Door hinge repair options
Failure or severely deformed hinges are repaired using the following methods:
- Complete door replacement. It is complicated by the fact that it is not always possible to find new VAZs for old ones. You have to buy old elements that are partially worn out.
- Inserting new hinges. A good option, but you will have to make additional adjustments and eyeliner. When inserting new ones, you will need a welding machine; for cutting, at least an impact drill, but a gas cutter is better.
- Replacing old fingers. It will only work if the hinges themselves remain intact and undeformed, and only these metal pins are bent (or come off the axis).
Replacing door hinges, as well as fingers, is the most rational option in this case. It's inexpensive and relatively easy to do. If necessary, additional equipment can always be rented at a service center or automotive supply store. The cost of the hinges themselves for the VAZ 2110 and similar models is only about 300-500 rubles. You can also find old, used ones for sale. You will have to pay less for them. But new VAZ 2110 doors will cost several thousand rubles. And they are sold, as a rule, without glass and cladding. Their installation is an additional waste of money.
Modifying the stove, simple techniques
Modernizing the VAZ 2110-2112 stove is a thorough and multifaceted process. If you don’t have the time or opportunity to fully remodel the stove system, but you need a positive result in the shortest possible time and with minimal effort, because winter is almost upon us, you can try to listen to the following advice.
1. The easiest way to increase the air flow of the heater for heating the feet of the front seats in the cabin is by blocking the heater ducts for the rear ones. Any tool at your disposal will do
Thus, you sacrifice the comfort of your passengers, but is this really important if, for example, you prefer to drive alone; 2. A similar result can be achieved by blocking the air channels of the central deflector oven by cutting a suitable plug from a sheet of aluminum
Obviously, in this case, the heat flow directed to the side windows and other furnace ducts in the car increases.
Stove damper tens
- 3. Often, standard VAZ 2110 door seals are not enough for reliable sound and heat insulation. Simply gluing additional insulating tape around the perimeter (for example, from K-Flex) can significantly improve the comfort inside the VAZ interior with minimal time and money investments;
- 4. Replacing the 5-hole thermostat with a more modern 6-hole thermostat, which controls the engine cooling and heating system in VAZ cars. These thermostats are completely interchangeable, so there should be no problems. A 6-hole thermostat is technologically more advanced, and therefore the heating of the stove radiator in a car will be more efficient. Such pleasure costs about 350 rubles.
Upgraded thermostat
Replacing the entire hinge
If the door is sagging, then the likely cause is deformation or mechanical wear of the hinges. It is corrected by completely replacing them, along with the fingers. You don't have to buy them. You can make it yourself if you have a metal cutting machine. Such repairs will be cheap - you will only have to pay for the purchase of high-quality metal plates.
It is recommended to cut the loops strictly along the boundaries of their wedging. Fingers are placed last. And again, you need to lubricate them, hammer them, and lock them, as the manufacturer himself recommends. Replacement without taking into account their manufacture (if you do it yourself) will take at most several hours, including removing and reinstalling the doors. All that remains is to make the adjustment. And you should understand that in the next few days the noose may fall. This is shrinkage. The door may creak and may not always slam shut normally. If necessary, readjustment is performed.

Good afternoon everyone! I ran into trouble that circumstances forced me to install an unloading relay on the starter, but I have a question about the correctness of the circuit that I used in this community: www.drive2.ru/c/48003/ why is it better or worse than this www.drive2.ru /c/595839/Electrics don’t have selenium, I’m afraid I’ll burn the car
Have a good time everyone. Need help, the dashboard lights are constantly on, when you turn on the ignition, not a single light comes on. Maybe someone had this.
hi all! tell me what to do, I changed the sensor, drove 500m, and everything is new (the check light is on) ps there are no deviations in the car, everything is normal. NOT troit,

How to distinguish original MAFs from fakes, a very useful link
Maybe someone will be interested in what an absorber is. The feedback injection system uses a fuel vapor recovery system. It consists of an adsorber installed in the engine compartment, a separator, valves and connecting hoses. Fuel vapor from the tank partially condenses in the separator, and the condensate is drained back into the tank. The remaining vapor passes through gravity and two-way valves. The gravity valve prevents fuel from leaking out of the tank when the vehicle rolls over, and the two-way valve prevents excessive increase or decrease in pressure in the fuel tank.
