Installation of additional engine support for VAZ-2109


Standard engine mount - article number and price

On Lada Priora with 16 valve engines, four types of airbags are installed:

  • The top support is also a guitar;
  • Bottom.
  • Right (front);
  • Left(back);

By the way, engine mounts for Lada Priora are available in several versions. New sample parts have the best performance.

Some car enthusiasts additionally install another cushion attached to the gearbox. The VAZ-2110 with an 8-valve engine was standardly equipped with this element.

Right

The right (upper) front engine mount on the Priora is attached via a bracket to the engine, it is used for:

  • Transferring the weight of the power unit to the body;
  • Limitations on longitudinal movements of the motor.

Part number – 2110-1001240. In retail stores it costs 300-600 rubles. On sale you can find one pillow (only a rubber part) or assembled with metal stops.

Left

The left one, when viewed in the direction of travel, is the car engine mount, installed between the gearbox and the body, and performs the same functions as the right one. Another name is posterior (lower).

The rubber part of the cushion is identical to that used on the right, catalog number: 2110-1001240. But the fastening of the front and rear parts of the Lada Priora power unit is different, so the spare parts supplied assembled with limiters come as two different parts.

Upper

The upper support of the Priora power unit prevents the lateral movement of the motor. This part is a rod, along the edges of which there are large-diameter holes; rubber cushions are installed in them to dampen vibrations. Because of its shape, the top rod was popularly nicknamed “guitar.” In some repair manuals the part is called a rod.

The upper “guitar” is available in several modifications. A special aluminum frame and improved damping pads used on new parts increase the service life of the unit.

Replacing the upper support (rod) of the Lada Priora engine is easier and therefore faster than replacing other mountings of the power unit of this car.

Lower

The lower engine mount, also known as the right rod, in the Lada Priora is the same as the upper one, these are two identical parts. Therefore, everything that is said about the upper “guitar” is true for her. Sometimes the lower engine mount is called the rear engine mount, which in the Lada Priora spare parts catalog is designated as the left engine mount.

Additional at the checkpoint

Additional support is not provided for the 16-valve Lada Priora engine. But Prior owners often install it themselves. This does not require any modifications; the design of the gearbox housing and body of the Priora is similar to the VAZ-2110.

Its installation makes the engine mount more rigid, jerking when driving in low gears, and “nodding” of the power unit during sudden accelerations and stops stop. But the vibration transmitted to the body increases.

The rear gearbox rod is designated in the catalog number 2110-1001280 and is supplied assembled with a mount. Price – 500–800 rub.

Some features of engine mounts on a VAZ 2109 car

When developing cushion designs to reduce vibrations of the power unit, manufacturers are guided by the magnitude of the loads that the supports perceive. These devices constantly perceive loads that change periodically. One operates when the car is stationary - the weight of the unit; at start - the other. When the car moves backwards, the airbags perceive negative forces. Sharp acceleration, unexpected braking, encountering an obstacle or getting into a pothole cause the action of negative forces. The installed rear, front and side supports should extinguish them. For the manufacture of elements, natural rubber, high-grade rubber of the SKI-3 brand, high-quality steel and special glue are used. Engine mounts can withstand from (-45) to (+70) degrees Celsius. This indicates that for the VAZ 2109, the side left and right, front and rear engine mounts should be used only those manufactured by the manufacturer. In this case, they will meet all the requirements of manufacturing technology and are supplied to specialized stores. Car owners should purchase products from reliable suppliers who have proven themselves and have good reviews from customers.

Factors influencing the replacement of pillows for a VAZ 2109 engine

All manufactured products have a warranty period, after which they may fail. This also applies to the supports for the power unit of the VAZ 2109 car. Rubber naturally ages, it can crack from long-term use. In addition, there are also mechanical breakdowns associated with the consequences of an accident, an unexpected collision with an obstacle, an encounter with a sewer hatch along the way and many other reasons. Replacing the VAZ 2109 engine mounts is necessary when the following is detected:

  • Body vibrations.
  • A knocking sound that occurs when starting or braking a car, difficult gear shifting or unexpected acceleration.
  • Replacing the timing belt is accompanied by great difficulties. This is due to the fact that the sagging engine “approaches” the right mudguard almost closely, and it may interfere with the removal of the timing belt cover, and servicing the engine will be difficult.
  • Strong subsidence of the unit increases the load on the CV joints. The geometry of the work may change on them, which will reduce the service life of the structures.
  • A barely perceptible knock appears in the backstage area. This occurs due to engine sagging. In this case, the gearbox slider may begin to touch the outer surface of the anti-roll bar.
  • In the event that the replacement of the engine mount on a VAZ 2109 is not carried out in a timely manner, the cost of further repairs will increase significantly.

Replacing an engine mount on a VAZ 2109

Engine mounts on VAZ 2109 cars are responsible for reducing and eliminating vibrations emanating from engine operation and transmitted to the car body.

Every motorist should be able to replace them with his own hands. There is nothing complicated in working with supports, but competent repairs can significantly extend the life of the car and get rid of quickly annoying vibrations and noise.

We hope our article was useful to you.

Welcome! The engine mounting cushions are located differently on all cars and the number of them is also different, on some there are only two, and on some there are up to 4 pieces (We are talking about VAZ models, on jeeps with large engines, the number of cushions is they mount the engine, much more or the same number, but they are simply larger in size), thanks to these cushions the engine does not vibrate much and, most importantly, the vibration is not transmitted to the car body, as is felt in some old Zhiguli cars in which the rubber of the cushions has already hardened and Instead of dampening vibrations, they rock the car itself and its engine.

Note! To carry out repair work, to replace the cushions, the smallest set of tools from the tool kit will be useful, in which you will need: A jack will be needed, a wrench and sockets for it, as well as an extension cord, we recommend stocking up!

