Replacing the belt Lada Kalina in the initial configuration with an 8-valve engine. For more expensive Lada Kalina equipment with air conditioning, the accessory drive belt needs to rotate not only the generator, but also the air conditioner compressor pulley. The belt is replaced every 90 thousand kilometers. For work, you will need a pit or overpass, since some of the work must be carried out from the bottom of the car.

Marking of the drive belt for auxiliary units Lada Kalina 6RK 995 (six-V, length - 995 mm).

To replace the belt, we have to dismantle the right support of the power unit, as it passes through the belt. Remove the middle and right mudguards of the engine compartment from the bottom of the car. Next, we should remove the fender liner of the right front wheel, or by releasing all fasteners of the fender liner in the front and middle part of it, bend the fender liner behind the brake disc of the wheel.

We hang out and remove the right front wheel and release the fender liner mounts according to the diagram.

• Mounting points for the mudguard and wheel arch liner Lada Kalina:
  1 - self-tapping screw Torx T-27 for general fastening of the mudguard and wheel arch liner to the wheel arch;
  2 - two self-tapping screws Torx T-20 for general fastening of the mudguard and fender liner to the wheel arch and wing;
  3 - turnkey self-tapping screw Torx T-20 for fastening the fender liner to the wing;
  4 - four self-tapping screws "for 8" for fastening the wheel arch liner to the wheel arch;
  5 - four self-tapping screws Torx T-20 for fastening the fender liner to the front bumper.

We install a height-adjustable stop under the sump so that it takes the weight of the engine.

Using the E-14 head, unscrew the two screws securing the support to the engine cylinder block bracket. Using the "17" head, we unscrew the two nuts and the bolt of fastening the support to the side member of the body (shown by arrows).

If you have already loosened the tension of the accessory drive belt, now we can remove it from the pulleys and remove the belt from the engine compartment.

Install the new belt in the reverse order, ensuring the required belt tension by rotating the tensioner lead screw.

The deflection of the belt in the area between the pulleys of the engine and the air conditioner compressor at an applied force of 100 N (10 kgf) should be within 6–7 mm.

Attention! Do not overtighten the belt. Excessive belt tension will result in premature wear of the belt and alternator bearings.

To tension the Lada Kalina belt, there is a special tensioner.

From the side of the engine compartment with a 19 spanner spanner, loosen the tightening of the lock nut of the belt tensioner lead screw, holding the screw with a wrench or with a “8” head holding the nut, rotate the lead screw counterclockwise, tightening the belt.

The alternator belt, which drives the alternator in the Lada Kalina car, is one of the most important consumable components. The stability of the supply of electrical energy to all pantographs in the on-board network depends on its correct operation. Therefore, many are interested in the question of how to tighten the belt.

The loosening of the belt tension is accompanied by a whistling effect. And then the belt whistles. Also, an incorrectly made tension can cause rapid wear of the bearings and lead to the destruction of the structure of the consumable element itself. In this article, we will show you how to tighten the belt.

The main signs of belt drive wear include:

• the appearance of cracks;
• uneven abrasion of the working area;
• a burst of cords.

In order to prevent premature wear of this important consumable component, the owner of LADA Kalina will need knowledge of correct belt tension.

How to diagnose an item?

If the previously indicated sign of weakening of the belt drive showed itself in "all its glory", then the owner of Lada Kalina will need to check without delay and, if necessary, tighten the belt. This is easy enough to accomplish.

1. Press on the belt branch with the effort of your fingers and measure the deflection with a ruler.
2. When the amplitude of the deflection has exceeded 1 cm, the alternator belt needs to be tightened.
3. If you need the most accurate measurement result, we recommend using a dynamometer. With its help, the belt branch should be pulled back, applying an effort of 10 kgf. Now we measure the deviation in the same way. Its size should not exceed 15 mm.

Preparation at work

Before directly tightening the belt, you will need to perform a number of preparatory manipulations.

1. Clean the surfaces of the tensioner nuts of the LADA Kalina generator. A regular metal brush is suitable for this.
2. Wet said nuts with a penetrating agent such as WD-40 to ensure easy loosening.
3. Stock up on the required set of tools - keys, the dimension of which is "8" and "19".

Remember the importance of the procedure for timely tightening the belt, because with a weakened transmission, the efficiency of the generator is significantly reduced, and the on-board network suffers from power outages.

How to pull?

Let's move on to considering the stretching procedure. The agile owner will spend less than 15 minutes to complete the entire complex of manipulations and the generator belt will be back in operation. This eliminates the need to visit the service in order to empty your own wallet.

