How much does a car weigh. How much does a VAZ 2104 passenger car weigh technical specifications injector

In September 1984, the first VAZ 2104 cars left the VAZ assembly line. The car became the fourth station wagon solution for the domestic market of the USSR (after Moskvich-427, GAZ-24-02 (Volga) and VAZ 2102 (Zhiguli or Lada). However , like other Ladas, the VAZ 2104 was also successfully exported, both to the countries of the socialist camp and to capitalist countries.Cars modified at VAZ turned out to be in great demand, especially where, like in the USSR, there were difficulties and with car services, and with the quality of roads.The durability and unpretentiousness of VAZ cars made them a popular export product.

Engine Specifications

The engine of the VAZ 2104 car, hidden in an additionally reinforced body, is an overhead motor with a volume of 1.2 liters, a capacity of 64 horsepower. However, after the collapse of the USSR, the VAZ 2104 began to be assembled, including at the Izhevsk Automobile Plant, where the model was modernized and equipped with an injection engine with a volume of 1.6 liters.

In 1998, an experimental batch of station wagons was produced at the Barnaultransmash enterprise - 50 VAZ 2104 vehicles equipped with a 1.57-liter diesel vortex-chamber engine. And four years later, diesel engines for "fours" began to be installed both in Barnaul and in Syzran, where VAZ cars were also assembled. Then it entered the market new VAZ 21048 equipped with diesel engine, the volume of which has grown to 1.8 liters.

car transmission

The first VAZ 2104 cars were equipped with standard 4-speed manual gearboxes. However, in new version In the same Izhevsk Automobile Plant VAZ 2104 (1і), the first cars with 5-speed mechanical transmissions appeared.

Brake system and power steering

Despite a significant resemblance to the original produced at the Fiat factory, brake system in cars of the VAZ family, in view of the more severe operating conditions, it remained drum (and not disk).

On versions of the VAZ 2104 produced at the Izhevsk Automobile Plant, electrics became increasingly important, especially since in the new century it was increasingly difficult for the consumer to imagine a car without power steering.

Tire size

Dimensions

The body frame of the VAZ 2104 was inherited from its counterpart, but the back and roof were from the VAZ 2102. Compared to the VAZ 2102, the area has increased rear window, and besides, it received its own windshield wiper and heating system. The shape of the rear (fifth) door has also changed. But the interior of the VAZ 2104 is almost completely identical to the VAZ 2105 and sedans.

It should also be specially noted that on the basis of the VAZ 2104, small-scale production of the VAZ 21043-33 pickup truck with a carrying capacity of more than 300 kilograms was mastered. Subsequently, the model was upgraded, with an increase in carrying capacity up to half a ton.

Dynamics

Fuel consumption

Vehicle stability and handling are also directly related to its weight. The peak of popularity of large, heavy cars abroad fell on 50-60 years of the last century. Then the auto industry produced truly gigantic cars. For example, Cadillac Eldorado modification 8.2 weighed almost 3 tons. Agree that for such a weight and a makeweight, an appropriate one is needed.

But over time it became clear that further development and improve the most important characteristics car, it is necessary to resort to reducing its total weight. And if we compare the middle of the last century and today, then cars have lost half, or even more than their own weight. Plastic, carbon fiber, light metals - all these innovations have made it possible to make the weight of a passenger car much lower.

Of course, for lovers of everything big and heavy, cars are produced that look like steamboats that drink gasoline in buckets, but this is rather an exception to the rule.

