Review of modifications to the crankcase protection on the Lada Granta Liftback. Do-it-yourself installation


Crankcase protection function Grants Liftback

The main functions of the armor are:

  • oil pan protection;
  • transmissions from mechanical damage while driving;
  • accidental deformation when hitting obstacles.

The design of the sheet is made so as to fit as closely as possible to the pallet and not take away the height from the ground clearance.

Owners are not always satisfied with the standard protection, workmanship, and material. It is often practiced to install another modification. We will look at how to do this yourself and what is needed for this in this article.

Composite materials

Nowadays, protective trays made of composite materials are very popular, especially on imported cars. The most common is fiberglass. What is he like? In short, it is a composite material made using a special technology, which includes special reinforcing glass threads.


Fiberglass tray

Typically, the protection consists of six layers of reinforcing material, which are bonded together with a special resin.

pros

  1. The engine sump, made of composite materials, is quite durable. Some samples of carbon fiber are used in the construction of spaceships and Formula 1 cars.
  2. A big advantage when compared with metal protection is that during a collision this protection bursts. This allows the engine to go in the right direction. Carbon fiber can last longer because it does not corrode.
  3. During production, it is possible to create pallets of any shape that fully correspond to the geometry of the engine with all the necessary technological holes provided.
  4. The composite protection springs during impacts and this protects it from deformation.
  5. Very light weight, the usual weight of standard protection is up to four kilograms.
  6. Very resistant to aggressive environments.
  7. Silent.
  8. Does not reduce ground clearance.


Kevlar tray

Minuses

  • Among the negative aspects, it is worth noting the much higher cost than metal, as well as more complex repairs;
  • Defective products are very common;
  • If the production process has not been fully followed, the composite may, under certain conditions, release harmful substances.

What types of crankcase protection are there for the Lada Granta Liftback?

  • factory all-metal;
  • all-metal custom analogues;
  • one-piece construction made of polymer material, polyvinyl chloride.

The original armor is made of a sheet 2.0 mm thick, analogues have a thickness from 2.0 to 3.5 mm, depending on the material and technical characteristics.

The methods for fixing the plates are identical: with four bolts around the perimeter of the sheet in the standard holes. The exception is extended protection. They are fixed from the back to the lower suspension mount (silent block).

Steel

Steel is the most common material used in the production of oil pans for quite a long time.

pros

The main advantages of steel protection are:

  • fairly simple recovery after a strong blow - straightening;
  • high rigidity;
  • low price.


Steel pallet

Minuses

  1. However, in addition to the undoubted advantages, there are also several disadvantages, the main one of which is corrosion.
  2. Poorly made pallets can resonate strongly while driving, creating unpleasant sounds.
  3. Sometimes the protection touches the crankcase of the power unit, and this can cause holes to appear through which oil begins to flow.
  4. The weight of the protective sheet is very large, sometimes it can reach up to fifteen kilograms.
  5. Significantly reduces ground clearance, as a result of which the car, on rough terrain, can, as drivers say, “lie to the bottom.”
  6. Incorrectly made or incorrectly installed steel protection very often prevents the motor from running away, thereby creating a danger during a collision.

Recommendations for choosing an accessory for the Lada Granta Liftback

When choosing manufacturers, give preference to original designs. With a greater degree of probability, we can claim 100% compatibility of fasteners - bolt holes.

Purchasing custom protections does not always guarantee compatibility in terms of fasteners, width, and length. Often, owners independently finish the holes to fit the mounting bolts.

The choice of manufacturer depends on the owner’s decision and the cost of the part. Service center technicians recommend purchasing accessories with factory stamping and stiffeners. This design is stronger than all-sheet analogues.

Main selection criteria

The main requirement for protection is rigidity. If the protective pallet is made of flexible material, then even a moderate impact can have catastrophic consequences. The impact through such protection will go into the crankcase, causing its damage. Such protection is simply meaningless.

If you decide to install a metal protective tray, make sure that its thickness is at least 3 millimeters. Otherwise, the sheet will simply not be able to withstand possible impacts.

A very important factor is the weight of the protection. It must be remembered that when designing a designer, they clearly calculate the weight distribution of the body. This means that any load on the suspension can upset the proportions specified by the manufacturer.


SUV with protection

You should not lose attention to such an important factor as safety during a traffic accident. The protective pan should not affect the body deformation model envisaged by the designers.

Another important point worth paying attention to is noiselessness. As a rule, noise occurs when the pan comes into contact with the subframe and all this can be heard very well in the cabin when driving.

When choosing protection for your car, be sure to follow these recommendations and be sure to take into account 4 main parameters:

  • high rigidity;
  • as little weight as possible;
  • safety during a collision;
  • silent while driving.

Sequence of actions when installing crankcase protection Lada Granta Liftback

  1. We place the car within the perimeter of the repair area, an inspection hole.
  2. We provide priority safety measures: install wheel chocks, squeeze the handbrake.
  3. We remove the plastic boot located in the standard structure above the sheet. It blocks access to the radiator of the cooling system, preventing its mechanical damage.
  4. Along the perimeter, unscrew the four mounting bolts to “17” and remove the plate.
  5. We put new armor in its original place and screw the structure on.

It is important to know!!! In the case of installing a long guard that covers part of the transmission, the fixation method is different. We put the rear eyes on the lower mount of the front suspension (silent blocks). First unscrew the nuts.
