The car was produced in 2008 (model year 2009 according to the VIN code) 1.4 16 valves with air conditioning (blue block), mileage 56,000, had a LUK clutch (from the factory) I installed VIS. The oil was not drained because the drive was not removed from the gearbox. everything took about 4-5 hours (amateurs in this matter, so to speak)

Lada Kalina is a good car, powerful and durable. And yet, the design of the model has a number of unreliable elements that make themselves felt over time. These include the clutch. In order to identify the malfunction and correct it correctly yourself, without contacting expensive car services, it is important to know what the mechanism is intended for and how the clutch on Kalina is replaced.

Clutch cable repair

The most important element of the clutch is the sensor. Its purpose is to promptly send an impulse to the motor controller about the need to turn it on and off. He is also responsible for the discharge and supply of gas.

There are several problems associated with the sensor. Firstly, this is an incorrect adjustment in relation to the pedal, as a result of which fuel consumption increases noticeably. Secondly, contacts burn, which leads to sensor failure.

The Lada clutch cable is the most important mechanism through which the clutch process is carried out. Its breakdown can lead to serious problems in the car, including loss of the ability to move.

Let's study the main stages of clutch cable repair.

It is necessary to inspect the cable along its entire length, starting from the clutch block.
Now you should disconnect the cable from the gearbox, and then from the clutch pedal.
Remember: in the glove compartment of your car you should definitely have a spare cable and some essential parts. If the problem occurs suddenly, it will not lead to catastrophic consequences. Armed with a new cable, replace the old one.
The cable is adjusted using the adjusting nut.
Check the adjustment by pressing the pedal twice.
Finally, you need to tighten the locknut.

Instructions for adjusting the clutch drive

Slipping. As a rule, it is first observed in higher gears, but later moves to lower ones. As the engine speed increases, the car's speed remains at the same level, and eventually the car refuses to move at all. Along with slipping, an unpleasant burning smell appears. If you notice these 2 symptoms, do not hesitate. Replacing the clutch cable is the bare minimum, but the problem could be even more serious. The main reason lies in the small free play of the pedal. The linings can also wear out and even components can be dismantled.
Incomplete release of the clutch. This problem occurs when engaging 1st gear, accompanied by a grinding noise. If you close your eyes to this, the gearbox will soon fly away. The cause of the problem is the increased free play of the clutch pedal.
The Lada Kalina car moves jerkily when the clutch is engaged. Impaired smooth running indicates severe wear of the linings, washers, damper springs and driven disk. The problem needs to be fixed immediately.
Pedal slip. When pressed, the pedal becomes “wobbly” and unruly, and as a result, the clutch is not fully engaged. A characteristic noise is heard, the pedal does not return to its place. The reason is that the spring is broken, and you cannot do without replacing individual parts, including the clutch cable.

Clutch design and functionality

The unit belongs to a cohort of mechanisms whose functioning is based on dry friction. The clutch mechanism in this model is single-disc and requires a pressure spring, which is structurally designed as an integral part of the basket. The cable is used to release the clutch. This action is activated when the advising pedal assembly is pressed. The cable transmission has a ratcheting device that allows it to autonomously change its length in accordance with the level of wear of the driven disk linings. This solution allows for a tight fit of the release bearing to the spring petals. Inside the basket there is a driven disk, through which rotation is directly transmitted from the flywheel to the input shaft of the transmission unit.

Pressing the designated pedal causes the cable to tighten, causing the special fork to rotate. Its lower bushing is integrated into the clutch housing. The upper element of the part, which is also presented in the form of a sleeve, is removable. During rotation, the fork, through the clutch and release bearing, acts directly on the petals of the pressure spring, which in turn opens the driven disk from the flywheel. In this way, the process of disengaging the clutch is implemented, which is necessary to ensure the ability to change gear in a mechanical transmission unit.

If the pedal is fully released, the disk tightly adjacent to the flywheel transmits torque to the input transmission shaft to its full extent.

