Self-replacement of the muffler in a Lada Granta car

We carry out the work on an inspection ditch or overpass.

To avoid burns, it is recommended to start work after the exhaust system has cooled down.

Using a 13mm wrench, unscrew the nut of the bolt securing the clamp connecting the pipes of the additional and main mufflers. We hold the bolt from turning with a wrench of the same size. Similarly, loosen the nut of the other bolt.

We take the main muffler pipe back, move it to the side and remove the connecting ring.

According to forums on the Internet, many owners of Lada Granta and Lada Kalina complain about the noise of the exhaust system at low speeds or when the car is idling. Often this problem is not related to a malfunction of the system itself, as one might think, the whole point is the lack of high-quality vibration damping throughout the entire path and reliable fixation. People's ingenuity does not stand still and there are a number of ways to solve this problem, from those that will cost absolutely nothing to serious intervention in the exhaust system. Which method you choose is up to you.

The most expensive method is to replace the muffler corrugation with a larger one. Initially, the standard exhaust tract of Granta and Kalina has a corrugation running immediately after the catalytic converter, but its size is not large and it cannot cope with the vibration that comes to it. The solution to this problem is to install a 250mm long corrugation. We drive the car onto a pit, overpass or lift. Using a “13” wrench, unscrew the three nuts securing the exhaust pipe to the catalytic converter flange. We advise you to buy a set of new nuts and a replacement gasket in advance.

Using a “13” wrench or a socket of a similar size, unscrew the clamp securing the rear part of the exhaust tract.

We remove the muffler from the rubber hangers and mark the places for installing a new corrugation. The old corrugation will have to be cut off.

We weld a new corrugation. Pay special attention to the weld, because if there are holes in it, the exhaust system will begin to “sniff” and will soon burn out at the location of the hole. To reliably protect the weld, paint it with a heat-resistant primer and cover it with a similar sealant that is resistant to high temperatures.

Reinstall the exhaust tract and install a new gasket. Replacing the corrugation is a guaranteed way to get rid of exhaust noise, but it is also the most expensive and labor-intensive method.

The next method in terms of cost and time is to tie the standard corrugation with steel clamps. Purchase two or three screw clamps measuring 60*80 and install them according to the attached photo.

Exhaust system Lada Granta 8 valve

I ordered a Stinger exhaust system directly from the manufacturer: Spider 4-2-1 + resonator with corrugation + end can without tip.
I ordered it on the stinger-auto website, because on stinger-shop prices are on average 20% higher for a similar kit. Why did you decide to replace the exhaust? I had experience installing and operating these “devices” on a VAZ 2112, which I owned six years earlier. After installation, the car began to “breathe” differently, the engine turns easier and overall there is a feeling of a slight increase in power and torque at the “top”. Let me tell you right away that installing an exhaust without firmware is a waste of money. Therefore, the issue with the firmware is not even discussed, necessarily.

Well, it’s naturally interesting how the 8-valve engine will run after such modification, since before that the exhaust was installed on a 16-valve 124 engine.

PS in the end the exhaust will not be loud, everything fits into GOST (79 dB), so it’s not intended for the sake of sound...

August 22, 2015 The ordered exhaust has arrived:

I also immediately ordered an exhaust installation kit:

August 26, 2015 Exhaust installed. Got up without any problems. During the running-in process, it turned out that during active “dumping” the spider slightly catches the anti-roll bar. After some deliberation, a stabilizer from Kalina (19mm) with a bend was installed. Problem solved. PS I didn’t feel the difference between the native stub and the Kalinovsky one, I thought it would be generally sad...

August 31, 2015 About the “sound”: A slightly mumbling sound appeared at idle, the “peak” of the sound occurs in the speed zone of 2500-3000 rpm. To be honest, I expected a sharper sound, so I was pleasantly surprised by the normal, not roaring, screaming exhaust sound.

