As a rule, every owner of a “ten” is concerned that the engine crankcase protection of the VAZ 2110 injector, to put it mildly, leaves much to be desired. What is standardly installed on a car from the factory?
Only a plastic mudguard that protects the crankcase block from dirt, water, and, perhaps, from a slight touch on a bump. Usually, modifications are made by the vast majority of car enthusiasts, installing a full-fledged system with their own hands that can protect the engine block.
Engine boot
After all, whatever one may say, our roads, even in cities, are not conducive to soft touches; if you run into a pothole, then just be careful and consider the subsequent malfunctions, despite all the skills in driving the car.
What is the threat of a blow from below?
Front-wheel drive VAZ (injector) is at risk for the possibility of crankcase damage. The engine mount of the VAZ 2110 is designed so that it is located, as they call it, on an overhang.
This, firstly, leads to the fact that the oil pan is located quite low. Secondly, due to, albeit insignificant, movement of the engine during braking on the brackets, the car “nods” quite easily, and if it hits, for example, a large stone, this can cause serious malfunctions.
Engine oil sump
It is believed that an additional bracket, which can be found quite easily on sale today, can help the motor “hold on” better. Such a bracket holds the engine block in front, but still cannot protect it from impact.
Possible problems
There are several situations when the crankcase hits the road surface. Their consequences can be very different.
Therefore, let's look at the most common situations and determine what you, as the driver and owner of the car, should do.
A dent has formed, but the breakdown is not visible
There is a high probability that as a result of such damage the breather, that is, the oil receiver, has broken.
You should not rejoice prematurely if no traces of oil leaks are found after the impact.
The breather for the “ten” is often made of plastic or aluminum. Its design includes an oil pickup tube. It is located slightly above the tray - about 5 centimeters. Therefore, the place where the tube breaks may be higher than the existing oil level.
If such an impact occurs, immediately turn off the car and stop.
Next, you should check the breather for a break:
- Start the engine by performing a test run. If the oil sensor light does not go out, there is a high probability that the breather will break;
- Turn off the power unit;
- Add oil to the crankcase, then start the engine;
- If at the same time an oil stain appeared under the car, the breather still broke. You will have to call the evacuation service;
- If the oil pressure sensor light goes off, you can hope that nothing happened to the breather after the impact. You can continue moving on your own. Only to a service station.
In such a situation, often the repair consists of simply replacing the breather. This is not so easy to do, but it is still easier compared to overhauling the engine.
The dent on the block is insignificant, there are no signs of breakdown
With such impacts, the breather breaks off extremely rarely. But the gap between it and the pallet may decrease. Because of this, the performance characteristics of the car are reduced, and the car may not withstand heavy loads.
What could cause such a nuisance? Oil hunger. For the engine, this is no better than a broken breather, and maybe even worse. You will not be able to get the necessary information from the ECU, since the control system for the systems on the “tens” is quite primitive. It is far from a fact that the corresponding error code will appear on the on-board computer.
It’s good if the oil pressure warning light on the dashboard does not light up. In this case, continue driving on your own and head to the nearest service station. You will need to remove the pan, level it, or replace it completely. At the same time, be sure to check the current condition of the breather.
Carter struck
If the standard mudguard has a hole, oil flows out of the sump and forms a whole puddle of lubricating fluid under the car, this is bad.
IMPORTANT! Under no circumstances should you attempt to start the engine if you find a puddle of oil under the crankcase.
If you are in motion and see traces of oil following you, stop as quickly as possible and turn off the engine. Call a towing service.
Possible malfunctions during a crankcase impact
1. A significant dent on the oil pan, but without a visible breakdown.
Don't be complacent if you can't see any oil leaks.
It is very likely that the oil breather (also known as the oil receiver) broke off during a sharp impact.
The breather on a VAZ injector is most often made of aluminum alloy or plastic. The breather has an oil intake tube, which is about 5 cm higher than the sump. Therefore, the place where the breather tube broke off may be above the oil level. First of all, in the event of a sharp impact with a visible dent, the engine must be turned off immediately.
Carter with a significant dent
Checking whether the breather has broken off is carried out as follows:
- Perform a test run of the engine. At the same time, if the oil pressure sensor light on the control panel lights up and does not go out, you can suspect a broken breather;
- Turn off the engine;
- Add oil and start the engine again. If an oil stain appears under the car, it means that the breather has failed, you just need to call a tow truck. If the pressure light in the control unit goes out, there is hope that the breather withstood the blow, you can carefully move under your own power. Preferably, not home, but to a car service center. But it’s still better to use a tow truck. You should be aware that in this case, repairs may be limited to the fact that the breather will be replaced. This is not so easy to do, but it is still better than overhauling the entire engine.
Oil receiver
2. Minor dent, no breakdown observed.
It is unlikely that such a malfunction will cause the breather to break off, but the reduced gap between the breather and the pan will greatly reduce the vehicle's capabilities under high loads.
These malfunctions threaten oil starvation, which always ends sadly for the engine. However, the injection car VAZ 2110 from AvtoVAZ, let's be honest, has a rather primitive control system, and the sensors send little information to the control unit.
New oil pan
It is often not enough to fix the error code. Thus, the injector, being a more progressive system, is inferior here to the old system - a pressure gauge, which shows the increase or decrease in oil pressure as the speed increases or decreases.
However, if the sensor indicator light on the control panel does not light up, you can slowly move to the repair site. Remove the pan, straighten it or replace it, and check the breather at the same time.
3. Crankcase breakdown.
If the mudguard and pan are broken, and there is a puddle of oil under the car, do not even think about starting the engine. The faster you silence it, the less harm you will do to it. Only tow truck and further troubleshooting.