In some cases, deviations from the correct functioning of the clutch assembly are observed. Among the signs characterizing this negative phenomenon are the following:

Increasing pedal travel when its value exceeds the regulated 146 mm.
Engaging the gearbox with the clutch pedal fully depressed is accompanied by characteristic grinding sounds of the shafts in the transmission, which indicates incomplete disengagement of the clutch.
Starting and subsequent operation of the Lada Kalina engine is accompanied by a howling sound coming from the clutch housing (release bearing wear).
The beginning of movement is characterized by jerks and insufficient clarity of gear switching.
Moving at 3-4 speeds, the owner presses the accelerator and observes the following picture: the speed of the power plant increases vigorously, and acceleration is accompanied by sluggishness. This indicates clutch “slippage,” that is, a loose fit of the disc to the flywheel, caused by increased wear of the linings or excessive cable tension.

All these signs overwhelmingly hint to the owner that it is necessary to adjust the cable drive. How to adjust the clutch? You should also be inclined to such a procedure after replacing the clutch mechanism, the compensator loses its functionality (lack of the ability to autonomously adjust the length) or the Lada Kalina car has been idle for a long time.

3.1.2 Clutch repair / VAZ 2110

Recommendation

A mandrel for centering the driven disk can be made to fit the dimensions of the input shaft or use an old input shaft instead.

1. Remove the gearbox from the car (see subsection 3.2.2).

2. Install the mandrel into the pressure plate hole.

3. Remove the six bolts securing the clutch housing. At the same time, use a screwdriver to hold the flywheel from turning, having first screwed in one of the gearbox mounting bolts. Remove the clutch housing assembly with the pressure plate and driven disc installed inside the housing. Hold the driven disk while doing this, otherwise it may fall out.

4. Cracks on the driven disk parts are not allowed. Check the wear of friction linings 1. If the heads of the rivets 2 are recessed to a distance of less than 0.2 mm, the surface of the friction linings is oily or the rivet joints are loose, then the driven disk must be replaced. Check the reliability of the damper springs 3 in the sockets of the driven disk hub; if the springs are broken, the disk must be replaced.

5. Check the runout of the driven disk if warping is detected during a visual inspection. If the runout value exceeds 0.5 mm, replace the disc.

Inspect the working friction surfaces of the flywheel and pressure plate, paying attention to the absence of deep marks, scuffs, nicks, obvious signs of wear and overheating. Replace defective components.

If the rivet connections 1 of the casing parts and the pressure disk are loosened, replace the casing with the pressure disk assembly. Using an external inspection, evaluate the condition of the diaphragm spring 2 of the pressure plate. Cracks on the diaphragm spring are not allowed. The contact points of the spring petals with the clutch release bearing must be in the same plane and have no obvious signs of wear (the amount of wear should not exceed 0.8 mm). Otherwise, replace the housing and pressure plate assembly.

8. Using an external inspection, evaluate the condition of the support rings of the pressure spring. The rings should not have cracks or signs of wear. Otherwise, replace the housing and pressure plate assembly.

9. In the workshop you can check the condition of the clutch drive part. To do this, secure the pressure disk 3 assembled with the pressure spring 1 and casing 2 to a device with an intermediate ring 4 with a thickness of B = (8.3 ± 0.04) mm. This device replaces the flywheel with a driven disk. Disengage the clutch three times with a release stroke of 8–9 mm, applying a load to the petals of pressure spring 1 at a diameter of C = 34 mm. In this case: – check that the shutdown stroke (8.0±0.1) mm corresponds to the pressure plate stroke of at least 1.4 mm; – the difference in the withdrawal values of the pressure plate 3 is no more than 0.25 mm; – size A must be within (29–31) mm; – the load on the petals of pressure spring 1 at diameter C with a stroke of (8.0±0.1) mm should be no more than 1100 N (1350 N for the VAZ-2112 clutch), the peak release load should not be more than 1300 N (1500 N for the clutch VAZ-2112).

10. Before installing the clutch, check that the driven disk moves easily along the splines of the transmission input shaft. If necessary, eliminate the causes of jamming or replace defective parts.

