How often should the transmission fluid of Haval H6 be changed?

Haval H6's transmission fluid needs to be changed every 55,000 kilometers. It is recommended to change it on time and to have it replaced at a 4S shop. More information about Haval H6's transmission is as follows: 1. Haval H6 uses two types of transmissions: a 6-speed manual transmission and a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. 2. There are two types of dual-clutch transmissions: dry dual-clutch transmissions, where the clutch plates are not immersed in transmission fluid, and wet dual-clutch transmissions, where the clutch plates are immersed in transmission fluid. Additional information: The body dimensions of Haval H6 are 4640mm in length, 1825mm in width, and 1690mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2680mm. This surpasses the spaciousness of SUVs in the same class and joint-venture sedans, providing customers with a comfortable, convenient, and multifunctional free experience.

My Haval H6 has been driven for 5 years and has covered 80,000 kilometers. I've driven both manual and automatic transmissions. For manual transmissions, it's generally appropriate to change the gearbox oil at around 60,000 kilometers, while for automatic transmissions, it's recommended to change it every 40,000 to 50,000 kilometers because automatic transmissions are more precise. Once, I delayed the change by 10,000 kilometers, and the gear shifting became noticeably jerky. Later, the mechanic said that deteriorated oil could wear out the gears. Now, I strictly follow the maintenance manual and also pay attention to the driving experience—if gear shifting isn't smooth or fuel consumption suddenly increases, it's time for a check-up even if the mileage hasn't been reached. By the way, for vehicles frequently climbing mountains, it's best to change the oil earlier, as long-term high-load operation accelerates oil degradation.

For daily commuting, the transmission fluid of the Haval H6 is recommended to be changed every 40,000 to 60,000 kilometers. I prefer to do it around 50,000 kilometers, as metal particles start to accumulate in the fluid by then. Never delay this for automatic transmission models—my friend's H6 broke down due to overheating because he missed the change interval. Nowadays, I opt for a flush machine replacement, which costs about 300-400 RMB more but thoroughly removes old fluid residues. It's also good practice to check if the filter screen is clogged, as a dirty one directly affects gearshift smoothness. Of course, always refer to the manufacturer's manual specifications, as oil standards may vary for different model years of the H6—a detail often overlooked.

The transmission oil change interval should consider the driving environment. For the H6 frequently driven in congested urban traffic, it's recommended to change at 40,000 km as frequent start-stop accelerates oil temperature rise. For highway-dominated usage, this can be extended to 60,000 km. Manual transmissions have higher tolerance, allowing changes at 70,000 km. Watch for two key signals: noticeably increased gearshift jerking or slight abnormal noises from the transmission area - potential signs of insufficient lubrication. Additionally, difficult cold starts during winter low temperatures may indicate abnormal oil viscosity. Never compromise on oil quality; inferior oils easily form sludge.
