Preparing for theft when servicing a car.
The factory routinely installs fundamentally new anti-theft protection. Stealing a Lada Vesta requires serious technical training and modern equipment.
One of the most common methods of theft is the so-called preparation for theft when servicing a car. For example, during a wash or repair, the owner hands over the key and key fob. An attacker can quietly make an impression of the key, register a new key fob in the system memory and restore the starter circuit, blocked by the standard alarm, in a short period of time. After service, as a rule, car thieves do not immediately steal the car, but several days or even weeks later, in order to eliminate suspicion of a car service.
A good prevention against this kind of theft is to switch the alarm system to “Valet” mode. After carrying out the work, it is necessary to return the alarm to its original security mode. You should not give your car keys and key fob to service stations and car washes.
To protect the diagnostic connector, the connector re-pinning method or the OBD block system are used.
Ugona.net Blocking the OBD Block diagnostic connector RUB 9,000. Price with installation
The OBD BLOCK system is designed to protect the vehicle's OBD-II diagnostic connector from unauthorized access. Using the system helps prevent hacking of standard software when connected to the OBD diagnostic connector, etc.
Steel
This material is in greatest demand, since this option combines two selection criteria: price + quality. 2 mm thick steel sheets perfectly protect the crankcase. The average service life of steel protection is 7-10 years; in case of deformation, it can be easily restored. Such a part is optimal for Lada Vesta, due to its high rigidity and budget cost. Steel protection copes with its main functions, protecting the motor boat and gearbox from damage.
Many car enthusiasts prefer parts with stiffening ribs, believing that the ribs resist deformation by hard, cutting objects. However, there is also an opinion: at critical pressure, the crankcase will better protect a part with a smooth surface, evenly distributing the load. The main disadvantage is considered to be high susceptibility to corrosion, from which even powder coating and special application technology cannot protect.
Protection of the engine compartment.
To protect the engine compartment from hacking and theft of the electronic control unit, a universal electromechanical hood lock kit is used.

A set of universal electromechanical hood lock, developed by order of experts from the Federal service Ugona.net. Protection against theft, theft of car parts, deactivation of sirens.
In addition to the lock, we recommend installing a steel casing to protect the ECU.
The main principle of protection against theft of Lada Vesta is to install a security system, which involves a set of electronic and mechanical means.
Which deflector to install on Lada Vesta: manufacturers and prices
You can purchase a set of windshields and a fly swatter directly from a car dealer in a store or order it online (for example, on AliExpress from the photo). The method of purchase, choice of manufacturer, color of the device completely depends on the preferences of the car owner. You just have to take into account the car model: sedan or SW Cross.
The automotive market is replete with an assortment of deflectors for Lada Vesta. Most purchased brands:
- Vip-Tuning (fly swatter - 850 rubles, set - 1100 rubles);
- COBRA TUNING (deflectors for CB windows at a price of 1600 rubles).
AvtoVAZ offers original accessories at high prices. On the official Lada website you can buy fly swatters for the Lada Vesta sedan, SW and Cross for RUB 4,134. But the cost of the kit for sedan and cross cars is 2996 rubles, for Vesta SW and SW Cross – 3035 rubles.
Analogs from other manufacturers are cheaper:
- Azard - 1000-1200 rub.
- Vinguru — 1800-1900 rub.
- Rival - 900-1000 rubles.
- Autofamily — 1500 rub.
The difference in price depends on the quality of the material. The cost is affected by the color of the accessory (black, gray or transparent), and the presence of chrome molding.
Material and types of deflectors
The Lada car dealer produces deflectors for the Lada Vesta SV Cross, sedan and SV from aircraft-grade polycarbonate, which are reliable in harsh weather. By purchasing an accessory directly from a car dealer, you can be sure of the correct size.