11. Please note that when installing the driven disk into the pressure plate housing, the more protruding part of the hub should be directed towards the pressure spring.

12. Insert the centering mandrel into the splines of the driven disk from the pressure spring side.

13. Install the clutch onto the flywheel along the three centering pins (shown by arrows) and tighten the six bolts securing the clutch to the flywheel evenly diagonally, holding the flywheel from turning. After this, remove the centering mandrel and install the gearbox.

To make a replacement you will need to put your car on a pit or a lift. Repairs are also possible if you have reliable supports and a jack. It is worth noting that without a pit or lift, the replacement method without removing the box, which is described at the end of the article, is suitable.

Important to know: For work, it is best to use a set of sockets with a ratchet. When directly dismantling the manual transmission, ask someone to help you “pull” it off

To replace the VP without removing the box, you will need two studs with a diameter of 10 mm and a length of 30-35 mm.

How to remove the gearbox and release bearing on Kalina 2 (1.4-1.6 8kl) with your own hands

Replacing the release bearing on a Lada Kalina begins with dismantling the gearbox; this process is described in detail in step-by-step instructions with photos/videos. Perform the operations in order.

Open the hood of the car and immediately remove the battery.
Next, remove the air filter by unscrewing the clamp and disconnecting the fastenings to the body.

The clutch cable is located behind the battery; you need to unscrew the nut and disconnect the cable from the fastener.
Now disconnect the plug of the speed sensor wire, it is located behind the “engine”, in the area of the pipes.

Next, find the upper bolts securing the gearbox to the engine and unscrew them.

The last operations on top of the gearbox are unscrewing the starter and its terminals, as well as disconnecting the clutch cable and electrical wiring.

Remove the front wheels and tighten the hub nuts. We disconnect the protection (mud flaps) under the wing.

Immediately disconnect the terminal of the reversing lights wire.

Nearby there is a suspension beam, first twist the rear nut with a 24mm wrench.
Now we move on to the ball joints, loosen the nuts and remove them on both sides.

On the same side of the manual transmission we find the oil drain plug, unscrew it and drain it into any container.
Between the manual transmission and the engine there is a clutch protective cover. To remove it, unscrew the nuts around the perimeter.

Let's move on to dismantling the gearshift mechanism. First, unscrew the two bolts and remove the cover.
Then unscrew the screw that secures the linkage connection.

The next step is to remove the wheel drive shafts from the gearbox on both sides.

First stage

Clutch disc VAZ 2109

Until the last moment, you can doubt whether it is possible to replace the clutch without completely removing the box, because you don’t want the massive gearbox to fall to the ground. But lifting it is problematic, since it is impossible to crawl under the car with it. First, disconnect the battery by de-energizing the system. So the whole story begins - start preparing the car for repairs, removing all unnecessary elements. Namely:

Twist the wheels and move them to the side so they don't get in the way.
Remove the tie rod ends to free up the struts.
Remove the two bolts that secure the ball joint.
Remove the engine protection.
Drain the oil from the box.
Loosen the nut on the rocker and remove it.
Remove all nuts from the bolts on the two pads.
Place a support or jack under the engine.
Disable the reverse sensor.
Disconnect the wires from the starter and remove it by unscrewing the three nuts.
Unscrew the nuts from the flywheel protection.
Remove the inner CV joint on the right side, do not touch the left one.
Unscrew the three bolts securing the gearbox to the block.
Unscrew the nut above the right CV joint.

Methods for checking the technical condition of a friction clutch

When the pedal is released, torque should be transmitted from the motor to the transmission without loss. Smooth inclusion and absence of jerking indicates normal operation of the unit. Before replacing a faulty clutch on Kalina, you should perform the following measures:

Check the clutch pedal travel.
Press the pedal and make sure there are no jams or extraneous noises.
Measure the distance from the floor to the outer surface of the pedal (factory size – 146 mm).
Check gear engagement with the engine running.
Check for smooth operation, absence of slipping and burning smell.

