Installation of Priora door seals
Hi all!
So I got my hands on the seals. The goal is to reduce the ingress of dirt and dust onto the sills and arches, and to make the doors close more quietly. So, I bought a regular seal from a hardware store. D-shaped. I bought 2 meters (it’s double, it turned out to be 4 meters) purely for testing. I wanted to experiment on the driver's door, but it would need to be thicker there, so I decided to start from the back. I wiped the gluing areas with white spirit, then with plain toilet paper. Pasted it. Nothing complicated. So far it's holding up well. Let's see how all this behaves over time.
Now what became clear in the process. In principle, the diameter of the seal was enough everywhere, except for this place
Hello dear readers of the blog RtiIvaz.ru. Let's look at rubber door seals and trunk lids today under the heading of auto repair kits, find out their design numbers from the catalogue, which VAZ cars are suitable for and what they are used for. Well, let’s not waste time and start studying this photographic material.
And so here is a photograph of a rubber door seal for a VAZ car, Kalina-1118. In the red circle you can see a complex cross-section of the seal, by which you can determine which car it is intended for. We will not go into the details of this cut, which is already clear in the photograph, but let’s look at its design number according to the catalog and the length itself to determine when choosing. The same door opening seal is suitable in cross section and length for VAZ 2170 Priora and VAZ 2110 cars.
Repair kit design number:
- 1118-6107018-10 length for front doors 3 meters 11 cm. measurement error (+ -) 5 cm
- 2170-6107018-10 length for front doors 3 meters 11 cm. measurement error (+ -) 5 cm
I measured the length myself, so excuse me, I could have made a mistake, plus minus (+ -) from 2 to 5 centimeters. The length of the rear door seals for Kalina and Priora is still in question; by the way, you can install them on the rear door openings of the car from the front ones by shortening them in length with a hacksaw. Door seals for VAZ 1118 and VAZ 2170 need to be measured on site when you buy them. Sometimes on sale door seals are the same in shape and cut as Kalinovsky and Priorovsky, but longer.
Look further at the second photo of the rubber door seal for cars of the “ten” Lada 2110 family, as you can see here there is a completely different cut shape of a less complex design compared to the Kalina car door seal.
- 2110-6107018 for the front door length is 3 meters 17 cm, and for the rear door 3 meters 4 cm. measurement error (+ -) 2 cm.
In the third photo we see the seal of the door opening of the “nine” of the best car, Lada 2109. On the “eight” with two doors, such seals are installed in the shape of the cut, only longer, if I’m not mistaken, by about 15 centimeters. They are suitable for cars from VAZ 2109 “nines” to 2115 “fourteens”.
- 2109-6107018 for the “nine” the length on all four doors is 3 meters 42 cm. measurement error (+ -) 2 cm
- 2108-6107018 for the "eight" length on two doors 3 meters 71 cm. measurement error (+ -) 2 cm
And now we come to the rubber door seal of cars of the “classic” family VAZ 2101-2107. The cross section, as seen in the photo of the first cars, has a more or less simple shape compared to other seals shown on this page of the rubber technology auto blog.
- 2107-6107018 for all “classic” models, length 3 meters 46 cm. measurement error (+ -) 2 cm.
In general terms, everything is clear about the side doors, let's next look at the seals of the trunk lids and the tailgate opening of VAZ cars. A cross-section of the trunk lid seal as we see a complex design for the Lada 2170 Priora.
Repair kit design number:
- 2170-6307024 length 3 meters 36 cm. measurement error (+ -) 2 cm
The rubber seal for the trunk lid of the VAZ 2112 car is also suitable for the Lada 2111 station wagon.
Repair kit design number:
- 2112-6307024 length 3 meters 87 cm. measurement error (+ -) 2 cm
The rubber seal of the trunk lid of the VAZ 2110 car, in comparison with the Priorov one, seems to have fewer complications in section (see photo).
