Priora has earned its respect among fans of the domestic auto industry. One of the latest VAZ models, in many respects surpasses the previously produced analogs. Modern models produced by a domestic manufacturer have higher specifications and are more comfortable. In Lada Priora, many errors inherent in classic VAZ models have been eliminated. Today, the automotive industry is constantly developing and the Russian manufacturer is trying to keep up with the times. Lada priora largely complies with European quality standards for car production. At the same time, the popularity of the car in question among the inhabitants of our country is explained by a relatively simple and understandable device. Just like the previously produced VAZ models, Lada Priora is simple and unpretentious in maintenance. Spare parts for a modern VAZ are distinguished by their low cost and interchangeability.
Most of the owners of domestic cars are used to repairing and servicing cars with their own hands. Possibility self service is undoubtedly one of the most striking advantages of our vehicles. Of course, compared to earlier models, the operation VAZ Lada Priora requires much less attention in the course of life. But, like any other car, a modern VAZ has its own weak sides.
As the statistics reflected in the repair manual show, the owners of Lada Priora often encounter the same malfunctions, such as oil in candle wells. Thus, automotive experts have identified the vulnerabilities of the modern VAZ. Knowing what to look for during operation vehicle, you can significantly extend the service life of the most important systems and components of the car.
Each element of the vehicle system has a certain service life. Without interfering with the device, the car successfully functions for a certain period. As you know, the most important aggregate of any car is the propulsion system. Any engine has its own resource. The resource of the motor system, in turn, depends on the competent and regular maintenance... The Priora motor has a fairly long service life and will last a long period even without the intervention of a motorist.
Optics
In order to extend the life of the engine system and the life of the car as a whole, it is necessary to pay attention to the level and condition of the working mixtures in a timely manner. Working trains play an important role in the correct and long-term functioning of the most important components of the vehicle. During the operation of the vehicle, the working fluids prevent a large load on the engine, thereby increasing the transfer of its operation. With long-term use of the car, working mixtures gradually lose their properties. The use of used formulations leads to premature wear of the working components of the system. Among the most important fluids in the vehicle system are: engine oil, brake fluid, coolant.
The frequency of replacement of these formulations is determined by the manufacturer. It should be understood that the frequency of replacing engine oil and coolant largely depends on the intensity and operating conditions of the car. Accordingly, if the car is often used in difficult climatic conditions, the frequency of replacement of working trains increases.
In addition to working fluid, the resource of the propulsion system is also affected by the state of consumables, including: rubber seals, clamps, pipes, etc. Consumables must be replaced with new ones as they wear out. Thus, it is possible to reduce the load on the working elements of the most important auto systems.
The engine system installed on the Lada Priora is considered to be a new generation of engines that are equipped with domestic cars... A significant difference between the first Priora and the previously produced models during the operation of the VAZ was a new device for the propulsion system. The first Priora was equipped with a pair of valves per cylinder, which did not require ignition adjustment. Subsequent Priora models had a propulsion system equipped with four valves per cylinder. Depending on the features of the device of the propulsion system, the conditions for the use and maintenance of a car differ.
Councils for the operation of the vehicle.
Compliance with certain rules allows you to achieve a longer service life of the propulsion system, regardless of the features of its structure, due to the new design valve stem seals... Strictly observing the rules of operation, the owner of the vehicle extends the service life of the vehicle without major repairs. Thus, we can say that timely service is one of the most effective saving methods for every motorist.
According to the manufacturer, Priora is one of the representatives of a new generation of domestic cars. It should be borne in mind that the average build quality Russian cars is in many ways inferior to foreign counterparts. Therefore, even the new Priora requires some operations to optimize the operation of the most important systems. The purchased car should be subjected to initial maintenance before using it.
Primary Maintenance Lada Priora is to diagnose all connections. If insufficient fixation is found, the tightness of all fasteners should be restored.In most cases, a car that came off the VAZ conveyor has insufficient tension attachments and poor tightness of the conductors of the engine system. Special attention should be paid to the power system, the cooling system and the gas distribution mechanism. After the initial maintenance, you can start operating the vehicle. When passing the first 1000 km of run, it is necessary to pay attention to the state of the serviced units in a timely manner.
Salon
As already mentioned, the quality of the working fluid greatly affects the resource of the motor. The engine oil is of insufficient quality, has weak protective properties and poorly prevents friction of the working elements of the internal combustion engine. In this regard, the use of low quality engine oil inevitably leads to premature wear of engine elements, and in winter and to the failure of the VAZ starter.
Priora is equipped with injection system supply, therefore it is necessary to pay due attention to the quality of the fuel mixture used. Gasoline, containing a large amount of impurities, leads to premature wear of injectors and mass air flow sensor. In addition, the use of low-quality gasoline leads to an uneven function of the propulsion system, which also adversely affects the engine resource. Regardless of the quality of the fuel mixture used, in order to increase the resource of the internal combustion engine, it is recommended to promptly flush fuel system.
To the surprise of many vehicle owners, the manner in which the vehicle is driven has a great influence on the engine resource. Aggressive driving style leads to increased wear of the cylinder-piston group. Thus, with a calm and measured ride, the vehicle owner removes himself from major repairs.
Frequent VAZ problems
Let's consider the most vulnerable places of the VAZ car engine system using the example of Lada Priora.
During the operation of the Lada Priora vehicle, the owners of the car identified the weaknesses of the internal combustion engine. The owners of the Lada Priora noted the lack of reliability of the liquid pump. During the operation of a modern VAZ, the pump function is often disrupted. As you know, a malfunction of a liquid pump can lead to serious consequences and can entail considerable financial costs for car repairs. Therefore, it is recommended to pay attention to the readings of the temperature analyzer in a timely manner. A breakdown of the pump inevitably leads to an increase in the load on the motor system. Overheating of the motor is a complex breakdown; it is much easier to notice a pump malfunction in time.
