The whole truth about the independent replacement of the side engine mount on cars ZAZ-1102 Tavria, ZAZ-1103 Slavuta

Not so long ago I watched one video on YouTube in which the guy told and showed, how the side (upper) engine mount changes on a ZAZ-1102 Tavria... What I remember when watching this video is that the author, having disassembled half of the car, says - “Changing this pillow is very simple and elementary!”. That's how it is! To remove the strut together with the steering knuckle, this means to unpress the steering tip finger, unscrew the ball joint bolt, unscrew the drive nut, and remove the caliper. And that's not all! Since, judging by the pile of sawdust under the car, the author's drive from the gearbox flew out and oil leaked from the gearbox. But these are all little things, right ?? And after that, you can say “simple and elementary”?

Well, what can you do if the car is designed in such a way that almost every repair of it is a test of the strength and character of the auto repairman. Even the most experienced! 😉 Don't agree with me? Okay, then let's go over the engine cushions of the ZAZ-1102 Tavria, ZAZ-1103 Slavuta and ZAZ-1105 Dana cars. Let's start, perhaps, with a description of the replacement of the lower pillows, and leave the side pillow "for dessert"! So let's go.

Therefore, if the front struts on your car are knocking and / or leaking, then this article should interest you. And if, at the same time, you decide to do all the work of removing, disassembling and repairing the racks with your own hands, then in this case it will be correct to say - I recommend reading it. In any business, even in the simplest and most understandable, difficulties and unpleasant surprises can arise that make a person nervous and significantly increase the time spent on work. Is that bad!

Replacement of the upper support of the shock absorber strut of the front suspension of the car ZAZ-1102 Tavria, ZAZ-1103 Slavuta, ZAZ-1105

Hello again, dear Tavriyveda and Slavutavody!))) Meet another article on repairing the miracle of the Ukrainian automotive industry. More specifically, the speech in this material will go on the replacement of the upper support of the shock-absorbing strut of the front suspension of cars ZAZ-1103 Slavuta, ZAZ-1102 Tavria and ZAZ-1105 Dana... I can tell right away that there is nothing complicated in the work of replacing the upper supports. Therefore, if there is a desire to do everything on your own, then you can safely get down to business. The main thing is to know the order of work, try to find quality spare parts and prepare the necessary tools. And we can say that half the job is done! But, in the meantime, let's determine the reasons why, or upon the appearance of which, it is necessary to change the upper supports.

On your beloved Tavria, the front hub bearing hummed? Do you want to replace the bearing with your own hands, but do not know how to do it right? You ask yourself - what tool is needed for this job? If yes. Then you have come to the right place. This article should answer all these questions.As a last resort, I hope so. And I will try the whole process of work on replacing the bearing of the front hub on the car ZAZ-1102 Tavria, ZAZ-1103 Slavuta, ZAZ-1105 It is given to describe as detailed and understandable as possible... Plus, I will give a list of the necessary tools and recommendations for the selection of bearings. In general, I will do my best to make this material useful to you. So.

I found! Yes, after all, I found a part on Tavria that can be removed-put-replaced more easily and faster than a similar part on cars of other brands. Well, of course, on those machines where this part is provided. For example, on cars of the family Vaz 2101-2107 Zhiguli and Vaz 2108-2115 Lada... The speech, as you guessed from the title of the article, is about stove (heater) tap... I think that many site visitors are aware of how “convenient and fun” the work on replacing a leaking stove tap with a 99 or Vaz-2115 is going on. Things are a little better, with similar work, on the immortal Classics - it takes less time to replace the stove tap than on the 99th, but you still have to show certain body plasticity and manual dexterity. It is quite possible that the VAZ designers decided - if there is a stove tap, then it must be in a secret and inaccessible place. And the point!

What part of the car is one of the first to fail when cold weather sets in? I suggest, the correct answer is stove (heater) radiator... I think you will agree with me. You can, of course, recall the sour (current) stove tap, the oak (burst) pipes of the cooling radiator, the radiator itself, or finally the thermostat. But, all of them are inferior to the primacy bar to the stove radiator))). Legendary Ukrainian Tavria and Slavuta is no exception. The problem with the leaking stove is familiar to them. True, I can immediately please and reassure the happy owners of ZAZ 1102-1105, if the carpets in the cabin become wet with antifreeze or you have installed such a device under the torpedo as in photo number one, then you should not be very upset.

Stud for fastening the front wheel on the car Tavria, Slavuta it changes quite simply, but not very quickly. To replace it, you will have to do the same steps as with replacing the front brake pads... Only the pads do not need to be removed))). When the front brake disc is removed, it is not a problem to knock out the stud (or what is left of them), they are not pressed tightly. It is also easy to install, the main thing is to make sure that the cut on the head of the hairpin is correct. Photos 1 and 2 will tell you in more detail.

For a long time I have not written about the creation of the domestic auto industry, unfortunately or fortunately, discontinued, the car is a legend - ZAZ Tavria and Slavuta )). And that's bad…. But the time has come to correct the mistake. We meet an article on replacement of front brake pads on Tavria and Slavuta cars... And I'll tell you, this process is quite entertaining. Perhaps you have already changed (or know how to do it) the front brake pads on Lanos, Nine or Classic and think that you can handle Tavria with the same ease. I can say for sure that the "easy walk" will not work. Since here you will come across the fruits of the exuberant imagination of Ukrainian engineers. And it seems to me that these guys were not looking for easy ways. Am I wrong? Then I invite you to further reading the article in which you will get acquainted with the design front brake caliper Tavria and with the process itself brake pad replacement.

