When product replacement is required

Both the front and rear wheels are characterized by the use of 4 brake pads to ensure effective braking. Only in design these products are very different, although the principle of operation is similar.

The rear pads of the VAZ 2107 are presented in the form of an arched steel structure, on the outer part of which a friction layer is applied. It is due to the friction of this layer against the inside of the drum that the car stops. If you do not replace the brake elements in a timely manner, this will be fraught with the development of unpredictable consequences, because the most important thing for any car is the serviceability of the braking system.

It will not be possible to determine this fact without removing the wheel and dismantling the drum. But this is one of the main ways to determine whether the brake system is faulty. There is a second option, which is more convenient and does not require dismantling the rear wheel. To do this, you need to listen for signs of squeaking of the rear wheels, as well as grinding and lack of braking effect, but this can lead to damage to the drum itself. You can squeeze the handbrake while standing on a slope and check that it is working correctly. Of course, the cable on the handbrake may become loose, but if you tighten it and still have no effect, then it’s time to start replacing the pads. If the rear brakes are not functioning, then it is time to change the pads. It is recommended to change them as a set on both rear wheels, since they are often worn out at the same time. What is the process of replacing rear brake pads on a VAZ 2107 will be determined further.

On a note! All four pads on the rear wheels need to be replaced at the same time, even if the friction linings are worn unevenly.

Instructions for replacing rear pads

At the beginning of the work, it should be noted that the handbrake must initially be lowered to its lowest position. This will allow you to dismantle the brake drum and thereby get to the worn parts. To begin replacing the brake pads of a VAZ 2107, it is necessary to remove the rear wheel:

• There is a drum behind the wheel, which also needs to be removed. There are no problems with this, so we move on.
• After removing the drum, it is necessary to inspect the worn pads. If the thickness of the friction lining exceeds 1.5 mm, then there is no need to replace the products. Before carrying out further work, it is necessary to clean the mechanism from dirt and dust. To do this, you can use a brush or cloth.
• If the products need to be replaced, then you need to take a screwdriver and then remove first the upper, then the lower connecting springs. If you can’t dismantle it with a screwdriver, then you should use pliers. The photo below shows the springs that should be removed.
• Next, you need to remove the clamps, which consist of a rod, a washer and a spring. These washers must be rotated 90 degrees to remove them through the slots. This is what the washers that hold the pads look like.
• Similar procedures are carried out with the second block.
• After removing the springs and clamps, the pads are removed independently.
• The parking brake locking pin is straightened. The photo below shows the location of the locking pin. Now you need to unscrew the parking brake lever. This can be done using pliers. After this, the washer is removed, then the lever.
• During the dismantling process, you will have a question, what to do with the parking brake tip? It must be disconnected from the product and then left hanging.
• If necessary, it is recommended to replace all parking brake parts that were removed from the old product with new ones.

The rear brake pads on the VAZ 2107 should be installed in the reverse order of removal. Before installation, remember to bring the brake cylinder pistons as close as possible. Despite their simple design, installing them is much more difficult than the front ones.

But having completed the procedure once, all subsequent repairs will be much easier for you.

The cost of new pads starts from 800 rubles per set, but it is important to purchase high-quality products, and not Chinese “consumer goods”. Not only the service life of the products, but also the braking of the car will depend on this. This completes the replacement procedure, if you have any questions, be sure to ask them

This completes the replacement procedure; if you have any questions, be sure to ask them.

AUTOFIZIK.RU / auto repair

We replace the rear wheel pads if they are damaged, oily, or if the linings are worn to a thickness of less than 1 mm. We replace the drum if it is damaged, cracked, or if the working surface is worn to a diameter of more than 283 mm. We replace all four rear wheel pads at the same time. Remove the rear wheels.

In case of a tight fit or “sticking” of the drum to the hub, you can compress it by screwing three M10 bolts into special holes.

ATTENTION The brake drums are machined together with the hubs, so we install the removed drums only in their original places. The factory instructions recommend grinding new drums together with the hub before installing them on the car. Do not press the brake pedal after removing the brake drum.

Using a hook or thin pliers, remove the end of the tension spring from the hole in the rear brake shoe.

It is more convenient to use a special device for this.

From the inside of the brake shield, with one hand we press on the cap of the rear brake pad rod, with the other hand on the cup, compressing the spring. Rotate the spring cup 90°. In this case, the slot on the cup will align with the tip of the axle. Remove the cups with the spring.

We remove the rod from the hole in the brake shield.

Turn the rear block and remove the lower tension spring.

We remove the parking brake lever from the cable end.

Similarly, remove the fastening of the front brake pad to the brake shield, and remove the front pad.

Remove the tension spring from the block and the spring from the spacer rod.

Using a 17mm wrench, unscrew the nut securing the rod to the block...

...and remove the parts of the parking brake adjustment mechanism.

Use pliers to unscrew the nut securing the parking brake lever.

Holding the fastening bolt with a 17mm wrench, use the same wrench to unscrew the nut...

... take out the bolt and remove the parts securing the parking brake lever to the block.

We rearrange the removed parts onto new pads. We install new brake pads in the reverse order, and then adjust the gap between the pads and the brake drum (see Adjusting the parking brake drive). We install the drum, lubricating its seating belt with CV joint grease-4 or graphite grease.

ATTENTION The brake drum is installed on the hub in only one position, since the holes for the screws are made with a variable pitch around the circumference.

We install the wheels and press the brake pedal several times to self-install the brake components.

Let's summarize

It is important that before installing new parts, the cylinder pistons must be brought together as much as possible.

