Removing the gear shift mechanism drive may be necessary when replacing faulty parts (for example, to replace a torn drive rod boot, damaged drive rod). The sequence and number of operations indicated below can be changed depending on the purpose of the work.
To complete the work, you will need an assistant, as well as an inspection ditch or overpass.
Removal and disassembly
1. We prepare the car for work.
2. Clean the threads of the clamp bolt with a wire brush. We treat the junction of the rod with the hinge and the bolt with penetrating lubricant.
3. 13 mm wrench , loosen the tightening of the clamp bolt nut.
4. Unclench the clamp with a screwdriver and move it along the rod. Unclench the rod with a screwdriver.
5. After wiping the junction of the rod with the hinge with a rag, we mark the relative position of the drive rod and the hinge.
6. Disconnect the rod from the hinge.
7. Disconnect the torque rod from the base of the ball joint of the gear shift lever.
8. Inside the car, use a thin slotted screwdriver to remove the plug from the gear shift lever handle.
9. 13 mm socket wrench , unscrew the nut securing the handle bolt and remove the handle from the gear shift lever.
10. Using a screwdriver, we remove the cover from the floor tunnel lining and turn the cover inside out.
11. Disconnect the wiring harness from the reverse lock solenoid switch.
Loosen or cut the plastic clamp.
12. Remove the switch from the gear shift lever.
13. Remove the floor tunnel lining.
If necessary, you can unscrew the four bolts securing the gearshift lever support to the body (see below) and remove the drive assembly.
14. 13 mm wrench , unscrew the nut of the bolt securing the linkage to the lever, holding the bolt from turning with a second wrench of the same size.
15. Remove the bolt from the lever. We remove the lever from the traction fork. We remove the metal and plastic washers, take out the metal spacer sleeve.
16. To compress the drive rod, lubricate it with soapy water and remove it from the hole in the cover.
17. 13 mm socket , unscrew the three bolts securing the bracket to the body.
We unscrew the fourth bolt securing the bracket with a spanner of the same size (access to it from above is blocked by the air duct).
18. Remove the bracket and drive rod cover. We replace the torn cover.
19. We remove the gear shift lever support from the hole in the floor tunnel.
20. Use a puller to compress the locking ring of the ball joint of the lever and remove it from the base of the support.
21. Remove the lever from the base of the support.
22. Using a screwdriver, remove the top sealing ring.
23. Remove the support from the lever.
Assembly and installation
We assemble and install the drive in the reverse order. Before tightening the gearshift mechanism drive rod clamp, adjust the drive (see below).
Adjustment
1. We loosen the tightening of the drive rod clamp of the gear shift mechanism (see paragraphs 2-4 above).
2. We lift the lower part of the gear shift lever cover (see point 10 above).
3. We move the gear shift lever so that its lower part is perpendicular to the floor surface, and the lever handle is located from the right seat cushion at a distance approximately equal to 1/3 of the distance between the front seats and hold it in this position. In this case, the assistant, moving the clamp 2-3 mm from the end of the rod, tightens the clamp nut.
4. We install the cover in place and, by trying to engage the gears, make sure that the gear shift mechanism drive is working.
Adjusting the rocker on a Lada Kalina car
The backstage adjustment on the Lada Kalina must be done every time any work has been done on the gearbox. It also happens that the rocker clamp is not tightly clamped to the rod, or the nut becomes loose, which leads to displacement of the rocker and poor gear shifting. You can do all this yourself, armed with a wrench.
In order to get to the clamp on the rod, you need to drive onto an inspection hole or overpass. After this, fully open the clamp (it is located behind the cardan drive on the gearbox side) and place the gear shift lever in reverse or first gear until it stops. It is best if you have an assistant who will hold the lever in the cabin.
When the lever is fixed, tighten the clamp. If there are any issues with the tightening of the nut or the integrity of the clamp, it is better to replace them. When the clamp is tightened, you need to check how the gears shift.
If you still have issues with switching, you need to try to start from the opposite. That is, if you adjusted the rocker when reverse gear was engaged, try adjusting it in first gear and vice versa. If this does not help, you need to check the fastening of the link to the lever and the ball joint of the lever.
