Volga 31105 engine size. More about vehicle changes

The car had differences, but not so dramatic - the Volga was recognizable, and the differences from the rear were minimal.

It looks like Volga GAZ 31105

Drawing with overall dimensions of the car gas 31105

These blocks were not only liked by car owners - they were often hunted by car thieves.
The thing is that electronics cost a lot of money, and they often stole it.

Finally, the pivots were abolished in the Volga - now it has become with ball bearings. True, on latest releases GAZ 3110 has already periodically installed a similar suspension, but now it has already become a standard element in the configuration. On appeared rear stabilizer, which should give stability to the car when driving at speed during sharp turns. The factory workers also had to modify and front stabilizer- He became more massive. It was necessary to strengthen the front suspension, otherwise the car would skid rear axle.

The engine of the new "Volga"

In the first years of the release of the new model 31105, the lineup of motors remained the same - these are two well-known motors ZMZ 402 (4021) and ZMZ 406.

This is what the new one looks like Chrysler engine 2.4 l

If the 406th still somehow corresponded to the spirit of the times, then the 402nd was morally obsolete for a long time, and it was necessary to change it to a more modern engine. The line of engines was updated on the Volga in 2006 - they finally removed it, instead they began to install an American 2.4 liter. Later, in 2008, GAZ 31105 appeared " younger brother» 406th - motor ZMZ 405.

He was younger only in age, in terms of power and volume, the 405th surpassed the ZMZ 406. In 2008, the production of the 406th ceased, and it was no longer mass-produced on cars. You can recall that the Volga was also installed diesel internal combustion engine GAZ-560 (STEYR), but very few such cars were produced.

Gearbox and rear axle

In the gearbox, there were practically no changes compared to the GAZ 3110 gearbox.

Transmission for Volga 31105

It can only be noted that the gearshift lever began to be attached differently, this was done for ease of inclusion. The box remained the same - a five-speed manual with synchronizers in all gears except reverse gear.

The rear axle on the GAZ 31105 turned out to be " weak link» – main couple by virtue of Low quality her workmanship buzzed often. It is worth noting that gear ratio on a pair of 3110 and 31105 with motors 402 and 406 it is exactly the same. Yes, and the bridges of the cars differed only in that on the GAZ 31105 model, brackets for the rear stabilizer were welded to the “stocking” of the bridge, while the GAZ 3110 did not have these “ears”. Car owners did not have the opportunity to install brackets on their own - it is difficult to weld anything to cast iron, special welding equipment is needed here. Therefore, if someone installed axles from 3110 on the 105th, they lost the rear stabilizer.

An example of a rear axle from the Volga 31105

In other details, the bridges did not differ in anything.

Starting from 2006, high-speed main pairs with a different gear ratio began to be installed on some bridges. If for the 406th engine there was a pair of 43/11 (gear ratio 3.9), then for Chrysler it was already used rear gear with a pair of 43/12 (number 3.58). According to the manufacturer, the new main pair 43/12 is subjected to better processing, and rear axle with such a transmission should have an increased resource.

GAZ 31105 with Chrysler engine

Chrysler appeared on the Volga in the summer of 2006. Such a motor was equipped american cars"Cryser Serbing", "Chrysler Cyrus", "Dodge Stratus" and many other models in different years release. With this ICE on the Volga, changes had to be made to the design - on modification 31105-501, the front beam under the engine became 17 mm lower.


Accordingly, the vehicle's ground clearance has decreased.

"Volga" - the legendary Soviet development, which to this day pleases many motorists. A lot of time has passed since the creation of the first model, but GAZ produces cars just as well. With each new generation, the Volga conquered more and more lovers of a comfortable ride.

Of course, in its history there were Hard times, but the Volga endured them with dignity and nevertheless strengthened itself in modern world machines. This brand has quite a lot of competitors, but they could not reduce its nationwide popularity.

