Postmodernism displaced the classics. Postmodernism displaced the classics of VAZ 2104 when they stopped producing

VAZ-2104. (Since 2010, LADA 2104) - Soviet and Russian rear-wheel drive car with a 5-door body station wagon developed at the Volga automotive factory based on the VAZ-2105 model and produced here in the period from 1984 to 2003. In the future, the assembly of this model was carried out on several Russian and foreign car mooring enterprises. So, from March 2002 to September 17, 2012, LADA 2104 cars were collected in Izhevsk OJSC "Izhavto". In just this period, more than 200 thousand "fours" were released here. In addition, the assembly of this model was made at the plants of Roslada (Syzran, from 1999 to 2006), LUAZ (Lutsk, Ukraine, in 2001), Egyptian Suzuki Egypt (in 2002), Krasse (Kremenchug, Ukraine) and Anto-Rus (Kherson, Ukraine).

In various foreign countries, the VAZ-2104 model is known as Lada Nova Combi, Lada Riva Break, Lada Estate.

The production of "four" was started in 1984. From other classic vazov models, their body was distinguished by the universal, thanks to which the volume of the cabin was increased.

At that time, the fourth model was just the top of the dreams of a Soviet person. If the VAZ-2105 and VAZ-2107 were good, fashionable cars, then the "four" was a feature. It could be used in all situations. On the one hand, it was not ashamed to go somewhere. On the other hand, on this car it was possible, for example, to take a large TV or a refrigerator to the cottage and brought a pair of potatoes bags. In the early 1990s, it was prestigious to have a fourth model, since at that time there were still practically no foreign cars in the country.

The popularity of the VAZ-2104 in the 80s and the 90s of the 20th century, both in the Soviet Union and Russia and in the near abroad, was attracted to the buyer for the buyer by the value of the price of the price of the car. Back in 2000, the "four" could be found, for example, in Slovakia, where they were service cars of the local police. In addition, the fourth model appeared in the plots of many foreign artistic films, such as the "Born Superiority" and "Charlie and Chocolate Factory". The director of the second of them tried to transfer the atmosphere of the working area and used items for this Soviet production - a gas column, a TV "Youth" and the LADA 2104 car.

The VAZ-2104 wagon was launched into serial production in 1984 as a model replacement. As a basis for creating a car, a rear-wheel drive sedan was taken, "Four" was distinguished from it the back of the body, folding rear sofa and fuel tank of increased to 45 liters of volume. On the "fours" also for the first time in the domestic auto industry, the "janitor" of the rear with the washer was applied.

In the early 1990s, the car received the front panel and the seats from "". For exports, the car was supplied under the names of Lada Combi, (in the UK), Lada Nova Kombi (in Germany), (in Canada), Lada Kalinka Olympe (in France). In 1991, VAZ-2104 prices were 9100 rubles.

Initially, the wagon was equipped with a 1.3-liter carburetor engine (69 liters with.) And a four-stage gearbox. In subsequent years, the VAZ-2104 put a carburetor 1,5-liter engine and injection force aggregates of 1.5, 1.6 and 1.7 liters. Over time, the five-speed "mechanics" was replaced by a four-step. In the early 2000s, small-scale production of VAZ-21045 versions with a 1,5-liter diesel engine with a capacity of 50 liters were conducted. with.

Until 2003, the VAZ-2104 was produced in Tolyatti, and then its production was transferred to the IZH car plant. In Izhevsk, the "four" did until the fall of 2012, and in 2009-2010, due to the financial problems of the enterprise, the assembly of universal was suspended. Recent years, the car was equipped with a 1.6-liter engine (73 liters) with fuel injection.

A total of 1 million 142 thousand "fours" were released.

While the leading autocorporations are trying to create a certain publicly available long-haired model, from several conveyors in Russia and Ukraine such a car comes off with many thousands of circulation. Not only is this that is not a three-meter "supercompact", but a full-sized car, - he also has a version with the body of a wagon.