Reviews of the owners of the VAZ 2104

VAZ 2104, 2007

This car did everything that was required of it: it drove everything and everyone when it was required of it, sometimes in terrible conditions (VAZ is not a pity). The injection motor, despite the passport weakness, dragged the light “four” very cheerfully. So much so that the engine did not match the brakes. The empty car accelerated quite quickly, allowing you to maintain cruising speed on the highway in the region of 120-130 km / h, having a good margin under the pedal. All overtaking - no problem. Many say "VAZ - does not go, how does it accelerate at all" - yes, that's very simple. You need to overtake from 60 km / h, turn on the third gear, press on the floor and, in general, a vigorous spin up to 5000 rpm follows, which is the equivalent of 100 km / h. You can switch to 4th and accelerate further. The problem is not to accelerate. Stop problem. At emergency braking from 120 km / h, a loaded VAZ 2104 stops slowing down by about 40 km / h. The brakes overheated, however. A couple of times I got into very unpleasant situations when I had to go to the side of the road. Forgot to check the fuel consumption. On average - 10 liters. And it doesn't really depend on driving style. If you save, it will drop to 9.5. If you "burn" - it will rise to 10.5-11. On the highway, if you go 120-130 - about 8.5 eats. For such a mass, of course, a lot, although the motor is old, the aerodynamics of a brick, what to take from it. In terms of comfort of movement in Russian pits, the VAZ 2104 can compete with many modern machines and many "do" in this discipline. Soft suspension does its job. As a result, the car "floats" through the pits. Like a ship. The truth is rocking like a ship. But in any case, this is better than counting each hole as a “fifth point”. And this "point" is a pity, you know. Reliability - I can safely say that I was lucky. The car has never broken down enough to stop. The main problem was - "glitches" of the instrument panel, when the dipped beam was turned on, half of the sensors went off scale, the speedometer turned off. Only the tachometer remained - the most important instrument, in fact. All warning lights were working properly. I changed the ball joint, the right one. And that's because it's his own fault - he ran into a cobblestone so that it seemed that the suspension had been torn off. And in the end, only the ball rattled. I changed the cardan cross - it costs every penny. Yes, in general, and all for more than 30 thousand km.

Advantages : smooth running. No pity. For such money, there are no new cars with such consumer qualities. Peppy and omnivorous engine.

Flaws : brakes. Electrician. Safety.

VAZ 2104, 1996

So I decided to remember the VAZ 2104 with a kind word. For my 12 years old at the time of purchase, she was in excellent condition. Re-export technique ("finca"). Well, first things first. Took my friend's father. Purchase price - 45 thousand rubles. A couple of small "bugs" - and that's it. Otherwise - excellent condition. Round dances were performed over the engine in services. Rare equipment with mono-injection from GM and without a distributor ( electronic ignition). He was afraid of an unfamiliar structure, but he never climbed into it. Everything is like clockwork. Box - 5 steps. Salon - 2107. Traveled around the city (up to 100 km per day). Periodically to Moscow. On the Moscow Ring Road VAZ 2104 was 140 (and dissatisfied people blinked behind me that I was slowly driving). Mostly traveled 80-90 km / h. I'm not a racer. Like any Zhiguli at that age, she was a little pestered by trifles. From a large one, I changed the starter and alternator. Maintenance - 2 times a year (oil, filters, miscellaneous). Well, a little every day. In the cabin at -25 it is clearly cold. Noisy. Body - in my case, there were no complaints. On the conscience lay the primer and paint. The "beetles" did not climb much. For comparison - on the VAZ 2105 2006 onwards. my stepfather, after a light blow, the paint from the wing climbed in patches. No traces of soil were found. Engine - semi-synthetic oil 10W40. Finnish. I don't remember Mark. Didn't open. Didn't climb. Replaced starter and alternator with new ones. Attempts to repair did not help (2-3 months after the repair and again a breakdown). Not bad in terms of dynamics (95 hp, though). Pulled confidently. Chassis - did not climb. Collapse-convergence for prevention. Gearbox and clutch did not cause comments. There is nothing to tell about the cabin. Nothing creaked, but the car is noisy. Consumption - liters in 10-11 in the city fit. Summary for myself: normal working technique. Especially for such money. Well, if possible, I sold it (I gave it to the wonderful hands of a 78-year-old grandfather) and bought a Volvo 940. That's another story.

Advantages A: low price and content. Simple construction.

Flaws : constantly on trifles requires attention and inexpensive maintenance.

VAZ 2104, 1997

During the operation of the VAZ 2104, by and large, it never seriously let me down. Everything technical breakdowns I solved during the working day. With a run of 175 thousand, I did nothing with the engine. I just adjust the valve clearances regularly. Since the last 75 thousand were equipped with a HBO car. When the car was not yet a year old, a “penny” caught up with me on the highway. Hit the rear bumper. Saved the installed factory hitch. If not for him, the damage would have been serious. And so I replaced the rear bumper beam. Even the back door remained intact and without scratches. All in all, I got off lightly. Then, after a year of operation, in general, one of the most serious damage. And it's all the fault of the factory. Once, when I came to the garage, I found a small speck of oil under the car. By smell determined that the transmission. It turned out that it was dripping from under the rubberized cover, which is in the back end of the box. I looked closely, the cover half crawled out of the seat. He took it with his hand and pulled it out. Oil gushed out from under it. And a long bolt came out at 12. He dragged him and almost gasped. It was cut off at the thread. It was this bolt that squeezed out this plug with its head. I took the literature and saw that it was a gear bolt reversing and fifth gear. Decided to do it myself. About other breakdowns and write is not worth it. Since these were minor current breakdowns, which did not take much time to eliminate. And, of course, "consumables". It's like everyone else. Ball changed everything in a circle, in turn. Well, this is understandable, because the roads are like that. Exhaust system there is already a second one. In addition to everything, I had to weld both the muffler and the resonator more than once. Shock absorbers, interestingly two, are still relatives. And yet they work well. Replaced one front, right and rear, too, right. For the typewriter especially I do not regret anything. Well, I pour “mineral water” oil. What you like about the VAZ 2104 is, of course, the station wagon body. A handy thing for a gardener. Easy to load in trunk. There is no threshold. The car is very maneuverable in the city and limited space. Because it's pretty short. In short, than the same rest of the "classic". Despite the fact that the car is carbureted, it is quite satisfactory in terms of consumption. Like a passport. In the city 10, outside the city 8. When switching to gas, it does not bother at all.

