How to remove the trunk trim on a Prior hatchback

After a well-spent weekend, the happy owner of the Priora finally returns home. Behind are kilometers of kilometers wound on wheels. Wonderful nature and leisure. True, on the way back I was somewhat irritated by a strange noise in the trunk area. But when it started to rain, it became less audible. The trip was a success. Now just take the equipment out of the trunk and into the house. But what is it? Everything that was lying there was very wet! How could this happen? And there’s something wrong with the lid itself. Where is the problem? We need to figure it out.

What are the advantages of a homemade shelf in a hatchback compared to a purchased one?

Those who decided to equip not only the rear shelf, but also the sides of the car, highlight the following advantages of making all the components themselves:

1. A homemade rear shelf will fit perfectly into the dimensions of the trunk,
2. It is possible to choose the wiring diagram for the speaker system yourself, in which the sound of all musical compositions without exception will cause frantic joy,

Attention! If you decide to make a shelf manually, then it is best to choose natural wood for the body, which will be treated with a special moisture-resistant compound. This will significantly increase the durability of the structure.

What do you need to know before making an acoustic shelf for a Priora hatchback?

1. For upholstery, experts advise using materials made from artificial and natural leather. This will give the shelf a solid look, and a high-quality finish will completely hide the new speakers from your fellow travelers.
2. By choosing the right size and shape of the shelf, you can achieve maximum effect in sound and bass, even when purchasing budget speakers for Priora,
3. When creating a layout for the rear parcel shelf, you must first calculate its dimensions according to the diameter and dimensions of the purchased speakers. Otherwise, at the installation stage you will have to redo the assembled circuit again.

The wires in the cover are rattling.

unscrew and release the loop that clings to the trunk door lock and screw in the rubber horns that are on the sides of the fifth door. If it doesn’t work out the first time, try lowering the loop a little and screwing in the elastic bands. also check the plastic crap that is screwed to the trunk door and the sides of the body, you will see that they are ground off, so the door is loose, either buy new ones and do not adjust anything, or cover them with carpet, but this will not last long.

The stops that lift the 5th door when closed may also knock, the rod enters the tube and walks there in the cold creating an unpleasant rattling sound, and this happens

Damn, about the stock... I blame it too. I have a station wagon, it’s loud in the cold!

the same thing in the cold and it seems to me only on the right side

+1 - right) when you start it from the street and drive - it knocks. If you leave the garage, then no. and if it’s near zero, then there seems to be no sound)

I'll fucking unscrew them and take a look)

I overcame this problem for my father on the hatch using the following method: I pulled the door hinges tightly, adjusted the lock, it became tight to close + it opens with 2 strong presses on the button! The door rattling is gone! Well, lastly, I pasted plastic on the door + dismantled everything up to the back seat, glued it and reassembled it, they forgot to screw in a couple of screws at the factory, and tighten some))))) after all these manipulations, there is perfect silence in my father’s car! I just have to do the same with my sedan, otherwise he’s teasing me like I have a cart compared to his))))

Did you adjust the mechanism itself? (meaning a castle)

come to me. maybe it will help.

There is a plastic seal on the trunk door. Unscrew the fastening bolt on it, move this seal towards the street and tighten the bolt. All. If you don't like how the door opens, adjust further. It helped me.

This is what the title of the topic should look like, I corrected it for you, I’ll delete it next time.

Yesterday I lowered the lock all the way down and adjusted the limiters and also let the headrests go down, glued the wiring in the fifth door with double-sided tape wherever I could, the noise went away!

How to trim a trunk lid

Every car owner wants, when opening the trunk lid, to be sure that he will see a smooth, clean trim, that this lid will work smoothly, and that it will not rattle on the road like a baby rattle. And you could close it without clapping with all your might, but with a light, relaxed movement. In addition, all trunk lid devices must work like clockwork. How to achieve this?

What is the Priora trunk lid?

In a modern car, this element is no longer a flat piece of metal covering the rear compartment of the car. It is fully functional, with a beautiful design, carefully adjusted and even equipped with various electrical equipment. The types of trunk lid depend on the Priora model. There are three options:

1. VAZ 2170.
2. VAZ 2171.
3. VAZ 2172.

These brands differ in body type: sedan, station wagon and hatchback. The most common and popular among Russian consumers is the sedan option. That is, LADA Priora VAZ 2170. Therefore, this model is worth taking a closer look at. What is included in the Priora trunk lid kit, except for the metal base itself:

• Priora trunk lock. This is a mechanical device that locks the lid and prevents outside penetration. When not locked, the lock holds the trunk in the “closed” position and prevents it from opening spontaneously. It can be triggered either by directly pressing the button on the lid itself, or remotely from a key in the cabin or the control panel on the ignition key.

• Electric lock activator. This unit is made on the basis of an induction coil. That is, when electric current is supplied to the winding, the metal core is retracted, performing a certain job. In this case, the core pulls the lock lever, which opens.
• Trunk hinges. These are quite complex lever-type devices. It allows you to open the trunk completely without creating a risk of damaging the surface of the body.

Important! The tight fit of the lid to the seal depends on the correct adjustment of the hinges. This prevents moisture from entering the trunk compartment during precipitation.

• Return mechanism. This is a set of springs that forces the Priora trunk lid to rise on its own when the lock tongue is released.
• Sheathing and fittings. The trim is a decorative plastic panel attached to the lid from the inside. In addition to creating a pleasing sight to the eye, it serves the function of protecting the lock and electric drive units from foreign objects.