Perhaps the lever is simply “loose” - this will be felt by a slight play. When the lever is securely fixed, the appearance of play may mean that the ball joint is worn out or its fastening is displaced. In such cases, it is better to replace it.

VAZ 2114 rocker repair - How to adjust the rocker on a VAZ 2114, varieties, repair
In order for the vibration of the VAZ 2114 gearbox handle to cease to exist, you need to have a couple of tools in reserve:
- Socket wrenches 13 and 10
- New drawstring cover
- Overpass or pit in the garage
- A smart friend who will help you tune the stick
- You can stock up on thread locker, but you can do without it (this thing is attached to the side of the box itself).
It will take a little time, about half an hour to eliminate troubles and the same amount to adjust.
First way
Progress of the adjustment process:
- Sketch, remember, remove or measure, but make sure that after installation everything is in its place: namely, at a certain distance from the passenger and the console.
- Now you can crawl under the car and begin to unscrew the fasteners for inserting the bushing into the lever tube (also called the rocker) using a 13-socket, and remove the lever.
- Then, remove the cover from the cross. Be prepared for oil to pour out. You can put the container in advance if you really feel sorry for him. Then pour it back. Well, unscrew its fasteners to remove it.
Drawstring without cover for VAZ 2114
- That's it, now we need to install a new clamp - this is the bolt that secures the cross. You can, of course, clean and tighten the old one, but it is not so expensive that you need to save on it. And new things always inspire greater confidence in the future.
We will put the actions in the opposite direction with some deviations:
- After putting the stick in place, inserting the bolt and tightening it, putting the cover in place, you need to engage 4th gear. This will drive the bushing into place - into the rocker (lever).
- Then, put it in neutral. This is where a friend comes in handy: he places it, and you tighten the fasteners. At this moment, you can adjust the position of the stick, move it in the desired direction under you.
- Well, then try the result. If you are not satisfied with how the gear knob is positioned on the VAZ 2114, you need to bring the adjustment to fruition.
Second way
The second reason for the rattling is the bushing, which is located on the lever itself. In order to get rid of this nasty sound you just need:
- Open-end or socket wrench 13
- New bushing
- And a little patience
The process itself will also take no more than half an hour. The work itself will have to be carried out in the interior of your car. The action plan is:
- To get to the bushing, you need to remove the skin from the gear knob.
- Using the wrench you have, unscrew the nut and pull out the bolt.
Unscrew the nut on the VAZ 2114 gearbox lever

Gearbox lever bushing components for VAZ 2114
- We assemble in reverse order.
In fact, as a result of this procedure (how to eliminate the rattling of the VAZ 2114 gearbox lever) you should get the following effect:
- The stick will stop vibrating at idle
- When revving up, the lever will not make those wild metallic sounds.
- May vibrate a little, but not enough to irritate the driver
- The gear selector itself will move through the gears more clearly (the result of a properly tightened bolt)
Reasons for replacement
There are several situations when the owner of a VAZ 2109 has or wants to get into the design of the gearbox and specifically work with the rocker:
- Oil is leaking due to a damaged rocker seal. It must be replaced;
- The old drawstring was out of order;
- I would like to exchange the long-stroke for a short-stroke in view of its advantages.
Now to the question of when replacing or repairing the backstage is a necessary measure.
- The backlash of the gearbox selector has increased significantly.
- Gears change with difficulty, and when changing speed, extraneous sounds appear.
- It is possible to change gears, but with a lot of effort.
- Speeds change incorrectly. Instead of one, a completely different one turns on.
- It is impossible to turn on all or part of the gears at all.
Even if the resulting play is still insignificant, it is advisable to immediately begin repairs or completely change the drawstring.
Replacing the oil seal
If you find that the oil in the gearbox is gradually disappearing, you can suspect the rocker seal. There is nothing else left to do but change the element.
- First, buy a new shift rod seal. It costs about 70-100 rubles.
- Drain the oil from the box, having prepared a clean container in advance. This is in case you refill the same oil. Although this is an excellent reason for you to change the transmission lubricant at the same time.
- To make sure the oil flows out better, first unscrew the filler plug or remove the speedometer gear. After draining the oil, screw the cap back on.
- We climb under the car and disconnect the fasteners of the gearbox lever driveshaft.