Then the fuel vapor enters the adsorber, where it is absorbed by activated carbon. The second fitting of the adsorber is connected by a hose to the throttle assembly, and the third to the atmosphere. However, when the engine is turned off, the third fitting is closed by an electromagnetic valve, so that in this case the adsorber does not communicate with the atmosphere. When the engine starts, the injection system controller begins to send control pulses to the valve with a frequency of 16 Hz. The valve communicates the adsorber cavity with the atmosphere and the sorbent is purged: gasoline vapors are sucked through the hose into the receiver. The greater the engine's air consumption, the longer the duration of the control pulses and the more intense the purging.

Replacing the backlight on the dashboard
To do this, you need to use the following algorithm:
- The panel should be removed.
- The illumination designation is determined by special LED bulbs. To replace the backlight, these bulbs must be removed.
- But before that you need to disassemble it. This is not a difficult task, as to disassemble it you just need to press the latches, thanks to which you can remove the bulbs.
- Everyone has seen that on top of the dashboard there is a “sticker” and symbols (speed, amount of gasoline). It is held on by glue, so to remove it you will have to dig around a little. Remaining glue must be removed.
You can start replacing the backlight.
Door trim
Tuning the VAZ 2110 interior also includes replacing the door trim. Think carefully about your design before you begin. Draw new elements on paper in advance and select a color scheme. This will help avoid ridicule from passengers. If we talk about the door trim, then you will need to remove all the decorative elements and cover them with fabric.
Maintenance
Regular maintenance of the VAZ 2111 engine ensures fairly long and trouble-free operation
Like all VAZ power units, the VAZ 2111 engine must be periodically inspected (visual inspection), paying special attention to:
- presence of antifreeze and engine oil leaks;
- integrity of high-voltage wires;
- serviceability of spark plugs;
- condition of the air filter element;
- cracks appear on the generator drive belt.
It is also recommended to regularly check the level of engine oil in the crankcase and antifreeze in the expansion tank of the power unit.
The list of mandatory procedures that must be carried out during scheduled vehicle maintenance includes replacement work (no later than):
- engine oil and oil filter - every 15 thousand km. mileage;
- fuel filter and air filter filter element - every 30 thousand km;
- timing belt and tension roller - every 75 thousand km. mileage;
- generator drive belt - every 30 thousand km. mileage;
- coolant - every 75 thousand km. mileage;
- spark plugs - every 60 thousand km.
Problems of the “tenth family” on the used market
Before purchasing a VAZ-2110, check the history of the vehicle you like. A third of the “ten” are sold with registration restrictions, reduced mileage and after a taxi. Every fourth car is sold damaged or with unpaid fines.
Some owners put cars up for sale with several problems at once. We almost immediately found one.
"Ten" 2003 with a 1.5 73 liter engine. With. and a mileage of about 210 thousand km for 75 thousand rubles:
The owner indicated that restrictions were imposed on the car, and the check also found incorrect mileage, a small accident and a couple of unpaid fines for driving in a public transport lane:
Due to existing restrictions, the future owner will have problems with registration. The issue of fines and lifting of restrictions should be resolved during the inspection of the car.

Installing a torpedo on a VAZ 2110 - step-by-step instructions
In order to install the instrument panel of a VAZ 2110 (torpedo), you must perform the following steps:
- Install the instrument panel so that the guide pins fit into the holes on the instrument panel.
- At the same time, move the steering column adjustment knob into the hole on the instrument panel.
- Using a screwdriver, drive the threaded rods into the holes on both sides of the panel.
- Install the foot warmer air duct so that the air duct fits into the hole in the air distributor housing.
- Connect all terminals to wires in reverse order. Secure the panel and reinstall all components that were removed during disassembly. After completing the work, check the operation of all devices.
Painting, ceiling covering
Over time, the ceiling in the VAZ 2110, and frankly speaking, in any other car, gets dirty, damaged, and generally becomes unsightly and spoils the appearance of the interior. Reupholstery or restoration costs a lot of money, and it must be admitted that it is quite labor-intensive.