Motorist Rule Number Three: Don't listen to the chassis in winter!
You’ll get off your sum.
The first two are about DDD.

An article for those who do not have a professional stethoscope, for example:

Today I asked myself a question - why, when to shake the engine (real athletes pump hot, it's good that it's -1C on the street), from somewhere under the hood you can hear a (disgusting) friction sound. I decided to accomplish the feat and find what was making noise there. It does not bother much, but when braking, passengers get scared (almost to death).Moreover, such muck in the car was long enough, I did not try to fight, because I do not often go with passengers.

Well, today my conscience is still stuck, I decided to find a "brand-drum".

To begin with, I decided to test the hypothesis - if the engine is on three pillows, then when swinging expensive ones, it most likely touches something that got inside one of these pillows (on the ski).

It turned out that it seemed that the sound was not at all from below, but remembering that the speed of sound in metal is several times faster than in air, I decided not to trust my feelings and rummage around this very ski with a wire. Although you can't really find it there, you just need to remove the whole structure. And now it's very cold and wet. Well, okay, by swinging the engine from the bottom of the car, I made sure that the sound was not from the lower pillows. I similarly checked the clutch drives, and so on.

Well, since the most difficult thing was already behind me, I decided to look at the Tavria's internal combustion engine from above and very closely. The case-cover of the air filter was again dangerously close to the glass amplifier, which is installed by every self-respecting owner of a small car. But when rocking, the lid did not touch anything.
I continued my inspection further, I decided to push the engine in the transverse and longitudinal directions. It turned out that it was noisy only in the longitudinal direction. It was already more fun. For everyone, he crawled under the oil filter with his hand. Not him. Distances sea.

And so, according to the "law of meanness", in the end I decided to look at the side pillow. She was okay. But a real chaos was going on nearby. The fact is that the engine of a car "Tavria" is hung out on three supports, more precisely, on the eyes. One of them is attached near the trampler, in fact - for the body of its drive. The second is to be in the immediate vicinity of the generator.

And the third? The third mysterious designers "Tavria" thrust into the place where they thought it would be least likely to be unscrewed under the influence of vibration. Have you already guessed where the third eyelet is? Right! Under the side cushion attachment. It actually unscrewed, and under the influence of vibrations shifted into close proximity to the body.

Actually, I did not want to unscrew the air filter at all, I put the eyelet in place with the help of a crowbar, or rather the handle of a universal (gas) key No. 1. The noise stopped.

From this conclusion. If something is noisy in "Tavria", this is not necessarily some expensive unit, just inspect all the places where the internal combustion engine and its attachments are in the immediate vicinity of the body. This rule will save you a lot of money.

PS. On the benefits of the logbook, - today I picked up the notes to determine when my hands got to this "ear" for the last time. It turned out that recently - 4 months ago. And the noise was a long time ago. Even before this movement. From which the conclusion suggests itself - it seems that when moving, this very ear walks left and right, here is the effect of now appearing and then disappearing noise. It will be necessary to remove the lid.

Well, and literature: "Tavria" - a repair manual, this is not the last thing.

The Tavria car (ZAZ-1102) became the first three-door hatchback of the Zaporozhye Automobile Plant. The car has been produced since 1988, has undergone several modifications. Hundreds of thousands of Tavriyas are still in operation.

The car is generally reliable, its repairs are not difficult. There are several problem areas that repairmen deal with the most. The engine does not cause much trouble, especially if the owner takes good care of it, constantly diagnoses it, and regularly undergoes maintenance.

Most of the problems arise with the "Tavria" carburetor, which needs to be constantly adjusted. When preventing the carburetor, you can be guided by the book "SOLEKS Carburetors", which describes all the procedures. Dismantling (you need to do it carefully), adjusting the gaps, grinding the deformed base of the flange presents difficulties. After prophylaxis of the carburetor, the car starts up better, the suction works well, fuel economy is visible.

Frequent repairs are considered to be the elimination of defects caused by rust, metal decay. In "Tavriya" such vulnerabilities are sills, wheel arches, bottom of doors. The metal of these body parts (0.8 mm thick) is rather thin, it is difficult to weld it with an electrode, it requires a lot of experience of the welder. In case of large damage, it is easier to buy a wing for disassembly. In the threshold with large defects, pieces of thin metal are welded in, patches are applied.

Other body repairs:
• straightening;
• enhanced anti-corrosion treatment;
• replacement of thresholds, arches;
• installation of wing liners - it is better to entrust specialists.

Gearbox repairs are complex jobs and are difficult to carry out on your own. The mechanism itself is quite simple, well mastered. Its current, major repairs are done at almost any service station. Scarce spare parts can be found at auto dismantlers, in the same place there are often operational gearbox assemblies.

Controls, door locks, dashboard, heating, tailgate - as a rule, are reliable, no repairman intervention is required. The condition of domestic roads makes the undercarriage repairs topical. First of all, the struts and stabilizer bushings wear out. The resource of other suspension elements of "Tavria": ball bearings, shock absorbers, silent blocks - is also not too large, they need to be replaced regularly.

Proponents of the new often upgrade the car, improve interior lighting, weak headlights, and put new wheels. With good care, careful operation, garage storage - "Tavria" looks like new, has served its owner for many years.
