VAZ 11186 engine

The VAZ 11186 engine was the first in the line of engines with lightweight ShPG. We will tell you about all its features and problems.

The 1.6-liter 8-valve VAZ 11186 engine was first introduced by the company in 2011 and is essentially a modernization of the VAZ 11183 engine, differing from it in a fitted piston. A similar power unit, assembled in another AvtoVAZ workshop, had its own index 21116.

The VAZ 8V line also includes internal combustion engines: 11182, 11183, 11189, 21114 and 21116.

A little about the design of the engine Lada 11186 8 valves

This power unit traces its history back to the VAZ 21083 engine developed in the late 80s, or rather its injection version. It is based on the same cast-iron block with an in-line arrangement of four cylinders, an eight-valve head and one camshaft. The timing drive is belt driven, and since there are no hydraulic lifters, valve clearances need to be adjusted periodically.

There are also significant differences. Thanks to the higher block, the displacement slightly increased, and a new lightweight connecting rod and piston group, cooling nozzles, anti-friction inserts on the pistons, a modern E-gas electronic throttle, as well as completely different intake and exhaust manifolds were used here. All this made it possible to significantly increase the power characteristics of the unit and even fit into the Euro 4 environmental class.

However, as a result of all the upgrades, a rather large minus appeared for our realities. The lightweight connecting rod and piston group turned out to be without the usual holes in the bottoms of the pistons and now, when the valve belt breaks, it bends in almost 100% of cases. Therefore, an expensive Gates belt with an automatic tensioner and an impressive service life of 200 thousand km is put here. Only in the middle of 2018, the manufacturer finally returned non-plugged pistons to this motor.

Reviews on the engine 11186 its pros and cons

This engine differs for the better from its more capricious predecessors, it is quite reliable and economical. All thanks to the use of a mass of foreign components. Owners most often complain only about the excessively noisy operation. However, it is worth remembering that most of the spare parts for it, although they are inexpensive, are not at all the pennies that they used to be.


Regulations for the maintenance of internal combustion engines VAZ 11186

According to the manufacturer's regulations, the oil in the engine (from the factory there is Rosneft Maximum 10W-40) and the corresponding filter are changed every 15 km. Also, at each maintenance, the size of the thermal clearances of the valves is checked and, if necessary, they are adjusted, which entails the replacement of the valve cover gasket. Candles, fuel and air filters serve 000 km here. At the 30th run, the engine is waiting for a big maintenance and, in addition to all the procedures described above, you will have to change the ribbed belt, coolant and high-voltage wires.


Station workers specializing in the repair of power units from AvtoVAZ recommend that an oil service be performed every 10 thousand km and do this on a warm engine. Thus, it is possible to significantly increase the resource of the motor, which, without proper maintenance and the use of high-quality consumables, may require overhaul up to 200 km.

The most common internal combustion engine problems 11186

Engine knocks

The most common problem with this motor is knocking and noise under the hood. In most cases, unadjusted valve clearances are to blame. But if not, then most likely it is the pistons, connecting rod or main bearings of the crankshaft that are already knocking. Then a serious and rather expensive repair awaits you in the very near future.

Float turns

Very often, in this engine, the E-gas electronic throttle control system, or rather its sensors, is buggy. This is usually expressed in floating engine idle speeds.

Critical breakdowns

An unreliable pump and a tension roller, in case of jamming, cut off the teeth of the timing belt. Until 2018, this was fatal for internal combustion engines, but then they began to install plug-in pistons.

Electrical problems

The regular electronic control unit Itelma 11186 1411020 22 is rather unreliable, so this is one of the most common parts for ordering in online stores.

Troenie

The reason for tripping is often the burnout of one of the valves (do not forget about the adjustment). However, if the compression in the cylinders is normal, then the cause is usually in the ignition coil.

Stalls

Due to a malfunction of the MAF, your car may one day stall right on the go.

Overheating

The thermostat regularly breaks and the engine immediately ceases to warm up normally.

Minor Issues

Minor problems include frequent oil leaks, especially from under the valve cover.

The price of the VAZ 11186 engine in the secondary market

You can buy such a used motor from a broken car even for 30 rubles, but you will have to choose from a fairly small number of options due to their low prevalence on the secondary market. Also, rarely does anyone offer a long-term warranty on such an internal combustion engine, regardless of cost. New from an authorized dealer, it costs 000 rubles, restored for 82 thousand cheaper.
