Problems with the gearbox began last summer, the 2nd speed was difficult to engage, in the spring the gear selector rod seal leaked, then the 3rd speed finally began to crunch when turned on. But the real juice was when you urgently need to go somewhere, and the reverse speed is not ALE!, and when you can go slowly, then with the reverse - everything is fine! Since I do the repairs myself, I decided to do everything myself this time (in the sense of not contacting service stations and other garage technicians), it’s not all that difficult))) We remove and disassemble the box (there are plenty of video instructions on the Internet)
If you take it apart, you need to change all the consumables at once, so you don’t have to go through it again later. We press out all the bearings and seals from the gearbox housings, remove the satellites, disassemble the secondary shaft, in short, throw everything into the trash. We carry out troubleshooting and find the reasons why our gearbox did not want to work properly. We take old spare parts with us as an example, because VAZs also had parts of different sizes. Don’t forget to take a friend with you and let’s go with him for new parts. We buy everything we need and don’t need, spend all the money we had in our pocket, borrow money from a friend and spend it too. Satisfied, we go to the garage.

Box VAZ 2114: device, diagram, repair
VAZ 2114/2115 is distinguished by normal service, equipped with a reliable engine and gearbox. The box for VAZ 2114 / 2115 provides the best performance for your device. In other words, the unique VAZ 2115 box is actually twice the amount of money used.
Design features of the gearbox
VAZ 2114 (restyling of VAZ 2109) operates on the Russian car market, which is equipped with a manual transmission. The peculiarity of this device is that it copes well with the loads that fall there.
Sometimes the box on a VAZ 2114 needs to be serviced. The gearbox on a VAZ includes the following main elements:
- settling tank;
- Back cover;
- gears/gears;
- differential;
- shafts;
- transmission
Manual transmission is divided into the following types:
- 4-speed;
- 5 speeds;
- 6 speeds.
Each of these types of boxes have different supports; drain plugs are installed in different compartments.
Selection of gearbox oil
The oil level should be monitored from time to time; It is recommended to top up as needed. When the car reaches 60,000 kilometers, a complete oil change will be required.
It should be noted that early wear of mechanical components on the VAZ 2114 is caused by a harsh drive or a sharp change in the gear shift lever.
The gearbox for this version of the car works perfectly with GL-4 mineral oil. This helps extend the life of the box. Required parameters: 75W90, 80w85, 85w90. Always choose lubricants for the gearbox; you must take into account the criteria by which the car will be used, and pay attention to the viscosity of the transmission oil.
Needs repair work
The VAZ 2114 gearbox is subject to repair. Typically this procedure involves installing new gears and bearings. Repairing the VAZ 2114 gearbox is advisable if the following manifestations begin to be observed:
- tightness when operating manually gearbox
; - knocking noise when changing gears or in a certain gear;
- if the synchronizer fails, the corresponding crisis may fall;
- if lubricants have lost their characteristics, an increase in hum (often neutral) is observed.

Thus, in order to increase the capacity of the box installed on a VAZ, the owner of the vehicle must undergo timely maintenance and change the oil. It is recommended to give preference to synthetic oils. If you want to disassemble the gearbox, there is an option without assistance, following our customer's instructions.

Gear shift and lever position
Manual box
The position of the gear shift lever is shown on the handle. Lift the ring under the handlebar handle before engaging reverse gear.
When changing gears, fully depress the clutch pedal, then release it slowly. It is not recommended to drive the car with one hand on the gearshift lever; this increases wear on the gearbox.
READ What is the Engine Capacity of the VAZ 2107
When shifting from fifth to fourth gear, do not push the lever sideways, so engage second gear, which causes the engine to overspeed and damage it.
Before engaging reverse gear, make sure the vehicle is at rest and your foot is not on the gas pedal. Move the lever from neutral to the right until it bends, then lock the rear
move.
The table below shows the speeds at which the next gear should be engaged for maximum fuel economy.
Transmission. Automatic transmission
At the center of the switch lever is an illuminated dial that shows the position markings of the selection ranges.
P ?? Parking R?? rear
move N?? Neutral position
Forward gears:
D?? First. 4th gear 3?? First. 3rd gear 2?? First. 2nd gear 1?? only 1st broadcast
You cannot set the P, R or N position while driving. Resetting the movement position leads to tragedy or damage to the box.
Select lever positions
Depressing the accelerator pedal while the selector lever is moved causes excessive wear on the transmission.
Always keep your foot on the brake pedal to establish the driving position. Keep your hand firmly on the shift lever as this will cause wear to the box.
Gearbox lever
Between the steering gear and acceleration you need to shift for a very short time to change gears.
D ›3 N› RR ›PP› R 3 ›2
This position can only be set when the vehicle is stationary. The lever and junction box are blocked. And perhaps the engine was started.
You prefer this position only when the car is stationary. Press the button on the lever handle.
Before you start, wait a moment to enable it to broadcast
reverse gear.