Interesting! Some car enthusiasts build powerful speakers into this trim so they can listen to music when driving out of town.

The trim is secured with plastic parts, which drivers call puckles. It is advisable to change them each time the casing is removed.

Malfunctions and their elimination

Most often, the electrical activator of the lock fails, or the wires supplying the signal to it fray. This breakdown can be determined using a control light. Insert the lamp into the activator connector and press the open button. If the light comes on, the electric drive must be replaced. It is secured with two bolts. If not, look for an open circuit.

In second place is the lock mechanism. Here you need to insert a screwdriver into the groove on the open trunk and simulate closing. Then press the open button. If closure does not occur, the lock is replaced. The next step is the loops themselves. Their failure is determined visually, and they require replacement in the same way as return springs if they break or are stretched beyond use. That is, when the spring end is put on the last adjusting bracket, but the cover does not fold back.

And, finally, mechanical damage to the lid itself and the internal plastic lining. The Priora trunk itself can be put in order only by straightening specialists, but plastic is the easiest to replace.

Adjustment

This procedure is applied to several points on the Priora rear cover:

• Hinged fit. These devices have a certain margin in the mounting holes in order to be able to adjust the position of the Priora trunk lid. It is adjusted using the loosened landing bolts, after which the fasteners are securely tightened and fixed.
• Lock. The lock mechanism, which is held on by two bolts, has the same holes with a certain degree of freedom of movement. By moving it up and down, it is necessary to achieve a position in which the lock is activated with a slight pressure, and at the same time holds the lid without play.

• Electric drive. It is also regulated by moving the device body to a position that allows it to operate smoothly when you press the activating button.
• Springs. Along the inner edge of the Priora trunk, at the base of the lid, next to the hinges, there are special gear rows. A return spring is attached to one of the teeth on each, causing the lid to rise when the lock is opened. As the springs wear out (stretch), the limit switch moves to the next tooth. Until the spring is replaced.

Attention! Do not over-tension the springs, as this leads to rapid wear of the lock mechanism.

This is one of the simplest operations. You just need to open the cover, disconnect the electrical connector on the left side at the base and unscrew the 4 mounting bolts, after which you can remove this unit. True, it is better to carry out this operation together. The part is not heavy, but it is large, and it is inconvenient for one person to unscrew the bolts and hold it in place. And if it breaks, it can damage the paint of the body, which will cost a pretty penny later.

What to do if it thunders

The most unpleasant feeling. Constant rumbling noise in the rear while driving. It's the trunk lid rattling. The main reasons for this trouble are:

• Loose trunk lock.
• Worn or loose mounting bolts.
• Abrasion of the lid seal.

All these problems can be resolved quite easily. You just need to know how.

In the first two cases, the adjustment described above helps, with the replacement of worn parts. In the latter, you just need to change the rubber seal, which is a very simple task; it is not glued, but is simply put on the edge of the body in contact with the lid.

Many people are not satisfied with the appearance of the factory lining of the inside of the trunk. There is a whole tuning industry for this. If the owner does not want to carry out this operation in a service center, you can always purchase ready-made kits, which you can then install yourself in place of the standard ones. That is, pull out the button clips, remove the factory plastic and replace the trim to your taste and color.

Selection of material for construction

It is recommended to choose natural wood for the manufacture of parts. The wood is pre-treated with special moisture-resistant compounds that improve the quality of the material.

LADA Priora sedan

And for finishing the base, materials are chosen based on the effective appearance of the product. For example, to achieve solidity, the structure is decorated with leather or its substitute (a cheaper option). Some people like suede, velvet, thick brocade. But, you should understand that fabric surfaces will collect a lot of dust. They are more difficult to clean and fade over time. While leather is quite easy to clean and lasts longer.

Speaker shelf

Ways to refine the product

Removing the shelf from the trunk of a Lada Priora takes no more than a minute. In hatchback and station wagon you need to pull it up and then remove it. In a sedan body the removal process is more complicated:

• you need to disconnect the wire block from the additional brake light and from the speakers (if any);
• pull the locking strap up and remove the back of the rear sofa;
• lower the armrest down and unscrew the fastening screws of the luggage compartment hatch;
• press the 4 locking elements;
• lift the front part a little and pull it towards you, overcoming the force of the seals until the latter come out from under the rear window.

To put the shelf in place, repeat all steps in reverse order.

The process of finalizing the shelf in a sedan

The standard design is not of good quality and most often begins to rattle and creak. If it is not possible to make a shelf yourself, modify the factory one.

To work you will need:

• polyurethane foam;
• scotch;
• noise and vibration insulation material;
• glue, preferably epoxy;
• silicone sealant.

The upgrade looks like this:

1. The standard shelf is removed from the car along with the speakers.
2. All holes are sealed with tape - it is important to prevent polyurethane foam from getting into them.
3. The bottom surface is moistened for better adhesion to the sealant.
4. Polyurethane foam is applied to the lower part and after 40 minutes it is pressed down to increase rigidity. The sealant must be pierced in several places with a nail to expel excess air.
5. You should wait until the foam has dried completely and treat all seams with silicone sealant.
6. Noise-vibration insulation material is glued to the outside with epoxy glue.
7. If desired, you can top the product with textiles.

This modification increases the rigidity of the structure, prevents squeaks, and improves sound quality.

