How much does the VAZ 2106 body weigh: geometric and control dimensions

VAZ 2106 body dimensions

How much does the VAZ 2106 body weigh and what are its dimensions? People often ask on forums and car portals. Indeed, interest in the most popular car in the post-Soviet space was and remains incredibly high. Find out more by reading useful information on the body of this car. A lot depends on how much the body of the VAZ 2106 weighs, including the condition of the main parameters of the car.

Where is the engine number

Each vehicle model produced at the factory is equipped with an engine with a personal number. So, the engine number on the “seven” is its identification number, which can be used to determine the identity of the stolen car and its history.

The engine number is stamped on the cylinder block on the left side, immediately below the distributor. In addition, the number is duplicated in the summary table, which is attached below the air supply housing. The metal plate contains information about the car, such as model, body number, model and number of the engine unit, equipment, etc.

Description of the salon

VAZ designers didn’t really bother with the comfort of the interior or the presentability of the car’s exterior. Their task was to develop a functional and reliable car.

Therefore, the “six” as a whole continued the ascetic traditions of their predecessors. The interior trim was made of thin plastic, and the doors did not have shockproof bars, so noise while driving was an integral attribute of the “six”. A big setback (even by the standards of the 1980s) is the thin and very slippery steering wheel. The steering wheel was covered with cheap rubber, which constantly slipped out of my hands.

In the 1990s, the steering wheel was replaced with a more compact and comfortable one.

However, the fabric for upholstery of chairs has proven itself to be the best. The wear resistance of the material allows you to operate the car even now without additional upholstery of the interior.

The instrument panel was particularly ascetic, but at the same time had all the necessary instruments and control functions. The plastic used, if well cared for, has not cracked for many years. In addition, if it was necessary to independently repair the internal equipment, the driver could easily disassemble the dashboard and put it back together again without any consequences.

Weaknesses of the VAZ-2106 engine

The engine of the VAZ-2106 car is a modification of the power unit from the Troika. It is quite possible that this is why its design retained a number of weak points of its predecessors. Domestic craftsmen have learned to diagnose engine problems almost by sound. As an example, we will give several symptoms of breakdowns, and also tell you which engine elements could fail:

• The appearance of loud knocking noises at idle clearly indicates the need to adjust the valves. Under normal operating conditions, this problem usually occurs no more often than once every 7-10 thousand kilometers;
• The occurrence of metal-on-metal knocking indicates that the connecting rod bearings or piston pins are worn out. Both faults must be corrected immediately to prevent serious damage to the power unit;
• the so-called ceramic knock may indicate that the pistons of the VAZ-2106 have failed. You can still get to a car service center with such a breakdown, but it’s definitely not recommended to travel around the city and beyond;
• extraneous sounds in the lower part of the engine, which are accompanied by a sharp drop in the oil level - this is a clear sign of problems with the main bearings. In this situation, it is better to immediately use the services of a tow truck, since an independent trip even a short distance is fraught with major troubles.

In addition, quite often VAZ-2106 owners encounter the following carburetor and ignition system malfunctions:

• insufficient or, on the contrary, excessive fuel enrichment;
• throttle problems;
• failure of a high-voltage wire;
• moisture entering the ignition coil insulator;
• spark plug wear.

All these malfunctions, with experience, can be eliminated in no time - you just need to remove the damaged unit, disassemble it and, accordingly, replace the worn parts.

Body weight

Let’s say right away that the “six” weighs exactly 1045 kg. Its mass is decomposed as follows:

• The weight of the power unit together with additional equipment is 140 kg;
• The gearbox weighs about 26 kg;
• Shaft – 10 kg;
• Rear axle – 52 kg;
• Radiator – 7 kg;
• Body – 280 kg.

VAZ 2106 body weight

It turns out that the body is the heaviest part of the car. It is exactly twice as heavy as the engine. The remaining parts of the machine have approximately the same mass.

The VAZ-2106 Zhiguli is a rear-wheel drive passenger car with a sedan body. It is the ideological successor of the so-called classic layout of VAZ cars with rear wheel drive. This model was the final “classic” model of the first family, the successor to the VAZ-2103.

The “Six” was produced at the Volzhsky Automobile Plant starting in 1976. Until 1977, the VAZ-2106 and VAZ-2103 models were produced simultaneously, and subsequently the new model replaced the old “troika”.