Exhaust system. Description of design

Exhaust system:

1 – rear suspension cushion of the main muffler;

3 – front suspension cushion of the main muffler;

8 – nuts securing the additional muffler to the catalytic collector;

10 – sealing gasket for the additional muffler;

11 – diagnostic oxygen concentration sensor;

13 – sealing gasket of the intake pipe and catalytic collector;

14 – control oxygen concentration sensor;

15 – bracket for fastening the catalytic converter to the cylinder block;

17 – additional muffler;

18 – suspension cushions for additional muffler

The exhaust system consists of an exhaust manifold integral with the catalytic converter (catalytic converter), additional and main mufflers and pipes connecting them.

A control sensor for oxygen concentration in the exhaust gases (lambda probe) is installed in the upper part of the catalytic converter (before the converter). The second oxygen concentration sensor - diagnostic is installed after the neutralizer in the lower part of the catalytic collector. A catalytic converter with two oxygen concentration sensors ensures compliance with Euro-4 toxicity standards.

The vehicle is equipped with a three-component exhaust catalytic converter designed to reduce emissions of carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides and unburned hydrocarbons into the atmosphere. It is a ceramic block with many pores coated with so-called afterburning catalysts: rhodium, palladium, platinum.

Passing through the pores of the neutralizer, toxic carbon monoxide (CO) is converted into low-toxic carbon dioxide (CO2), and nitrogen oxides are reduced to harmless nitrogen.

The content of toxic hydrocarbon compounds (CH) in exhaust gases is significantly reduced. In general, the degree of gas purification in a working neutralizer reaches 90–95%.

Sealing gasket in the connection of the intake pipe and catalytic collector with the cylinder head

A metal multilayer heat-resistant gasket with a sealing coating (common for the catalytic collector and intake pipe) is installed between the catalytic collector and the cylinder head.

For normal operation of the converter, the composition of the exhaust gases (in particular, the oxygen content in them) must be within strictly specified limits. This function is performed by the electronic engine control unit (controller), changing the amount of fuel supplied depending on the readings of the oxygen concentration sensors. The cause of failure of the converter may be interruptions in the ignition system: unburned fuel burns out in the converter, damaging the pores of the converter. This can cause the exhaust system to become clogged and the engine to stall (or severely lose power). Mufflers and catalytic collector are non-separable units; if they fail, they must be replaced with new ones. The flange of the metal compensator pipe and the additional muffler is attached to the flange of the catenary collector with three studs and nuts.

The connection between the flanges of the additional muffler pipes and the catalytic collector is sealed with a heat-resistant gasket

A bellows-type metal compensator allows the power unit to oscillate on rubber-metal supports without transmitting these vibrations to the exhaust gas system.

Between the rear part of the additional muffler pipe and the front part of the main muffler pipe there is a metal ring with two spherical outer surfaces, which makes it possible to compensate for errors in the manufacture of parts. The inner surface of the flanges is also spherical, the flanges themselves are tightened with a clamp.

What to consider when replacing the resonator

When replacing, you need to consider what you want to get as a result. You can install a 2190 resonator, which is installed on Grants at the factory, but it is not a fact that this will solve your problem for a long time.

Many owners do just this, but even when replacing, it is worth paying attention to the condition of the entire gas exhaust system of the car, the condition of its other components: the manifold, the gas receiver pipe, the gas extinguishing catalyst and the corrugated pipe.

It may be necessary to change the entire system, or some additional components. But the whole problem is that after driving another 5-10 thousand, it is possible that you will return to the starting position - the resonator on the Grant rattles.

Which is better 2190 or StinGer?

What is best is up to you to decide. You need to take into account your needs and requirements for the car. The resonator of the Lada Grant, if it has been replaced with high quality, performs well in operation. This is exactly what the manufacturer wanted to give you, this is his idea. If you want to get a good exhaust sound, you can install a stinger. Often a Grant Sport resonator is replaced with a stinger. This type of tuning makes the car more sporty. This is a matter of taste and preference for everyone.

