What is the generator belt to choose? Adjusting the tension of the Lada Lada of Lada Calina Timing the timing belt tension.

01.06.2021

I think that many car owners met with such a problem when the leather belt whistles. This arises because of the weakening of the tensioner, especially clearly revealed in crude weather, when a very pleasant whistle appears from under the hood. The stretch is performed quite simply and does not take much time, and the tool takes quite a bit:

  1. The key on 8 cape or root, or the head with a ratchet - also completely comes
  2. The key is 19.

Adjusting the generator belt on Kalina

The first thing that we will need to do is to loosen the tensioner rod nut, slightly revealing it counterclockwise:

And then unscrew the rod of the tensioner, and thus the belt will stretch. In order not to apply a lot of effort during tension, it is necessary to press the tensioner with a hand on the tensioner housing and at this time unscrewed, as shown in the photo below:

After tightened the belt, tighten the utilum nut and check whether there are more whistles at the engine running. To make sure that it is necessary to include as many electrical appliances as possible: Far Light, the oven for high speed, rear heating of glass, etc. If the belt does not whistle after doing this procedure, it means it is tight normally.

But it should also be borne in mind that the hauling will also not benefit the device. First, the belt itself will be strongly exhausted. Secondly, the bearing will not withstand a large load, threw and can even be jammed for a fairly short period of time. Once on the last car there was a sad experience, too much pulled him and after a week ride the bearing went under the replacement. So do not overdo it when performing this type of service with your viburnum.

If you need to relax on the contrary, you will need to twist the rod clockwise. After that, tighten the battery nut. It seems to be all the recommendations that you need to know when performing this simple procedure.

Domestic auto industry continues to progress - AvtoVAZ presented new generation Lada Kalina. The model is equipped with a JATCO automatic transmission and an improved ventilation and heating system. Representatives of the plant assure that the new car got rid of the problems associated with the electric power steering wheel of the previous series.

This is all wonderful, but it is thanks to the first generation of VAZ 1118 that the repair techniques were worked out, which can be very useful to the owners of new cars. Suppose the procedure replacing the generator polycliner belt on Kalina Absolutely the same for both models.

Specificity of the drive scheme on different modifications LADA KALINA

The factory design provides for a different length of standard gear, which depends on the configuration of the machine:

  • without air conditioning - 882 mm;
  • with air conditioning - 1018 mm.

The first models of VAZ 1118 without air conditioning and tensioning rollers are equipped with a polyclinic drive 823 mm long. Thus, not only the alternator, but also the air conditioner compressor can be involved in one strap from the crankshaft pulley. The circuit with the roller allows you to adjust the tension.

In stock configuration by car installed a firm drive Gates.. As a replacement in the first models, you can use Dayco 825.. Here you need to take into account that the elastic copies are marked with the symbol " Poly-V."With its absence, the product has a rigid structure.

Alternative drives for VAZ 1118 with air conditioning:

  • ROULUNDS RUBBER 6PK1015;
  • Dayco 6pk1005;
  • Bosch 6pk1015;
  • Gates 6pk1019.

Alternative drives for VAZ 1118 without air conditioning:

  • Baautler 6pk883;
  • Dayko 6pk888;
  • FINWHALE BP6 883;
  • Luzar LB 0118 1118-3701720 6РК 884;
  • ROULUNDS RUBBER 6PK884;
  • BRT 882 mm (Balakovo Plant).

Regulations of the periodic inspection and replacement of the generator belt on Kalina

Many newly new owners of vehicles either from longer joy, or if nonsense recalls the presence of a flexible connection under the hood only after sunbathing the lamp on the dashboard. In the technical documentation of the car, operating standards are indicated, after which the elements of torque transfer should be removed and installed new:

  • tensioner roller through 60,000 km;
  • belt 30,000 km.
  • cracks;
  • rubbing;
  • bundles;
  • grilling;
  • cuts.

The high-frequency whistle appearing when the electrical consumer is turned on, also indicates the need to replace the generator belt on Kalina or, at a minimum, to adjust its tension.

Technology repairing the drive system of auxiliary aggregates

Sequencing Similar for both air conditioning models, and without it, consists of the following items:

  1. Remove the engine protection.
  2. Remove the right wheel and subsidence.
  3. Remove the expansion tank.
  4. Subdominating the right side of the engine and unscrew the pillow.
  5. Spinning the tensioner mechanism stud, weaken the belt tension.
  6. Remove the drive from the roller and then from all pulleys.
  7. Install a new item and build in reverse order.
  8. Perform tension adjustment.
It is advisable to hold work on the observation pit in compliance with all security measures. When changing a flexible connection, it is recommended to simultaneously install a new tensioner roller, but it already depends on the desire of the owner and the state of the node.

Tension adjustment

After replacing the generator belt on Kalina, the "rough" alignment and the subsequent engine start needed to produce more adjusting the drive tension. To do this, perform the following operations:

  • weaken the tensioner rod lock nut;
  • rotate the key to the "8" adjustment pin until the result is reached;
  • clamp a locknut.

