One of the reasons for a vehicle to pull or skid to the side when braking is a malfunction of the brake pressure regulator (also called the “sorcerer”). The most common causes of pressure regulator malfunction are brake fluid leakage, air in the brake system, damage to the rubber seal, damage to the rubber hose. In some cases, pumping air from the brake system, replacing the seal or hose will help, however, in most cases the problem can only be solved by replacement.
You can replace the sorcerer in the car yourself; for this you need a household set of tools - a wrench and pliers. The brake system of the Zhiguli is one of the most primitive in the world, and even if the driver has never done this before, then if you follow the instructions, he will have a minimum of problems during replacement (if any).
How to replace the brake pressure regulator in a VAZ 2110?
1. The first thing to do is to release the regulator drive lever; to do this, lift the bracket up. If necessary, use a screwdriver to loosen the earring bracket. All manipulations are performed with a key of 10.
2. After disconnecting the lever, carefully remove the earring bracket.
4. Unscrew the front bolt securing the bracket with the regulator.
5. We unscrew the rear bolt, which we hold the regulator on the side of the bracket, after which we remove the regulator (sorcerer), without unscrewing the drive.
6. If you need to replace drive parts, unscrew the bolt that holds the locking lever and disconnect the drive lever from the elastic lever.
7. When you connect the drive lever to the elastic lever, following the sequence, the clamp fork should fit into the groove on the elastic lever.
8. Next, install the brake pressure regulator in the same order as it was removed. Please note that the front mounting bolt is slightly longer than the rear one.
9. When replacing, it may be that the lever spring begins to protrude, thereby interfering with the installation of the regulator. To avoid problems, move the drive lever as far forward as possible beyond the protrusion.
10. Installation is complete, now crimp the earring brackets with pliers. To make sure that the system is working, pump and adjust the pressure.

Yes, that’s right, the article is specifically about replacing and adjusting the sorcerer (as this part is popularly called) or the rear brake pressure regulator (according to science) on VAZ-2108, VAZ-2109, VAZ-21099, VAZ-2110, VAZ-2115 cars , VAZ-1118 Kalina, VAZ-2170 Priora . This time, we won’t throw anything away, simplify or improve anything. Since after the article on “modernizing” the brake system of the Classic, by removing the rear brake pressure regulator, I received a decent amount of criticism in my address. They say you can’t do this, the rear brake pressure regulator must be on the car, otherwise during emergency braking you may experience an uncontrolled skid of the rear axle. And this is fraught with serious consequences... And despite the fact that I conducted an experiment on my kopeck and after it, on several cars of the VAZ 2101-2107 family and did not notice any problems with skidding when braking, I did not dare to experiment with “tuning” the brake systems of Samar, Kalin and Prior .
In principle, I can even explain why. Unlike the classics, replacing and adjusting the notorious rear brake pressure regulator in Samara is a breeze. I can say for sure that installing a tee from Classic instead of a sorcerer will take you much more time and effort than replacing and adjusting it. Plus, one tube will be superfluous and you will have to install a plug on the main brake. But the effectiveness of the brakes and the car’s controllability during emergency braking remains a big question mark! Why do you need this? Also, it is worth remembering that in this case, we are talking about faster, more dynamic, front-wheel drive cars... After reading the article, I think that you will agree with me that it is easier to leave everything in its place and carry out a simple setup of this unit, than to compete with the AvtoVAZ design bureau, “simplify and improve” the brake system, and thereby look for...adventures) )).
Reasons why you should change or adjust the sorcerer (rear brake pressure regulator) on VAZ-2108, VAZ-2109, VAZ-21099, VAZ-2110, VAZ-2115, VAZ-1118 Kalina, VAZ-2170 Priora . There are two main reasons for replacing this part. The first reason is wear of the cuffs and, as a result, leakage of brake fluid. The second, the sorcerer’s piston turned sour, rusted, and generally froze in one place. In the first case, everything is simple, the brake fluid leak is easy to see. But in the second, you will have to find an assistant who will press the brake pedal, and at this time you watch the pressure regulator rod (1), it should extend from the regulator body and press the spring plate (2) to the drive lever (3) . Let's look at photo 1. If everything happens like this, then the sorcerer is working, all that remains is to check whether it is adjusted correctly. If not, the rod does not move, then the rear brake pressure regulator should be replaced. And for regulation. The adjustment and condition of the sorcerer should be checked at every technical inspection, after replacing the rear struts or springs, after any work on the rear beam and, of course, after replacing the sorcerer itself. A working pressure regulator should look something like this (photo 2), there are no signs of fluid leakage, the rod is movable, the gap between the plate and the drive lever is 2 mm. If you see a picture like in photo 3, then such a sorcerer should be checked and adjusted. The same should be done if the distance between the plate and the lever is more than 2 mm. Also, some craftsmen put nuts or metal plates between them, throw them away and check the serviceability of the sorcerer. How to properly adjust the sorcerer (rear brake pressure regulator) on VAZ-2108, VAZ-2109, VAZ-21099, VAZ-2110, VAZ-2115, VAZ-1118 Kalina, VAZ-2170 Priora, read a little below.
Let's start with the selection of spare parts. I recommend installing a sorcerer (rear brake pressure regulator) manufactured by VIS. There is no better option. All other options are your personal choice. The only thing is that I would not advise you to contact the sorcerer produced by Fenox; I had an unpleasant experience. But this is my personal opinion, maybe I was unlucky (several times