Replacing the resonator

As for replacement, the Grant resonator is not difficult to replace. To do this, you need to drive the car onto a pit or a lift, remove the muffler, then the resonator itself. Install a new resonator, then install a muffler and that's it - off we go.

It's not so simple if you wanted to install a stinger resonator on the Grant. Well, it’s not easy, everything can be done “anyhow” with the help of an angle grinder, welding and straight hands. So at what stage of the installation will we need these tools?

If you decide to install this device with a standard exhaust manifold and muffler, we will not disassemble this method, since this is a “collective farm” from which we will not get anything except wasted time and a damaged exhaust system of the car.

To obtain the declared characteristics for improving the dynamic performance of a car, the manufacturer of this resonator (StinGer) needs to approach this issue comprehensively. An integrated approach consists of replacing not only the resonator, but also the exhaust manifold with a 4-2-1 “spider”, as well as the standard muffler with a so-called “can” with a diameter of 51 mm, you choose the manufacturer.

Materials for performing the robot:

• WD-40 (lubricant for breaking stuck bolts). • Gaskets for the exhaust manifold, resonator. • Spare set of bolts. • A set of rubber bands for fastening the exhaust system. • Spider 4-2-1. • Stinger resonator. • Bank muffler. • A cloth for wiping hands.

Tools:

• Set of open-end wrenches. • Set of cranks. • Straight arms))).

Process robots

So, let's take a closer look at the robot process and its sequence:

1. We drive the car into the pit, but it is more convenient to carry out this work on a lift.

2. Wait for the exhaust system to cool down.

3. We process all the bolts with a high-pressure tool and wait 5-10 minutes.

4. We begin to dismantle the exhaust system from the muffler.

5. Install the spider exhaust manifold, corrugated pipe, resonator, and muffler. We tighten everything with a new set of bolts.

After installing this exhaust system, most likely, the idle speed will not be stable, the car's thrust will decrease, and throttle response will disappear. All of the above is associated with the need to edit the firmware of the engine ECU (electronic control unit) system. Unfortunately, you will not be able to carry out this procedure for making changes to the calibration cards yourself. To do this, you need to contact a specialist.

Recommendations for choosing a specialist for ECU firmware:

• The specialist must have a set of equipment for editing the firmware online (real time).

• The procedure for making adjustments to the firmware should take place online (changes to the firmware, as well as its rollback, should occur while driving a car, and not simply replacing the firmware with a pre-made one that the master has).

• The wizard has experience in debugging firmware for your upgrades.

If everything is done correctly, the manufacturer promises an increase in horsepower by 5-10 units.

Replacing the muffler on a Lada Granta with your own hands

In this article we will look at the process of replacing the main elements of the exhaust system of VAZ 2190 - Lada Granta vehicles. In particular, we will study how to properly replace the exhaust system suspension cushions, as well as the main and additional mufflers.

Replacing rubber cushions of the exhaust system on a Lada Granta

Replacing the muffler suspension cushions is required if, due to damage to any of them, the exhaust elements begin to come into contact with the car body. There are four such rubber hangers in total: they are used to hang the additional and main mufflers.

Removing the rear cushion of the main muffler is done as follows: slightly lift the muffler, then remove the suspension from the mounting bracket located on the body. Carefully remove the rear cushion.

Installing a new part is carried out in the reverse order. To make work easier, the bracket can be lubricated with a fairly concentrated soap solution.

Now as for replacing the rear cushion. To do this, lift the main muffler and remove the suspension from the mounting bracket.

Replacing the main muffler on a Lada Granta

1. Unscrew the nuts of the mounting clamp bolts, as shown in the figure below. We take out one of the bolts and remove the clamp.

2. Carefully separate the two pipes and remove the graphite gasket ring.

3. Move the muffler slightly upward and remove it from the rear rubber cushion. Then we remove it from the front suspension.

