the “low” gear mode and continues to hold it when the accelerator is released. To prevent blocking of wheel travel, stage switching is done softly and smoothly, with some delay. When passing dynamic tests and during operation, the unit showed a sufficient degree of reliability.

VAZ-2112 with ZF variator

Instead of a manual transmission lever, an automatic transmission mode selector is installed, and there is no clutch pedal.

The weight of the VAZ 2112 after installing the variator increased by 15 kg. The variator is installed in place of the standard manual transmission through a special spacer. It is designed to transmit torque up to 145 Nm and works without problems at 130 Nm, which is developed by a 16kL 1.5L engine.

All non-standard parts required for installation were manufactured at aviation enterprises. Until the engine is warmed up, turning on the “Drive” mode is accompanied by a noticeable push from the closed clutches. And after releasing the brake pedal, the “twelfth” suddenly moves forward briskly. After the engine warms up, the picture changes and returns to normal; the car no longer has to be held with the brakes.