Analogues are made of plastic with a thickness of approximately 2 to 4 mm. Narrower or thicker versions are fake and are more likely to cause damage to the car.
There are two types of deflectors:
- Adhesive based.
- Plug-in devices.
The first option is more popular due to ease of installation (attachment to the car with double-sided tape). Some companies (Cobra, Azard, Vinguru, etc.) produce only adhesive types. The main thing when buying is to check whether the tape is peeling: otherwise the accessory will not last long.
The plug-in version is gradually disappearing from the shelves of car dealerships due to the fact that the window lifting mechanism of cars with such wind deflectors wears out faster. The accessory is inserted into the car body, which was not originally intended for installation.
Selection of deflectors for Vesta sedan
Low-grade deflectors on the Vesta sedan are dangerous for the paintwork of the car and can cause rust.

The Lada Vesta sedan is more often purchased by people living in the city. Due to speed restrictions, the windshield on the hood of the Vesta sedan is more of a decoration than a protection. A gap forms between the hood and the fly swatter, which is almost impossible to clean. Dust accumulates there every day, and after rain and a car wash, humidity rises, which gradually spoils the appearance of the car.
Choosing windshields for Vesta station wagon
When choosing deflectors for the windows of the Lada Vesta SV Cross, you must definitely check the conformity of their shape. Otherwise, skewed windshields will ruin the appearance of the car.

The dimensions of the station wagon provide for the installation of a wider type of accessory (9 cm). On smaller cars this option will look too massive. The number of windshields in the set may also differ - 4-6 pieces (2 spare).
What can cause crankcase damage?
The main enemy of protection is off-road conditions, potholes, bumps, and driving on rough terrain. If a sheet of iron comes into contact with the ground surface, the protection deforms.
The second problem is the car’s curb weight of 1300 kg. Hitting rocks and bumps at speeds over 60 km/h damages the metal surface of the armor.
The durability of the aluminum engine sump cover is several times lower than that of steel. Hitting a concrete curb at a speed of 45 km/h causes a crack in the oil pan.
Another important factor that must be taken into account when choosing and installing armor is metal fatigue of sheet steel and the negative impact of different environmental temperature conditions.
Poor installation of the “sheet” can also cause damage to the oil pan. Loose fasteners sag, bolts break the aluminum pan cover, and engine oil leaks.
Installation of wind deflectors - instructions
Wind deflectors for windows, roof or hood are selected for a specific model. There are no universal windshields, because every car model has its own design. Branded manufacturers produce such elements, but there are also Chinese ones. Original windshields are more expensive than copies.
Reference! During installation of windshields, the ambient temperature should not be below +10 degrees.
How to install deflectors by gluing? Some models already come with adhesive tape. They are glued to the door frame. This option makes the work of car owners easier, but forces them to take the process as responsibly as possible. If the deflector is installed incorrectly, it will have to be re-glued or left skewed.
Installation checklist:
- You must choose a dry and warm place. The body must be washed and dried. To work, you will need a clean rag and degreasing liquid;
- Remove the protective packaging from the windshield (this is plastic film);
- Next, you need to measure the installation sites;
- When you have chosen the right place for the deflector, you need to wash it well and degrease it;
- The protective film peels off from the adhesive layer on the front and back of the windshield by about three centimeters;
- The ends need to be brought up, and the element itself must be placed in the selected place and glued with light pressure;
- When you are sure that everything is done correctly, you can remove part of the film from the adhesive layer;
- Then press it against the door frame along its entire length. The same operation is performed with the remaining doors.
The need to install crankcase protection on Lada Vesta
Unlike European brands, which are designed for “ideal” roads, the engines of domestic VAZs need to be protected with a metal frame. The quality of the road surface in the periphery is very low, sometimes even non-existent.
In order to increase cross-country ability, engineers increased the ground clearance on the Lada Vesta to 171 mm. After installing 15-inch tires, you can count on a ground clearance of 174 mm.
With this level of ground clearance and pre-installed armor, the underbody of the vehicle is completely protected from damage.
The need to install deflectors on Vesta windows
Aesthetic point - installation is popular, since it is perhaps the cheapest tuning option. It is not surprising that drivers do not miss the opportunity to emphasize the image of the Lada without special expenses.
Fogging of windows - this problem haunts Vesta owners while driving in the rain. The difference in temperature outside and inside the car causes condensation to occur. If you open the window even a little, he will disappear, but no one will do this in the rain. Deflectors do not allow drops to enter Vesta’s interior.
The sector covered by the deflector is clearly shown.
Cigarette smoke – there are many smokers among Vesta drivers who notice that keeping the glass slightly open while smoking does not solve the problem, as the wind pushes the smoke back into the Vesta’s cabin. The same applies to cigarette ash thrown out the window. By purchasing a deflector, such situations can be avoided.
This device perfectly protects against cigarette smoke.
Visibility - there are often situations when driving a Vesta in rain or snow led to moisture or melting snow getting on the windows, which significantly limits visibility into the side mirrors of the Lada Vesta, and even leads to the appearance of dead zones. And when driving, windshield wipers wipe water onto the mirrors and side windows. As a result, streaks form on the glass.

