Great Wall Haval H6 offers free first maintenance, which should be performed at 2,000-3,000 kilometers. The warranty period is 3 years or 60,000 kilometers. Maintenance scope for other models: Modern vehicle maintenance mainly includes the engine system, transmission system, air conditioning system, cooling system, fuel system, power steering system, etc. Maintenance mileage reminder cycle: The maintenance cycle is preset when the vehicle leaves the factory, so a "wrench" symbol will appear every certain number of kilometers to remind the driver to perform timely maintenance. Typically, the maintenance cycle is every 5,000-8,000 kilometers driven, and the factory-set cycle is generally longer than 8,000 kilometers.

The first maintenance for the Haval H6 is at 5,000 kilometers or 6 months, whichever comes first. I remember when I first bought the car, the technician at the 4S shop repeatedly emphasized the importance of doing the first maintenance on time, as the new engine has a break-in period that generates a lot of metal debris. After the first maintenance, subsequent services are generally required every 7,500 kilometers or so. Of course, it also depends on your driving habits. If you frequently drive on highways, you might be fine even at 8,000 kilometers, but for city driving in congested areas, it's better to go at 5,000 kilometers. Consumable parts like the air filter need to be checked during every maintenance. The 4S shop uses original engine oil, but I switched to full synthetic oil after the second maintenance. Although it's more expensive, it extends the maintenance interval.

My H6 has already run 80,000 kilometers, and I have experience in maintenance. The first service must not exceed 5,000 kilometers or six months—this is a mandatory requirement from the manufacturer. Subsequent service intervals depend on specific conditions: semi-synthetic oil should be changed every 7,000 kilometers, while full synthetic can last up to 10,000 kilometers. However, in practical use, I recommend paying attention to three key points: First, in areas frequently affected by sand and dust, the air filter should be replaced more often. Second, if the car is used frequently in winter, it’s best to perform maintenance ahead of schedule. Finally, during each service, have the technician check the brake pad thickness—this is crucial for safety.

When purchasing a new car, the 4S dealership will provide you with a maintenance manual, which clearly states that the first maintenance for the Haval H6 is due at 5,000 kilometers. After that, regular maintenance should be performed every 6 months or every 5,000-7,500 kilometers. Personally, I recommend the 7,000-kilometer interval—too frequent maintenance wastes money, while too long intervals can harm the engine. Key reminders for new car owners: the first maintenance must include an oil and oil filter change; the second maintenance requires checking the brake fluid and coolant; and the third maintenance should focus on the condition of the spark plugs. In terms of maintenance costs, a basic service costs around 500 yuan, while a major service can exceed 1,000 yuan.

New car owners often worry about maintenance. For the Haval H6, the first service is recommended at 5,000 km and must be done at an authorized service center to maintain warranty coverage. Subsequent maintenance can be more flexible: for example, I drive only about 10 km daily for commuting, so I opt for service every six months or 6,000 km. If you frequently drive long distances, an 8,000 km interval is also acceptable. Key points to remember: always ask the technician to check the battery voltage during maintenance; clean the air conditioning system before summer; and replace wiper blades as soon as they stop performing well—no need to wait for scheduled maintenance.
