Modernization of the dashboard of the Lada Granta car

For the high-quality functioning of all vehicle systems, it is necessary to ensure correct and reliable control over a number of basic parameters. This is the instrument panel on the Lada Grant. It clearly and timely informs the driver about the operating status of all components of the machine, the speed of movement, and the equipment currently turned on.

When buying a car, maximum attention is paid to this detail of the car’s interior. Proper placement of all elements indicates that all the needs and position of the driver have been taken into account.

Interior of Lada Granta in the “Lux” version

Lada Granta will be produced in three body types: sedan, station wagon and hatchback. Moreover, Grant’s sedan will “kill” a similar body from Kalina, since the client gets more cars for less money. A test assembly is currently underway, but the estimated capacity is 150 thousand copies per year.

In addition to the price, the two budget phones have quite significant differences in their details. Despite the fact that Granta is built on the basis of Kalina, approximately 400 components were developed specifically for the new product. Granta has its own trunk, hood, front and rear fenders, bumpers and optics, and the doors and roof are Kalinov’s. Despite the increased overhangs, geometric cross-country ability was not affected.

Lada Granta

The torpedo on the Lada Granta is original, but uses some parts from Kalina - for example, such as the “knobs” for adjusting the heating system. To reduce the “crickets” and reduce the cost, the developers took the path of reducing the parts (from 59 to 39 pieces) of the “torpedo”, making it more monolithic. The seats, steering wheel, gear lever and door panels are also original. In the car's chassis, the main change concerns the rear suspension, which will later appear on Kalina. For the first time, VAZ conveyor cars received not parallel, but “negative camber” of the rear wheels.

A lightweight connecting rod and piston group was installed in the 90-horsepower engine, due to which it was possible to reduce noise and vibration load and increase the service life of the engine. Efficiency indicators remained approximately within the same limits: approximately 7.0–7.5 liters per “hundred”, depending on the body type.

Tolyatti residents have finally decided on the supplier of the automatic transmission - it will be the Japanese company Jatco, a distant partner in the Renault-Nissan-AvtoVAZ alliance. But the two-pedal Granta will not see the light until mid-2012, because the process of fine-tuning the 4-speed Japanese “automatic” for our model has not yet been completed. Mechanical boxes with cable drive are currently considered only as promising components.

low fuel consumption

low noise and vibration levels

In addition to this engine, LADA Granta will be produced with 8-valve (80 hp) and 16-valve (98 hp) 1.6-liter engines, which are currently used on LADA Kalina.

LADA Granta: PRODUCTION. WHERE and HOW MUCH - the project provides for the annual production of 150 thousand LADA Granta:

AVTOVAZ is modernizing technology when developing the LADA Granta: about 50 new pieces of equipment are being introduced and about 40 more are undergoing fundamental changes.

Welding of LADA Granta will be carried out on automatic lines, where the bodies of the LADA Kalina sedan were welded before

Painting and assembly of LADA Granta will be carried out at the existing LADA Kalina production facility.

One of the popular types of tuning is interior tuning. And it is here that we offer you a large selection of all kinds of small and large spare parts and parts for a variety of purposes, ranging from replacing a broken spare part to a real cool change in the entire appearance of the interior. So let’s talk about all sorts of “pumping up the interior” of the Lada Grant and its modifications.

This type of car modernization is one of the most enjoyable, since you can replace the old and add a new one, in which you are surrounded by space while driving. In other words, while driving you will feel the innovations you are purchasing, which ultimately will allow you to truly choose “your plate” due to a wide range of replaceable elements, their style, color, shape and design.

Choosing the right radio size

We carry out installation either independently or by contacting specialists at the service center. In the second case, the service is paid.

By default, all VAZ and Lada models are equipped with a 1-DIN radio. The opening dimensions correspond to: 180 x 50 mm. This is an old standardization that has been in force since the times of the USSR. Modern audio modules can be purchased complete with a pre-installed LCD display. The size of the opening must comply with the standard: 180 x 100 mm, that is, doubled in height. Size marking: 2-DIN.

To install the radio in the Granta liftback, cut out the top pocket, remove the plastic, and install the assembled module. For a beginner, the process will seem somewhat complicated, so strictly follow the instructions.