The photo shows the process of painting the ceiling
Therefore, now many drivers decide on such tuning as painting the ceiling, especially since you can choose a color and tone to suit every taste. What are the options for ceiling paints?
- Universal paint in aerosol cans (you will need about five pieces). You can choose matte paint or shimmer. The only thing you need to remember is that the top may “crumble” a little, plus the interior must be ventilated for several days.
- Universal and water-based paint. They are mixed to soften and better adhere the paint to the soft ceiling material.
- Paints for velor, suede, textiles in the form of aerosols. These types are best used for the ceiling, since painting with them will not make it hard, and the paint will apply more evenly and without stains.
Where can I get Europanel?
The fact is that europlates, as well as assembled europanels, have become in short supply, since their production was discontinued more than five years ago. Therefore, they mostly sell used ones in good condition; it is quite difficult to find a new one. If suddenly the offered product does not suit you, you can install the Priorovskaya by completely disassembling the old one.

How to reupholster a VAZ interior with vinyl
We use 3M film as the material. Naturally, you can reupholster it with vinyl without removing parts, but it’s still better to disassemble the interior plastic for high-quality and comfortable work.
We transfer all the details to the workplace
Before covering, you need to degrease the work surface; you can do this with anti-silicon.
Next we apply a special primer to the plastic (to increase adhesion)
This significantly increases the cost of the work performed, which is why almost all services skip this. Although this is an important requirement of 3M Corporation for this film.
Then we cut out pieces of vinyl of the required shape.
And put a piece of vinyl on the element
Using a hairdryer (you can use a simple one, but a technical one is better) moderately heat the vinyl film to give it the desired softness and ductility.
There is no need to stretch the film too much, so as not to spoil the texture of the picture. Thanks to the stretching of the film, you can stretch curved parts of the interior, and for very curved parts (for example, the inner door handle), you can, if desired, cover them with several pieces, joint to joint.
Then we press the elements over the entire surface
Trim the edges with a sharp knife
If you need to make a window into the elements, then we simply cut it and wrap it.
All ! All that remains is to put the finished parts into the car interior.
Usually, when you buy a good film, it comes with the necessary tool for covering it (a stationery knife, a spatula, etc.), as well as an annotation.
Dashboard improvements
If you want to improve your car, improve the appearance and comfort of the interior, we recommend paying attention to such a part as a dashboard. The original dashboard does not have a spectacular appearance and does not at all correspond to current fashion trends, so we suggest taking the following steps to correct this misunderstanding:
- dismantle the torpedo;
- cover the surface of the dashboard with foam and leave for several hours until completely dry;
- using special cutters we give the torpedo any shape. After this, you will have to go over the surface with sandpaper to make it smooth and perfectly level;
- we increase the strength of the finished structure by using fiberglass and epoxy resin;
- We carry out secondary processing with sandpaper.
The last stage is covering the torpedo with artificial leather, painting it or covering it with special films. We leave the choice of finishes to you.
In addition, new instruments can be installed on the improved torpedo - both electronic and traditional pointer ones. But this will require special knowledge, since all additional automation must be correctly connected to the machine’s power supply system.
Tuning the interior may also include replacing seat upholstery and equipping the car with a new stereo system, changing the appearance of various toggle switches and switches, and the gear shift lever. The range of work depends solely on your imagination, so we suggest you decide for yourself what you would like to change in your “ten” in the salon.

Appearance
Most of the upgrades associated with tuning the “tens” were reflected in its appearance. The main objects for tuning are the following parts of the car:
- doors, trunk and other body parts;
- wheels;
- machine optics.
Wheels
The most often chosen as modernization objects are car wheels. Drivers are replacing factory stamped steel wheels with cast or forged ones. The combination of such accessories with low-profile tires gives the VAZ a sporty look.
Some car enthusiasts install 16- and 17-inch wheels on the VAZ 2110, the diameter of which is significantly larger than the factory ones. However, most drivers prefer wheels with a diameter of 13 or 14 inches, equal to the diameter of their original wheels.
Fans of off-road driving can increase the vehicle's track by installing wheels with a reduced offset. These wheels with deep tread tires improve vehicle stability and reduce the risk of rollover.