In this case, the engine position is disconnected from the box. And perhaps the engine was started. Use the handbrake to prevent the vehicle from rolling downhill. To avoid overheating of the engine and gearbox, it is necessary to set N positions for long vehicle stops (for example, in traffic jams). Waiting at a traffic light, position D.
This position is used for everyday driving. The car enters first gear, after which the gears automatically shift between 2nd, 3rd and 4th gears. The switching moment depends on the position of the gas pedal and the speed of movement.
Solving this problem, 4th gear is locked. The car lingers in first gear and then automatically shifts between 2nd and 3rd gears. Position 3 is recommended when driving on zigzag roads and in heavy city traffic. When the lever is moved from position D to position 3, the transmission immediately shifts into 3rd gear, causing a strong engine braking effect. This does not have to be done at speeds above 130 km/h.
This position is recommended when driving on mountain roads. With all this power, the engine is better used and the engine braking effect is increased. The transmission automatically shifts between first and second gears. 3rd and 4th gears are locked.
Moving the lever from position D or from position 3 to position 2.7, switching from third to second gear occurs in advance only at a speed below the set speed, in order to avoid increasing the engine speed to unacceptable values.
This position is recommended when ascending steep slopes and descending from the mine. On the plus side, the engine is effectively braked and constant gear changes are eliminated, which leads to overheating of the water in the gearbox.

Typical breakdowns
General form
Based on some signs, it can be determined that certain gearbox components on a VAZ 2114 need to be repaired.
- When a certain gear is engaged, it does not lock properly and crashes. This indicates that the fastenings of the gear teeth and clutch are worn out. When reverse gear is difficult to engage on a VAZ 2114, you will have to take certain measures. Repair consists of replacing the damaged element. If the gear engages spontaneously, the reason may also lie in wear, delamination and cracking on the rubber element of the rear support. Just replace it.
- To engage the gear you have to apply more force than usual. If the reverse gear on a VAZ 2114 car does not engage, the problem is most likely hidden in loose or worn teeth attaching to the hinge. This may also occur due to deformation of the torque rod or the appearance of cracks in the plastic part of the gearbox drive.
- There is noise in neutral gear. The oil level may be too low or its original viscosity may have been lost. Plus, a similar symptom is characteristic of wear on the upper bearing of the input shaft. Check this element, inspect the oil level and quality.
- It is not uncommon for reverse gear to engage with a crunch on a VAZ 2114. The problem here is the wear of the synchronizer. If the problem is not corrected at the first sign of its occurrence, this may result in the need to replace the entire gear assembly and synchronizer.
- Noise is generated while the car is moving in certain gears. A similar malfunction occurs due to a damaged lower or upper bearing. Along with the noise, the lever may jam. The only option is to carry out a full diagnosis of the gearbox.
- A knocking noise occurs in a certain gear with or without load. The problem lies in the drive gear, which will have to be replaced.
- When the transmission is engaged, a cracking sound is heard. This indicates wear of the synchronizer blocking ring or the need to replace the satellite axle. The box will have to be sorted out to fix the damage.
- Oil leaks from the box. The reasons can be very diverse, so you will have to carefully diagnose the checkpoint.
Extending the service life of gearboxes
Transmission shaft assemblies
There are only two recommendations.
- Always try to monitor the oil level in the gearbox. If it drops, be sure to top it up immediately, do not delay the procedure until later. When the oil becomes unusable, change it completely, rather than fill in the missing amount.
- Avoid aggressive use, do not jerk the gears sharply, accelerate smoothly, and brake similarly. A simple caring attitude towards the gearbox will allow you to avoid wear and tear and numerous breakdowns.
As you can see, solving problems with checkpoints is not so easy. Therefore, the best option is to prevent their occurrence.
As you already understand, we will talk specifically about a manual “box” and about shifting gears (or rather, not shifting) on it. I have quite a lot of experience in this area; I personally repaired cars such as VAZ 2114, VAZ 2110 (and the 10th family in general). To say that there are global differences between foreign cars, there really aren’t any! So if your speed is not cut off, then the reasons may be similar. In general, the article will be useful, at the end, as usual, there is a video...
THE CONTENT OF THE ARTICLE
A fairly large number of such questions come to me, especially from novice drivers of our VAZs! Especially with front-wheel drive, because in rear-wheel drive cars the lever was installed in the manual transmission itself. I want to answer everyone right away - the problem of non-inclusion may not always be cardinal! Often it’s a small matter, something just got loose or unscrewed from time to time, as a rule, this happens in 50% of cases.
Therefore, I will try to break the material into two large components - simple and complex faults.
I suggest starting with simple faults.