- Pull the boot off the cardan, unscrew the bolts securing it to the gearshift rod. Problematic fasteners that you will have to tinker with.
- After removing the cardan shaft, remove the rod boot.
- We remove the damaged oil seal using an awl or suitable available tools. The main thing here is the stock itself.
- We install a new one in place of the old oil seal and press it with a tube of the appropriate diameter.
- Put the boot back in place and rotate the driveshaft.
- Please note that the bolt securing the cardan to the rod is an adjustment bolt. Therefore, screw it in exactly the same way as before dismantling. Otherwise, some speeds may not turn on.
Gearbox slide: what it is, signs of wear, how to adjust it yourself
Not all motorists have any idea what the name of this or that part in their car is. In this case, we are talking not only about the mechanisms “hidden” in the engine, but also about the devices with which they interact literally every day. One of these parts is the gearbox linkage.
Please note: The name "slide" is not official for this mechanism, but it is generally accepted. In fact, this part is called the transmission control rod.
1. What is a gearbox rocker 2. Signs of gearbox rocker wear 3. Adjusting the gearbox rocker
What is a gearbox rocker?
Many drivers mistakenly believe that the rocker refers to the gear shift lever, but this is not entirely true. If we are talking about a gearbox rocker, we mean a composite mechanism whose task is to connect the gearshift lever and the rod. That is, the driver cannot see the backstage, much less touch it. This element is located between the lever and the gearbox itself, and it is located under the bottom of the car, near the driveshaft, and in some cases under the gearshift lever itself.
As can be understood from the description, the rocker regularly has to deal with serious loads, so this element must have good strength. Despite this, the slide is susceptible to damage. If it does not contain enough lubricating components, drops of water, dust or other “debris” have entered it, there is a high risk of part failure.
Please note: On some cars, the rocker can last 200-300 or even more than thousands of kilometers without replacement. But, if we take the average result, the gearbox usually fails after 100 thousand kilometers of operation.
Signs of gearbox wear
The driver must pay attention to possible failure of vehicle components, including knowing the characteristic signs of wear on the gearbox linkage in order to take timely action to replace it. Despite the fact that the mechanism is quite reliable, you should be aware of the following “symptoms” of its imminent breakdown:
- Increased play at the gearshift knob. This can be noticeable both when the handle is in neutral and in one of the gears;
- Difficulty shifting gears. For example, one or more gears are difficult to “stick”, or maybe a crunching noise occurs when the lever moves in their direction;
- It feels like changing gears has become more difficult, as if the lever has become much heavier;
- Gears are engaged incorrectly, for example, instead of fifth, third is engaged or vice versa.
Drivers often ignore the appearance of play in the gearbox, believing that this is a normal situation. In fact, if backlash occurs, it is imperative to diagnose the gearbox, and, if necessary, adjust or replace the linkage. The fact is that a slight play is already a fairly serious symptom of a faulty gearbox linkage.
If it “breaks” while the car is moving, this can lead to serious consequences for both the car and the driver, since in such a situation there is a high risk of getting into an accident.
That is why, if you notice problems with gear shifting, be sure to contact a service center for diagnosis and repair of the linkage, if necessary.
Adjusting the gearbox rocker
It is not always necessary to completely or partially replace the scenes. Quite often you can limit yourself to simple adjustments. At the same time, it is possible to adjust the link with your own hands, without contacting a service center. There are two ways to adjust:
- In reverse gear. In order to adjust the rocker for reverse gear, you need to loosen the clamp on it, and then move the gearshift lever to the position that corresponds to the ideal engagement of reverse gear. After this, the clamp is tightened, and the work is considered completed;
- On the first transfer. If it is not possible to engage reverse gear, you can adjust the gearbox rocker in first gear. To do this, engage first gear, and then loosen the rocker clamp. Next, rotate the rocker drive counterclockwise until the gearshift lever stops in the plastic reverse speed lock, and then tighten the clamp.
It is worth noting that the general processes for adjusting the gearbox linkage are described above. It is important to say that the process may differ depending on the car, so before starting work it is recommended that you read the instructions specifically for your car model.
