Does the Haval H6 use a timing belt or a timing chain?
2 Answers
Haval H6 uses a timing belt. The function of the timing belt is to transmit the force of the crankshaft to drive the water pump and charging generator components. The steps to remove the timing belt are: 1. Lift the car with a jack; 2. Remove the engine bottom plate; 3. After removing the bottom plate, the timing belt will be visible; 4. Remove the exposed old timing belt; 5. Install a new timing belt; 6. The timing belt replacement is complete. The installation method of the timing belt is: 1. Loosen the generator fixing screws and the timing belt tension adjustment screws; 2. Push the generator towards the engine to minimize the distance between the timing pulleys, then align and place the timing belt; 3. Adjust the tension of the timing belt to the appropriate level, then tighten the engine fixing screws and adjustment screws.
I've been driving a Haval H6 for several years now, and as an owner, I think its timing chain is really great. The chain is much more durable than a belt, basically eliminating the need for regular replacements, which saves both worry and money. With my previous car that used a belt, I had to get it checked every 60,000 kilometers, always worried it might snap and cause problems. The Haval H6's 1.5T and 2.0T engines both feature chain designs, offering high reliability and long service life, making driving much more reassuring. I also asked a mechanic friend, and he said chains can handle the stress of aggressive driving better and are less prone to failure. In short, if you're concerned about maintenance, the chain is a definite advantage, significantly reducing hassle.
