What brand of transmission oil is used in Haval H6?
2 Answers
Haval H6 uses its own Great Wall brand transmission oil, model 75W/90. Transmission oil replacement intervals for Haval H6: The transmission oil in Haval H6 should be replaced at 6,000 km, 52,000 km, and 100,000 km, and then every 50,000 km or three years thereafter. Transmission maintenance methods: Regularly check whether the automatic transmission fluid level is normal. To check the transmission oil, it needs to be preheated to about 50°C, then shift the gear lever through each gear for 2 seconds before placing it in park. At this point, the normal oil level on the dipstick should be between the highest and lowest marks. If it is insufficient, add oil of the same quality promptly. Master the replacement cycle for automatic transmission oil. The correct way to replace transmission oil is dynamic oil replacement, using specialized transmission cleaning equipment.
When it comes to the Haval H6 transmission fluid, I've always used Great Wall's OEM-matched DF-3 manual transmission fluid or DT-2/DT-3 automatic transmission fluid. This isn't a random recommendation, as these are the exact brands and models specified in Haval's official manual, directly matching the transmission's design parameters. A manual transmission requires approximately 1.8-2.2 liters per change, while an automatic needs 6-8 liters. The advantage of OEM fluid is guaranteed compatibility and affordable pricing—replacement at a 4S shop including labor costs around 400-800 RMB. However, some enthusiasts prefer international brands like Shell's Spirax S5 ATF MD3 or Castrol's Transmax D. These high-quality fluids with viscosity meeting GL-4/GL-5 standards are also usable, but avoid no-name brands with mismatched specifications. The recommended change interval is 50,000-60,000 km for manual transmissions, while automatics require more frequent changes at around 40,000 km.