4. Remove the main muffler.

Installation is performed in reverse order. To make installation easier, rubber hangers are generously moistened with soapy water.

Removing an additional muffler with your own hands

To complete the work we will need: two 13mm spanners and a screwdriver with a straight blade. First of all, we need to separate the pipes of the main and additional mufflers. For this:

1. Using spanner wrenches, unscrew the nuts of the two bolts, through which the fastening clamp securing the pipes of the additional main mufflers is tightened. An important point: we do not completely unscrew the nut of one of the bolts.

2. We take out the bolt, the nut of which we completely unscrewed and removed. Next, remove the clamp.

3. Carefully separate the pipes. We take out the sealing ring. We inspect it for severe abrasions and damage. In case of severe wear, the metal-graphite ring must be replaced.

4. Using a flat-head screwdriver, bend the locking tabs of the mounting plate.

5. Use wrenches to unscrew the nuts that secure the collector flange to the additional muffler pipe. Remove the locking plate.

6. Lift the additional muffler and carefully remove its bracket from behind the rubber suspension. Remove the sealing gasket.

7. Hold the muffler and remove it from the rear rubber cushion. We remove the additional muffler from the car.

8. Install the new spare part in the reverse order.

Price policy

Before you start working, you need to pay attention to the financial side of the issue.

StinGer resonator:

• Resonator (steel), price - 1800 rubles. • “Spider”, price - 1600 rubles. • Set of gaskets, price - 500 rub. • Bolts, price - 350 rub. • A set of rubber bands for attaching the exhaust pipe, price - 280 rubles. • Muffler, price - 2000-3000 rubles. • Firmware, price - 3000-5000 rubles.

As a result, it turns out that to replace the exhaust system you will need 9530-12530 rubles.

Factory resonator:

• Resonator, price - 1450 rubles. • Set of gaskets, price - 500 rub. • Bolts, price - 350 rub.

In order to replace the resonator with a factory one, you will need 2300 rubles.

What you like and can afford is completely up to you. Moreover, StinGer also provides your choice of a resonator, which is an analogue of the factory one. No tuning is required during its installation. Installation is simple: remove the muffler, replace the resonator, install the muffler. In this case, the issue price will be 2500-3000 rubles.

According to automotive experts, elements of the exhaust gas exhaust system, especially the so-called. The “pants” and muffler of the Lada Granta, and indeed all cars of the Lada family, can withstand about 50-60 thousand km of operation. After this, due to exposure to extreme exhaust gas temperatures, they require replacement due to failure. Holes form in them, where exhaust gases break through, uniformly affecting the entire surface of the muffler.

Reviews

Positive
1.Vasily: It’s a pity that the standard equipment does not include a muffler attachment. I bought a diffuser, did not shorten the pipe, the mount fit perfectly.
2.Gennady: I ​​purchased a non-standard diffuser, the design did not fit the fasteners, I cut off a couple of centimeters from the pipe.
3.Kirill: since I live in a rural area, I can’t do without a diffuser. I bought it on the market a week ago, installed it myself, the process is not complicated. My recommendations to motorists.
4.Vladimir: I bought a metal diffuser and took it to a service station to have it painted in the color of the car with a special spray. We'll see what happens, but it should be beautiful. I will definitely share my impressions.
5.Kirill: I bought a diffuser in a store, special thanks to the seller for the recommendations. Looks very nice, less dust.
Negative
1.Vladlen: I ordered the installation of a diffuser at a service station, after two months it started to “crack”, there was some play. The workmanship is low.
2.Ignat: installed the nozzle last summer, but lost it in the winter. I won't buy any more.
3.Ivan: the diffuser I bought lasted six months, after which it fell off on the way. I can't recommend it.

Reviews of muffler attachments for Lada Granta
Conclusion
The muffler attachment should be considered as an accessory for the car. There is practically no practical help from the diffuser, with the exception of changing the angle of exhaust gas flow, which helps reduce dust on the road.

Each owner decides the feasibility of installing equipment individually.