The presence of any of the following deficiencies may indicate a malfunction:

release bearing;
drive cable;
pressure plate;
driven disk.

When troubleshooting breakdowns, experienced motorists advise changing all parts at the same time. Even if, say, the problem was in the driven disk, then it would be correct to install a new basket and release bearing at the same time, and not wait for the next breakdown and disassemble the assembly again.

Description of design

Clutch Surely, while in a driving school, everyone took a course on the design of transmission components, but it’s unlikely that everyone went into all the details and, I must say, in vain. Knowledge of the design and principles of operation will allow the owner to identify a breakdown at an early stage, take measures to eliminate it and avoid large costs for major repairs. Therefore, let’s briefly consider the components of the clutch of a Lada Kalina car:

casing;
release bearing;
pressure disk;
driven disk;
drive cable;
fork lever;
cable length adjustment mechanism.

The type of friction clutch used on this model is single disc, dry with a diaphragm type spring. The aluminum casing is integral with the gearbox. Modifications involve the installation of two types of transmission components - with a diameter of 190 and 200 mm. You can determine which one is used in a particular car by the number of starter mounting bolts: two – 200 mm and, if there are three bolts, then – 190 mm.

The clutch housing is secured to the flywheel with six screws. Three pins on the flywheel fit into corresponding holes in the housing, thereby centering it. As the linings wear out, the cable length changes automatically and does not require intervention from the owner.

Replacing the clutch and release bearing of a VAZ 2114 without removing the box

Replacing the clutch and release bearing of a VAZ 2114 (VAZ 2108, 2109) without removing the box, drives (grenades) and draining.

It is noteworthy that when installing new parts, the length of the lower threaded part of the cable tip is usually not enough to restore its original position.

Therefore, it is necessary to restore the wear compensation mechanism to its original position. To do this, size L must be installed between the leash and the clutch release fork lever.

The clutch pedal should be raised all the way up. Replacing the VAZ 2110 clutch without removing the box. Replacing the LADA Priora clutch with and without removal. Then the spring will automatically return the slider to its original position. After this, all that remains is to check the result of the work and, if necessary, adjust the clutch

Reference!

Clutch - thanks to this mechanism, torque is transmitted from the transmission to the engine. The transmission itself is carried out thanks to the presence of a clutch cable, which connects the mechanism to the gearbox, due to which the start, braking and gear shifting take place.

Installation

Before installing a new cable, be sure to check the condition of the plastic sleeve attached to the pedal pin. If it is very worn, then replacement is required. When everything is in order, then simply lubricate it with Lithol.

The cable on Kalina is installed like this:

pass it through the hole in the front end (proceed from the interior side);
install the sealing cover;
attach the ratchet mechanism to the pedal;
screw a leash onto the end of the cable (the one with the thread);
insert the latter into the cut of the clutch fork.

clutch mechanism

on Lada Kalina on your own

Just like what remains to be done for our client “basins”, Kalina is not at all ideal. Over its very ten-year history, the model has been refined more than once, but it was not even possible to get rid of some problems.

Among the “Kalinovodov” it is recognized that the torque transmission mechanism, due to its own design features, is the weak link of the car.

Regardless of what remains to be done for our client to modernize in this direction, car owners sometimes have to adjust the clutch.

Features of the VAZ 2112 clutch

The machine is equipped with a dry-type single-disc friction clutch with a central pressure spring. Every motorist, how to adjust the clutch on Kalina, must take into account that the control pedal is connected to the disc by means of a cable with a special ratcheting mechanism.

As a result of intense use, the friction linings of the disc wear out evenly.

The ratcheting mechanism integrated into the design of the drive allows for a certain period of time to compensate for wear - it gradually tightens the cable.

The purpose of this design is to facilitate the maintenance process. According to the plans of VAZ engineers, the mechanism should free the owner from the need to make adjustments without the help of others. But this remains for our client only at a theoretical level, but in reality it turns out that it will not be possible without the clutch option.