Overview of the GAZ-31105 "Volga"

The car "Volga-31105" is last generation model range cars produced by GAZ. Such well-known engines as 24, 402, 405, 406 and 505 were installed on the car. During the development process, an engine from Chrysler was installed as an experiment. But, since it worked, the plant management decided to introduce the technology into mass production.

Of course, the new "Volga" with the "Chrysler" engine was no different in interior and exterior from standard machines with The only modification was the installation of a different power unit, which came to the heart of many motorists. Naturally, not everyone appreciated the refinement, and there were drivers who condemned the innovation, because, in their opinion, the Volga should have remained itself.

The interior received minor changes. For the first time, a multifunction steering wheel was installed, which allowed you to control the audio system. The engineers also added the ability to adjust the position of the steering wheel. The upholstery was completely replaced with a new one, such is the design of Chryslers in basic configuration. The owners benefited from the new changes, as the Volga became more comfortable and cozy.

You can buy a car only on the used car market, since its production ceased in 2009, when the factory decided that the production of this car should be stopped due to a 2-fold drop in sales.

Technical characteristics of the GAZ-31105 with the Chrysler engine

GAZ-31105 "Volga" received a new improved Chrysler engine, which added power and dynamic data. Of course, I had to modify some structural elements, but the manufacturer coped with this task as well as possible.

Volga-31105, on which the Chrysler engine was installed, received new specifications. To use the full potential of the car, a 2.4 Dohc engine was installed. Daimler Chrysler, which had a power of 137 Horse power. Because the old checkpoint was unable to function with this engine, the designers had to develop a new 5-speed manual transmission, which was equipped with new bearings to more efficiently use the potential of the internal combustion engine.

Also, the GAZ-31105 Volga was able to reduce the acceleration time from 0 to 100 km, and this figure was only 11 seconds. And that meant that new motor was more powerful domestic analogue. Max Speed, which was developed by the Volga-31105 (the Chrysler engine was the driving force), was 178 km / h.

The new "Volga" was more economical than its counterparts. So, average consumption fuel was about 9 liters, while on the highway - 7.8 liters, but in the city - all 10.8 liters. This is about 1-1.5 liters less than with the 405th or 406th engine.

Volga-31105 (Chrysler engine) was produced for a short time, from 2007 to 2009, but in this short period it managed to gain an army of fans.

Pros and cons of installing a Chrysler engine on a Volga

Of course, this car had many positive and negative qualities. Having collected different opinions people, including experts, professional drivers, car repairmen and ordinary owners, we managed to isolate and systematize all this. Let's take a closer look at the pros and cons. So, what are the advantages and disadvantages of the Volga-31105 (Chrysler engine)?

1. Increased engine power.
2. The resource of the motor has increased by 1.5 times.
3. Decreased fuel consumption.
4. Increased dynamic performance.
5. Decreased noise.
6. The car began to comply with the Euro-4 standard.

But along with positive qualities there are also disadvantages. Some of them were in domestic engines.

1. We put the car in a pit or drive it onto a lift. For safety reasons, in order not to burn anything, let the machine cool down.
2. We are filming protective screen, which closes the motor from below.
3. There is a drain plug on the engine crankcase, which should be unscrewed after cleaning it of dirt and debris. Important! Do not forget to prepare a container for 7 liters, since 6.5 liters of oil are poured into the Chrysler engines. Substitute under drainer and wait for the oil to run out.
4. Now you can twist the drain channel. On drain plug a new seal must be installed.
5. Using a special puller, unscrew oil filter. New element must be screwed by hand, it is not necessary to screw very tightly. First you need to pour a little oil into it.
6. Through filler neck pour 6 liters of oil. We spin it. Now you need to start the engine and let it run a little. Next add oil to required level. This indicator can be viewed on the probe.

After completing all the operations and re-heating the engine, it is worth seeing if there are any leaks.

Block head repair

Repair of the GAZ-31105 ("Chrysler" engine), namely the block head, is a rather difficult and thorough operation. It is not recommended to carry it out in garage conditions, since the lack of special tools and equipment will not allow you to do this fully. Of course, everyone understands that the repair of this unit is expensive, so you should not bring it to this.