Description
VAZ oil pan protection - 2110 is designed for installation on VAZ cars of the “tenth” family: 2110, 2111, 2112 and their modifications.
In the manufacture of engine carriage pan protection for the VAZ-2110, metal was used, which helps reduce the protection stretch coefficient by 15% compared to analogues. This allows it to withstand more powerful impacts and protect the engine more effectively. It was also possible to reduce the thickness of the VAZ-2110 protection from 2.5 to 2 millimeters, which, in turn, reduced the weight of the part from 11.5 to 9 kilograms.
Titanium protection offered on the domestic spare parts market is lighter, but has a higher stretch coefficient and, accordingly, does not provide the maximum guarantee of maintaining the integrity of the engine and gearbox.
To protect against counterfeiting, the assembly is marked with a yellow label indicating the drawing part number and the manufacturer's address.

VAZ-2110 VAZ-2111 VAZ-2112 (8 valves) VAZ-21102 VAZ-21103 VAZ-21113 VAZ-21114 VAZ-21112 (16 valves)

Which protection to choose
The choice today is quite wide. “Glands” for protection are made from:
- Aluminum alloy. They are lightweight, quite durable, and do not require a special mounting bracket as they usually fit exactly into existing mounts;
Sports aluminum protection - Powder coated steel. Durable, resistant to corrosion. Their main drawback is thin metal;
Novline steel protection - Kamaz produces the thickest protections - from metal 4 mm thick.
Reliable, massive. The main drawback is that they are so heavy that the fastenings are often simply torn out “with meat”. A special bracket is required. Steel protection. Manufacturer Kamaz - N. Chelny
It is better to take steel protection with a metal thickness of at least 2 mm. And definitely - with stamped stiffeners. Also, this part must have special technological holes for draining oil and blowing the engine. The fasteners must exactly match the existing holes on the VAZ 2110.
You can purchase protection either in a regular auto parts store or online with delivery; the price of metal engine protection for a VAZ 2110 is on average 700-1000 rubles.
Installation Rules
Usually, when installing a new protection on an injection VAZ 2110, the factory mudguard is left and the fastening is carried out on top of it, believing that double protection will not harm. However, many people prefer to throw away the mudguard, believing that such a “sandwich” additionally collects dirt and also accumulates ice in winter.
Actually, installing the protection yourself takes no more than half an hour, and is done like this:
- On a pit, overpass or lift, we “apply” the protection to the intended place;
- We screw the front mudguards to the crankcase protection;
- We screw the self-tapping screws to the side member brackets;
- We screw the protection to the mudguards;
- We fasten the five nuts in front to the front bumper.
We select and install engine protection for the VAZ 2110 with our own hands

Removing the mudguard
If you decide to remove the mudguard before installing the “full” crankcase protection on a VAZ injector, doing it yourself is absolutely simple, just:
- It is best to carry out the work on a lift, but it is also possible on an overpass or pit;
- It is attached to the front on the heel of the nuts (self-locking). They are unscrewed with a 10 key;
- The mudguard is attached to the mudguards with 4 self-tapping screws (8 key);
- and at the back - unscrew 2 bolts with a 10mm wrench;
- After unscrewing, all that remains is to remove the mudguard from its engagement with the shields.
Regardless of the protection you choose, you can also install the engine mounting bracket (if you see the need for it). This will make driving more comfortable.

"Sheriff" comes to the rescue
In our case, “Sheriff” is not an American police officer, but the name of a company engaged in the production of relatively inexpensive and high-quality protection. The first protective “chain mail” Sheriff for engine crankcases of various models appeared back in the 90s of the last century.
Today, the company’s catalog includes about 1,600 crankcase protection options made from various materials. Similar products from other manufacturers are inferior, first of all, in the combination of price and quality. Although there are some very interesting options. For example, protection made of titanium or composite materials.
The VAZ 2110 is traditionally equipped with Sheriff products made of 2 mm steel. As practice shows, this is quite enough to ensure effective protection of the car crankcase. It promotes:
- insulating the engine compartment from dust, dirt, water;
- noise insulation;
- protecting the pallet from mechanical damage;
- ventilation of the crankcase and the entire engine compartment.
At the same time, the Sheriff protection is quickly and reliably fixed in the standard holes of the car using reliable fasteners.
In order to remove and install Sheriff, you will need a minimum of tools and about 10-15 minutes of time. Therefore, if you don’t want to go to a service station, then you can handle it on your own.