Advantages : inexpensive to operate. Comfortable car for a man with a master's streak.

Flaws : ascetic equipment.

VAZ 2104, 1996

I bought my VAZ 2104 by accident. Having sold my Nissan, I realized that I would either buy something, or just spend all the money for nothing. After thinking, I decided to take the "four". Fortunately, I already had such a car. No sooner said than done. I bought a "corpse" for 15 thousand. It did not start and stood for 2 years. The previous owner pushed the car to the fullest. After buying a month, only the car was brought into a divine form - so that it could drive itself without problems. Replaced the entire chassis, engine, gearbox. The electrician has been redone - the entire collective farm will be thrown out. Approximately kg of wires removed. The man did not bother and threw everything directly. All restored. Running VAZ 2104 on our roads withstood only 3 months. Whether the parts are caught or I do not know. In general, in the spring again went over everything. TREK reinforced ball joints. TREKovskie silent, shock absorbers Fenox. Rubber stabilizer made of polyurethane. Well, like the front end gathered together. New steering from 2107, on the back, too, all the silents were killed. I changed everything myself. After all the work, the machine reciprocated. Behaves calmly. Somehow I had to load my hard worker specifically. Estimated 600-700 kg. Not far, but still rested without consequences. In general, the car constantly requires attention, well, just like a wife. I drove my Nissan in the tail and mane. All withstood nothing broke, but then it won’t work like that. Constantly some kind of trifle but crawls out sideways. The suspension is rather weak and often breaks through the Saratov roads, although I try to go around the pits. Sometimes there is simply nowhere to go.

Advantages : cheap parts. Workhorse.

Flaws : broken.

VAZ 2104, 1993

So, VAZ 21043, what it is. Carrying capacity - drove pieces of iron for acceptance. The weight of an empty car with me is one hundred and forty tons. Sometimes I "jumped" on the scales and a ton of six hundred and a ton of six hundred and ten. So she is lucky and the power of the high-torque engine with a margin. What does it say? Yes, that if there are five of you in the car and you went to rest, you will not be particularly crowded. Despite the fact that you take a brazier, a smoker, rods and spinning rods, two canisters of water, bags of food and a lot of all the necessary stuff, which you can’t do on the same “six” or do it great by making room. The interior of the VAZ 2104 is well improved compared to the same "two". There is a shelf in the back of the trunk that saves heat in winter and pushes dust aside in summer. The shelf is held on the left and right by two plastic sides in which there is a hole for the speakers and, in my opinion, 4GD-35 were installed in them. Excellent speakers. Didn't change. Now in stores they sell speakers 10, 13 cm or more, but I measured this Soviet speaker does not meet the standards and I will not change anything yet. We'll have to think something with the holes there and with the fit, but these are like cast ones. Now let's talk about how to arrange a sleeping place. If you fold the rear seat, as provided for by the design, the trunk does not increase much, but if you unscrew the rear “seat”, fold the back of the rear seat after placing a bar of 10-12 cm under it, and adjust the removed “seat” between the front seats shifted forward and folded the back in length will turn out to be about 180 cm. This is quite enough. The only thing is that sleeping together is a little uncomfortable because of the plastic covers over the rear wheel arches. Inconvenient, but possible.

Advantages : practical. Big trunk.

Flaws : like all VAZs.