With a gradual stretching of the belt, you can use simple coat scales to attach to the key to "8" and tighten the stud counterclockwise to 2 kg. Normal is considered to be setting when, with an effort of 10 kgf, the magnitude of the deflection will be between 8-10 mm on the site between the pulleys of the generator and the crankshaft.

More "advanced" owners have instruments such as a CST-belt, the operation of which is based on identifying the known acoustic characteristics of the drive devices.

How to replace the generator belt on Lada Kalina

How to pull the belt

After three years of operation and run, almost 50,000 km decided to look at the generator belt and found several cracks on it, which were on the scar. In total, there were about 7 such damage along the entire length of the belt, and it is possible that he still passed so much, but I decided to replace it before the onset of colds so that in the case of which it was not to be labeled on the road.

What is the length of the belt should be?

Please note that the generators who are installed on Kalina can be both tensioner and without it. Accordingly, the length of them is different, what I was convinced (before that it was simply not encountered):

  1. For the design of the generator with the belt tensioner length is 883 mm (in most cases)
  2. If you have a generator with a lovelier (both on a grant), then buying is already 823 mm.

Selection from manufacturers

Of all the possible options that were offered on shop windows, I chose Gates. Why stopped at this firm, I will tell below. As well as a few words about other manufacturers.

  1. First, I would like to say about Balakovo belts, in the reduction of "BRT". I had a sad experience with them, and even twice. But only it was not on Kalina, but on another car 2112. Two times the belt of the BRT truck was torn during running less than 10,000 km, as a result of which the repair of the engine cost a considerable amount both times. Maybe at local points where I bought these components, I came across a fake, but now there is no confidence in this manufacturer.
  2. Other belt manufacturers, such as FinWhale, Continental and Andycar, did not interest me, although I can't tell anything wrong with anything bad, since I didn't have any experience. The price range is approximately the same, in the area of \u200b\u200b350 rubles.
  3. Now about Gates and why I chose it. On AvtoVAZ from the factory for 80% of cars, the belts of the company Gates are installed. And as for these components, there are no complaints about this brand. The factory timing belt goes about 50 thousand and wear traces are not visible, the teeth are not peeled, as often happens on low-quality belts. Yes, and hundreds of reviews, even on the drive, at least on the same Kalinoklub, they say that the products of this company are very high-quality.

In general, everything changed, now you can safely ride on stranded, although old one still put in the trunk as a spare, you never know what!

How to replace the generator belt on Lada Kalina

How to pull the belt

When operating the machine, the generator drive strap is quickly wear out. It is necessary to constantly monitor its condition, since the functioning of the entire car depends on the serviceable operation of this mechanism. The procedure for replacing the generator belt on Kalina does not apply to the number of labor-intensive operations and can be performed with their own hands.

When to change?

On vehicles VAZ Lada Kalina applies a belt drive of auxiliary aggregates. On air conditioning machines, the service life of such a belt is not more than 30 thousand km of mileage. On simple versions of the car, the strap is able to serve longer, but most owners try to change it through the same 30 thousand kilometers. For various reasons, the belt may fail and earlier, so during the operation of the car it is necessary to periodically check. There should be no cracks on the working path, and the bundle is unacceptable on the outer part of the belt. If there are such defects, the strap is immediately changing. Another signal to the replacement of this element becomes a whistle or other noise when working as an aggregate.

The process of replacing the belt on Kalina with air conditioning (sixteen valves) is a video from the user Alexander.

Belt and roller selection

A few types of belts are used on Lada Kalina cars.

The type of item depends on the engine model and its equipment:

  1. Motor version without air conditioning and tensioner - belt length 823 mm. Gates applied (number 6pk823), but this part does not ship in spare parts. For replacement, a slightly different strap is used - Gates 6PK823SF.
  2. A variant of the unit with a belt tensioner, but without air conditioning - 882-884 mm. The standard part of Gates production (article 6pk882). Besides him, straps are often used - FinWhale BP6883, Dayco 6pk888 or the cheapest Balakovo Brat882 belt.
  3. Engine with air conditioning and belt tensioner (Motor 11183) - 1018 mm. The regular element of Gates production (number 6pk1018). Alternative options are Dayco 6PK1018 or Continental 6PK1015.
  4. On the 16-valve engine model 21127 with air conditioning and the tensioner, a belt is 995 mm long. From the factory, the Gates detail is set (6pk995), it is also used as a spare.

Sometimes when replacing the belt, there is a need to install a new tensioner. He all the same motors, its article - 2123-1041056.

How to change with your own hands?

The laboriousness of the replacement of the generator belt on viburnum does not depend on the number of valves or additional units on the engine.

Replacement on 8 valve motors without tensioner

Replacing the belt on such an engine is the simplest, from the tools only the key is needed on 13 mm and a short screwdriver with a flat sting. Since there is a rather strong tension in this actuator, then when changing, it is necessary to use only a six-square belt Gates 6PK823SF or Dayco 825 with additional poly-V marking. The remaining straps are too tough, quickly destroyed and output the bearing on the shaft of the generator.

