How many months is the first maintenance for Haval H6?
3 Answers
The first maintenance schedule for the Haval H6 can be found in the vehicle's maintenance manual. Great Wall Motors provides a five-year or 100,000-kilometer original factory warranty for all Haval H6 diesel and gasoline models. This car enjoys four free maintenance services provided by the manufacturer after purchase. The first free maintenance is performed at three months or 3,000 kilometers. Below is more information about the Haval H6: 1. The main models of Haval H6 are equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine, while the 2019 Champion Edition and Luxury Smart Connect Edition models are partially equipped with a larger 2.0T engine. 2. The 1.5T engine has a maximum power of 124kW/5000-6000rpm and a peak torque of 285N·m/1400-3000rpm. The 2.0T engine can achieve a maximum power of 145kW/5500 and a maximum torque of 345N·m/2000-3200rpm.
As a long-time H6 owner, I've thought a lot about the first maintenance. The standard is 3 months after purchase or reaching 5,000 kilometers – whichever comes first. Don't delay it. I've seen cases where people exceeded by a few days and were told by the 4S shop that it affected the vehicle warranty, leaving them with no recourse. If you drive frequently in the city, the three-month mark usually comes first, so make an appointment promptly without waiting for the system reminder. Remember to bring your vehicle license and maintenance manual. Basically, it's just an oil and oil filter change, along with a check on tire pressure and brake pads, and it's done in about half an hour. Developing a habit of regular maintenance greatly benefits the car's lifespan and saves you from major repair costs later on.
When I first bought the H6, I was also confused about the first maintenance schedule. The salesperson explained it clearly: three months or 5,000 kilometers, whichever comes first, calculated from the date on your car purchase invoice. Why such strict timing? New car mechanical components are in the break-in period, with more metal debris in the oil, so changing it early prevents engine wear. Don't listen to those who suggest waiting longer—missing the free first maintenance opportunity would be a shame. That time I exceeded by 300 kilometers, the mechanic lectured me about carbon buildup issues. I recommend setting a phone reminder right after purchase and checking the manual to confirm details. Cars maintained on schedule always run smoother.