Choosing a Lada Granta muffler

There is always a certain number of Lada Granta mufflers on the market, noticeably distinguished by their diversity. Here you can find beautifully designed mufflers with an outstanding exterior, tuned models, and ordinary “mufflers” from various manufacturers. They can differ in weight, dimensions and configuration, which are decorated with various attachments.

Despite the huge selection of such products, it is recommended to install a factory-made muffler. For all its apparent clumsiness of form compared to other products, this type of Lada Granta muffler has one undeniable advantage: it is made in accordance with the plant’s GOSTs, which guarantees a service life between overhauls. After all, reducing the weight of the muffler is directly related to the use of a different type of steel or not filling the cavities of the exhaust pipe with the necessary components. All this will be decisive in determining the service life of a given part.

The factory muffler of the Lada Granta, the price of which on average ranges from 1100 to 1500 rubles on the automobile market, is a good replacement for a burnt-out product. With a muffler, in addition to burning out the housing, other troubles also occur: the muffler corrugation may burn out, fail and not perform its direct functions of reducing carbon monoxide content, the catalyst may burn out and increase the noise of a running engine, the housing itself may suffer mechanical damage when the rubber suspensions break fastening to the bottom, etc. But still, the main breakdown is considered to be a burnt-out product, so we will consider the procedure for replacing the Lada Grant muffler with our own hands, having previously prepared for this type of repair work.

What did you do

I removed the resonator and welded in a normal corrugation instead of the factory one. It will be inconvenient to weld in place, so it is better to remove the resonator. Some craftsmen say that you can carefully cut it with a grinder and weld it in place. But I advise you to take it off anyway.

The mounting bolts on this machine are already different, so they came off easily. Moreover, our Lada Granta has a low mileage.

When you install a new gasket, you need to pull it through 2 times. After the first time, given that there is no flame arrester, the gasket will burn out and cut. Therefore, you need to re-stretch it. This is the only disadvantage when removing the resonator.

I decided to weld a 3-layer corrugation with internal reinforcement, size 150x45.

It is approximately the same size, but if necessary, you can trim it with a grinder. It can be seen that the layers of the mesh are made denser compared to the factory one.

How to weld correctly

First you need to weld 1 end, which goes to the manifold (spider). Then hang the pipe in place to weld it evenly.

Now let’s fix the resonator, fix it by welding so that everything is smooth. Then scald as needed. We boiled the corrugation, this is how it looks when welded.

Looks like a factory one. I hope that after checking all the vibrations and squeaks will disappear.

Do not forget that after installing the spider or flame arrester, you need to tighten the exhaust pipe fastening 2 times. The second time is better to delay the next day.

Muffler replacement process

It is necessary to prepare the car for work, for this we select a flat area, and then simply put the handbrake on and engage first gear. The procedure for carrying out operations when removing the muffler on Grant:

  1. Using a mechanic's tool, remove the tightening clamp located between the muffler and the resonator. To remove the clamp, you need to have two “13” wrenches in stock; for convenience, we use a head with a wrench and a “13” socket-type wrench. It should be noted that the muffler fasteners are located in a zone of thermally unstable temperatures; they are periodically subject to heating and cooling. Therefore, unscrewing such fasteners can sometimes be quite a difficult undertaking.
  2. After releasing the clamp from the two fasteners, it is necessary to move the Lada Granta muffler in the direction of the exhaust gas outlet, having previously tapped the bend of the product with a plumber's hammer.
  3. Next, we unfasten the muffler one by one from the rubber hangers with which it is attracted and fixed to the bottom of the car.
  4. We remove the muffler from the car and put it to the side, because it is necessary to install a new damper.

Installation of a new product is carried out in the reverse order.