If the drum still refuses to “sit” in its normal place, you can remove the collar. This is done like this: the drum is fixed on the axle shaft with the reverse side, the motor and speed are turned on. The bead is sawed off with a file. Despite the simple design of the rear pads, their installation is more difficult. But having performed this operation once, you will perform all subsequent repairs with ease. And the rear pads need to be changed every 40-50 thousand kilometers. This is precisely their resource. German pads can last longer if you operate the car as usual and the way you drive the car is not aggressive.

Problems when paying with bank cards

Sometimes difficulties may arise when paying with Visa/MasterCard bank cards. The most common of them:

1. There is a restriction on the card for paying for online purchases
2. A plastic card is not intended for making payments online.
3. The plastic card is not activated for making payments online.
4. There are not enough funds on the plastic card.

In order to solve these problems, you need to call or write to the technical support of the bank where you are served. Bank specialists will help you resolve them and make payments.

That's basically it. The entire process of paying for a book in PDF format on car repair on our website takes 1-2 minutes.

Brake pads VAZ 2106

The braking system ensures the safety of the car. One of the main components of this system is the brake pads. The braking efficiency depends on their reliability and quality. The pads have a certain service life, so it is necessary to periodically check and replace them.

What are they used for?

When you press the brake pedal, the pressure in the hydraulic system increases and the pads are pressed against the surface of the brake disc or drum. Structurally, a brake pad is a plate on which a lining made of a special material is attached. It contains various components: special rubbers and resins, ceramics, synthetic fibers. The composition may vary depending on the manufacturer. The main requirements that the lining must meet are high wear resistance and the ability to withstand high temperatures, resistance to destruction, but at the same time the material must cause minimal wear of the brake disc.

What are there

The VAZ 2106, like other “classics”, has disc brakes at the front and drum brakes at the rear.

Front brakes

The front end braking system is designed as follows:

1. The brake disc is attached to the hub.
2. The caliper is fixed to the steering knuckle of the suspension and holds two working cylinders.
3. The brake pads are located between the disc and the cylinders.

The brake mechanism of the front wheel of a VAZ 2106 car consists of the following parts: 1 - fitting for bleeding the brake mechanism drive; 2 — connecting tube of working cylinders; 3 — wheel cylinder piston; 4 — wheel cylinder clamp; 5 — brake pad; 6 - sealing ring; 7 — dust cap; 8 — pins for securing the pads; 9 — bolt securing the caliper to the bracket; 10 — steering knuckle; 11 — caliper mounting bracket; 12 — caliper; 13 — protective casing; 14 - cotter pin; 15 — pad pressure spring; 16 - working cylinder; 17 — brake cylinder; 18 — brake disc

When you press the brake pedal, the pistons move out of the cylinders, press on the pads and clamp the brake disc together. As a result, the car gradually slows down. The more force is applied to the brake pedal, the harder the pads clamp the disc.

The front brake pad consists of a metal plate on which the friction lining is fixed

The front brake pads are flat and smaller in size compared to the rear ones.

Rear brakes

Drum brakes on the VAZ 2106 consist of a drum itself, two shoes, a hydraulic cylinder and springs located under the drum. The pad linings are fixed using rivets or adhesive. The lower part of the pads rests against the supports, and the upper part rests against the cylinder pistons. Inside the drum they are tightened by a spring. To allow the wheel to rotate freely when stopping the car is not required, there is a gap between the pads and the drum.

The rear wheel brake mechanism includes: 1 - brake cylinder; 2 — upper tension spring of the pads; 3 — pad lining; 4 — brake shield; 5 — inner plate; 6 — rear cable sheath; 7 — lower tension spring of the pads; 8 — front brake pad; 9 — pad support plate; 10 — rivets; 11 — oil deflector; 12 — pad guide plate; 13 — rear parking brake cable; 14 — rear cable spring; 15 — rear cable end; 16 — rear brake pad; 17 — block support post; 18 — lever for manual drive of the pads; 19 — rubber cushions; 20 — pad spacer; 21 — finger of the lever of the manual drive of the pads

When the driver presses the brake pedal, fluid is pumped into the slave cylinder, causing the pads to spread apart. They rest against the drum, thereby causing the rotation of the wheel to slow down.

The rear brake pads are shaped like an arc to ensure even pressure on the brake drum.

Which ones are better

Owners of Zhiguli cars are often faced with the issue of choosing brake pads. The modern auto parts market offers products from different manufacturers. The parts differ in both quality and cost. The following brands of brake pads can be installed on VAZ cars:

1. Ferodo (UK). The best products for brake systems that can be found on the automotive aftermarket today. The products are of high quality because they are made from reliable materials.

   
   Ferodo pads are of high quality and are the best choice on the market today

2. DAfmi (Ukraine, Australia). They have good technical characteristics, but are cheaper than advertised brands. The service life is identical to the previous version.
3. ATE (Germany). The products of this company are popular all over the world. Brake pads stand out for their reliability and durability.
4. Rona and Rounulds (Hungary, Denmark). Although the manufacturers are less well-known, their products are not inferior in technical characteristics to the market leaders.
5. AvtoVAZ. The main characteristics of the pads (braking efficiency, service life, impact on the brake disc) are no worse than their imported counterparts, and the likelihood of being counterfeited is much lower.

   
   Factory pads are not inferior in technical characteristics to imported analogues, and the likelihood of buying a fake is much lower

Prices for brake pads for VAZ 2106 start at 350 rubles. (AvtoVAZ) and reach 1,700 rubles. (ATE).