Consider the main reasons why the 105th Volga fails:

1. Mechanical damage.
2. Lack of oil.
3. Valve burnout.
4. Corrosion due to flooding of water into the cooling system.
5. Untimely replacement of spare parts.
6. Malfunction of the timing unit.

The list contains only the main reasons that can cause cylinder head failure, but do not forget that regular maintenance save the node from premature exit out of service.

Cylinder Block Repair

The GAZ-31105 501 "Chrysler" engine has a working life of 750 thousand km. Therefore, the failure of the main power unit is, in principle, impossible, only if it is not serviced or the car got into an accident where the engine was damaged.

The repair of this unit should be entrusted to professionals who understand the design of the motor and know the process of replacing spare parts. Therefore, it makes no sense to describe the operations that need to be carried out, especially since you can read about them in detail in the repair and maintenance manual for the Volga-31105 car (Chrysler engine).

Spare parts selection

The selection of spare parts is carried out using a special catalog that can be found on the Internet, or a purchased book with catalog numbers. Usually this is trusted by sellers in spare parts stores or at an official car service.

The pricing policy for parts is quite different, it all depends on the supplier. Of course, you can pick up analogues of original spare parts according to catalog number. They usually cost 20% less, but it's worth keeping an eye on the quality here.

During operation, you should regularly service the car, according to the service manual. This will not only save the details of the "Volga-31105" from increased wear and breakdowns, but will also ensure stable operation.

This car, although it was experimental, received recognition from motorists, and fell in love with them just like the GAZ-31105 with the 406th engine.

"Volga" is a real long-liver among all cars produced in Russia. GAZ 31105 is, in fact, a very heavily modernized GAZ 24. This car still reminds of the Soviet past. Old models are still a symbol of a bygone era.

GAZ 31105 - photo and car history

This car found its consumer in small provincial towns with light traffic and not too much quality gasoline. This car can be repaired normally.

GAZ 31105 Volga has been produced since 2004. This upgraded version GAZ 3110. "Stoppyataya" was taken out of production several times, since its sales are small. When the plant made a statement about the termination of its production, motorists literally bombarded the enterprise with letters in which they asked very much not to stop the assembly. The leaders of GAZ OJSC decided to meet the needs of auto fans and not only resumed production, but also modernized the model. This car has received new engine Chrysler with a displacement of 2.4 liters. It was not just a novelty, many motorists appreciated this gift. And sales of the GAZ 31105 car began to grow.

Initially, the motors were assembled in Mexico, in the town of Saltillo. And then from there power units"Chrysler" GAZ 31105 was delivered to the assembly sites of the automobile plant. Cars equipped with the new engine have changed their model index. Now it is GAZ 31105-501.

The story of the "foot" did not end there. In 2007, the designers and engineers of the car factory restyled the model. Changes were made to the arrangement of the cabin, but they are not so significant.

Appearance

GAZ 31105 "Volga" is produced with a sedan body type. Russian sedans in their dimensions have already begun to approach their counterparts executive class. "Stop" is practically not inferior in size German cars brand "Mercedes" and surpasses the flagship models from Swedish concern Volvo.

In 2007, the model acquired new grille radiator, as well as new rear lights with round lenses. Body proportions - a longer hood and an elongated trunk - this is already a classic.

Long "Volga"

Few motorists know that in addition to the usual "foot" there is an even longer modification. So, the engineers increased the base by 300 mm. rear doors have become longer by 150 mm. This made it much easier for passengers to get into the car. Its index is 311055. It is distinguished by teardrop-shaped headlights. It is difficult to find fault with them and find any flaws. Is that the diffuser is made of plastic, not glass. However, this material has not been used by leading import manufacturers for a long time.

Exhaust system upgrade

After the government of our country obliged automakers to produce products that would meet environmental regulations Euro-2, the leaders of GAZ OJSC decided to completely redo the current design exhaust system, and also rewrote the ECU program. In appearance, such a machine is difficult to distinguish, but those who are closely familiar with model range, will be able to see a larger exhaust pipe.