VAZ 2104, 1997

The car was used from the very beginning on gas due to the low cost of fuel. In general, this gas is good, but it is necessary to serve more carefully than gasoline (you understand). Annual replacement of gaskets and adjustment of the gearbox, this is now being worked out by the electronics, and earlier you switch the toggle switch yourself, but these are trifles. In cold weather, the VAZ 2104 never failed, confidently but with difficulty it started at 35-37 degrees, of course it didn’t strain much, but if there was a need, it started, it was enough to turn the crankshaft with a “ratchet” a couple of times (whoever used the “classic” will understand) and all the motor came to life. The VAZ 2104 stove worked 100%, it was always warm in the car, of course, the rear passengers lacked additional tunnels in their legs, the windows never fogged up. The suspension, compared to the Lancer, is soft, eats up all the bumps on the road, except for the traction and tips, shock absorbers, but this is already after many years of operation. I wanted to write about the rubber, no matter how they scolded it, it didn’t let us down, the native BL-85 passed up to 80 thousand km without complaints, then the rubber began to beat, and it was replaced, although the tread was not worn off. Now it is safely used on a trailer. I also remember that the VAZ 2104 more than once met newly made cars from the salon, this is my Logan in 2007 and my father's 5-door Niva in 2009 and accompanied them in the haul from Tyumen to Tobolsk.

Advantages : did not let down in the winter. Warm oven. Suspension.

Flaws : small.

VAZ 2104, 2011

Let it be a VAZ 2104, but when it was new, this smell, everything is perfectly clean, so what can I say, the most best car- it new car. What first caught my eye - not the most best build, large gaps, slightly crooked plastic, etc. The 74.5 hp engine is peppy, makes it easy to stay in city traffic, pulls at low speeds and speeds. You can go 40 km/h in 4th gear. Over 100 km / h, the VAZ 2104 is hard to pick up speed, and it’s scary further. The gears are switched on clearly and clearly, it is hard to confuse, sometimes the reverse does not turn on, every other time it is necessary. There is no sound insulation, and when you drive on the highway there is unreal noise, and if you open the window, you can’t hear the passengers at all, in winter there is a rumble from the wheels. Salon, of course, the VAZ 2104 is outdated. It is not very convenient to sit behind the wheel, I would like more space in the back, but with my height of 183 cm, I don’t rest on my knees. It’s a bit cramped for three people of average build in the back, there are no air ducts to the passengers’ feet. The trunk is the main advantage of this car, which we just didn’t transport in it, and if you fold the rear sofa, you get a huge space with a flat floor. In summer, the interior of the VAZ 2104 quickly becomes dirty and dusty. But it's easy to wash and wipe. Since I am the only one cleaning the car, I wiped everything every day. In the spring, summer and early autumn, the VAZ 2104 was constantly cleaned, washed it, because. I can not stand the mess and dirt in the car. Handling is good, but at high speeds it must be caught. Accelerated to about 115-120 km / h. The brakes with a vacuum booster, of course, are not like those of foreign cars, but the pedal is soft, the clutch pedal is hard, which is inconvenient in traffic jams. In winter, the VAZ 2104 starts up perfectly, from 1 time. At temperatures below 20, it is necessary to squeeze and hold the clutch pedal for a couple of minutes until the oil warms up. The engine warms up quickly, the stove works at 5, only loudly.

Advantages : price of car and spare parts. Huge trunk, you can carry anything. Ease of maintenance. Well, the fact that this is your own car, not on the tram.

Flaws : Poor build quality. Poor quality parts. Simple things break. Outdated interior and exterior of the car. Safety. Interior quickly gets dirty and dusty. Windows sweat in the rain.

For the creation and development, the following principles were taken into account: minimum production costs, as well as satisfaction of the desires of consumers. As a result of small changes, the body of the car was lengthened, a more spacious trunk appeared in it, the total load of the car became 455kg, and even more with the rear seats folded down. In addition, it became possible to install another long trunk for not very heavy loads on the roof. All this and many other details have made consumers convinced for many years that the VAZ 2104 is a good car.

The technical characteristics of the VAZ 2104 (including the VAZ 21043 and the VAZ 2104 diesel) are as follows: a five-seat station wagon, an engine capacity of 1.5 or 1.7 liters, a four-speed manual gearbox. The volume of the trunk is 375 liters, with the rear seats folded down 1340 liters.

The device and dimensions of the vase 2104: length is 4115 mm, width 1620 mm, height 1445 mm.

Numerous reviews about the car, albeit not always positive, confirm that this car is really popular and affordable. In addition, maintenance and repair of the VAZ 2104 can be done independently with minimal financial costs. And how many do-it-yourself options for tuning the VAZ 2104 over the years of its operation have been demonstrated by various craftsmen, ranging from engine modernization to converting the body into a convertible or limousine.

And the easy operation of the car (gasoline and diesel) gives you a lot of room for experimentation and improving your skills.

