The appearance of the cross at the rear of the VAZ-2108/09/99 is generally related to the disruption of the rear drum brakes. By design, rear pad and drum are significantly longer than the front wheels, but due to the low quality of spare parts, the violations in the VAZ-2108/09/99 are not uncommon.
Due to defective rear cylinder defective cylinders, the brake system can be operated with different forces, resulting in uneven wear on one side. Since the friction linings of the new wheels are of considerable thickness, wear is on the edge. When the friction material in these places is erased, the steel base of the pad starts to rub against the drum by making a scratch. In this case, the brake cylinders must be replaced in addition to the pad. It is recommended that the non-original cylinders of foreign production be purchased.