Where are the engine mounts located? There are four of them in 16 valve engines (the largest number, by the way, 8 valves are mainly equipped with three cushions or just two lower ones), the two most basic ones that are present in any engine (These are the same lower cushions on which the engine sits) and more one (Additional) is located on top and one more (Also additional) below, we will not show photos of all the pillows, because you won’t be able to get one photo, you will have to take several at once, so as you read the article, you will get acquainted with all the pillows and find out where which one is located.

When do you need to change engine mounts? They change rarely and only because of their aging (rubber gets old and it begins to hold the engine poorly and therefore it shakes), there are isolated cases when the cushion has to be changed due to deformation, and this happens when you hit the engine hard on the road or when hitting a deep hole, due to which, in addition to the airbags, the windshields also burst.

What influences the replacement

There are two main factors that force motorists to replace airbags.

  1. Natural wear and tear. Each pillow has its own service life, exceeding which is very rare. Often they don’t work it out for the second reason.
  2. Mechanical impacts leading to breakdowns. These are our roads, potholes, accidents, collisions with manholes, etc.

When replacement is required

There are several factors you should know about replacing engine components.

Situation

Peculiarities

If you feel vibration in the body, you should definitely check the condition of the supports. This effect can be caused by various reasons, but pillows are one of the main

Replacing the timing belt

When replacing a belt, removing its cover can be very difficult, since the engine is almost tightly pressed to the right mudguard of the front wheel. You have to remove the pillow in order to fully carry out repairs.

The engine sags, loads the CV joints

Due to the impact of the engine weight on CV joints, their geometry changes, which leads to a significant reduction in the service life of the elements. The resource is reduced, it is necessary to carry out replacements ahead of schedule

There is a knocking noise in the backstage area

It may be barely noticeable. But its presence indicates that the engine has sagged. Consequently, the supports do not work properly and need to be replaced

If you do not replace the supports in a timely manner, this will lead to more serious consequences and expensive repair of the breakdown. Therefore, it is better to replace the pillows when primary signs of wear are detected. To do this, we additionally recommend periodic inspection of the unit.

  • All bolts are well tightened.
  • The bracket is secured.

The rigidity of the engine installation on the mountings is a guarantee of the durability of the VAZ 2109 power unit.

Cushions under the car's engine will help reduce the force of vibration or even eliminate these disturbances that may occur on the body of the VAZ 2109. The material for their manufacture is rubber, and the elements are also used to reduce noise, which can be caused by a running engine. It is good for any car owner to be able to do this work with their own hands.

Self-replacement

Before replacing the pillows, it is necessary to diagnose their condition. The condition of any silent blocks is checked with a mount: with its help you need to influence the support, simulating the movements of the engine during operation. If:

  • rubber ruptures are visible,
  • the bushing of the silent block touches the joints,
  • the motor moves easily when pressed and hits the protection,
  • the support bracket is broken,

the part needs to be replaced. Even if the signs of wear are not so noticeable (for example, the rubber is cracked but not torn), it is better to replace them as a set. Silent blocks lose their elasticity over time and begin to perform their functions poorly.

There are regular and reinforced supports for the VAZ 2114 on sale. The second type uses a harder rubber compound, but they are more durable only in quiet driving mode. Fans of sharp starts and braking will have to change any of them every 15-20 thousand; for other drivers they can last 50 thousand kilometers. This is the answer to the question of how long the supports last.

Front engine support VAZ 2114

On a VAZ 2114, the supports can be replaced independently, without contacting a car service center. It is more convenient to use a pit or overpass, but you can do without them. To do this, the car is jacked up and placed on supports (bricks or tree stumps). If crankcase protection is installed, it must be removed.

Replacing the front support. You need to jack up the oil pan. First, use a 17mm head to unscrew the 4 bolts securing the bracket to the crankcase, then the silent block bolt. To remove the bolt, you need to use a jack to get it into a position where the engine will not put all its weight on it.

When installing a spare part, it is important to lubricate the silent block bolt well: not only the threaded part, but also the body. It is in contact with the metal sleeve, so it may stick

This is interesting: We independently solve the problem with floating speed

Side engine support VAZ 2114

Replacing the right support is similar, with the difference that it is better to jack the gearbox housing rather than the engine. Another option is to install a jack in the area of ​​the oil filter housing. It is attached to the crankcase with three bolts. Another trick is that the right pillow needs to be changed by two people. Without a side stop, the motor moves up, not down. The jack will not help here, so an assistant must press on it so that the silent block bolt can be secured.

Replacement of the rear support is the most difficult task if done without a pit or lift, requiring some skill in performing auto mechanic work and perseverance. It is located at the connection between the engine and gearbox, so you will have to work in a confined space. In addition, when unscrewing the bolts from the body, the key may rest against the gearbox housing.

Characteristic

What is this item? An engine mount is a gasket between body elements and the power unit. This is installed on all cars without exception. On Soviet Zhiguli cars, the cushion was a durable piece of rubber with fasteners on both sides. On more modern “nines” and “eights” (and subsequently all VAZs with a front-wheel drive layout) full-fledged rubber-metal supports were installed.

So, the power unit was mounted on four pillows. Two of them are on the gearbox, and the rest are on the engine. To avoid unnecessary loads, the box and motor are rigidly fixed. Any distortion leads to a change in the geometry of the input shaft. As a result, all the vibration is strongly transmitted to the gearbox lever and the transmission itself.

Where are the pillows? This element is installed on the engine from several sides:

  • Front cushion. Attached to the front beam of the power unit.
  • Back cushion. Installed to the front subframe. Located in the bottom area.
  • Right support. It is located on top, near the front side member of the body.