Stories from our readers
“Fucking basin. "
Hi all! My name is Mikhail, now I’ll tell you a story about how I managed to exchange my two-wheeler for a 2010 Camry. It all started with the fact that I began to be wildly irritated by the breakdowns of the two-wheeler, it seemed like nothing serious was broken, but damn it, there were so many little things that really started to irritate me. This is where the idea arose that it was time to change the car to a foreign car. The choice fell on the melting Camry of the tenth years.
Yes, I had matured morally, but financially I just couldn’t handle it. I’ll say right away that I am against loans and taking a car, especially not a new one, on credit is unreasonable. My salary is 24k a month, so collecting 600-700 thousand is almost impossible for me. I started looking for different ways to make money on the Internet. You can’t imagine how many scams there are, what I haven’t tried: sports betting, network marketing, and even the volcano casino, where I successfully lost about 10 thousand ((The only direction in which it seemed to me that I could make money was currency trading on the stock exchange, they call it Forex. But when I started delving into it, I realized that it was very difficult for me. I continued to dig further and came across binary options. The essence is the same as in Forex, but it’s much easier to understand. I started reading forums, studying trading strategies. I tried it on a demo account, then opened a real account. To be honest, I didn’t manage to start earning money right away, until I understood all the mechanics of options, I lost about 3,000 rubles, but as it turned out, it was a precious experience. Now I earn 5-7 thousand rubles a day. I managed to get the car buy after half a year, but in my opinion this is a good result, and it’s not about the car, my life has changed, I naturally quit my job, I have more free time for myself and my family. You’ll laugh, but I work directly on the phone)) If If you want to change your life like me, then here’s what I advise you to do right now: 1. Register on the site 2. Practice on a Demo account (it’s free). 3. As soon as you get something on the Demo account, top up your REAL ACCOUNT and go to REAL MONEY! I also advise you to download the application to your phone, it’s much more convenient to work from your phone. Download here.
To replace the “ten” cardan you will need a pit, keys for 10 and 13:
- The gearbox control rod joint is hidden under the boot.
- We remove the boot and move it to the gearbox.
- Loosen the clamp bolt to 13, loosen it a little and pull the link off the hinge. Then unscrew the 10mm bolt that secures the hinge on the gear selector rod and remove the hinge.
- We install a new hinge without play on the gear selector rod and secure it with a 10-point bolt. To prevent it from turning away from vibrations, we lubricate it with a thread locker.
Adjusting the Kalina gearbox lever 1 and 2
Lada Kalina cars are equipped with two types of manual gearboxes, which have different types of drive - lever and cable.
Adjustment of the gearshift lever on Kalina is carried out only on models equipped with gearboxes 1118 and 2180 with a rocker drive, and is done on an inspection pit, overpass or lift. The tools you will need are a 13mm wrench and a slotted screwdriver.
Tuning the VAZ 2109 transmission
The classic transmission of all VAZs is manual. It is quite reliable, cheap to maintain and well suited for use on domestic roads.
There are several popular types of tuning for manual transmissions. They appeared as a banal need to improve the performance of the car. The main work packages include:
- Replacing the backstage.
- Conversion from 4-speed to 5-speed.
- Installation of a sports row.
- Modernization of the pedal unit.
- Replacement of the main pair and differential.
Let's take a closer look at one of the tuning options. Replacing the rocker with a short-throw one is a useful tuning that will significantly simplify gear shifting. We all know that the lever of the “nine” and most other VAZ cars is absolutely inconvenient. It has a huge backlash, which simply has a terrible effect on the accuracy of gear shifting. If men with long hands can still cope with it without any critical effort, then women will have a very difficult time with it.
The easiest way out of the situation is to install a short-stroke cardan from the Lada Kalina on the 2109. Such tuning will cost you approximately 1,500 rubles. Along with the cardan, you will have to get a boot from the same model, because it won’t be original with it.
The necessary tools for work are a set of keys, a slotted screwdriver and a hammer. It will also be very good to have an assistant.
At which Kalina gearboxes can adjustments be made?
Lada Kalina cars are equipped with two types of manual gearboxes, which have different types of drive - lever and cable.