To ensure that nothing interferes with the sound, no foreign objects are allowed on the acoustic shelf.

Improvement method without polyurethane foam

On Lada Priora hatchbacks and station wagons, using the method using polyurethane foam is undesirable. The thickness of the product is considerable, and for a large surface area this threatens sagging. For this reason, other materials are used for modification: modelin, anti-creak or vibroplast.

First you need to make the structure heavier. To do this, noise-vibration insulation material is glued to the bottom side. In this case, a construction hair dryer is used to heat the vibroplast and a tool for rolling out the insulation - any hard roller will do. Weighting will prevent rattling.

Then all surfaces that come into contact with each other are covered with modelin. This refers to the shelf holders on the sides and the contact points of the plastic linings with the luggage compartment pillars. Sealants for windows and doors, used in construction, may also be suitable for pasting. The purpose of this stage is to remove squeaks.

As additional measures, you can use components from foreign cars instead of standard rubber bumpers. They press the shelf more tightly to the trunk lid in the closed position and prevent it from moving and bouncing when driving on uneven roads.

Where does the creation of a rear shelf for a Priora hatchback begin?

The first step in creating a high-quality acoustic shelf is the selection of materials for the body and the box outline itself. Here, the most popular among Priora hatchback owners are inexpensive types of wood materials, such as chipboard, samples of thick plywood or MDF boards. Such materials tolerate moisture well and have good durability indicators - on average, an acoustic shelf on a Priora will last you 5-6 years. The next stage of choosing materials comes down to selecting a method for connecting the cut out parts of the shelf layout and covering it. To glue the parts together, it is best to use carpet. Working with it is quite simple and the end result should definitely please you. It does not leave marks or burrs at the joints. However, many Priora hatchback owners choose more expensive combinations of materials to implement their ideas - for example, covering a body made of natural wood with leather. The last stage in preparation is to create a sketch or layout of the future shelf for the trunk or sidewalls. Here you need to accurately measure all the corners and sides of the car and recreate the image of the future shelf, indicating the places for the speakers.

Attention! Often, the rattling of the shelf is associated not so much with the use of low-quality materials, but with the occurrence of vibration after improper fixation of the rear shelf in the trunk. That is why, before checking the operation of the system, be sure to ensure that the rear side of the structure is firmly secured to the corners of the machine using appropriate fasteners.

The final stage of soundproofing the trunk

In order for the soundproofing of the trunk to be most effective, at the final stage of the technological process it is also necessary to soundproof the plastic in the trunk. Following the algorithm described above, the trunk roof lining is made heavier, which is subsequently covered with bitoplast. Then all wiring is wrapped in Anti-creak. And to avoid unnecessary squeaks, the side shelves and plastic linings of the window mullions are also glued with modelin.

Do not forget that the sound insulation of the Priora will be effective only if the sound insulation was carried out not in one of the components of the car, but in the entire car as a whole. If you soundproof one trunk, you will certainly notice a certain difference. But things will be completely different if your iron “horse” is soundproofed in all parts of the car.

How to Create a Shelf Layout

To make a model, the factory form of the Priora shelf is used. It is important to understand here that there is a difference in the forms of the Priora hatchback, sedan or station wagon. The dimensions of the standard shelf are taken as a basis. Based on them, the required dimensions of the new acoustic shelf are calculated.

First, the shelf is removed from the Lada and applied to cardboard material prepared in advance. The product is laid out flat, pressed tightly against the cardboard and outlined with a marker. It is important to remember to outline the slots for the seat straps.

Mounting an acoustic shelf

Then the place where the speakers will be is selected and indicated on the layout. The template is cut along the contour lines with sharp scissors. The layout is ready. It is applied to the material with which the base will be sheathed. The marker is already outlined on the fabric.

Yeah, everything was done for me, but... Glass rattles! If you hit the lid with your fist, the rattling sound from the glass is simply unreal. It looks like the previous owner was so heavily tinted that they forgot to glue the glass in, I have no idea how I dealt with this for a year))

this is tonered)

Excellent service, and in general, everything that was done in my car before me was done through the 5th point. The fog lights and absolutely all the electrics from the signaling system were simply terribly attached (they just hung on the body and were wobbling), the antenna was installed crookedly (not in the center), and even the ceiling was bent back so that the crease is now there. In general, the vandal owned the car)) well, I put everything in order

Yeah, everything was done for me, but... Glass rattles! If you hit the lid with your fist, the rattling sound from the glass is simply unreal. It looks like the previous owner was so heavily tinted that they forgot to glue the glass in, I have no idea how I dealt with this for a year))

The glass is not removed when tinting!

What do you think, the windows are removed for tinting!))). This is back when they were on elastic bands! I was filmed on a VAZ 2108.

EVERYTHING WAS SOLVED BY REPLACING THE HINGE AND BOLTS! THANKS TO ALL!

I also suffered from this, in the end it turned out to be the upper shock absorber mounts, I blocked it because no solution was found! It seems to be in my blog

Indeed, the wiring in the racks may be rattling, pull it out and wrap it around it. But you shouldn’t unscrew all the rubber bands all the way, unscrew and adjust so that the cover in relation to the body is the same on all sides in the gaps.

off topic, but still... cool photo!

It’s true that in cold weather, the scribe was knocking something from behind. I couldn’t find it. In the spring, when I was doing the noise, I found the source of the knock (well, like a knock. The sound is similar to the bottom of an iron bucket resonating) on ​​the left, between the spare tire niche and the arch niche, there was a flat area. which resonated like a drum. x s maybe you too.

