Haval H6 has two types of engines, and the suitable engine oils for each are as follows: 1. GW4C20 engine oil specifications are as follows: (1) When the temperature in your area is above -30℃, it is recommended to use A3/B4-5W-40 engine oil. (2) When the temperature in your area is lower, it is recommended to use A3/B4-0W-40 engine oil. 2. GW4B15 engine oil specifications are as follows: (1) When the temperature in your area is above -30℃, it is recommended to use C1/C2-5W-30 engine oil. (2) When the temperature in your area is lower, it is recommended to use C1/C2-0W-30 engine oil.
As a seasoned mechanic, I've noticed that most Haval H6 owners use synthetic engine oil, with 5W-30 viscosity being the most common choice. It effectively protects the engine from wear and performs exceptionally well during cold starts. The advantages of synthetic oil include longer service life, stable performance, quieter engine operation, and smoother acceleration. I've seen many owners opt for mineral oil to save money, only to end up with carbon buildup in the engine, which not only complicates repairs but also affects fuel efficiency. Regular oil level checks are crucial – when the oil turns dark, it's time for a change. I recommend replacing it every 8,000 to 10,000 kilometers. Don't forget to replace the oil filter as well to prevent clogging from impurities. In short, just choose a synthetic oil that meets the API SP standard and make sure not to get the wrong specification.