Stages of work

To perform the task you need to do the following:

  1. Unscrew the lower fastening bolt of the generator for 2-3 turns.
  2. Unscrew the top mount nut, push the bolt screwdriver and remove it at all.
  3. Lower the generator down. The head of the mechanism must pass through the slot between the radiator and the TV body.
  4. Remove the old belt and replace it with a new one. If the strap does not wear on the pulleys, it can be carefully tightened with a screwdriver.
  5. Raise the generator up, providing belt pulling.
  6. Insert the top point bolt and tighten the nut.
  7. Tighten the base point bolt.
  8. Check the work of the belt.

The repair process on such a motor is well shown on the video shot by the author Ilgiz Magafurov.

Replacement on 8 valve motors with tensioner

Here, the procedure for installing a new generator belt is very different from the above.

Required tools

For self-replacement of the generator belt, at least the following tools will be needed:

  • an ordinary or cape key for nuts 13, 17 and 19 mm;
  • the head with a ratchet for nuts 8 mm, when it does not fit the horny or ordinary key of the same size;
  • a screwdriver with a thin flat sting;
  • thin needle;
  • rag;
  • white spirit or gasoline, approximately 0.5 liters;
  • capacity and brush for washing;
  • Sls.

Stages of work

To adjust the degree of belt tension on Kalina motor, a mechanical tensioner is used, in contrast to the timing of the timing, which uses the hydraulic machine. When changing the element, it is recommended to carry out a roller preventive repair, laying there fresh lubricant.

To perform work, you need to perform the following:

  1. Loosen the roller bolt. The thread on it is reverse.
  2. Wear a screwdriver a plastic plug on the roller and take it gently.
  3. Unscrew the locking nut on the tensioner terminal to several revolutions.
  4. Loosen the belt tension by rotating the rod nut clockwise. The nut must be turned off until the rod starts to move freely in the seating.
  5. Unscrew the side bolt fastening the terminal rod, located next to the tensioner.
  6. Remove the tensioner and postpone.
  7. Embed to dismantle the strap. The procedure must begin with a pulley of the generator, overcoming the small resistance of the belt.
  8. Remove the element from the crankshaft pulley and remove it completely.
  9. Unscrew the roller bolt and remove it.
  10. Needle carefully pinched and dismantle the protective covers on the bearing. Rinse bearing White spirit or gasoline.
  11. Fill with fresh lubricant and install protective rubber covers.
  12. Collect all the details and hindow the roller into place. When assembling it is necessary to remember that the sleeve is in the bearing from the side of the bracket.
  13. Change the strap by setting it in the reverse sequence - from the crankshaft pulley to the pulley of the generator.
  14. Install the tensioner and rotation of the nut counterclockwise start tightening the belt. Tighten the nut until the resistance increases. Well stretched strap should be slightly pushed by hand.
  15. Tighten the nut, stopping the tensioner rod.
  16. Check the operation of the mechanism, when the whistle occurs, reach it.

Replacement on 16 valve motors

The complexity of replacing the generator drive belt on such viburnum is the need to remove the front engine support.

Required tools

  • head for hexagonal asterisks of 11 mm or TORX E14;
  • two jacks;
  • head or key 17 mm;
  • head with a rattling of 8 mm.

Replacement process

In the process of performing work, such actions should be made:

  1. Raise the car on the jack and dismantle the right wheel, as well as the protective fenders in the arc and the boot of supports.
  2. Install under the bottom of the car safety support.
  3. Remove the protective screen under the engine.
  4. Raise the motor under the crankcase jack. Between the lifting part of the jack and the engine oil crankcase must be placed a wooden stand.
  5. Remove the two TORX E14 bolts fastening the power unit support to the bracket. If the screws are tight, it is necessary to vary the position of the motor with a jack, seeking easy rotation.
  6. Unscrew the three Torx E14 bolts to fasten the supports to the car bodies.
  7. Loosen the belt tension, for this you need to unscrew the locking nut.
  8. Rotate the nut for 8 mm clockwise until the belt is completely loosening. Then you need to remove the strap and turn a new element through the location.
  9. If necessary, you can replace the lubricant in the tensioning roller. The scheme is completely identical to the above described above.
  10. Stretch the belt, rotating an 8 mm nut counterclockwise. The stretch should be controlled by hand - the element must be fed when pressed.
  11. Fix the tension nut for 19 mm.
  12. Install all removed parts in the reverse order.
  13. Turn the engine and check the drive operation. To do this, you need to load the belt as much as possible - include all electricity consumption and air conditioning.
  14. When a whistle appears during operation, it is necessary to reach the strap. To do this, we need to weaken the lock on the running motor and gently tighten the tensioner rod to the disappearance of the whistle.
  15. Tighten the lock nut.
  16. If a whistle occurs during operation, the belt must be tightened yet.