- Unscrew the eight screws to “13”.
- We omit the factory reservation.
- We install a new one, tighten the fasteners.
Aluminum
The aluminum protection has a thickness of 5 mm, but this criterion does not affect its weight in any way, but is several times more expensive. The part has high strength and is easy to restore. Compared to other materials, aluminum has a longer service life. The properties of the metal make it possible to increase the dimensions of the part, which makes it possible to protect a larger area from impact.
Don't forget about car safety. The main advantage of the aluminum part is the absence of sparks upon impact, which protects the car from the risk of fire.
The downside of the part is its high susceptibility to oxidation, which significantly affects durability.

Reinforced steel
The reinforced version of the steel part has a thickness of 3-4 mm, the weight of the part increases, which significantly increases the load and fuel consumption. Reinforced steel is well suited for crossovers, such as the Lada Vesta Cross, since the large mass provides greater impact force. Restoring such a sheet is almost impossible, and the price is much higher. For maximum protection of the Lada Vesta crankcase, it is possible to use this option, however, drivers often opt for smooth steel in the first option.
Conclusion
Is crankcase protection necessary - definitely yes, for residents of the periphery, where the quality of the road surface is far from ideal.
The process of independently installing crankcase protection on a Lada Vesta car is not complicated, but it requires increased attention and strict adherence to the regulations.
If you encounter difficulties during installation, contact a service station specialist. Car service workers recommend purchasing branded car armor and then installing it, because only the “original” guarantees compatibility with the body structure of your vehicle.
Disadvantages of installing a deflector on the hood of Lada Vesta
Such a step has not only advantages, which owners of the domestic model need to take into account. The fact is that debris, dust and dirt are gradually packed between the hood and the deflector, carried there by the air flow. This leads to the fact that after rain, snow or washing, moisture accumulates between the hood and the deflector, which, as a rule, does not have time to dry at all, which negatively affects the condition of the metal of the Lada Vesta. Of course, Vesta’s body warranty is noticeably longer than that of other VAZ models, but it is inferior to that of foreign cars and such an impact is extremely undesirable.
Installing an air deflector on the hood can lead to similar troubles over time.
Naturally, hood deflectors are designed to maintain a gap between the plastic and the hood, through which dirt and sand should drain with the flow of water. But often such a gap is not enough, and fallen leaves completely close it.
Composite materials
Protection from composite materials: fiberglass, Kevlar or carbon fiber, is made by connecting them in layers using epoxy resins as a reinforcing link.
Such protectors are durable, light, completely free from corrosion and oxidation.
Taking into account the materials and binders used in production, the price of elements made of composite materials varies between a couple of hundred and several thousand dollars - so it is not for Vesta.
Due to complex production technology and lack of demand, restoring a damaged protector will become much more difficult. There is a high probability of purchasing a part with an internal defect that is difficult to detect with the naked eye.