In total, the production period of the VAZ-2106 model lasted about 30 years, during which time several million cars were produced. An interesting fact is that on December 25, 2001, production of the “six” at AvtoVAZ was stopped, but the car continued to leave the assembly line of the IZH-auto plant until January 2006.

The development of the VAZ-2106 was carried out by specialists from the Volga Automobile Plant Style Center in 1974, under the name “project 21031”.

Reduction of expensive materials, such as chrome parts, modernization of lighting and electrical equipment, changes in the exterior and interior of the car - these were the main requirements for updating the VAZ-2103 model. The front fascia has undergone changes, the appearance of the rear headlights, front and rear bumpers, wheel caps, side direction indicators, ventilation grilles, and the factory sign have changed.

Naturally, innovations could not ignore the interior of the car, in terms of innovations and materials used. The front seats received adjustable headrests, and the upholstery was designed in the style of black plastic in the spirit of its time. As for the controls, they were supplemented with an alarm system, a steering column windshield washer switch appeared, a rheostat was installed in the instrument panel for lighting, and the car was also equipped with an additional low brake fluid level indicator.

The new equipment was equipped with a radio and heated rear window. And on export right-hand drive copies there was a red fog lamp that was attached under the rear bumper on the left and right sides.

How much does a VAZ (Zhiguli, Lada, Niva) car weigh?

Home > a >

The curb weight of a vehicle is the weight of a vehicle with standard equipment, various consumables (oil, coolant, etc.), but minus the weight of passengers, driver and luggage.

Dry weight is equal to curb weight, but only without fuel, some equipment and consumables. That is, this is the mass of an unloaded vehicle without fuel.

The permissible gross weight is the weight of the maximum loaded vehicle provided by the manufacturer. This is sometimes called the maximum permissible mass. It is better not to go beyond the limits of this indicator, unless, of course, you want your car to last for a very long time. The increased load has a negative impact on the car body and suspension parts.

Modifications of VAZ 2106

VAZ-21061 - VAZ-2103 engine with a volume of 1500 cm3. Initially, this index was supposed to denote a special version for Canada, which included being equipped with special bumpers - aluminum, without fangs, with linings and ends made of black plastic.

VAZ-21062 is an export modification of the VAZ-2106 with right-hand drive.

VAZ-21063 is an improved version of the VAZ-21011 engine, with an oil pressure sensor and an electric fan instead of a belt-driven impeller (in a variant, belt drive was allowed).

VAZ-21064 is an export modification of the VAZ-21061 with right-hand drive.

VAZ-21065 is a modernized modification with improved equipment, produced in 1990 - 2001. It differed from the base model by a more powerful generator, a five-speed gearbox, a rear axle gearbox with a gear ratio of 3.9, a contactless ignition system, a Solex carburetor (21053-1107010), halogen headlights, seat upholstery and headrests, as well as a standard rear fog lamp and electrically heated rear window. Equipment 21065-01 was equipped with an engine from model 2103.

VAZ-21066 is an export modification of the VAZ-21063 with right-hand drive.

VAZ-21067 - IzhAvto assemblies. The VAZ-21067 engine, which differs from the base one by the presence of a fuel injection system with a catalytic converter, which ensures compliance with Euro-2 toxicity standards.

VAZ-21068 - was released as a carrier of units during the development period of the new VAZ-2108 and VAZ-21083 engines.

VAZ-21069 - cars were manufactured for special services. Externally, it is completely identical to the VAZ-2106, but with a two-section VAZ-411 RPD with a power of 120 hp. Since 1983, a VAZ-413 engine with a power of 140 hp could be installed, and since 1997, a universal RPD for rear-wheel drive and front-wheel drive VAZ VAZ-415.

VAZ-2106 “Tourist” is a pickup truck with a tent built into the body, created by order of the technical directorate. The project was rejected by the plant's head management, and the only silver copy was repainted red and subsequently used as in-plant technical equipment.

VAZ-2106 “Half past six” is the only copy made according to a special order received from L.I. Brezhnev or someone from his entourage after the demonstration of experienced VAZ-2107 to the top leadership of the USSR in 1979. In addition to export bumpers, it was distinguished by seats and grille radiator from 2107, as well as a hood modified for its installation.

