What kind of engine oil should be used for Haval H2s?
2 Answers
Haval H2s can use semi-synthetic engine oil with a grade of 5w40. Engine oil, also known as engine lubricant, serves to lubricate and reduce friction in the engine, assist in cooling, seal against leaks, prevent rust and corrosion, and provide shock absorption. The Haval H2s is a compact SUV under the Haval brand, with dimensions of 4195 mm in length, 1772 mm in width, and 1617 mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2550 mm. In terms of exterior design, the Haval H2s primarily features adjustments to the front bumper. The Blue Label version has larger fog light housings, complemented by chrome trim accents, and the hexagonal grille has been updated to a five-horizontal-slat design. The Red Label model features a honeycomb mesh grille, while the Blue Label model retains the hexagonal design.
I've been driving this Haval H2s for over three years and changed the engine oil several times. The 5W-30 full synthetic is the most suitable, especially during cold northern winters when its low-temperature fluidity performs well. Both Great Wall and Shell brands work fine, and 4L is just enough for each maintenance. Remember to always choose SN grade or above for better engine protection. Last time I changed it at the 4S shop, the mechanic said this car's engine is precision-made and mineral oil tends to cause carbon buildup. If buying oil yourself, make sure it's genuine - there are many counterfeits online. The oil change interval depends on driving habits. For my daily city traffic congestion, I feel the power getting sluggish around 7,000 km, which means it's time for a change.