  • repair of mufflers, or complete replacement of the resonator and main muffler of the Lada Granta using the manufacturer’s technology. This is determined by exhaust system diagnostics.
  • catalyst repair: replacement with an original, alternative, or even a universal catalyst. If necessary, we install and replace the lambda probe. For “older” Lada Granta cars, we offer an effective replacement of the catalyst with a flame arrester. In this case, for proper operation of the exhaust system, a lambda probe is installed.
  • Replacing the corrugation: the corrugation cannot be repaired, but replacing it with the original or even tuning the corrugation will significantly reduce the vibrations of the exhaust system. When installing the corrugation, the muffler catalyst and exhaust pipe must be diagnosed. If necessary, repair the leaking manifold, replace the muffler gaskets.
  • For lovers of a spectacular exterior and a noble “roar”, within the permissible sound level, we offer muffler tuning: exhaust pipe routing, direct-flow mufflers, nozzles.

Model range Lada Granta

Checked the result

In fact, the nasty sounds were made by the weak standard corrugation. Therefore, after removing the “cat” and installing the spacer, two conclusions can be drawn.

They apply to any machine:

  1. If you install a spider without a flame arrester, reducing the temperature and gas pressure on the exhaust system, then you need to immediately weld the corrugation. It is inexpensive - a good reinforced corrugation will cost you from 500 to 800 rubles, depending on the size. It makes no sounds, the exhaust is stock. No unwanted extraneous sounds or vibrations are heard.
  2. Pull the connection between the spider and the resonator 2 times, otherwise there will be cutting and smell in the cabin. In a couple of days you will have to visit a car service center and renew it again. Every day the corrugation will become loose and rattle.

If you follow these tips after removing the catalyst on the Lada Grant, then everything will be fine. Acceleration and dynamics will improve. But you must understand that the car is void of warranty and harms the environment. Sometimes there will still be a smell in the cabin. Whether to remove the catalyst or not is up to you. I’m just talking about the subtleties that need to be taken into account right away.

Subscribe, write your comments, how you removed the catalyst, what happened. Good luck to all!

How to replace the Lada-Kalina muffler with your own hands

You can replace the “glushak” in two ways: contact a service center or do everything yourself. In the first case, you will have to do practically nothing: you will only need to take the car to a service station and pay a certain amount for repairs. If we consider the second option, then we will need to take care of preparing the tools that will be needed during work.

To carry out repairs you will need:

Choosing a muffler and its cost

Finding a new part is not so easy. Despite all the variety of elements that the modern automotive market offers, it is quite difficult to buy a truly high-quality product. There is a high probability of purchasing a part that was made in an unknown location or manner. The only advantage of such a muffler is its low cost, but the service life compared to the factory product will be much shorter. Therefore, in order to buy a good quality element, you need to know what parameters to rely on when choosing.

First, attention is paid to the material of manufacture. The factory muffler is made of stainless steel or aluminum. The first option is quite difficult to find, but it is quite possible to make it to order. Any other material in this case will last less. An important parameter is cost. A high-quality part cannot cost less than 1 thousand rubles. Although you can find a price of 5 thousand rubles, which is clearly overpriced. The price of an outright fake will fluctuate around 500 rubles.

To ensure that the muffler lasts as long as possible, when purchasing, you should choose a part made of stainless steel or aluminum

In addition to cost and material, attention should be paid to the weight of the muffler. A worthy part must be massive, which is due to the presence of compacted walls and noise-absorbing material inside. If your goal is to purchase a good quality muffler, then it will be difficult to find one in the car market. It is better to contact a service center or a store with original spare parts to purchase.

Main mufflers

To retrofit the interior, obtain car air conditioners and components for them (stretchers, stops, amplifiers), as well as car seats. There are different units on the page that differ in cost, minimum “920 rubles,” functionality, and manufacturers.

Safety is the most important thing

the safety of car parts is of great importance, since it protects specific areas of the car from damage, especially if you drive in extreme places or terrible roads. In order not to damage the body of the car, a power body kit, protection for the front and rear bumpers, sills, and corner protection are used. You also have the opportunity to have spare wheel mounts.