VAZ-2104 Zhiguli / Lada Nova Break is a five-seater wagon with a classic layout, belonging to the second generation of the "classics" of the Volga Automobile Plant.

Since the end of 1984, this five-seat station wagon of the second generation of the "classics" has replaced the station wagon of the "first" generation - VAZ-2102, on the conveyor, but they were produced together for another year.

The Zhiguli wagon VAZ-2104 remains the most popular domestic small-capacity utility vehicle. He enjoys a strong reputation as a family car and a delivery van for the city "tent trade", so, perhaps, the fashion for him will never pass. The following factors played an important role in this: the availability of spare parts and services, a decent cargo volume of the cabin, a relatively modern design (although obsolete, but for a station wagon this is not the biggest drawback) and relatively low cost. V basic configuration interior trim is quite ascetic, like the base VAZ-2105 sedan.

The VAZ-21043 model, produced in parallel with the VAZ-2104, is a more powerful modification with a VAZ-2103 engine with a working volume of 1.5 liters (carburetor 2107) and a five-speed mechanical box VAZ-21074 gears, completely unified with a four-speed gearbox, which makes the car more dynamic and enjoyable to drive.

Some cars, starting from the 90s, are equipped with a VAZ-2107 type dashboard. The cost in this case is slightly higher. Even more expensive on the market are the station wagons of the VAZ-21047 modification, equipped with a radiator lining, five-speed gearbox gears, electrical equipment and interior with bucket-shaped front seats from the VAZ-2107. In fact, this option can be considered a modification of the "luxury" VAZ-2107 with a station wagon body. The upgrades that affected the VAZ-2105 or VAZ-2106 models left aside the "four-station wagon", but nevertheless, some differences in the electrics and power system are possible on the 1984, 1988 and 1990 models.

Folding rear row of seats allows you to increase the volume luggage compartment from 375 to 1340 l, and then even a two-chamber refrigerator can be transported in a package. But the back of the rear seat folds only as a whole, because of this, it is impossible to simultaneously transport a long load and one or two passengers on back seat. The body structure allows you to place a long trunk on the roof, but it is not recommended to overload it: the estimated rigidity of the station wagon body is much lower than that of the VAZ-2105 and VAZ-2107 sedans (therefore, there are stampings on the roof panel to increase rigidity). The full load of the car must not exceed the allowable 455 kg, otherwise, during movement, due to dynamic loads, the body and load-bearing parts are deformed and violate the suspension geometry. You should also not get involved in towing heavy trailers - the body can "lead". By the way, because of this, you should not overpay for having a towbar on a used copy. Therefore, when buying a "VAZ" station wagon two or three years ago, try the car on the go and carefully (it is advisable to invite a specialist) examine the attachment points of the suspension shock absorbers, levers and power elements of the chassis.

The tailgate on cars until 1994 was equipped with windshield wipers only in export versions, among which the VAZ-21044 versions with a 1.7-liter engine, equipped with a central injection system instead of a carburetor and a catalytic converter, have recently become common. The VAZinterservice company, on the basis of a station wagon, assembles a VAZ-21043-33 pickup truck with a payload capacity of 450 kg in small batches. When buying a VAZ-2104, pay attention to the condition of the inside of the niche in the trunk, where the spare wheel and fuel tank, as well as the condition of the seal back door. Usually old, long repainted re-export cars with " twisted- speedometers and with an external gloss they give out precisely hidden cavities, to which the "hands" of deceitful sellers "did not reach". In cars that have worked out their time, there are overcooked sections of the body, and on the spar passing over rear axle, - cracks. Buying these cars is a waste of money.

Depending on your desire, the VAZ-2104 from the inside can be different. The Spartan version involves a standard panel with the minimum necessary set of switches and instrumentation, upholstery and seats with standard artificial leather headrests, rubber floor mats. The desire for more comfort will be satisfied with improved seat upholstery (front - with a high backrest) made of brushed knitwear, fully molded door linings, brushed floor mats. This feeling will be emphasized by the instrument panel with an additional center console, which has an expanded set of function keys and control equipment, and the original steering wheel. But in both versions, you are reliably protected by inertial (front and rear) seat belts.

In 1994, the VAZ-2104 with a 1.3-liter engine was discontinued. Today basic model became VAZ-21043 with an engine displacement of 1.45 liters, VAZ-21043-02 with 07 saloon and dashboard. Not so long ago, a modification of the VAZ-21045 appeared with diesel engine manufactured by Barnaultransmash, 1.52 liters, VAZ-21044-40 with central injection.