Also, the owners of Lada Priora, when trying to repair vases with their own hands, often note a violation of the tightness of the radiator at the junction. In the event that traces of the working fluid appear in the adhesion areas, it is necessary to quickly begin to restore the tightness of the element.
Another weak point of the Lada Priora is the timing roller. To identify the malfunction of the video, you can notice the uncharacteristic soundtrack when the engine is running. In most cases, when a hum appears, the roller should be replaced. If you encounter a malfunction of the timing roller on the way, you should generously lubricate the element before servicing.
Also, a common malfunction that priors owners face is oil leakage from under the valve cover. In the event of a leak, the cover seal must be replaced. The VAZ stove also often becomes the cause of the driver's frustration in winter at low air temperatures.
Service of the Lada Priora engine.
Subject to the conditions of use, the frequency of repair of the propulsion system corresponds to that specified by the manufacturer. According to the manufacturer's plant Lada Priora, the engine of the car must be serviced every 15,000 km. When buying a new vehicle, the first maintenance is recommended after 3000 km of run. During maintenance, it is necessary to check the tightness of all connections, as well as change the oil and the filter element.
After passing a mileage of 30,000 km, it is necessary to diagnose in detail the ignition system and, if necessary, replace the spark plugs. At the same stage of maintenance, it is necessary to replace the filter elements of the power system. Immediately, you need to check the condition of the timing roller. If necessary, the timing drive is also tensioned. It is recommended to view the condition of the candle wells every 15 thousand kilometers.
After completing a mileage of 60,000 km, it is necessary to replace the generator drive and spark plugs.
During the operation of Priora, it is necessary to pay attention to the state of the sensors of the auto system in a timely manner. As you know, the formation of an optimal fuel-air mixture and the correct operation of the propulsion system is largely determined by the serviceability of the sensors.
Compliance with the rules of use and timely diagnostics of Lada Priora will increase the engine resource and postpone large-scale repairs. Timely replacement of consumables and working fluids will avoid unforeseen costs for vehicle repairs.
Good luck with operation and maintenance!
The Lada motor requires careful handling
Each power unit has a certain period of its operation without significant interference in its design, this is the so-called engine resource. This concept applies to all power units, including.
The resource of the engine depends on many factors. Any motor, even without partial intervention, will work for a short time. To extend its service life, periodic replacement of working fluids and elements is required, which, due to their load, wear out very quickly. In the people, operations to replace fluids and wear items are called "replacement of consumables."
Engines that are installed on the Priora are considered a new generation of power units mounted on domestic cars... A feature of the first units installed on the Priora, in contrast to subsequent generations, was that they had 2 valves for each cylinder. Subsequent engines were already equipped with 4 valves per cylinder. Each of these engines has specific operating and maintenance conditions.
Operating rules
Problem areas of the engine
The owners of Priora during the operation have identified several weak points at the engine:
| Weakness | Description |
| Liquid | Often this element fails. And if the driver did not pay attention to the readings of the temperature sensor in time, a pump breakdown will lead to serious consequences. Power point will quickly overheat and jam. To then bring it into a working condition, you will have to grind the cylinders and replace the piston group. |
| Radiator | Often, leaks appear in the places of adhesions, they should be immediately eliminated. |
| Timing Belt Tensioner | If, while the engine is running on the Priora, a hum appears under the hood in the area of the timing belt cover, you should immediately take action. If a hum appears during a long trip, you can restore the roller to work with abundant lubrication. But this will not help for a long time, the video will still have to be changed. |
If you ignore the hum, then this will lead to the fact that, due to the increased load, the timing belt will fly off or break. This will result in bent valves and overhaul engine.
Often Priora owners complain about oil leakage from under the cover valve train... This problem is corrected by replacing the cover gasket.
Powertrain maintenance
The frequency of maintenance of the Priora engine by the manufacturer is 15 thousand km. The first service is recommended to be carried out after 3 thousand km. The main attention should be paid to checking all attachment points of the attachment. During the same service, the first oil and oil filter change is carried out. If the engine is 8-valve, it is worth checking the valve clearances. For a 16-valve engine, this measure is not needed, since this power unit hydraulic lifters are installed. Similar work is carried out after 15 thousand km.
After reaching a value of 30 thousand km on the odometer, in addition to changing the oil and oil filter, the spark plugs and filters of the power system need to be replaced. Often, at this value of the mileage, the timing tension roller gradually begins to fail. If the Priore has an 8-valve engine, it will not be superfluous to replace the valve cover gasket.
When crossing the value of 45 thousand km, the oil changes again. It is worth paying attention to the tension of the timing belt, and this applies to any engine, both 8-valve and 16-valve.
Motor testing
The next service is carried out after 60 thousand km. This time, it is advisable to replace the candles as well. It may also be necessary to flush the power system, especially the throttle pipe. It is advisable to replace the idle sensor as well.
At 75 thousand km on an 8-valve engine, the timing belt and the oxygen sensor are replaced. By this time, the coolant will partially lose its properties, so it is also replaced.
Further maintenance work on Priors is repeated. Thus, it turns out that the minimum engine resource is more than 100 thousand km. In some cases, with proper and timely maintenance, the mileage on the Priora without major repairs can be over 200 thousand km. At the same time, any intervention in the design of the engine, the so-called tuning, of course, can increase the engine power, but this also reduces the resource of the power unit.
But even with all the observance of the rules for carrying out maintenance, over time it will be necessary to carry out major repairs, and compliance with these rules will only slightly delay the time until it.
