GRANT'S LADA.LADA GRANTA.THE GENERATOR HUMS.SOLVE PROBLEMS.
if almost immediately after buying LADA Granta you found problems with the generator (hum, noise or howl), it is likely the cause of its bearing. This is already a known disease Lada Granta, AVTOVAZ therefore change the alternator under warranty. Let's see what is the reason for the rapid failure of the generator and how to deal with it.
According to numerous reviews of Lada Grant car owners, it turned out that the tension of the generator belt on their cars does not correspond to the norm, that is, the generator belt is overstretched. By the way, the norm when pressed with a force of 100N (10kgs) belt deflection should be 8-12mm. Who at least a little versed in machines knows that adjusting the belt tension is an important point, it is from this operation will depend on the life of both the belt and the generator.
Thus, the problem generator Grant in is, that have cars Lada Grant with 8mi valve engines VAZ-11183, VAZ-21116 and VAZ-11186 not envisaged tension belt generator. But you can solve this problem, and in different ways:
Replace KATEK generator with Bosch
Since July 24, all Grant cars have been equipped with new Bosch generators (2170-3701010-13 (F000 BL0 652)) with a capacity of 110A. this generator has an increased current output compared to the generator 2170-3701010-10, especially at idle (55-60A at 800 rpm./min of the crankshaft). Its other advantage is increased reliability.

To replace the bearing of the generator
In order not to resort to replacing the generator Assembly, you can only change the bearing, but in this case, you should remember the warranty of the showroom, which can be lost.
Replace the generator bolt with a smaller diameter bolt
The meaning of the revision is simple: Unscrew the upper bolt of the generator and install a thinner one in its place. This will slightly reduce the tension of the belt, and in order not to lose the warranty, before going to the salon, return everything to its place.
Replacing the bracket generator Lada Grant, on bracket Viburnum
Lada Kalina bracket has a tension roller in its composition, which allows to stretch the generator belt, thereby affecting the service life of the belt and the bearing of the generator Grants.
The grant has a bracket with the number 2190 without holes for the tensioner and tensioner roller, so it must be unscrewed and installed instead:
Bracket 1118-1041034 Frets Viburnum.
Tensioner roller.
Tensioner bracket
Sleeves.
Belt from 1118.
The cost of issue 1700r.
Remove the generator Grants, dismantle the old bracket. Install the Kalina bracket (its mounts are similar), and then the generator itself.

We make a tension of a belt of the generator according to the norm described above.
Such a revision of the generator bracket, we lose the warranty, but recently they say that together with the replacement of the generator under warranty, they also put a tensioner.