Where to start tuning Lada Granta

As a rule, tuning the interior of a Lada Granta begins with major changes regarding the door trim or the instrument panel (dashboard) as a whole, as well as the seats. But why do we need rules when we are doing exactly what we need at the moment, especially if there is no time for global alterations. Therefore, we recommend that you pay attention, first of all, to small details, which at the same time are very noticeable. We are talking about replacing the gearshift knob and handbrake, steering wheel, center console, floor tunnel and other inserts, such as air duct nozzles, gearbox frames for Lada Grant, etc. Replacing all of the above parts takes a minimum of time and effort, but you will feel the effect immediately, for example, changing gears with brand new, upholstered genuine leather with red stitching. And this is not only due to the fact that the handle looks chic, but even because the leather does not slip in a sweaty hand (and avid racing enthusiasts know exactly how you sweat in a race). Another example is when the replaced air duct nozzles with a silver ring suddenly began to match the tone of the console frame, which already gives the appearance of a finished interior, with correctly selected colors. And there are many such examples.

You can, of course, endlessly praise and attach standard spare parts to the 10th hedgehogs and bolts. But a huge part of car enthusiasts love to pump up the inner world of their “swallow”. And in my life, more than once I have experienced the feeling when you get into a domestic car, and in the cabin you get the feeling that you missed the car. And it’s nice when a car greets you with more comfort than you expect. Thus, exceeding your expectations.

  • I want to install a sports steering wheel with an anatomical grip, sports seats and pedal pads. When I'm driving, I feel like a pilot. I want the inside of my car to feel like a pilot's cockpit. Torpedo, console, indicators, pedal pads, and even a switch key. Standard equipment is not my thing at all.
  • I have already driven through many cities in my swallow. I made a new interior for myself, installed new upholstery, new covers, visors, an armrest and all the little things. She used to greet me in the winter with a cold chair, so she installed heating for herself. I like it, I won't sell it. I made it for myself.

You can start changes with large details, as mentioned above, then tuning will take a lot of time and effort, but global alterations entail great joy, because whole large pieces of the interior are changing, which are impossible not to notice. You can do all this yourself or contact a special center, but the essence remains the same - this must be done on domestic cars, because this is precisely why they are valuable, that there is always a choice: to remain stock or to make a masterpiece for yourself, which it would be a pity to sell.

It turns out that interior tuning is an individual thing, and to meet needs, the consumer needs a choice. From adjustment knobs to anatomical seats. Our online store has everything you need for a person who has decided to upgrade and upgrade their car.

Possible faults

If everything is clear with the description, then let’s move on to the malfunctions. Like any other electronic component, the Lada Granta instrument panel is also susceptible to various malfunctions.

What kind of breakdowns can occur in the operation of the control panel:

  1. The tidy is broken. If the shield fails, there can be quite a lot of symptoms. For example, only some or all of the devices will refuse to work. If this is the case, then the problem in this case may lie either in the power supply of the device or in its board. It is better to entrust repair problems to specialists.
  2. The tidy is glitchy. For example, all doors are closed and the unlocked door indicator is on, or the optics are not turned on, but the corresponding light on the dashboard is flashing. As a rule, in this case the problem lies precisely in the board (of course, if the sensors are working). If the problem is in the board, then flashing the dashboard firmware can solve it, but this option does not always help. It is possible that the electrical equipment lights are on on the dashboard due to a faulty sensor, so it would be a good idea to check its functionality.
  3. All devices work, but there is no backlight. If all the backlight bulbs do not work at once, then most likely the problem lies in a blown fuse or a damaged wire or connector. Checking the wiring is done using a multimeter.
  4. Only part of the light bulbs or one of them does not work. In this case, the malfunction consists of a burnt-out lamp; to eliminate it, the instrument panel in the Lada Granta is dismantled, after which the burnt-out lamps in it are replaced.
  5. The equipment indicator on the dashboard does not turn on. For example, you turn on the high beams, but the corresponding light does not light up. This may be due either to a failure of the indicator itself (the lamp is changed in the same way), or to a breakdown of the sensor. It is quite possible that there is poor contact between the light bulb and the wiring.
  6. Speedometer failure. The cause of the malfunction may lie in the board or speed sensor installed on the device. The situation is similar with sensors - fuel level, engine temperature. If they do not work or show incorrect values, then the problem should be looked for in the controllers themselves, wiring or board. It is possible that the devices are not working simply due to poor contact.