Of course, on European standards, "Four" is a frankly archaic machine: angular body, noisy engine, smooth rear-wheel drive. Modern overseas analogues and more dynamic, and more economical, and more beautiful, and more comfortable ... But for the buys a cargo-passenger car, a significant difference in prices of domestic and foreign universal prices is much more important.

When choosing a used "four", it is necessary to look for corrosion around the perimeter of the fifth door, in the other four, as well as on the front wings and in the angular trunk niches.

For without a small quarter-time production, the car "I made" a whole play of modifications, most of which concerned the power unit. At first, the basic was VAZ-2104 with a carburetor "five-mea" engine (1.3 l, 64 liters with.) - the first mass domestic engine with the camshaft belt drive. In 1994, this engine gave way to a 1.5-liter "tricious" unit (1.5 liters, 71 l.), And the base model received the index "21043". It is she who, equipped with a mechanical 5-speed gearbox, was produced in Izhevsk (Russia) and Cherkasy and Kremenchug (Ukraine).


And the "porous" (in the photo), and the "seven" torpedoes are harmlessly creak on irregularities.

The tachometer "Pyaterarny" shield is not equipped, but to control the revolutions is easily and without it - the engine is listening in the cabin.

In different years, serially produced versions with other motors: 1.6 liters (carburetor, IZH-VAZ-21041 index), 1.7 liters (monovosprysk, VAZ-21044 index and distributed injection, VAZ-2104121 index). With the 2000s in several thousand pieces in Tolyatti and Syzran, a diesel modification of the VAZ-21045D with a semi-fuzzy "atmospheric" of Togliatti structures was produced (53 l. P.). Since March 2006, the carburetor resigned - all the "four" became injection. Export modifications of the model were called Lada Nova Break, Estate and Family. They were usually completed with more powerful motors, 5-speed KPs, seven salon. Relief versions encountered in Ukraine, even converted to the left steering wheel, "calculated" by other janitors or "external" holes for them. The salon of most cars will be covered with an easily washed leatherette, but the VAZ-21047, together with the "seven" torpedo, received a tissue finish. After the transmission of the main production of the model from Tolyatti to Izhevsk (2003), the wagon was equipped with front seats from "ODD", and some batches of cars are also with plastic bumpers from "seven". The machines of the Ukrainian assembly are equipped with the same armchairs and "seven" torpedoes, and in the version of the Suite (VAZ-21043-02), the entire interior is borrowed from the VAZ-2107 sedan.


A significant drawback of the ventilation system in the conditions of the city is the lack of air recirculation regimen.

In the passenger "mode" in the back seat you can ride and threesome, although large people will be closed.

The main advantage of the "four" is the body, and in it - the main danger to the buyer of the used copy. The Togliatti "trailer" is spacious - 5 people are easily placed in the cabin, and in the luggage compartment - 455 kg of cargo by volume from 630 to 1230 liters. Unfortunately, the back of the rear sofa is only entirely. True, such a capacity provokes owners to overload, which may be disturbed by the geometry of doorways, the central racks and rear spars can be broken. On the factory conveyor in Izhevsk, where all the body is produced, the metal is grounded according to outdated technology, so when operating on "salty" roads, rust on it is not uncommon. The machine requires additional anti-corrosion protection, although the "purely" Izhevsk, and the Kremenchug cars have thresholds and other volumes "wondered" at the factory. In any case, if the condition of the body was constantly monitored, the metal could serve to two decades. Comfort in the "four", according to the current concepts, modest: leaves much to be desired by the best engine insulation, because of the uncomfortable landing on long-distance travel, the driver "pensions" legs and spin, and hard steering wheel is difficult to turn in the parking lot. But the pedals are characterized by informativeness, and the gearbox is the clarity of switching.


To increase the capacity, the rear seat folds (only entirely), under the floor - niche for "spare" and accessories.