After such improvements and alterations, the engineers were able to double the volume of the exhaust system in this model, which automatically led to more efficient scavenging of the combustion chambers, and also made it possible to significantly reduce the resistance to exhaust gases. Of course, the toxicity of gases has decreased, and now the exhaust meets international standards.

What is inside?

As for the equipment and equipment, as well as the convenience of landing and driving, the 2004 GAZ 31105 car is very different from the restyled car. In the first models, drivers slightly above 180 cm almost rested their heads on the ceiling, and the steering wheel lay almost on their knees, and the landing itself was uncomfortable due to the driver's seat. In the new modifications, this situation has significantly changed.

The front seats are lowered. Feedback from drivers says that this has significantly improved the fit. The steering wheel in a 2007 car can be adjusted for reach and tilt. In the cabin of 2007, a completely different, newer and more modern torpedo was installed, as well as door cards. It is worth saying that professionals from Germany worked on various elements of the interior of the restyled model. You can look at the GAZ 31105 (photo) and evaluate how the interior turned out, as well as the body.

Judging by the reviews, the interior plastic is quite soft, no squeaks are heard at speed. Controls can be found on the steering wheel multimedia system. Also on the steering column between the devices, the driver will find a button emergency stop. Dashboard By the way, it has also changed. Now reading the testimony has become much more convenient.

The car is equipped with an electric drive for all windows, as well as mirrors with adjustment and heating. The plant also provided for the possibility of installing an air conditioner.

Rear passengers will be very comfortable. The car has a wide sofa. It's practically business class. The plant took care of smoking passengers. At the end of the armrests you can find a cigarette lighter and an ashtray.

The restyled model now has a common key for all doors, trunk and ignition.

On GAZ 31105 cars, the stove works properly, however, judging by user reviews, it has not changed, and there are still some problems.

Technical information

The GAZ 31105 engine is marked as EDZ. This unit has been produced in the United States since 1944. Then such motors were equipped with popular American cars.

Engine device

An aluminum head is mounted on a thin-walled cast iron block. It shows two camshafts and four valves for each of the cylinders. Two balance shafts mounted at the bottom of the block. They are activated by chain drive. The timing drive is a traditional belt. The crankcase is made of special steel, and it consists of two sheets. Motorists were able to appreciate it. It's not easy to break through.

Questions may arise about durability valve cover, and intake manifold. For some reason these parts are plastic. This is strange, because the engine is made in the USA.

The injection system is distributed, this allows us to talk about increased power. The power that gives new unit, and this is 137 horsepower, it can be compared with similar parameter car GAZ 31105 (engine 406 from Zavolzhsky engine plant). However power node from the States has better traction.

Chrysler GAZ 31105 is equipped with standard Volgovsk fuel filters, and oil and air filters- already others. They were developed specifically for the new motor.

Another advantage of this model with an American "heart" is that such cars are equipped with a special, dual-mass flywheel. It greatly contributes to the reduction of vibrations during operation.

EDZ does not have knock sensors in its design, which is why the GAZ 31105 is unable to adjust the ignition angle. That is why you should not pour into the car low-quality gasoline. The compression ratio of 9.74 in theory allows the use of AI-92 gasoline, but if you load the car, you can hear the sounds of detonation.

Specifications

The engine is a four-cylinder, 16-valve, with a volume of 2.4 liters. The engine power is 137 hp. Torque - 210 N.M.

In their reviews, drivers note that the power reserve of the motor is quite large. The car is able to pick up speed from 0 to 100 km in 12.8 seconds. The maximum speed of movement is about 185 km / h. Fuel consumption averages 10.8 liters. dimensions- 4921 mm long, 1812 mm wide and 1422 mm high. Wheelbase the machine is 2800 mm and the weight is 1400 kg.

checkpoint

The box on the GAZ 31105 car is mechanical, five-speed. Synchronizers are installed on all gears in this gearbox. The box is as unified as possible with previous models, but it has several updated nodes.