I have complete ShVI and it’s serious.

Wrap the rods and wires with modelin.

maybe the gas stops are loose, try wrapping them with electrical tape, or putting them in heat shrink

I solved the problem with new! I just made a good noise on the lid, it became heavy and stopped rattling, although in winter the gas stops don’t hold up, but that’s not the problem

All my cars are heavy duty) All that’s left to do with this trunk is decide what the hell it is.

I folded the seats, closed the trunk and looked from the inside to see how the trunk lid fit, there was a gap between the lid and the trunk seal... I tightened the lock, tightened the rubber bands and that’s it, the gap disappeared...

the shelf is knocking, the racks can rightly knock, and if the lid starts knocking, you won’t confuse it with anything else, remove everything unnecessary and drive for a couple of days and you’ll see exactly how the lock works, whether it moves from the inside

the whole backside is dismantled, on bumps it’s as if they’re hitting the lid with all their might with a hammer...

the sound should be dull, if you hit someone with a hammer and let them look at the racks, but first, drive into the pit, shake the beam, the wheel bearings are damper, the knocking may come from there, it’s such a thing that the knock seems to be in one place and reverberates throughout the cabin to another, and in general Maybe the nuts on the racks on the top of the linkage are loose, and they also correctly said fold down the seats because the locks there can knock

I have a feeling that it’s the top hinges on the lid that are being hammered, although I don’t know.

check there business

M.B. it’s not a cover, but a suspension, rear struts... it rattled on my sedan, and I didn’t know what could happen, I changed the struts and voila

Do you have Kazakhstan on your number?

yes, I was born and raised there

You don’t need to turn the twisters as far as possible, you need to screw them in - place them under the side rubber bands so that the lid fits tightly on its sides and is flush with the body, and you only unscrew the lower twisters to support it from the bottom, then it won’t go anywhere and will shut up! Another point is that you still need to install a body reinforcement, then it won’t break your ass so much! There may also be a knocking noise coming from the rear seats; there, too, the hinges need to be stretched with a lining!

+1 but my hands just can’t reach it, because I adjusted the hinge, installed the shelf, lowered the rubber bands... the seats are knocking

elastic bands to the maximum and a loop inside the cabin and there will be happiness))))

It will be difficult to close

it won’t if you find the optimal location for the loop, this is the case, you need to adjust and select

elastic bands to the maximum and a loop inside the cabin and there will be happiness))))

I did it so long ago

without closing completely, see if the side rubbers are pressing, if not, then add more (they should press equally)

I have already placed rubber gaskets under the side ones.

and if the loop is dangling, then take it off and scald it on the inside, after that half of the sounds disappeared, otherwise the paint was dangling and knocking like

I had such nonsense, the hinge (the counterpart of the lock) was dangling from right to left, I welded it tightly and all the problems were over)

welded directly to the body?

The loop unscrews, but for me the hook itself was dangling in the platform.

Yes, he specifically goes to make adjustments.

the platform moves and the hinge is riveted to it and becomes loose over time

Adjusting the trunk lid of Priora sedan

Tell me, the trunk lid does not close tightly! The gaps are so big that your finger can fit through! I didn’t notice it before! Maybe the subwoofer is bent? They say the trunk lid is somehow adjustable! How? The lock may need to be tightened! Don't know…

Comments 11

I have a Priora sedan from new, the trunk doesn’t close well, I have to slam it shut, if I’m sitting in the car and someone closes the trunk from the street, then the impact can make you go crazy, please help? Can this lower hinge be adjusted to what the lock clings to or something?

Do not touch the lock mate, remove the plastic trim on the trunk lid and there are 3 bolts there. First, mark the position of the lock with a marker before starting the adjustment, so that you can return everything to the way it was. Screw the rubber stops on the sides all the way and then adjust with the lock. But first, determine whether you need it. If the trunk is knocking or there is a lid lift with the rubber stops screwed in. Good luck!

One of the common malfunctions on a Priora with a hatchback body is a knocking or creaking of the trunk lid. This causes severe discomfort, especially when driving on a bad road. To fix the problem, it is necessary to adjust the trunk lock of the Priora hatchback or replace it. This can be done at specialized service stations or independently. The operations do not take much time and do not require special tools or special plumbing skills.

Causes of trunk lid knocking

If, when driving over bumps, a clanging, knocking or other knocking sound is heard from the trunk lid, the reasons may be as follows:

• The trunk seal rubber is worn;
• the rubber bands (rubber stops) into which the lid rests are worn out or not adjusted;
• the trunk lid hinges are loose;
• The trunk lock is poorly adjusted or broken.

The condition of the seal located under the trunk lid and the rubber stops can be checked visually. Lyada hinges are quite reliable and can last a long time. The main cause of the noise is a misaligned or broken trunk lock, which does not hold the trunk tightly enough.

If the trunk is difficult to close or open, the cause is also a misaligned or broken lock.

If the trunk lock of a Priora hatchback is being replaced, then after installing the lock it must be adjusted. Therefore, first we will tell you how to change the lock on a Priora.

What tools will you need?

To replace or adjust the trunk lock, you will need:

• open-end wrench 10;
• open-end wrench 13;
• socket wrench 10;
• socket wrench 13;
• flat screwdriver;
• crosshead screwdriver;
• pliers.