Main characteristics of the “six”

Geometric dimensions of the VAZ 2106 body and price

VAZ 2106 is considered a Soviet and Russian car, produced in the period 1975-2005. The car was manufactured and produced at VAZ, but already in 1998 some production facilities were moved to Syzran and Kherson. In 2002, the “six” was assembled at IzhAvto, where the last model of the legendary car was left on the assembly line.

It will be interesting to know: in total, over 4,300 million VAZ 2106 units have been produced in the entire history of the automotive industry at various factories.

The “Six” was also produced in several modifications. Regarding the body, the following noteworthy points can be made:

• The modification of the VAZ 21061, intended for sale in Canada, had a completely different body installed. This one had special aluminum bumpers and fangs. The bumper also had trims and ends made of black plastic;
• The VAZ 21063 body was equipped with “five” bumpers;
• The body of 21065 was also equipped with aluminum bumpers, and some of the cars going for export were generally modified;

Control dimensions of the VAZ 2106 body

• equipped with a body with the same bumpers as on the export 21061, only without sidelights.

As for specialized modifications:

• The “six” was produced in a pickup truck. It was a modification of the "Tourist". The pickup truck had a tent built into the bed;
• A single copy of the “six” called “half past six” was produced by order of Leonid Ilyich. It was equipped with a different hood, modified for this modification.

Note. An interesting fact: according to the norms of Soviet industrial economics, the “six” with its dry weight of 1045 kg fell into the group of small class cars, but in terms of the volume of the power unit it fell into the third group.

The body of the “six” and its mass played an important role in compiling the technical data of the car.

Machine disassembly

Another option for handing over a machine to ferrous metal is to disassemble it. If you have a lot of free time, there is a place and all the conditions, then you can catch a small benefit:

— sell working spare parts and interior elements

— sort black scrap and non-ferrous scrap

- throw out unnecessary things and reduce the percentage of clogging

Everything is clear with spare parts - you disassemble them, put the working parts aside and sell them through advertisements. Don’t think that such spare parts are not in demand; for example, go to Avito and see how many similar advertisements there are, how many views they have. This market is alive, there will always be buyers for any thing, remember this.

Sort. This is perhaps the longest and most difficult process, but it will provide the greatest benefit, along with the sale of spare parts. Non-ferrous metal is contained in the transmission, in the engine housing, in engine attachments, in the passenger compartment, etc. For each type of non-ferrous scrap, have a separate container and sort it, because No one will buy unsorted scrap from you.

Reduce blockage. If you have no desire to sort and disassemble, then simply throw out everything non-metal from the car. Trim, glass, rubber, etc. In this case, the metal collection specialist can reduce the percentage of blockage to 10%, which will be much more profitable if you get rid of only 100-200 kilograms.

Dismantling a car is, of course, everyone’s business and it’s worth considering whether the time spent will correspond to the benefit you will receive. We do not recommend disassembling; it is much faster, easier and safer to hand over the entire car.

Which oil to choose and how to replace it correctly

Among the large and varied selection you can find synthetic and mineral oil. They differ from each other in that the latter is capable of flushing out all unnecessary and excess deposits from the engine.

But in cars of this brand, spare parts are made of nitrile rubber, which can dissolve in high-quality synthetic oil. To completely prevent this process, it is necessary to replace all rubber parts with similar acrylic parts. They will work with any synthetic oil.

After all components have been replaced, you can switch to a synthetic analogue of oil.

Changing the oil in the VAZ 2106 engine is carried out independently or at a service station, where the technicians will simply drain the old mineral oil and fill in new one; or a specially designed detergent for washing (in case of heavily soiled parts).

In the latter case, the 2106 engine will be started for ten minutes so that the filled liquid can wash away all residual deposits from the use of outdated mineral oil.

Important:

• This operating process is necessary to ensure that the new synthetic oil does not mix with particles of used mineral oil.
• Otherwise, you may encounter blockage of the oil channels. To change the oil in VAZ 2106 engines you need to have certain knowledge. Otherwise, such intervention will lead to engine damage.
• If the vehicle has been in use for quite a long time, combustion deposits will form on the liners and gaskets. The holes in oil seals and head gaskets can become clogged.
• Particular attention should be paid to the general condition of all internal parts, especially check the seals and gaskets.
• When excessive pressure is observed inside the system when the supply tube is clogged, an oil leak can be expected.
• Therefore, to change the oil, you need to buy a high-quality brand that has been tested for decades.

Why does the engine get hot?