All motors, which ever completed the "four", are created on the basis of the "kopeck" engine of the 1971 sample. These are the simplest designs, thanks to which they are achieved by their longevity. They consume at least 9.5-10 l / 100 in urban mode, but it may be cheaper A-92 or even A-80. When creating in these aggregates, a small settlement resource was laid in today's standards - 125 thousand km to the overhaul. But the plant allows such overhames to four! The cost of work and spare parts at the same time is small - using the components of the middle level, you can meet at 1500-2500 UAH. However, with competent operation and high-quality lubricants, many motors easily reach a run of 200 thousand km. And carburetor, and injection force units requires a high-quality air filter. Otherwise, the "Salex" will often be clogged with a hood jaw, and the injector "swim" is idle. If the injection machine is exploited a lot on the sprawers, the air filter is recommended to change more frequently - every 10 thousand km. The injection system will not require repair up to 100 thousand km, if you do not ride with a semi-empty tank and brush the nozzles every 20-30 thousand km, and after 30 and 70 thousand km change fuel filters - respectively, the main and fuel collector. Since cars like this class are not always "feeding" with high-quality gasoline, the candles of any of the engines are recommended to change after 10-20 thousand km. The rubber, like the timing chain, easily lives to 100 thousand km, and the timing belt is purely "five-paced" motors to be changed after 50 thousand km along with a roller. None of the modifications of the engines was not equipped with valve hydraulic components, so their gaps need to be monitored every 10 thousand km. The cooling system does not tolerate operation on water and mixtures of different antifreeze - this leads to corrosion of aluminum parts, premature leaks. The invaluable general plus of the "classic" power units, including injection, - all their features are thoroughly known service workers in any outback. There are no experience in the operation of diesel modifications in our country.

"Fours" with the front longitudinal arrangement of the engine have a drive to the rear wheels (on it and the "classic"), to which the cardan shaft with an intermediate support stretches from the gearbox (4 or 5-speed). The grip at reasonable operation serves to 80-100 thousand km - when it comes to change the release bearing and the slave disk. Basket, subject to the lack of factory marriage, "worries" several disks. The gearboxes of the Soviet period car (as a rule, 4-speed) many mechanics consider more than their later analogues. Possible problems of the latter - "knocking out" gears, difficult inclusion, bearing noise. The same opinion is also relative to the rear axle gearbox, which signals the malfunction in one or another mode of movement. It is noted that high-quality oils can not always extend the life of the aggregates of the "Classics" transmission. But these nodes should not disturb up to 100-120 thousand km.

The chassis of the VAZ-2104 could be more durable and simpler structurally, but it absorbs all the irregularities of domestic roads and inexpensive in repair.


Many household owners to increase the carrying capacity lift the rear of the machine, substituting the spacers for the springs.

The cardan transmission mounted on the machine at the factory can serve 70-80 thousand km, but it is not easy to find a high-quality cardan in spare parts. The question is removed by the competent replacement of the cross, if possible, followed by balancing. When buying, you should also check the backlash in the kardan slots, since it is possible to completely get rid of it, only replacing the shaft assembly. Nine pendants of spring pendants, in front - independent on two levers, rear - dependent, also lever. Soothing-intensive, well devoid of irregularities, providing good comfort, for which it is so respected by the residents of the province with her broken roads. The first ball supports and silent blocks of the front levers are the first to "surrender" - at a mark of 30-40 thousand km, later - shock absorbers and stabilizer bushings. Highly worn ball bearings can be collapsed on the go. Native Silent-Blocks of the back serve to 80-90 thousand km, after which the suspension will begin to knock when attaching. But even earlier, due to the wear of the mentioned "rubber bands" and the skew of the rear axle, the car will start to take away. "Native" shock absorbers live at least 50 thousand km. The inhomogeneous springs quality to 150 thousand km causes a violation of the "posture" of the car. The drawdown of the springs is not always explained by overloads.


Compared to McPherson "Vazovskaya" "multi-phase" is difficult to repair, but steadically tolerates riding the irregularities.

The rear suspension of universal is often "exhausted" by constant overwhelms, but its repair is also inexpensive.

