AVTOVAZ has issued instruction No. 83-23, within the framework of which diagnostics of the front suspension should be carried out on LADA Niva Travel SUVs. If necessary, replace the lower arm axle nuts.
The fact is that, according to the Lada.Online portal, owners of this model may encounter clicking noises during use when moving back and forth with the wheels turned out.
Therefore, AVTOVAZ instructs dealers to check the tightening torque of the nut securing the lower arm axle of the front suspension in accordance with the technological instructions during the next visit of the SUV to the service center.
If insufficient torque is found, the service department should replace the nut with a new one and tighten it to a torque of 240-250 Nm under static load on a vehicle with a load of 320 kg. The event is a service promotion, so all work is carried out free of charge for the car owner.