After installation (before adjustment), the lock must be lubricated, so you also need to stock up on machine oil.

Replacing the trunk lock of a Priora hatchback

The Priora trunk lock is electrically driven, so before removing the lock, you must remove the ground terminal from the battery. If this is not done, a short circuit may occur during operation.

Removal, installation and adjustment of the ignition switch can be done even on the street. But it is better to do this in a garage, so that weather conditions do not interfere and dust does not get into the lock mechanism.

The procedure for removing the trunk lock is as follows:

• Using a flat screwdriver, carefully, so as not to damage the surface of the trunk lock lining and the plastic of the fastening pistons, remove the pistons;
• remove the trim covering the trunk lock;
• disconnect the wire block connected to the trunk locking gear motor;
• Unscrew the two screws securing the gearmotor to the trunk lid panel;
• Uncouple the gear motor rod from the lock lock drive rod;
• remove the gear motor from the vehicle;
• remove the rod from the trunk lock;
• Using a flat screwdriver, pry and remove the rod going to the trunk lock switch, uncoupling it from the drive;
• Using the same screwdriver, uncouple the rod from the trunk lock switch;
• remove the lock switch bracket by moving it to the left;
• remove the trunk lock switch from the hole in the lid's trim;
• mark the location of the lock on the trunk lid;
• loosen the screw securing the rod;
• Using a 10 mm socket wrench, unscrew the three nuts securing the lock drive to the trunk;
• remove the lock mechanism.

The stage of manufacturing the rear shelf on a Priora hatchback.

Before creating a new shelf model, dismantle the standard model. It will serve as a kind of layout for creating a similar model with your own hands. The manufacturing stages themselves are as follows:

1. On a sheet of thick cardboard or 1-2 mm sheet of plywood, use a marker to transfer the size of the standard Priora shelf.
2. Using a utility knife, cut out the layout of the future shelf. Most importantly, do not forget to additionally mark the places where the seat belt will pass and the speakers themselves will be installed.
3. After this, you need to transfer the drawn layout onto a sheet of chipboard or plywood from which the rear shelf of the hatchback will be made. Using an electric jigsaw, cut the base to fit the new shelf shape.

4. To increase the rigidity of the structure, you will need to attach several wooden blocks to the base, thanks to which you will create a reliable fixation of the shelf in the corners of the trunk.

What happens in the end?

The rear shelf on the Priora, created with your own hands, will not be inferior in quality or appearance to standard models, which are sold in a wide range in any online store. In addition, creating a shelf for your own design from professionals or ordering it from an online store will cost you much more than you will assemble the option you like in your garage. The most important thing is that before starting work, be sure to read the photographs of the manufacture and installation of the shelf on the Priora.

How to make a rear shelf on a Priora Hatchback with your own hands

Every car enthusiast can make an acoustic shelf for a Priora Hatchback with sidewalls. As a basis for making a prototype, a sheet of plywood with a thickness of at least 12 mm should be used, which will provide sufficient sound insulation and strength to the product. The workflow is quite simple and is divided into the following steps:

1. 1. Template marking. As a template, you can use the factory decorative upholstery of the rear panel of the Hatchback, the contours of which are transferred to cardboard and adjusted to the required size. At this stage, the holes for the speakers are marked;
2. 2. Transferring the contours of the parts onto a sheet of plywood and then cutting them out along the intended lines. For convenience, it is better to use a jigsaw and a drill;

MDF body

1. 3. Covering the speaker holes with a metal mesh on the inside;
2. 4. Covering the front side of the parts with carpet coating or other suitable material using a furniture stapler and glue.

Making a shelf for a Lada Priora sedan

The acoustic shelf on a Priora sedan is made as follows:

1. A layout is created using the old basis.
2. To properly install the speakers, wooden blocks are attached between the mounting holes using self-tapping screws and sealant. The bars will act as stiffeners. This will prevent rattling when playing music.
3. The podium templates are cut out separately. And they are fixed to the base using mounting foam. After the sealant has completely hardened, excess pieces are cut off with a sharp knife.
4. Holes are cut for the safety straps.
5. The base is processed with a knife until the material is smooth.
6. The base is covered with finishing material. It is better to use epoxy resin glue for fixing.
7. The finished shelf is mounted in a regular place in the sedan. The sidewalls are secured with strong bolts, if any.

Creaking rear shelf of Priora sedan

Priora sedan, something creaks in the back, I thought the shelf was replaced with a wooden acoustic one. the creaking became even louder. when no one is sitting behind, there is almost no creaking, occasionally. and as people sit down, he appears again. I don’t know what to think anymore. Has anyone had this?

Comments 24

The handbrake cable squeaks. you need to lubricate its fastenings

the trouble also started when no one was there, very rarely a creaking sound, and when someone sat down, it started getting rough...

1 rubber band that fits into the hole in the seat (the top latch on the seat, then unfasten the seat and look at it from the trunk, there should be an elastic band there, 2 maybe the springs in the back are creaking?

try laying a rag under the seat or some kind of thread (under the entire other side for the entire width) and look... temporarily remove the plastic where the latch is (I don’t remember, you can glue it without it or with a model, and if it’s on the sides, then remove it in the same way time and travel and look, you will find the reason, you will do everything ok

I actually have an ensemble there. the seat creaks where there is a groove for the latch, plastic sides, headrests...

plastic sides are the worst! I put everything wooden in the back - I drive and couldn’t be happier

( 1 rating, average 5 out of 5 )

Three common ways to solve problems

Among car enthusiasts, there are 3 quite popular methods for eliminating squeaks:

1. Dismantling the shelf and gluing it with soundproofing materials.
2. Replacing the element with a new purchased product (wooden shelf).
3. Manufacturing of a fixation system using fabric Velcro.