Adjusting the Lada Kalina gearbox lever
In the first case, the force of the lever, connected by a hinge to the transmission rod, is applied to the rod of the gearbox gear shift device. This design requires periodic adjustment of the Kalina gearbox linkage due to the gear selection lever moving beyond the range of movement provided by the design during operation. Most often, correction is required for the first generation Kalina gearbox with a mileage of more than 100 thousand km.
Unlike a traditional rocker, a cable shift drive effectively dampens the penetration of vibrations into the vehicle interior. The reduced lever travel in the longitudinal and transverse directions increases comfort when switching. Eliminating rigid traction eliminated the causes of incorrect operation when selecting gears, but problems can be caused by a malfunction and subsequent incorrect adjustment of the clutch on the cable box on the Lada Kalina-2. Insufficient oil level in the box can also be a reason for complaints about the quality of the device.
Adjustment of the gearbox on the Kalina with a cable drive is not required. Two cables with obvious signs of wear on the jackets or the appearance of effort when switching are removed and replaced. Avoiding sharp bends along the route is a necessary condition for trouble-free operation of flexible cables. After replacing the cables, additional adjustment of the clutch of the cable box on the VAZ Kalina-2 will be useful.
REQUIREMENTS AND SUGGESTIONS
Figuring out what and how we could improve, we agreed on one thing: not to touch the gear part, namely the shafts, gears, and synchronizers. Otherwise, huge financial costs will be required to launch a new gearbox into production - without high-precision equipment, it will not be possible to ensure the proper quality of engagement, operation and synchronization.
Main elements of the VAZ-2181 gearbox:
2 - secondary shaft;
4 — fifth gear fork;
6 — reversing light switch;
8 — gear shift mechanism;
How to adjust the shift mechanism
The procedure for adjusting the Lada Kalina gearbox lever is carried out on an inspection hole, overpass or lift, best with an assistant monitoring the process in the cabin. Tools you will need:
- wrench 13 (convenient with a ratchet);
- slotted screwdriver.
Diagram of the Lada Kalina gearbox lever
Having blocked the wheels with rollbacks, the gear selection lever is fixed in the “rear” position. Next, work continues under the bottom of the car:
- use a 13mm wrench to unscrew the nut of the coupling clamp;
- make sure that it moves freely relative to the gearbox drive rod.
Other reasons for the lack of reverse gear on the VAZ-1118
The gearbox may not yet turn on if the link (thrust) is not adjusted, but in this case problems will also arise when trying to turn on some other speed (for example, first or fifth). That is why, whenever removing a manual transmission, it is recommended to put marks on the slide so that during reassembly it can be installed in exactly the same position.
Another reason for the malfunction of the gearbox is an unadjusted or poor clutch, but here, too, other gears either do not engage or shift with a crunch. The travel of the clutch pedal on Kalina is adjusted by decreasing or increasing the length of the cable; when the disc is worn out, the car begins to drive with slipping and does not pick up speed well. One of the main signs of bad ferrodo is the smell of burnt linings, which is especially noticeable when the car picks up speed and operates under increased load. At the same time, the free play of the clutch pedal increases, and it is not always possible to adjust it.
The Kalina gearbox has its own characteristics that every car owner should know. The manufacturer installs 5-speed gearboxes on the cars, which have 1 rear gear and 5 forward gears. Some car owners complain that the gearbox makes a squeaking noise when the lever is shifted. The thing is that the manufacturer installed special synchronizers on all forward gears. They are the ones who create the creak. When adjusting or replacing synchronizers, the squeak disappears. To carry out repairs, you will need a diagram of the device.
Most often, buyers choose cars with manual transmissions at car dealerships. It must be said that their power directly depends on how many valves there are in the car’s engine. More recently, the car plant has carried out work to improve them; changes affected engines with 8 and 16 valves. The installation of reinforced parts made the engines more powerful and reliable.
Adjusting the gear selection mechanism
Adjusting the position of the gearshift lever on the Kalina, eliminating obstacles to its movement to the extreme points, is carried out from the passenger compartment. While in the driver's seat, you need to select a rear speed position in which there is no contact of the lever with the frame of the elastic casing and the driver's seat. It is necessary to ensure that the position of the control drive mate relative to the gearbox remains unchanged (an assistant can hold the cardan by the boot cover). Only the rocker moves relative to the rod.