The most common defect of the 2106 engine is its overheating. The engine operating temperature is just before +96°C.

The reasons that the engine began to get very hot may be malfunctions of the following systems and components:

• thermostat, air lock;
• radiator, its clogging;
• low quality of liquid used for cooling;
• the fan has failed.

If engine overheating is detected, you must immediately stop the car and carry out a thorough examination and eliminate the cause. If the engine begins to heat up due to a broken thermostat, then this device must be replaced with a new one.

Useful information about the "seven"

ATTENTION! A completely simple way to reduce fuel consumption has been found! Don't believe me? An auto mechanic with 15 years of experience also didn’t believe it until he tried it. And now he saves 35,000 rubles a year on gasoline! Read more"

The weight of the “seven” is exactly 1030 kilograms. At the same time, the car body is the heaviest among all other parts and components (600 kg). Its assembly diagram differs in a standard, classic sequence for VAZs and includes the following elements:

• Front end parts along with fenders, complemented by reinforcements;
• Roof;
• The bottom is also well reinforced, especially in the front and rear;
• Sidewalls.

Each of the parts is made from a special type of steel, has its own ID number, a specific mold and casting pattern. So, the roof of the “seven” always has a thickness of 0.9 mm.

The body parts are combined with each other by welding. If elements, for example, such as the floor, bear a significant load, they are additionally strengthened by arc welding.

In addition to the main elements, the body of the “seven” also has attached parts called “tails”. These are the parts that can be connected with bolts and hinges to the main frame - bumpers, hood, and so on.

Regardless of the configuration, the VAZ 2107 has certain dimensions.

The body length of the VAZ 2107 reaches 4126 mm, the width is 1620 mm, and the height is 1435 mm.

Control dimensions or correct body geometry

It is not enough for the owner of the “Seven” to know only the standard parameters of the car. It will also be useful to study the control body dimensions of the VAZ 2107 or the points of the car’s frame, especially if the owner plans to improve the dynamics of the car by lightening the body.

The diagram below shows the main control dimensions of the VAZ 2107.

The same diagram shows how to check the control points of the body floor.

Control of the geometry of the body and the attachment points of the chassis and floor units is carried out on a special installation. This is a special type of machine designed for body inspection and repair. This is what he looks like.

On such a machine, not only measurements are carried out, but also further editing of the body. The purpose of the operation is to recreate the original linear dimensions of the body.

ID VAZ 2107

On the “seven”, like other cars, individual technical information is indicated. It is presented in the table, which can be found under the hood.

IDs imply information not only about the car model. This contains detailed information about the body number and its weight.

Body dimensions of the “six” and their verification

VAZ 2106 geometric dimensions of the body

There is a concept of car body size. Along with this, it is customary to talk about geometric dimensions, which imply control standards and distances, the geometry of door and window openings, the distance between axes and much more.

As a rule, a car that has been in an accident is checked for displacement of the main body elements. Particular attention is paid to the following body parts:

• Diagonals. The car is driven onto the overpass, and then the distance from one extreme point of the floor to the other is checked diagonally using a tape measure. If there is a discrepancy between the distances on one side and the other, there is movement of the body;
• Racks. They are subject to mandatory verification. First of all, if the car has been in an accident, the whole side, not damaged, is diagnosed, and only then the damaged side.

Note. As for the choice of body points, in this case you can choose any. For example, you can select from the pillar to the extreme point of the rear door.

• Roof. To make sure that the roof is not leaking, you need to measure the dimensions of the doorways diagonally. The dimensions, of course, must match on both sides;
• Glass. The conformity of the windshield and rear windows is checked. Both are measured diagonally.

VAZ 2106 control body dimensions

Dependence of acceleration parameters on mass

Engineers and designers know that there are a couple of classic methods to help improve vehicle data. And weight, or rather its ratio, plays almost the most important role in this matter.

Purely hypothetically: if you reduce the weight of the “six” by 10 percent, then the acceleration time to hundred (as we remember, it was 16 seconds) will also decrease by 10 percent. And this is already 15 seconds, which, you agree, is a good result.

To be specific, such a linear relationship between weight and acceleration only works in airless space, that is, in space. In fact, the car does not increase its parameters after 130 km/h, since it is impossible not to take into account the ASV (aerodynamic impact). And no matter how you reduce the weight of the car, you won’t help the matter. She will devote a lot to overcoming resistance. For example, if the power is 80 hp, then 40 hp. will definitely go to resistance, and the other half to acceleration.