Procedure:

1. We find the tension bar.
2. We unscrew the lock nut on it. Some "masters" here can interfere with a tank with a washer fluid. Take it off temporarily.
3. Grasping the tensioner bolt, we rotate it until the required tension level of the belt drive is reached.
4. At the end, we tighten the lock nut with the required moment.
5. We check the tension level and, if it is normal, we congratulate ourselves on the successful fulfillment of an important mission, if the element is not tensioned enough, the tension is additionally adjusted. The check itself is as follows. Turning on the ignition, we turn our gaze towards the instrument panel, where the indicator should light up, tracking the battery charging. We start the engine Lada Kalina. If this indicator goes out within a few seconds, then everything is normal.

Let's summarize

As we have seen, adjusting the tension of the belt drive in Lada Kalina is within the power of even an inexperienced car owner. Most importantly, remember to check the status of this element in a timely and periodic manner. If you neglect this, then you can personally provoke more expensive ones in terms of eliminating breakdowns. Tighten correctly, based on the aspects given in this material, and then the alternator belt will serve you for a long time. At the first sign of belt wear, take steps to replace it. Operation of a worn-out component is fraught with its sudden breakage.

During machine operation, the alternator drive strap wears out quickly. It is necessary to constantly monitor its condition, since the functioning of the entire car depends on the correct operation of this mechanism. The procedure for replacing the alternator belt on Kalina is not a laborious operation and can be done by hand.

When to change?

On VAZ Lada Kalina cars, a belt drive of auxiliary units is used. On machines with air conditioning, the service life of such a belt is no more than 30 thousand kilometers. On simple versions of cars, the strap can last longer, but most owners try to change it after the same 30 thousand kilometers traveled. For various reasons, the belt may fail earlier, therefore, during the operation of the car, it must be periodically checked. There should be no cracks on the working track and no delamination on the outside of the belt. In the presence of such defects, the strap is immediately changed. Another signal to replace this element is a whistle or other noise during the operation of the unit.

The process of replacing the belt on Kalina with air conditioning (sixteen valves) is presented by a video from the user Alexander.

Belt and roller selection

Several types of belts are used on Lada Kalina cars.

The element type depends on the engine model and its equipment:

1. Motor version without air conditioner and tensioner - belt length 823 mm. Gates (number 6PK823) is used as standard, but such a part is not supplied for spare parts. A slightly different strap is used for replacement - Gates 6PK823SF.
2. A variant of the unit with a belt tensioner, but without air conditioning - 882-884 mm. Genuine Gates part (6PK882). In addition to it, straps are often used - Finwhale BP6883, Dayco 6PK888 or the cheapest Balakovo belt BRT882.
3. Engine with air conditioning and belt tensioner (motor 11183) - 1018 mm. Gates standard item (6PK1018). Alternatives are Dayco 6PK1018 or Continental 6PK1015.
4. The 16-valve 21127 engine with air conditioning and tensioner uses a 995 mm belt. A Gates part (6PK995) is supplied from the factory, and it is also used as a spare.

Sometimes, when replacing a belt, it becomes necessary to install a new tensioner. It is the same for all motors, its article number is 2123-1041056.

How to change it yourself?

The complexity of replacing the alternator belt on Kalina does not depend on the number of valves or additional units on the engine.

Replacement on 8 valve motors without tensioner

Replacing the belt on such an engine is the simplest, from the tools you only need a 13 mm wrench and a short flat-blade screwdriver. Since the tension is quite strong in such a drive scheme, when changing it is necessary to use only a six-V-belt Gates 6PK823SF or Dayco 825 with the additional POLY-V marking. The rest of the straps are too stiff, quickly collapse and damage the bearing on the generator shaft.

Stages of work

To complete the task, you need to do the following:

1. Unscrew the bolt of the lower mounting of the generator by 2-3 turns.
2. Unscrew the upper mounting nut, push out the bolt with a screwdriver and remove it completely.
3. Lower generator down. The lug of the mechanism must go through the gap between the radiator and the TV case.
4. Remove the old belt and replace it with a new one. If the strap does not fit easily over the pulleys, it can be tightened gently with a screwdriver.
5. Lift the alternator up, tensioning the belt.
6. Insert the bolt of the upper attachment point and tighten the nut.
7. Tighten the lower anchor point bolt.
8. Check belt operation.

The repair process on such a motor is well shown in the video filmed by the author Ilgiz Magafurov.

Replacement on 8 valve motors with tensioner

Here, the procedure for installing a new alternator belt is very different from the one presented above.

Required tools

To replace the generator belt yourself, you will need at least the following tools:

• regular or box wrench for nuts 13, 17 and 19 mm;
• ratchet head for 8 mm nuts; in its absence, an open-end or regular wrench of the same size will do;
• a screwdriver with a thin flat blade;
• thin needle;
• rags;
• white spirit or gasoline, about 0.5 liters;
• container and brush for washing;
• CV JOINT.

Stages of work

To adjust the degree of belt tension on Kalina motors, a mechanical tensioner is used, in contrast to the timing drive, which uses a hydraulic tensioner. When changing an element, it is recommended to carry out a preventive repair of the roller by adding fresh lubricant there.