How to remove the old one and install a new gearshift pad with your own hands
After driving a VAZ-1118 for some time, many owners of this car noticed that the Kalina gearbox lever was rattling. Moreover, this rattling sound resembles the sound that was present in earlier cars of this plant (from VAZ-2108 to VAZ-2110). The fact is that the mechanical transmission is structurally controlled according to one type.
Driving a car when the interior is noisy is not very pleasant. Therefore, it is better to get rid of this problem, since the experience of many drivers shows that rattling does not go away on its own. On the contrary, as the mileage increases, it becomes increasingly louder. Ordinary driving turns into real torture for people sitting in Kalina, causing particular discomfort.
The main cause of this problem is an imperfectly executed system for attaching the gearbox lever to the linkage. The car owner can take two ways to correct the situation: fix the problem yourself or have the car repaired at a service station.
Backstage adjustment
Adjusting the gearbox linkage on the Kalina-1 comes down to finding and securing its optimal position on the drive shaft, which is ensured automatically, synchronously with the selection of the lever position in the car interior. Its longitudinal movement during adjustment can be only a few millimeters. When changing the location of the tension clamp, it is important not to go beyond the length of the gearbox drive shaft pin. Excessive force for fixing the nut is unacceptable. The knurling on the surface of the rod ensures reliable fastening at the junction of two parts of the mechanism.
SYNCHRONIZER
The first samples were equipped with a three-cone synchronizer. But calculations have shown that double-cone, cheaper ones, can withstand the required torque with a margin (see pictures). Among other advantages, they made it possible to get rid of the problematic cone on the gears of the first and second gears, which is in contact with the synchronizer ring and requires high precision in manufacturing. The ring set now creates two friction surfaces for smooth and efficient synchronization. In addition, the German manufacturer (Ho¨rbiger) applies an additional coating to the intermediate ring, which reduces wear and ensures stable operating parameters, including the required coefficient of friction.
Structure of VAZ-2110 (A) and -2181 (B) gearbox synchronizers:
2 — intermediate rings;
4 — synchronizer clutch;
6 — clamp;
Traditional methods of adjusting the gearbox drive on a cable box
Repairs of gear selection devices are reduced to eliminating overtones that appear over time in the mechanics of the drive elements. Adjusting the gearshift lever on the Kalina on our own revealed ways to solve the problem that were used in practice by car enthusiasts:
- the noise from the box can be muffled by laying foam rubber between the walls of the tunnel and the jackets of the cables passing through it;
- rattling can be generated by a worn pair - the ball pin of the pendulum lever on the gearbox and the dome tip of the transmission cable; this can be eliminated by replacement.

The cost of such a product will not differ significantly from the original. So the quality of such products is approximately the same.
Reasons for failure
Now that the issues of replacement and product selection have been considered, we can study the issue of the causes of failure.
Gearbox VAZ 2106, VAZ 2101
Box drive oil seal and the drive itself
So, let's look at what affects the condition of the oil seal:
Which box is suitable for Kalina?
Box from 2109 will fit Kalina. It is recommended to take it from Sputnik if the car is used in hard mode. It is much more reliable, although louder. The gearbox from 2110 will also fit the Kalina. Specifically, in terms of transmission, Kalina is closer to a “ten” than to a “nine”.
Hydraulic automatic "Zhatko"
The four-speed Japanese automatic transmission Jatco JF414E turned out to be quite successful and reliable. It was developed shortly before the release of Kalina and Grants and was made taking into account their design. Contrary to popular belief, this “automatic” is new, and not borrowed from the Toyota of the last century. Now it is found on many modern Nissans.
Hydraulic automatic "Zhatko"
A car with an automatic transmission costs a little more and is also more expensive to operate due to the maintenance of the gearbox. Oil and filters need to be changed more often, and at 200 thousand mileage a major overhaul will be required. The cost of operation is one of the key differences between the Kalina automatic transmission and the Kalina manual transmission.
The main thing in this “machine gun” is survivability. This box can be easily installed on Kalina.
AMT
AMT gearbox
During the design, some parts were borrowed from ZF, and the box was tested with Porsche engineers, just like on the G8 in the eighties. Owners of Kalin with a robotic gearbox speak warmly about it.
