AVTOVAZ recommends performing maintenance (MOT) for cars of the Lada Granta and Lada Kalina family every 15,000 km or every year (whichever comes first). It is also recommended that during the warranty period, maintenance be performed only at an official LADA dealer, with a mandatory note about the work being carried out in the service book coupons. It is worth noting that the maintenance regulations differ depending on the year of manufacture of the car.

Maintenance schedule for Lada Granta and Kalina 2

AVTOVAZ recommends performing maintenance (MOT) for cars of the Lada Granta and Lada Kalina family every 15,000 km or every year (whichever comes first). It is also recommended that during the warranty period, maintenance be performed only at an official LADA dealer, with a mandatory note about the work being carried out in the service book coupons.

Features of design solutions in the front suspension

The front suspension in the LADA Granta is based on the following aspects:

  • independent design with hydraulic shock absorbers;
  • a pair of wishbones;
  • anti-roll bar;
  • the levers are equipped with auxiliary braces;
  • the spring, combined with the shock absorber into a single strut, has a conical profile and coils of variable cross-section.

The shock absorber strut is connected to the steering knuckle by a lower bracket. The design feature is that during a turn with a fist, the shock absorber and spring rotate. The scheme is very simple. This solution made it possible to preserve the technological hole in the shock absorber body, which helps to increase its service life.

The pillar supports have undergone some modifications, which made it possible to get rid of unpleasant squeaks and increase the strength characteristics of the structure.

The transverse stabilizer is based on spring steel. Its middle part is fixed to the body, both end sections are fixed to the mounting points of the transverse arms.

The modernized front suspension of the domestic Lada Granta differs from its counterpart in other representatives of the model range due to the increased steering angle of the wheels. The value of the so-called cluster reached 2° 45`. The undeniable advantage of this solution is the improvement of directional stability, especially when driving at high speeds. The other side of the coin is the slightly increased required force that should be applied to the steering wheel during a turn. If you believe the reviews of the owners, this moment is almost imperceptible.

This is due to the modernization of the steering control unit, namely:

  • integration into the unit of an amplifier with an increased compensating effect;
  • use of a short-throw steering rack.

This approach resulted in improved handling and resulted in a reduction in the number of steering wheel rotations. And the steering wheel itself now has more information and sensitivity.

Based on reviews from LADA Granta owners, one can judge that the designers have adopted a design solution that is strange for the modern era of automotive manufacturing - this is when a standard suspension is used and there is no power steering in the steering mechanism. Can this solution be interpreted as a way to reduce the cost of the design?

Switches and levers under the steering wheel

The right switch under the steering wheel is responsible for the window cleaner and washer. The switch turns on electrical circuits when the ignition is on. The switch lever can be moved to the following positions

0 - windshield wiper and washer off

1 — intermittent wiper operation mode is on (non-fixed position)

2 — intermittent wiper operation mode is turned on (fixed position). In intermittent operating mode, the windshield wiper blades make one stroke at regular intervals of several seconds, regardless of the presence of drops on the windshield (in a variant, an automatic wiper control system is installed

3 - low speed windshield wiper enabled

4 - high speed windshield wiper enabled

5 — by moving the lever toward you, the windshield washer is turned on (not a fixed position)

Cooling

Parameters and technical characteristics of the Lada Granta.
Lada Granta VAZ 219010. Lada Granta model 219010 To cool the air in the cabin, do the following:

  1. Switch switch 1 (see Fig. 2) of the electric fan operating modes to one of the positions “1”, “2”, “3” or “4”.
  2. Place the regulator handle 4 opposite the pictogram.
  3. In the 3 pushbutton switch block, press the air conditioner switch key. The indicator located on the switch button will light green all the time the air conditioner is operating.

When the air passing through the evaporator cools, the water vapor contained in it condenses. The condensate is drained through a drain pipe under the bottom of the car. If the ambient air humidity is high, a puddle of water may form under the car, which is an indirect sign that the air conditioning system is working properly.

Turning on the air conditioner while the engine is running under difficult conditions (long climbs, heavy city traffic, etc.) can lead to engine overheating. Monitor the coolant temperature gauge: if the temperature exceeds the permissible value, turn off the air conditioner. During long trips in city traffic, the efficiency of the air conditioner may decrease due to the intense thermal conditions of the engine. This is not a sign of malfunction; the air conditioner will operate effectively when driving under normal road conditions.

  • air duct grants
  • air conditioning grants
  • stove grants

Lada Granta has become a really popular car. And, in many ways, this happened thanks to the affordable price and good components. For example, the stove installed on the Lada Granta is quite good, as it warms up the interior to the required level very quickly. AvtoVAZ engineers did a very good job on this issue, since for our harsh winters the issue of high-quality heating of the interior is very relevant.

How to adjust the front seats

Before driving, adjust your seat position so that you feel comfortable behind the wheel. An uncomfortable seating position increases fatigue, which can negatively affect driving safety. The front seats are adjustable in the longitudinal direction (back and forth), by the angle of the backrest and the height of the headrests. The seat adjustment is considered correct when the straightened left leg rests with the entire foot on the floor under the clutch pedal, and the arms, slightly bent at the elbows, lie on the steering wheel wheel in the “10 minutes to 2 o’clock” position. Sit on the seat and check how comfortable it is to drive.

If you need to adjust the seatback angle, turn the hinge handle. The backrest rises or falls when the handle is rotated in the appropriate direction.

If you need to move the seat forward or backward, lift the handle located under the seat and move it with the seat in the desired direction, then release the handle. Move back and forth slightly until the seat locks into place.

To adjust the height of the headrest, move it up or down. Spring clips will hold the headrest in the selected position.

What is the rear suspension like?

Unlike the front suspension, the rear suspension of the Lada Granta chassis is practically devoid of innovations. As before, its basic element is a rigid torsion beam, as the diagram shows. It is attached to the body by means of hinges, and its swinging arms are equipped with support posts. The last components are shock-absorbing struts with spring elements.

If you believe the reviews, then this rear suspension allowed the car to acquire serious advantages over its competitors:

  • high energy intensity (it is noted that the degree of loading is not capable of having a significant negative impact on the behavior of the car);
  • increased reliability (due to the simplicity of the design aspects of the suspension, its elements may need repairs no more than every 100 thousand km);
  • a simple design solution, which makes it possible to carry out repairs with the simplest tools and the owner’s basic experience.

Among the minor changes that affected this model and distinguish it from the Priora, there is a negative camber of the stern wheels (-1°). A slight positive toe-in (0.1°) should also be highlighted. These solutions are aimed at ensuring increased directional stability.