The chassis is characterized by high maintenance, and spare parts and repair technologies are available and inexpensive. The fourth of the joints are the steering of the "four" - one of the remnants of the past. The mechanism of the Worm-Roller type creates a large resistance on the steering wheel, does not provide a clear feedback, and the amplifier in it is not provided in principle. But it does not transmire the beats of the wheels about irregularities to the beam, and the backlash and knocks arising due to wear are eliminated by a special adjusting screw - and it falls every 50-70 thousand km. Control, though more rare, require the sleeves of the pendulum lever of the steering trapezium. On the degree of their tightening depends the backlash and the effort on it. Some owners instead of the standard pendulum node (45 UAH) put a bearing, which reduces the effort on the steering wheel, but after wear it is replaced only in the collection (85 UAH). In the steering trapezium "Four" (like all "classics") - six hinges, the first to wear extremes in 50-60 thousand km.

The brake system with the front disk and rear drum brakes, although it does not have such modern improvements as ABS, ventilated discs, etc., but in general meets the dynamic possibilities of the car. It does not have characteristic weaknesses, except for the difficulties that cause the pads of the guide calipers when replacing the pads.

Yes, VAZ-2104 - by no means ideal. But the "four" is not so far from him, judging from the point of view of the dachank or a private entrepreneur who needs an unpretentious "workhorse." For five points on an old good school scale, the model is clearly "not pulling", but the firm "four" is probably deserved.

26.09.2012

On September 17, 2012, it will remain in the history of the domestic car industry a memorable day: AvtoVAZ put a point in the history of its "classic" models. On this day, the last car was released from the "classic" series - LADA-2104. Before that, the "classic" was produced at the facilities of the Izhevsk Automobile Plant. It was on "Izhavto" the release of the entire line of VAZ cars was translated.

After in Togliatti stopped their own release, Izhevsk automobile plant became the only one where the "classic" models Lada were going. The first Togliatti car, "moving" to Izh-Auto, was "six" - VAZ-2106. Next, gradually our new "house" found more and more vazov models. The VAZ-2106 followed LADA-2107, and then LADA-2104. It is the "Four" longer than everyone lasted on the production conveyor. Well, in exchange, a new budget VAZ model - Lada Granta, which is already produced at the "Izhavto" since the summer of 2012 comes.

However, the fact that the "classic" vazov models are no longer produced, does not mean that car data owners remain in a broken trough. "Izhavto" does not stop service and support these models for 36 followers, at a minimum. A wide range of spare parts for VAZ-2104 and other "classics" will also be issued.


Despite the cessation of the release of "Classics", in the stores "Auto-Alliance" you can find the entire range of spare parts on LADA-2104, as well as on other models of AvtoVAZ. Possessing large warehouse areas, the company can offer you the largest selection of spare parts for cars and other techniques. Here you can find both branded VAZ spare parts and products of other factories.

VAZ 2104. - Soviet passenger car with body type Wagon, designed at the VAZ factory. Serially produced from 1984 to 2012. The model was developed as replacing the outdated universal 2102. For some time, 2102 and 2104 were produced at the factory in parallel. When creating a new model, the plant went along the path of the smallest costs and used as a basic model VAZ 2105. All parts were maximally unified. To impart stiffness, there are empty on the roof of the new model. Unlike model 2102, heated rear window was installed on the "four" in the basic configuration. From the mid-1990s, the rear wiper will enter the base bundle. The base model received a salon from the model 2105. The universal load capacity was 455 kg, which almost doubled the maximum load capacity 2102. The model inherited the design of the rear door from its predecessor. Her edge coincided with the floor level, which facilitated the loading and unloading of baggage. The rear seat was evolving, forming a huge loading area.

VAZ-2104 modifications

The following models were produced: - 21041, 21043 and 21043-07, which are 1.2 liters, 1,5 liters and a "seven" cabin, respectively. In 1994, VAZ-2104 with an engine with a working volume of 1.3 l was removed from production. Today, the basic model has become a VAZ 21043 with an engine with a working volume of 1.5 liters and a five-speed manual transmission, which makes AW Tomobil VAZ 21043 more dynamic and enjoyable in control. Not so long ago, a modification of the VAZ-21045 with atmospheric (imminent) Diesel produced by BarnaulTransash, a volume of 1.52 liters appeared.