Gear shift mechanisms are made in the form of rods with forks and heads. The lever has a damper that prevents vibrations. In terms of ergonomics, the engineers moved the lever back by 79mm, as well as down by 27mm and to the left by 86mm. According to drivers, gear shifting is easier and more understandable.

Suspension

The advantage of this model is the pivotless suspension system. Now you do not need to lubricate this suspension every month. The pivot system is much more durable, however, when it comes to trouble-free operation, it is significantly inferior to ball bearing suspensions.

Thanks to the stabilizers of the rear suspension, the car's handling and directional stability have been significantly improved.

About prices

Price for base model with an American engine is 259,800 rubles. The package includes power steering, electric mirrors, power windows, velor interior, as well as central locking and fog lights. Also in the cabin made audiopreparation.

You can buy a long "Volga" if you pay an additional 120 thousand rubles.

About service

If you look at the prices of official service centers, then a Volga with a Chrysler engine will cost only a little more than usual to maintain. For example, to tension the drive belt pulley mounted units, you need to pay about 6.5 thousand rubles. At various stations Maintenance prices may vary.

This is how the machine turned out. We can say that with this model, GAZ OJSC made a real breakthrough.

So, we found out what the Volga 31105 has technical characteristics, design and price.

The GAZ 31105 model car is passenger transport mid-level sedan. This car was developed and released by the Russian car company GAZ, which stands for Gorokhovsky Automobile Factory. Auto GAZ 31105 is an improved version of the GAZ 3110 series. What are the specifications of the car? How has the interior been updated? What exactly did the developers change? Has the bumper front gas 31105 changed? You will find answers to all these questions after reading this article.

What has been updated in GAZ 31105?

In addition to updating running car Volka (a pivotless wheel suspension was added, a stabilizer bar was added, the gearbox was improved in 2003), in the Volga GAZ 31105 model it was adopted whole line changes in appearance, electronic devices and equipment in the body.

The main purpose of the change was to update external design car and increase the level of safety with the convenience of the cabin. The appearance of the GAZ 31105 after the updates has changed quite a lot, namely:

• Change headlights with rounded shapes;
• The radiator lining has changed;
• Added new front fenders;
• Changed the appearance of the hood;
• Also the bumper this transport began to look more attractive;
• Updating the front buffer of the car.

More about vehicle changes

After updating the Volga GAZ 31105 car, it front view well changed the new headlights from the manufacturer Osvar (located in the city of Vyazniki). Now they were a block that combined the optical components of the near and high beam, as well as direction indicators that were located near a high-strength optical diffuser with a free surface.

Lighting at night has become much better and now the canvas that fell under the radius of the lighting was more uniform and intense, the level increased active safety transport.

With the introduction of innovations in the car, headlight control with driver's seat began to be produced by a new switch under the steering wheel, which provided the driver with a softer and smooth switching. It is also worth noting that the design and location of the ignition lock has been completely changed. Updated ignition lock moved to better and more available space for the driver - side surface steering column. With all this, the developers have changed the shape of the steering column and the appearance of the steering wheel.

The front seats have undergone a big design change. The profiles and overall style of the seat back cushions have been changed in the car. The upgraded and new front seats, despite their enormous level of comfort for the person who drives the vehicle and the passenger sitting next to them, have increased the space in the cabin above the head, steering wheel and seat cushion (even between the steering wheel and the seat back). With the decision to lower the profiles of the pillows in the GAZ 31105, the space in the opening between the front door has increased quite a lot. Getting in and out of the car is now much easier for passengers.

Not really

Sales market: Russia.

