If you find that the VAZ 2106 rear axle(reducer) overheats strongly or makes characteristic noises, in this case only its replacement will save the situation. It’s really easy to change this detail - even a novice car enthusiast can handle it.
Do I have to change it?
Of course, there are other ways to solve the problem.Instead of buying a new part, it is possible to repair the VAZ 2106 gearbox. However, it is not recommended to do this in the garage, as you simply cannot set the gap in the gear meshes correctly. That is why the most reliable solution will be to buy a new item. Fortunately, its cost is not so much high (about 4 thousand rubles), so from a financial point of view, your costs will be minimal.
Cooking tools
In order to replace the rear gearbox VAZ 2106 quickly and correctly, we need to prepare the following set of tools:
- Set of wrenches and cap wrenches.
- "Plus" and "minus" screwdriver.
- A solvent like White Spirit or a bottle of gasoline.
Getting Started
To proceed with the dismantling of the bridge, you must first drive the car to a viewing pit or overpass. Then it is necessary to drain the oil and disconnect the drive shaft with the flange of the gear shank.
After that, the axles are removed from the car andwith the aid of the end barb, 8 fixing bolts are unscrewed, which connect the gearbox to the beam. Then you can safely remove from the car VAZ 2106 rear axle (gear). At this stage, you can go in two ways - to install a new element or try to dig into the old one. In the first moment, the assembly of elements is performed in the reverse order, but we will tell you about how to proceed in the second case in the following sections.
About sealing elements and their replacement
Note that the first models of "Six"the connection of the bridge and the flanges was done with a seal with a special gasket. A few years later, instead of it, they began to try on a sealing oil-resistant agent on the conveyor. Therefore, in any case, it is necessary to update this seal in the process of reverse installation.
Что необходимо делать далее?In the next step, you need to thoroughly clean the surface of the reducer connectors from the sealing substance, and then degrease this surface with a cloth previously soaked in gasoline. If you use white spirit, take care of additional means of respiratory organs protection. Also, the threads of the fastening bolts and the holes for them located in the can are subject to degreasing.
Further, all these surfaces are treated with a new oil-resistant sealing agent. The thread of the locking bolts is lubricated with a special locking compound.
Then the bridge gearbox is mounted in the beam andevenly (crosswise) is tightened with bolts. Installation of the remaining elements is performed in the reverse order. Finally, it is necessary to pour new oil into the rear axle.
How to pour oil?
Before revealing the replacement features,We note that this instruction can be used not only for cars of the Model 2106. A similar algorithm for changing the oil can be observed in VAZ models 2101, 2102, 2104, 2105, as well as models 2107.
So, what do we need to do to change the oil?First you need to unscrew the drain plug with an Allen key. Next, we put some capacity and unscrew the filler element. After the oil is well glass, we wrap the cork back in and with the help of a special oil blower (or a large syringe) we pump in gear oil here. Lem to the level of the bottom edge of the hole. Next, we tighten the cork, and on this you can safely begin to operate the car.
Sometimes the substance in the gearbox can be hardpolluted. In this case, before pouring in a new fluid, we thoroughly wash the crankcase or gearbox with a mixture of diesel fuel and oil (not necessarily transmission). In proportion goes to a liter of oil about 300 milliliters of diesel fuel.
How to adjust the gearbox VAZ 2106 do it yourself?
This operation is performed after eachdisassembling and repairing this part. But not always. It is possible to determine whether the gearbox needs adjustment by the presence of axial play of the drive gears. This is done using the indicator with the cost of division in 0.01 millimeter. Check for backlash is performed with the propeller shaft disconnected by moving the flange in the axial direction.
The indicator leg is installed in the end partflange. By adjusting the tension, the axial clearance in the bearings is removed. You can make a similar adjustment by adjusting the thickness of the adjusting rings. How does the rear axle (gearbox) change on a VAZ 2106 car?
Before final assembly of the gearbox followsCheck also gearing gears. In order to do this, you need to paint the teeth of the device with some bright paint. It is not recommended to use too liquid for this work, as it is not suitable for its properties (it will simply spread over the teeth). But the thick one should not be preferred - this will not squeeze out from the intervals between the elements (that is, there will be no result from it). After applying the paint, it is necessary to rotate the pinion gear in different directions. In this case, it is necessary to stop the momentum when it hits the slave. This should be done as long as there is no clear contact patch on the teeth. According to it, we determine the correctness of the adjustment.
If in the course of the work you havethe need to move the driven gear, this can be done by changing the thickness of the set of shims. The latter are installed between the end of the gear and the inner ring of the rear bearing.
So, we figured out how to replace the car VAZ2106 rear axle (gear) and how to properly adjust it. By the way, on services for similar work they take from 2 to 3 thousand rubles - almost the full cost of the most replaced part.