When should adjustments be made?

Before adjusting the clutch

on a Kalina car, you need to find the moment when the auto-locking of the cable no longer works. This is not difficult, especially since the machine itself talks about problems:

Loss of traction, friction clutch does not provide a reliable connection between the flywheel and the disk. The consequence of such a deficiency will be the loss of a significant part of the torque.
The clutch control pedal does not return to its original position, which, in fact, is a consequence of the first point.
Bad clutch disengagement - the pedal is not pressed fully, which makes changing gears difficult.

My channel subscribe friends.

The symptoms, in general, are similar to those when clutch adjustment is needed on a VAZ 2107, so car owners with experience have options to skip the myth block and proceed directly to the check.

How to check the clutch?

To ensure that the mechanism needs to be adjusted, you should perform a number of simple checks:

Press the pedal a couple of times and release - any extraneous sounds are unacceptable. For better control, there is an option to press with your hand, this way you can feel the pedal stroke more.
Check the pedal for jamming; if it turns with tangible twitching, then adjustment will be necessary.

Check the full travel of the pedal using rulers (also called tape measures). Press and release the pedal a couple of times, then measure the distance of its outer edge to the floor; if it is not just 146 mm, then the mechanism needs to be adjusted.
Check the movement of the cable guide relative to the clutch release fork; the largest distance between these elements is 27 mm.
If the runout of the driven disk linings is more than 0.5 mm, adjustment is also required.

When performing checks, it is important that the car engine is turned off.

It is necessary to start work no earlier than the engine has cooled down one hundred percent. The setup method is simple and does not require a visit to a car service center, because our client can do what remains to be done himself. The step-by-step scheme for performing the work is as follows:

Before adjusting the clutch drive on Kalina, you should open the hood of the engine compartment and remove the air filter.
Visually assess the condition of the cable casing and replace it if the passage is damaged.
Pull the tip towards you personally so that the cable takes full tension. Later, check the distance between the fork and the leash with a caliper.
If the measurements show more than 27 mm, then the distance is adjusted by rotating the driver along the thread of the tip.
Press and release the clutch pedal a couple of times and repeat the measurements.
If you need to repeat the adjustment until the required standards are obtained.

Replacement instructions

The clutch transmits torque from the transmission to the engine. The transmission is carried out thanks to the clutch cable, which connects the power unit to the gearbox and ensures starting the car, shifting gears and braking. Thanks to the lever mechanism, the car is set in motion.

Which clutch should you choose?

There are several types of clutch, differing:

principle of operation: electrical, mechanical and combined;
working medium: air and oil bath;
mechanism: closed and alternately closed groups of mechanisms;
number of disks: single-, double- and multi-disc;
number of springs: with one or several;
two-stream.

The clutch is a complex mechanism, so before replacing it on your Lada Kalina yourself, you should carefully study the design and features of the mechanism.

Lada Kalina clutch

On VAZ 1117, 1118 and 1119 clutches of 190 and 200 mm are installed. The diameter can be determined by the number of starter mounting bolts. For 190 mm there are 3 of them, and for 200 mm – 2. The clutch kit includes a clutch disc, basket and release bearing. The most popular brands are: Valeo, Sachs, Luk, VIS, Kraft.

When using a drive from other models, you need to pay attention to the flywheel, the type of which is determined by the number of starter pins. There are two of them in the Lada Kalina, three in the VAZ 2108

The clutch resource depends on the components and operating conditions. A high-quality drive can last for 100 thousand kilometers.

If troubles occur with the clutch on the road, it is better to call a tow truck or have the car towed by another vehicle, otherwise this may lead to gearbox failure.

Tools

To replace the clutch, the car must be raised, since some of the work is performed from below. To do this, you can use a lift, overpass or inspection pit. From the tools and materials for the replacement procedure with your own hands, you need to prepare:

new kit;
set of tools;
engine support;
container for draining oil;
clean rags.