Before installing wheels on a car, you need to make sure that they are suitable for installation on the “ten” and related models. The list of wheels approved for installation on the VAZ 2110, VAZ 2111 and VAZ 2112 can be found in the operating manual for these vehicles.
Overlays
When performing tuning on the VAZ 2110, overlays are often used. Installing such an accessory is a stylish and inexpensive option for upgrading the “tens” with your own hands. The products are installed on the following parts of the car body:
- hood;
- glass;
- fairings;
- bumpers;
- front and rear lights, on which eyelashes are installed;
- air intake.
The cost of one decorative overlay is from 300 to 1000 rubles. They are attached using self-tapping screws or bolts. Sometimes double-sided tape is used to install the overlays.
Optics
Often, owners of “ten” prefer to upgrade their original headlights to purchasing front optics from a third-party manufacturer. The reasons for such actions are the price and the small number of ready-made front lighting devices on the market.
To upgrade the headlights, you need to remove them and disassemble them. The most commonly used modifications of the front optics of the “tens” after disassembly:
- The interior of the device is painted black to achieve a characteristic darkening effect. This is the simplest and most common homemade modification of VAZ headlights.
- A xenon unit is installed in the headlight. The cost of one such block is 3000 - 4000 rubles.
- More powerful halogen lamps are mounted in the headlight.
- Improved lenses are being installed.
- LEDs are installed to achieve the “angel eyes” effect.
The most common modifications to taillights are modifications related to their relatively dim light:
- Installing more powerful light bulbs.
- Installation of new lenses.
- Improving the light output of the flashlight by applying chrome paint to it.
Body
To improve the appearance, the “tens” buy kits of body kits. Typically, such kits include new bumpers, door sills, trunk, hood, and standard factory bumpers. Such body kits are made of plastic. The minimum price of kits for tuning the body of a VAZ 2110 is 7,000 rubles, however, there are kits priced at 20,000 rubles.
Spoiler
Those who want to give their car a sporty look often install spoilers on the trunk. The cost of such an accessory starts at 1,500 rubles. The price of aluminum spoilers is 6,000 rubles, and an AVR spoiler for the trunk lid will cost a tuning enthusiast 1,500 rubles.
Noise insulation
Do you want to tune the VAZ 2110 yourself? Then you can improve the sound insulation of the cabin. Finding high-quality material for insulating a car is a difficult task, but the future result of your work directly depends on it. Do not forget to prepare all the necessary tools before taking the first steps to create soundproof structures.
It is best to do this work not in the winter, but in the warm season, for example, in spring or summer. And most importantly, free yourself the whole day and devote it to your car. Of course, choose a material that does not get wet. Today, car enthusiasts for tuning 2110 distinguish five types of material that absorb noise quite well:
- to reduce vibration;
- to reduce noise from outside;
- for sound isolation;
- thermal insulation material;
- material that prevents squeaking.
You need to remove the clamps or screws to dismantle the casing. Ultimately, only the metal frame should remain. Remember that the car body is treated with a special solution that minimizes the risk of corrosion. Experts recommend removing this layer. You don’t have to worry, the metal won’t start to rot, since the soundproofing material for the casing will not allow moisture to pass through to the frame of the car.
Other accessories
In the list of pleasant little things for tuning the interior of the 2110 with your own hands, you will find many parts that are sold in literally every car store:
- Pedal covers are an inexpensive and nice addition. In addition to their attractive appearance, they improve pedaling comfort.
- If you want to improve the entire front panel, you need to be a real sculptor. That’s why many people advise purchasing a pre-improved dashboard to match your design.
- Acoustics. This issue deserves special attention - acoustics do not add comfort when moving and do not improve appearance. Acoustics improves sound quality, which is an undeniable advantage of tuning.
- A non-original steering wheel on a VAZ-2110 is a fairly common occurrence. Today you can choose literally any version of the steering wheel, which you can buy at any auto store.
The above-mentioned accessories are not all that can be used in such a matter as tuning a VAZ 2110. Try to make your car a little better by replacing at least some little things. After the first improvements, you will already feel the need for future improvement of your “iron horse”.