In the first case, several materials and devices are used to perform the work: - vibroplast; - uniton; - construction hair dryer. The goal of all work is to paste over the lower part of the product using various sealing and soundproofing materials. In addition, the places where the shelf comes into contact with its installation location are also glued.

The second option is quite simple and does not require labor-intensive manipulations. All you need to do is buy a new product and install it to replace the old one. The advantages of this approach lie in the material used to make the shelf - wood or plywood, which do not produce squeaks when in contact with hard elements.

The third solution is similar to the first, except that the principle of the idea is to firmly fix the problematic element to the place of its installation and prevent it from moving while the car is moving. To do this, ordinary Velcro, which is used in the manufacture of clothing, is attached to the corners of the product.

Improving sound insulation when installing an acoustic system for Lada Priora

When installing speakers with higher power on a VAZ 2172, the sound insulation of both the rear panel and the car doors, instrument panel and ceiling should be improved. You can get rid of extraneous sounds in your car using vibration and noise insulating materials, as well as protective covers.

Since the new acoustic shelf of the Priora Hatchback is made of dense plywood, sound insulation begins with the installation of vibration-absorbing materials, such as vizomats, ECO, vibroplasts, etc. Next, a second layer of sound-absorbing material such as “Accent” or “Isoton” is applied. In this case, the thickness of the sound insulation layer should be taken into account, otherwise the installation of plywood parts will become impossible.

Trunk door Lada Priora station wagon 2171 in color

The basis of the Priora 2171 car is the platform of the previous VAZ 2111 model. On the modernized station wagon, the optics and interior were changed for the better, and the engine was modified. The changes also affected changes in many facing body parts: front and rear fenders, hood and modernization did not bypass the rear doors of the Priora station wagon.

The Priora 2171 tailgate (Prior 2171 trunk door) is installed only on station wagons of the Priora family. The folding and single-leaf ones have glued glass and the correct location of the trunk hinges. For smoother opening of the tailgate of the Priora station wagon, telescopic gas shock absorbers are used. The “cracker” design has two panels, external and internal, assembled together using a flange connection with glue. The trunk door of the Lada Priora station wagon is stamped from low-carbon sheet steel 0.8 mm thick.

Today it is possible to buy a tailgate for a Priora station wagon painted in the color of the car's body. The price of a painted part is much more favorable than repairing an old tailgate on a Priora station wagon or painting a new one at a car repair shop. This was achieved thanks to in-line painting of body parts and a minimal markup.

The trunk door 2171 is painted using German equipment using technologies recommended by AvtoVAZ. Each color-matched body part has its own four-layer packaging, which protects the part during transportation and completely eliminates damage to the paint surface.

Making a shelf for a station wagon and hatchback

The acoustic shelf for the Lada Priora hatchback or station wagon is made of the same materials. The process of working on the design is also similar. It differs in that standard shelves in cars with a hatchback or station wagon body type consist of two elements. One part can be folded down to make it easier to load luggage.

Lada Priora hatchback

You can create such a shelf model in two ways:

1. Both parts are cut out according to the template of standard elements. One part is slightly shorter - 1-3 cm. Both parts are fastened with epoxy glue and self-tapping screws.
2. To make the folding part of the shelf, plywood is taken that is thinner than the insert part. Some people make it simpler: they modify an old folding shelf, weighing it down with insulating material. You can also use old fixing parts.

Acoustic shelf for Lada Priora To install the structure in a hatchback or Priora station wagon with your own hands, proceed as follows:

1. The rear seats are removed.
2. The standard shelf is removed. A new template is made from it.
3. The hatchback-type interior has an acoustic shelf with sidewalls. This is different from the sedan interior in the Priora car. Speakers are also installed on the sides. At the discretion of the owner, these speakers can be of different sizes and shapes.
4. The sides are also dismantled. And based on them, a template for new ones is created. Some simply transfer the parameters onto the base material using a marker. All subsequent steps are similar to the previous installation option.

Acoustic shelf for Lada Priora hatchback

There are some special features when installing speakers: it is recommended to point them at the glass. This will result in an even distribution of sound throughout the cabin.

To raise or turn the podium in one direction or another, metal plates are used. They are attached to the base. If there is free space, you can carefully fill it with foam. When it hardens, cut off excess pieces. The inside of the structure is covered with insulating materials. The sides are upholstered, the speakers are mounted and the acoustic shelf is installed in its place.

Using these tips, you can easily make an acoustic shelf for your Lada Priora with your own hands. In any body type.

Replacing Lada Priora locks (VAZ Priora)

One of the common malfunctions on the Priora with a hatchback body is a knocking or creaking of the trunk lid. This causes severe discomfort, especially when driving on a bad road. To fix the problem, it is necessary to adjust the trunk lock of the Priora hatchback or replace it. This can be done at specialized service stations or independently. The operations do not take much time and do not require special tools or special plumbing skills.

If, when driving over bumps, a clanging, knocking or other knocking sound is heard from the trunk lid, the reasons may be as follows:

• The trunk seal rubber is worn;
• the rubber bands (rubber stops) into which the lid rests are worn out or not adjusted;
• the trunk lid hinges are loose;
• The trunk lock is poorly adjusted or broken.