New clutch kit
When removing the gearbox, the oil must be drained. If you carry out the work yourself, then you need to drain all the lubricant. If you have an assistant, you can drain some of the liquid from the wires so that oil does not leak when they are disconnected.

Stages

To carry out the replacement yourself, you need to place the car on an overpass or provide access to the bottom of the car in another way. Replacing the clutch on a Lada Kalina consists of:

Initially, work is carried out from above. To do this, open the hood.

Engine compartment of Lada Kalina

Driven disk

You also need to evaluate the condition of the pressure and diaphragm springs; they should not be damaged or scuffed. If there are any, they must be replaced. If there are defects on the diaphragm spring, the casing with the pressure disk is replaced. Next, you should check the movement of the discs, it should be smooth. If there is jamming, it is necessary to determine the cause and eliminate it. Having completed all the replacements, you can begin reassembly. When installing the basket, you should center the disc inside it.

Basket

The driven disk is installed first, and then the pressure disk housing. In this case, the bolts must be tightened evenly over the entire diameter. Next, the gearbox is installed. Then you need to attach the clutch drive to the gearbox and install the cable in its original place.

What you need for work

The work is done both from above (access under the hood) and under the car, that is, we either drive it onto an overpass or use an inspection hole in the garage. You will also need:

clutch kit;
a set of keys;
engine support (can be hung on a hoist in the garage);
vessel for draining oil from the gearbox.

We perform the following actions:

Remove the air filter and corrugation.
We disconnect all the wiring and terminals from the battery and remove it too.
Unscrew the starter power wires.
We separate the cable and wiring from the gearbox.
Remove the engine crankcase protection.
We clean the entire space where the gearbox connects to the engine and unscrew it.
We remove the engine mount, either place a jack under it, or hang it on a hoist.
We unscrew the drive shafts from the gearbox, the “crab” attached to the box.
All that remains is to disconnect the gearbox from the engine and begin replacement.
The bolts securing the release disc housing to the flywheel are unscrewed. Clamp the flywheel with a screwdriver. The bolts are unscrewed sequentially in half a turn, moving in a circle.
Remove the clutch discs. Even if there is no visible damage to them, we put it off. Check the flywheel for chips and scratches.
We begin installing everything removed and disassembled into its place. When installing the basket, center the disk inside it.
First we install the driven disk, then the pressure disk housing.
The bolts must be tightened evenly in a circle.
We screw the gearbox to the engine.
We combine the gearbox with wiring and cable.
We adjust the cable - now this is necessary for the correct functioning of the system, you already know how to do this.

Even if the clutch pedal in your car clicks, don’t put it off for a long time. Fixing a minor fault is always much easier, faster and cheaper. You can do almost any locksmith work on repairing the Lada Kalina yourself, without resorting to the help of a car repair shop, and, having completed the repair, experience the incomparable pleasure when the car starts up and drives.

Good luck on the roads!

Next, the air filter is removed along with the corrugation. The next step is to remove the battery. The terminals and all the wires that go to it are disconnected, and then the battery itself is removed. Next, the wires from the starter are disconnected. At the junction of the gearbox and the power unit, remove all wires and unscrew the bolts securing the gearbox to the engine. After the top work we will move under the car. First of all, the protection is removed from the crankcase. Then you need to pull out the wires from the gearbox and remove the cable fastening. Next, the drive shafts are removed and the “crab” attached to the box is unscrewed. Then you need to remove the gearshift driveshaft. Next, remove the support. Before removing the box, place a support under the engine. We remove the gearbox and proceed to the clutch. First you need to unscrew the 6 bolts that secure the release plate housing to the flywheel. To prevent the flywheel from turning, it must be held with a screwdriver. The bolts should be loosened slowly, one turn at a time, moving in turn from one to another along the diameter. Carefully removing the discs, you need to inspect them. There should be no cracks or scratches on the pressure plate and flywheel. You also need to check how worn the friction linings are. If necessary, new parts must be supplied. Driven disk You also need to evaluate the condition of the pressure and diaphragm springs; they should not be damaged or scuffed. If there are any, they must be replaced.