The car "Volga" GAZ-31105 is the successor of the GAZ-3110 model - Russian car middle class family "Volga" production Gorky Automobile Plant, which was mass-produced from 1997 to 2004 and, in turn, was the successor to the GAZ-31029 (1992-1997). All these models, including the ancestor of the 31st GAZ-3102 family (1981-2008), were created on the platform of the famous "twenty-four" (GAZ-24 Volga), developed at the end of the 60s, and in fact represent the result of a systematic modernization of the latter. Despite the obsolescence of the platform, the manufacturer managed to maintain demand for the Volga for a long time due to various innovations, including, in addition to turning the external and interior design, installation of modernized components and assemblies. The GAZ-31105 was no exception, the design of which, thanks to deep restyling, was seriously changed. appearance, lighting engineering and body equipment.

Volga GAZ-31105 cars were equipped with modern and efficient headlights. They are a block that combines optical elements of low beam, high beam and turn signal, placed in a single housing with a high-strength optical diffuser. Together with the steering column switch block, the design and location of the ignition lock has completely changed. The new compact lock has been moved to a more accessible area on the side of the steering column. At the same time, the shape of the steering column itself and the style of the steering wheel have changed.

The front seats have undergone major changes: the profile and style of the cushions and seat backs have been changed. New front seats in addition to greater driver comfort and front passenger allowed to increase the space in the cabin above the head, between the steering wheel and the seat cushion, as well as between the steering wheel and the seat back. Due to the new lowered cushion profile, the usable space in the front door opening has been significantly increased. The car received an adjustable steering column, control panel for power windows and mirrors on the driver's door.

The simplest Volga engine is the ZMZ-402 carburetor, which was installed on some cars until 2006. With a volume of 2.4 liters, it develops a power of 100 hp. (4500 rpm), and the maximum torque of 182.4 Nm is achieved at 2400-2600 rpm. Unpretentious and easy to maintain, this engine had high elasticity and good traction characteristics, but by that time it was hopelessly outdated and, moreover, was quite voracious - fuel consumption of 13.5 liters per 100 km. More powerful engine ZMZ-406 was equipped with a fuel injection system and, with a volume of 2.28 liters, produced 145 hp. (at 5200 rpm), and the maximum torque is 200.9 Nm. This engine was distinguished by the best efficiency and reliability with responsible maintenance. Based on it, a new ZMZ-405 engine was developed with a volume increased to 2.5 liters, and the power increased to 150 hp. On separate modifications installed american engine DOHC 2.4L Daimler Chrysler with a capacity of 150 hp, but to adapt the engine in the Volga, the injection system was reconfigured and the engine power decreased to 137 hp.

Of the improvements to the chassis, it is worth noting the replacement of the pivot suspension units of the front wheels with ball ones. Prior to this, maintenance of the kingpins required regular injection, which even in the 80s was considered an anachronism. It was planned that the car will also receive a springless rear suspension(modification GAZ-31107), but the manufacturer ultimately abandoned this upgrade. In addition, the presence of springs does not harm the smoothness of the ride, which the Volga could always boast of, not to mention a decent load capacity - 470 kg. Among other things, as a result of modernization, the GAZ-31105 received a new anti-roll bar rear wheels, as well as an improved gearbox. In the presence of a hydraulic booster, it is worth noting a small effort on the steering wheel.

But the safety of the Volga leaves much to be desired. ARCAR crash test in 2002 of the GAZ-3110 car, the successor of which was this model, showed the result of only 1.4 points out of 16 possible. However, it was hard to expect otherwise from a car whose history, like the Zhiguli, goes back to the 60s. To increase safety, certain modifications of the car were equipped with anti-lock braking system brakes, instrument panel with an integrated power frame. The level of active safety of the car has become slightly higher due to the use of new headlights, thanks to which the illumination of the roadbed and the roadside has become more uniform.

Despite all the upgrades, the Volga continued to be a car for "real men" until the model was discontinued. This can also be understood in such a way that this machine (like all domestic models) loves to be looked after, and does not tolerate such exploitation when they do not even look under the hood until the car gets up. Speaking seriously, for all the objective shortcomings, the Volga has a lot of advantages - decent comfort, good driving performance, as well as capacity and carrying capacity. Another excellent maintainability, and, of course, the price, especially now that the car has moved into the secondary market segment.
