Maintenance of Lada Vesta

When buying a car, you should focus not only on its cost, but also on the costs during operation. This also applies to periodic maintenance - a mandatory procedure for vehicles. When the first maintenance of a Lada Vesta is carried out, what repair operations it includes, and how much it will cost - read on about all aspects of this procedure.

Maintenance (abbr. MRO - maintenance and repair) is a set of measures to maintain the functionality and serviceability of the vehicle for safe operation.

Maintenance regulations for Lada Vesta

LADA Vesta began production at the AvtoVAZ plant in November 2015. Equipped with motors: 11189, 21129 and HR16DE-H4M. The latter is an imported engine produced by the Renault-Nissan alliance. The most common engine is 1.6 liter. 21129 is the well-known VAZ engine 21127 with some modernization. It is this that is taken as the basis for this routine maintenance.

The frequency of replacement of Lada Vesta consumables is 15,000 km . In severe operating conditions, it is useful to reduce the interval to 10,000 km and even more - to 7,500. There will definitely be no harm from this, except for your wallet.

First of all, reducing the replacement interval concerns the oil and oil filter. The air and cabin filters should be checked and at least blown out, and if they are heavily soiled, they must be replaced.

Severe operating conditions include:

• driving in a large city with frequent trips over short distances;
• long-term movement at low speed;
• moving through dusty areas;
• transporting a trailer or driving a heavily loaded vehicle.

Below we will describe a map of the routine maintenance of the Lada Vesta, as well as the catalog numbers of the necessary consumables and their average prices (indicated for Moscow and the region) that will be needed for work. The maintenance diagram looks like this:

Refueling volumes

As mentioned above, three different engines were installed on the Lada Vesta - 11189, 21129 and HR16DE-H4M. It was also equipped with different gearboxes - 2180, 2182 and JHQ. Based on this, some Vesta filling containers have different volumes, while others are the same for everyone.

The following table will help you figure out how much of a particular technical fluid needs to be filled:

*A mixture of coolants of different brands should not be allowed.

In the same repair and maintenance manual for Lada West there are also the following volumes of coolant for the engine cooling system:

• for 11189/21129 with pre-heater - 9.3 l., without heating - 8.7 l.;
• for HR16DE-H4M with pre-heater – 7.6 l., without heating – 7.0 l.

• checking the position of the light (if necessary, adjust the optics).

5) Diagnostics of the Lada chassis:

• installation on a vibration stand, listening to the operation of the suspension when driving over uneven surfaces (there should be no knocks, creaks, or “moans”);
• study of the work of the “walker” while moving along a straight path and a rounded one (inspection of constant velocity joints and hub bearings);
• measuring the accuracy of the wheel alignment angle.

List of works for maintenance 6 (90,000 km or 6 years)

1. Repeat all the procedures prescribed by TO 1, TO 2 and TO 3 - change the engine oil and oil, air and cabin filters, as well as spark plugs and brake fluid.
2. Replacing the alternator belt for cars without air conditioning . Article 8450006327, price - 800 rubles .
3. Replacing the accessory drive belt for vehicles with climate control system . Article number 8450006328, belt price - 1100 rubles . If the belt tensioner roller (automatic) is worn out, then we change it too: article number - 8660001575, price - 3500 rubles .
4. Replacing the coolant. The manufacturer recommends using Antifreeze Sintec LUX G12 red-orange, article number 614500, and the price is for 5 liters. canister - 460 rubles .

Replacements according to service life

Replacing the timing belt for engines 11189/21129, according to the regulations, is carried out when the mileage reaches 180 thousand km. But it may be necessary a little earlier, because the condition of the belt is checked at every maintenance.

For the 11189 engine, the cost of a timing kit with catalog number 21116100604086 is 2900 rubles . For the 21129 motor, the cost of the belt is 3,450 rubles (article number 8201069699), and the tensioner pulley with article number 8200908180 will cost 4,000 rubles .

Replacing the timing chain of the HR16DE-H4M engine is not regulated - it is designed for its entire service life. But still, practice shows that in the region of 250 thousand km. may need replacement.

The fuel filter on Vesta is designed for its entire service life. It is changed only if the fuel pump breaks down, which has a service life of 180,000 km.

Subsequent maintenance

After the sixth technical maintenance cycle of preventive maintenance begins anew. The only difference is that at the next 90,000 km (namely 180,000 mileage from the release of Vesta), the replacement of the timing belt with all accompanying rollers is regulated. Please note that it is possible to replace the belt ahead of schedule if signs of wear are detected. The fuel filter is changed only together with the pump at the same 180,000 km in case of failure. The most common maintenance problems that occur!

At the initial stages of break-in, owners may encounter the following malfunctions:

• minor damage to the glass (it is important to undergo maintenance 0, this is often caused by defective windshield wipers);
• burnout of the resonator, its corrosion;
• wear of the engine cooling system hoses;
• rapid failure of glass heaters;
• wear of the rubber parts of the rear anti-roll bars of the Lada;
• malfunction of the lower ball joints;
• multimedia malfunctions.

These are the main “faults” of all modifications of Lada Vesta. We advise you to pay attention to them already at the first service.

Planned maintenance work should not be neglected. And the loss of warranty is not the most important thing. After all, timely maintenance is the prevention of urgent repairs, extending the service life of Lada Vesta components and a guarantee of confidence on the road.

Reviews

Owners of Lada Vesta often mention on various forums about maintenance, its shortcomings, and frequent breakdowns.

Ivan Semyonov writes: “It is better to personally observe what exactly the masters do. At the first service, someone only changes the oil and filter, while at another dealership they additionally carry out all the necessary diagnostics and inspect the car on a lift. Vesta has not yet proven its reliability in comparison with the same Hyundai Solaris and Kia Rio. Let’s see what kind of maintenance will be needed after a mileage of 150 thousand km.”

Evgeniy left a similar review: “A lot depends on the dealer, in some places they will change the oil and say “goodbye,” and in others they will lubricate everything, check the suspension, brake system, and even wipe it where necessary. However, the difference in cost may be minimal. But prices are relevant only during the warranty period; after its expiration, maintenance can increase significantly.”