To complete the work, you need to do the following:

1. Loosen the roller bolt. The thread on it is reversed.
2. Use a screwdriver to pry off the plastic cap on the roller and carefully remove it.
3. Loosen the retaining nut on the tensioner rod a few turns.
4. Loosen the belt tension by turning the rod nut clockwise. The nut must be unscrewed until the rod begins to move freely in the seat.
5. Unscrew the side bolt of the rod end stop located next to the tensioner roller.
6. Remove tensioner and lay to one side.
7. Proceed to dismantle the strap. The procedure must be started with the alternator pulley, while overcoming the slight resistance of the belt.
8. Remove the element from the crankshaft pulley and remove it completely.
9. Unscrew the roller bolt and remove it.
10. Use a needle to gently pry and remove the protective caps on the bearing. Flush the bearing with white spirit or gasoline.
11. Fill with fresh grease and fit the protective rubber covers.
12. Collect all the parts and mount the roller in place. When assembling, it must be remembered that the bushing is in the bearing from the side of the bracket.
13. Change the strap by installing it in the reverse order - from the crankshaft pulley to the alternator pulley.
14. Install the tensioner and turn the nut counterclockwise to start tightening the belt. It is necessary to tighten the nut until the resistance increases. A well-tensioned strap should be slightly squeezed by hand.
15. Tighten the tensioner rod retaining nut.
16. Check the operation of the mechanism, if a whistle occurs, pull the strap.

Replacement on 16 valve motors

The difficulty of replacing the alternator drive belt on such Kalina lies in the need to remove the front engine support.

Required tools

• socket for 11 mm hexagonal sprockets or TORX E14;
• two jacks;
• head or key 17 mm;
• ratchet head 8 mm.

Replacement process

In the process of performing work, you need to perform the following actions:

1. Raise the car on a jack and dismantle the right wheel, as well as the protective wheel arch liner and the boot boot.
2. Install a safety support under the bottom of the machine.
3. Remove the engine shield.
4. Raise engine under crankcase with a jack. A wooden support must be placed between the lifting part of the jack and the engine oil sump.
5. Remove the two TORX E14 bolts securing the power unit support to the bracket. If the screws are tight, you need to vary the position of the motor with a jack, achieving light rotation.
6. Remove the three TORX E14 bolts securing the support to the side members of the vehicle body.
7. Loosen the belt tension by unscrewing the fixing nut.
8. Rotate the nut 8 mm clockwise until the belt is completely loosened. Then you need to remove the strap and thread a new element through the place of the removed support.
9. If necessary, you can change the grease in the idler pulley. The circuit is completely identical to that described above.
10. Tension the belt by turning the nut 8 mm counterclockwise. The tension should be controlled by hand - the element should bend when pressed.
11. Fix the tension with a 19 mm nut.
12. Install all removed parts in reverse order.
13. Start the engine and check the operation of the drive. To do this, you need to load the belt as much as possible - turn on all electricity consumers and the air conditioner.
14. If a whistling sound occurs during operation, you must pull on the strap. To do this, on a running motor, you need to loosen the lock and carefully tighten the tensioner rod until the whistle disappears.
15. Tighten the retainer nut.
16. If whistling occurs during operation, the belt must be tightened further.

For a long time there were no topics in the blog about Kalina's electrical equipment and today I decided to demonstrate such a procedure as replacing the alternator belt on my own. This work is done easily and simply, and does not require special skills and knowledge, and a minimum of tools can be dispensed with. What exactly will be needed to complete this repair, I give a list below:

1. Key for 19
2. Head for 8 with ratchet or regular open-end, cap
3. Key for 13

Detailed instructions for changing the belt

So, first of all, you will need to loosen the large locking nut on the tensioner rod by making a couple of turns, clearly shown below:

And after that, it is necessary to loosen the tension of the alternator belt by twisting the rod itself clockwise, thereby loosening the belt. It is convenient to do this with a ratchet, approximately as shown in the following photo:

We twist until the stem looses and dangles freely. Then we unscrew its fastening bolt from below, see the picture in more detail:

And after taking out the bolt with the bushing and washer, lift the tensioner top and put it in approximately the same way as I did so that it does not interfere with the replacement in the future.

Now the belt is loosened enough and there are no more obstacles to removing it. First, we release it from the generator pulley, applying a little effort:

And after that we remove it from the crankshaft pulley:

When everything is ready, we take it out of there, turning it slightly to the side so that it does not cling to anything in order to avoid damage:

If, when inspecting the belt, it was found to be damaged and severely worn, then it will need to be replaced with a new one. The price of this part of the Lada Kalina is inexpensive and is about 300 rubles, so the pocket does not really pull. The installation is carried out in the reverse order and do not forget to adjust the tension to the required level. I will write about the adjustment in the next article today, if there is time, but I think that there is nothing difficult to understand, since everything is done in literally five minutes with two keys in hand. Later I will throw off the link here to the post, so that they do not search for a long time.