The condition of the seal located under the trunk lid and the rubber stops can be checked visually. Lyada hinges are quite reliable and can last a long time. The main cause of the noise is a misaligned or broken trunk lock, which does not hold the trunk tightly enough.

If the trunk is difficult to close or open, the cause is also a misaligned or broken lock.

If the trunk lock of a Priora hatchback is being replaced, then after installing the lock it must be adjusted. Therefore, first we will tell you how to change the lock on a Priora.

What tools will you need?

To replace or adjust the trunk lock, you will need:

• open-end wrench 10;
• open-end wrench 13;
• socket wrench 10;
• socket wrench 13;
• flat screwdriver;
• crosshead screwdriver;
• pliers.

After installation (before adjustment), the lock must be lubricated, so you also need to stock up on machine oil.

Replacing the trunk lock of a Priora hatchback

The Priora trunk lock is electrically driven, so before removing the lock, you must remove the ground terminal from the battery. If this is not done, a short circuit may occur during operation.

Removal, installation and adjustment of the ignition switch can be done even on the street. But it is better to do this in a garage, so that weather conditions do not interfere and dust does not get into the lock mechanism.

The procedure for removing the trunk lock is as follows:

• Using a flat screwdriver, carefully, so as not to damage the surface of the trunk lock lining and the plastic of the fastening pistons, remove the pistons;
• remove the trim covering the trunk lock;
• disconnect the wire block connected to the trunk locking gear motor;
• Unscrew the two screws securing the gearmotor to the trunk lid panel;
• Uncouple the gear motor rod from the lock lock drive rod;
• remove the gear motor from the vehicle;
• remove the rod from the trunk lock;
• Using a flat screwdriver, pry and remove the rod going to the trunk lock switch, uncoupling it from the drive;
• Using the same screwdriver, uncouple the rod from the trunk lock switch;
• remove the lock switch bracket by moving it to the left;
• remove the trunk lock switch from the hole in the lid's trim;
• mark the location of the lock on the trunk lid;
• loosen the screw securing the rod;
• Using a 10 mm socket wrench, unscrew the three nuts securing the lock drive to the trunk;
• remove the lock mechanism.

After dismantling, the trunk lock must be inspected for wear and damage, and the functionality of the parts must be checked. Depending on the condition, it can either be lubricated and reinstalled, or replaced with a new one. The moving parts of the new Priora hatchback lock also need to be lubricated before installing the unit on the car.

Installing the trunk lock is done in the reverse order.

Adjusting the trunk lock "Priora" hatchback

Adjustment of the installation position and length of the trunk lock mechanism rods must be performed in the following cases:

• the lock does not open electrically, although the gear motor works;
• the lock does not close well or does not close at all;
• The trunk door knocks while driving.

In the first case, it is necessary to adjust the length of the rod. In a couple of others, you need to correctly set the position of the trunk lock on the lid.

Also, if the lock is not working well, it would be a good idea to lubricate its moving parts with oil or grease that does not harden in the cold (which is important in winter).

Adjusting the trunk lock of the Priora hatchback is performed as follows:

• Using a flat screwdriver, carefully, so as not to damage the surface of the trunk lock lining and the plate of the fastening pistons, remove the pistons;
• remove the trim covering the trunk lock mechanism;
• loosen the screw tightening the lock opening rod;
• straighten the end of the rod, if it is bent, with pliers;
• loosen the three nuts securing the lock to the trunk lid;
• move the lock in the desired direction so that it fits well with the latch;
• lubricate the lock mechanism;
• tighten the screw securing the rod;
• tighten the nuts securing the lock on the trunk lid;
• make sure that the lock closes well (if it does not, repeat the adjustment);
• finally tighten the nuts securing the lock to the trunk lid;
• install the cladding in place and secure it with pistons. Another adjustment option is to change the position of the lock latch. If the lock knocks on the latch when closing and the lid closes with considerable force, it is necessary to change its position. To do this you should:
• loosen the bolts holding the clamp;
• move the lock forward or backward, depending on the required position;
• tighten the fastening bolts;
• check whether the trunk lid can be easily buried;
• if necessary, repeat the adjustment of the lock position;
• Finally tighten the bolts holding the clamp.

Another adjustment option is to adjust the length of the rod coming from the electric locking drive to the mechanism. To do this, you need to remove the lock from the car, as described above. The drive rod is screwed to the mechanism, so to change the length it must be turned several turns in one direction or another. After changing the length of the rod, the lock mechanism must be reinstalled and checked whether it opens electrically. If necessary, the rod length adjustment must be repeated.

If everything works fine, all that remains is to install the trunk lock in place.

Replacing the ignition switch is a fairly rare procedure. However, like any seemingly simple repair, it forces even experienced specialists to treat this type of repair scrupulously.

Traditionally, replacement of the ignition switch is carried out in case of damage, wear and tear, when the car simply does not start, but more often in the event of a malfunction of the electrical circuits of the car, the starter of which the lock is. For example, by turning the key to one of the positions, we alert not only the engine ignition system, but also other functions:

• external (including side) lighting;
• instrument lighting;
• low and high beam headlights;
• fans for interior heating and engine cooling systems.

How to remove the rear parcel shelf of a Priora sedan

When studying the nuances of the removal process, all work should take no more than 20 minutes.