It turns out that on cars with more power, weight reduction will have a more positive effect. The power unit still has a lot of power left for acceleration.

Another interesting point concerns the following. During maximum acceleration, the rear axle of the “six” is loaded. A portion of the weight moves from the front to the rear. For a rear-wheel drive car, this is only for the better - road traction becomes more effective. For the same reason, if we are talking about reducing weight on the “six”, it is recommended not to touch the rear, but to localize efforts to unload the middle and front zones.

Note. Another advantage in this regard can be considered the transfer of some components from the hood to the luggage compartment. For example, it could be a battery, washer reservoir, etc.

A few tips to ease the “six”

In order to make the VAZ 2106 a little lighter, it is recommended to do the following:

1. Operate the vehicle with an incomplete fuel tank. As you know, a tank filled to the brim means an extra 80 kg of weight, which will certainly affect acceleration and fuel consumption.
2. Some experienced drivers also keep the washer reservoir empty - an extra 4-15 kg of weight.
3. Carrying a spare tire with you is, of course, correct. But without a spare wheel, the car loses about 12-25 kg, and this is no longer trivial.
4. A lot also depends on the type of disk. Thus, it is recommended to use forged wheels. They reduce not only the total, but also the inertial mass by 10-20 kg.
5. It is advisable to install the lightest battery. So, a 70-amp battery weighs 5 kg more than a 55-amp battery. We draw the appropriate conclusions.

More tips regarding more bodywork:

• Welding the frame will not only increase the rigidity characteristics of the body, but also significantly reduce the weight. The fact is that in this case an unnecessary, extra piece of metal is cut out of the body (no longer needed to maintain rigidity). In addition, it will be possible to install lightweight doors;
• You can replace standard heavy glasses with polycarbonate ones. This will reduce the weight of the car by 30-50 kg;
• You can install bumpers made of lightweight materials instead of standard ones. It will also be necessary to remove standard fasteners and clamps, which will ultimately result in a weight reduction of 20-70 kg;
• The hood and trunk can be replaced with similar ones, but made of composite materials;
• The audio systems in the car, including speakers and a huge subwoofer, also affect the mass;
• You can replace the seats with sports ones;
• Muffler tuning, carried out correctly, results in a weight reduction of up to 40 kg;
• Lightening the power unit by replacing cast iron manifolds;
• Installing a light flywheel results in a reduction of 3-8 kg;
• Standard suspension elements can be replaced with tuning ones, aluminum levers can be installed;
• Replace the steering wheel and gear shift knob.

Remember that the weight of the VAZ 2106 body affects not only the acceleration of the car, but also its other important parameters. Reducing weight affects good handling, braking and much more.

The instructions for lightening the weight of a car given above are not the only one of its kind. Every driver acquires valuable knowledge over time and uses it. In general, competent tuning of a car can be done with your own hands, if you know the nuances and technical data of a particular car model. Videos and photos will greatly help in this matter.

• Absolutely legal (Article 12.2);
• Hides from photo and video recording;
• Suitable for all cars;
• Works through the cigarette lighter connector;
• Does not cause interference to radios and cell phones.

Tuning

It is possible to tune the 2106 engine because it is a classic engine.

Thanks to this opportunity, you can grind channels, polish intake manifolds, select a carburetor, camshaft, split gears, modify the intake, bore cylinder blocks, select the best options for the piston system, crankshaft, and connecting rod.

It is best to entrust such work as tuning the VAZ 2106 engine to qualified specialists, because this is a serious modification of the engine.

Many motorists want to make their own car more powerful, so they resort to this procedure. To perform tuning of the VAZ 2106 engine, it is necessary to replace specific factory-produced parts with more improved ones. This may include a valve, connecting rod or pistons.

In the process of modifying the car, you can increase the volume in the VAZ 2106 engine. During boosting, it is necessary to take into account the compression and compression ratio of the engine.

Specialists must necessarily assess the current condition of the engine and measure compression. Only after a positive verdict can the volume in VAZ 2106 engines be increased.

DIY tuning in the garage

When a person decides to do tuning with his own hands, he needs:

1. Be sure to first check the wiring, which is made of silicone. In almost all cases, it requires urgent replacement. Experts recommend never skimping on wiring and using only high-quality shielded wires.