Design of salon and controls

Generally design model VAZ-2104, like all classic models, ascetic. But the inner interior of the car, depending on your desire, can be different. A more economical option assumes a standard panel with a minimally necessary set of switches and control - measuring instruments, an upholstery of the cabin and seats with standard head restraints of artificial leather, rubber floor mats. If you want more comfort, then you are offered an improved interior, an original steering wheel and the instrument panel with an additional central console, which is located an extended set of function key and control instrument. Superior Salon is a seating with a gripped knitwear (front with a highly raised back), door with all-mounted overlays, agitated floor mats. This version of the "fourths" will allow you even in a long trip to feel comfortable.

Engine VAZ-2104 and its features

Engine 2104-1000260. It can be used for installation on cars VAZ 2103, 2104, 2106, 21053, 2107.
Initially, the VAZ 2104 engine was produced only in carburetor performance. In the future, it was modified under the use of the fuel injection system and received the designation of the VAZ 2104-21.
The VAZ 2104 engine is created on the basis of the previous model - VAZ 2103. The design used: a cylinder block, a connecting rod-piston group, a timing and crankshaft from the engine 2103.


photo Engine VAZ-2104

Cylinder block from VAZ 2103 engine. Cylinder diameter - 76.00 mm. Completed interrontal dimensions - 76,40 and 76.80. The engine is installed on the engine crankshaft 2103 or interchangeable shaft of model 21213.
To ensure the operation of the injection system, it was necessary to install nodes and parts from other engines, which were originally developed under the injector fuel supply scheme. A new camshaft drive cover is applied, on which there is a place to install the sensor controlling the crankshaft position. It took the installation of the cylinder head of 2104-1003015, the original design, with increased sites under the intake manifold. The head design provides for the installation of nozzles. The camshaft, valve and springs correspond to the VAZ 2103 installed on the engine. Installation of the valve levers hydrophropor is not provided.
The timing of timber is carried out from a two-rowed sleeve roller chain 2103-1006040. The mechanical tension mechanism is a mechanical, similar to the device on the VAZ 2103 engine.

The crankshaft is installed with a damper and a master disc 21214-1005058-11. For the generator drive, the belt 2107-1308020 is used (length - 944mm). Injector modification 2104 has an original power system. The system includes an electrical displacement with a fuel level indicator sensor, fuel lines, fuel filter fuel ramp with nozzles, air filter, air supply sleeves, throttle and fuel vapor searches. To clean the air filter entering the air, the model 2112 air filter is provided. The receiver of the model 2104 or model 2123-1008027 is installed with the intake manifold. An throttle nozzle 2112 is installed to adjust the volume of the incoming air.
The module of the electrical space 21073-1139009 is installed in the tank and provides fuel supply to the fuel ramp and nozzles. The original fuel ramp 2104-1144010, a box-type with a pressure regulator and a feed plum pipeline is used. Injection is carried out with the help of four injectors in pair-parallel action. Installation of Bosch 0 280 158 502 nozzles (black, thin), Siemens VAZ 6393 (beige, thick) or other types with the corresponding parameters are possible.
The ignition system includes: Ignition module 2112, installed on a special bracket on the cylinder block, spark plug and high voltage wires. The ignition module includes two ignition coils and two electronic control devices. In accordance with the control signals from the control unit, the ignition module generates and supplies high-voltage pulses to spark plugs.
Ignition management is assigned to the electronic engine control system. This system ensures control of the amount of air and fuel supplied to the cylinders, controls the operation of the fuel pump, controls the supply of high-voltage pulses from the ignition coil to the spark plug and adjusts the ignition advance angle, adjusts the rotational speed of the crankshaft at idle. The main control element of the system is the electronic control unit (ECU) -Controller.
The engine complies with Euro-2 toxicity standards.