To remove it you will need a regular Phillips screwdriver.

1. First of all, we need to disconnect the wires from the speakers located on the shelf. To do this, disconnect the connector from the brake light.
2. Next, we move into the car interior and remove the elements of the rear seat. This must be done in order to ensure maximum convenience and ease of work.
3. Now you need to release the armrest. As a result, two mounting screws for the trunk hatch will become available, which you will have to unscrew using a regular Phillips screwdriver.

4. We find 4 special locking latches, which are located along the entire perimeter of the metal structure. To unfasten the shelf, you need to press on its protruding base, which is located inside the latch, and at the same time pull it upward. Similar manipulations are performed in relation to all four latches.
5. Now that the element is not firmly fixed, you need to slightly lift the front part of the shelf and pull it towards you with a little force. This is required so that three special seals pop out from under the glass.
6. This completes the dismantling.

Reinstallation is similar to the above removal process.

Review of popular shelves on Priora

Priora station wagon acoustic shelf

Let's look at the most popular shelves sold today in stores in our country. First, let’s find out what technical characteristics stand out for the shelves on the Priora that have sidewalls.

It is clear that the main advantage of a shelf with sides is the location of the speakers (see How to choose speakers for a car radio on your own). They do not stand on the main plywood, but on the side parts. This provides a unique opportunity to conveniently load cargo into the trunk for transportation. Now you won’t have to remove the shelf with the speakers every time. In addition, it is possible to select the desired color of the polo, depending on individual preferences and matching the interior color.

Remove the rear door trim of the Priora station wagon

Removing the car door trim is a mandatory procedure if you need to carry out certain operations - repairing wiring, installing new equipment such as speakers or window lifts. Cars from the Lada Priora line have a standard door mechanism design, which allows you to open it by following the same instructions regardless of the model.

The vehicle owner only needs patience, a set of tools and strict adherence to instructions to avoid damage to the trim. The design of the rear and front doors on cars is slightly different, but the general principle of operation is the same.

Tools for removing car trim

The standard list of tools includes:

Set of tools for removing trim and clips

It should be taken into account that the clips may crack when removed, so it is better to stock up on additional copies just in case. It is preferable to buy the kit in advance to save time at work. It is worth paying attention to what model the clips are purchased for - only for the Priora, the rest do not match in size.

Clips for door trim of different Lada models

If electronic elements are installed in the doors, you will need a wrench - this applies to window lifts. It is necessary to have space to open the doors to the sides, so you need to empty the garage/box of unnecessary things that interfere with the procedure. Another option is to take the car outside in warm weather, and collect all the removed elements in a tool box with pre-prepared compartments, so that nothing gets overlooked during reassembly.

It is imperative to disconnect the battery if there are electronic components in the doors, so as not to provoke a short circuit and the need for premature replacement of wiring and other spare parts - just remove the negative wire. When using screwdrivers, the best option is to wrap them in electrical tape so as not to scratch anything (including the paint on the metal), and you need to work with the tools carefully - without sudden movements.

How to remove the front door trim on a Priora

Dismantling begins by unscrewing the screws located near the door handle. Next, you will need to remove the screws holding the power window control module. At this stage, care must be taken not to damage the glass itself. The window lifter element will need to be removed along with the module for controlling the mirrors. Next you need to work in the following sequence:

Location of clips on the Priora door

Useful and visual videos of removing the front door trim from a Priora:

Reassembling the door after carrying out the necessary operations is carried out in the reverse order. You just need to make sure that all electrical and mechanical components are connected correctly. Contacting a workshop will not be a rational decision if you study the instructions in detail and do everything exactly as described and shown in the pictures. The first time the process will take a little longer, but later working on the car will become much easier.

How to remove the rear door trim on a Priora

For the rear doors, the sequence of actions is approximately the same, and even easier, but it is worth considering the design features and location:

Assembling the door will require the same steps, but in reverse order.

Door trim repair

In case of noticeable damage to the surface of the door trim, it is possible to eliminate the consequences using several materials:

To fix the material, you will need gel or glue, depending on the situation, and the cost of the work for the machine owner directly depends on the area being processed. You can do the same with inserts. The following materials are used:

The choice of material depends solely on the preferences of the car owner and his budget.

Replacement/installation of sound insulation

Installing insulation will protect the driver and passengers not only from unnecessary noise, but also from other factors:

Soundproofing a car door

It should be taken into account that the installation of vibroplast involves an increase in weight and, accordingly, shrinkage of the door, so it is worth:

There should be no gap left between the casing and the frame, since such imperfections lead not only to dirt getting inside, but also to excess noise when opening/closing doors or during a trip.

The benefits of working independently

Dismantling the casing on Priora on your own will allow you to obtain the following advantages:

As a result, self-repair of a car will become not only a personal experience, but also an opportunity to help others when changing the interior of the car or correcting deficiencies acquired as a result of an accident and careless handling of doors.

Recommendations for working with car doors

General principles for working with front and rear doors include fixing the structure in one position so that there is no chance of injuring your fingers and simply exposing yourself to discomfort due to constantly moving doors. There are several tips to make repairs easier:

It is mandatory to check how easily the doors close after installation - you will need to close and open the car several times. If there are difficulties, this is a reason for additional adjustments. In any situation, you will need to clean the frame with alcohol. Under no circumstances should the anti-corrosion coating be removed from the bottom, since this is the part that is subject to the greatest loads.