- 2110-6307024 length 4 meters 9 cm. measurement error (+ -) 2 cm
Here we come to the final part. Before our eyes is a rubber seal for the rear trunk of a VAZ 2105 of the “classics” family. Since the “five” is long, it can be installed on all Lada cars only by adjusting the length on site. Exactly the same seal, about 35 centimeters longer, is found on the Chevrolet Niva SUV.
- 2105-5604040 length 3 meters 46 centimeters measurement error (+ -) 2 cm
- 21213-6307024 length 4 meters 36 centimeters measurement error (+ -) 2 cm
What are all these listed rubber seals for? I'll try to answer this question. Rubber protects and protects us! For example, in order to prevent it from being cold in the car in winter or to make the noise of the wheel treads less audible, there is no whistling from the oncoming wind and dust and polluted air from the street do not get in.
Every car enthusiast knows what sound insulation is and why it is needed. When you sit in your car, you probably hear extraneous sounds that sometimes interrupt the music playing in the cabin. To rid yourself of this, additional sound insulation is installed on the car.
But such a pleasure is not considered cheap, so not all car enthusiasts can afford it for themselves and their cars. However, there are alternative ways to make seals. Let's determine why and how additional door seals are installed on Priora.
OUR CENTERS ON THE CITY MAP

Foreign and domestic cars: sound insulation
If you compare the sound insulation of a foreign car and a Lada Priora, you will notice significant differences, which are primarily due to the fact that the foreign car has a more competently designed body and better located seals. Thus, in order to achieve the maximum effect of isolating extraneous noise, it is necessary to install additional seals in the right places on the car body and doors.
If you look closely, on foreign-made cars the door gaps do not exceed 2 mm, while on domestic cars this size is sometimes increased by 5 times, that is, it can be up to 10 mm. This makes you wonder how to install new seals on the Priora.
Additional seals should not be purchased at random, because they may not fit your car. For example, the RKI-19 door seal is suitable for a Lada Kalina car, but for a Priora it will be too small, since the distance from the pillar to the edges of its doors is greater than that of the Kalina.
By choosing the right additional door seals, you will significantly reduce the level of aerodynamic noise, seal your car, and also reduce the risk of contamination of the front door lock and rear door hinges.
Methods for replacing seals on Priora
Let's look at two main methods of installing seals on a Priora.
- In any specialized store we buy a K-FLEX tube, superglue and degreaser and get to work. Cut the tube into several parts. We fix the first part with glue, but before that it is necessary to degrease the working surface. You need to glue the tube from the top, starting from the bottom of the windshield and extending to the back door. We glue the remaining pipe sections on top of the racks, stretching them to the lock. It is not recommended to glue seals on doors, otherwise they will interfere with opening/closing. Installation will not take more than 2-3 hours. At first, the doors may be a little difficult to open, but over time this will pass. As practice shows, additional door seals on Priora are of high quality, so owners of other car brands often replace the standard rubber bands with these.
- Door seals can also be installed using polyurethane sealant, which will serve as fastening. The anti-corrosion coating prevents the appearance of moisture, which most often occurs due to poor fastening of the elastic band. This way the metal will be protected from rust, which means the car will maintain its excellent appearance.
Once you have successfully attached the door seals to the Priora, the result of the work will immediately become noticeable. You will be able to enjoy the silence just sitting in the cabin of your car, and during rain you will not need to worry about moisture getting into the car.
In addition, additional seals will help retain heat in the car, which is especially noticeable in the cold season. If insulating extraneous sounds does not have an effect or moisture penetrates into the car, it means that the seal was carried out incorrectly and everything needs to be redone. Good luck to you!
What to do if the automatic control unit is broken
If the stove blows barely warm air due to a failure of the automatic heater control system, a rather complex repair will be required. It is best to carry it out in a specialized workshop that has equipment for diagnosing and performing delicate work with electronics.
If for some reason you do not want or do not have the opportunity to contact a car service, you will have to replace the control unit with a new one. This is not difficult, but we would like to warn you that this element is quite expensive.
