What type of engine oil is suitable for Haval H6?
2 Answers
Haval H6 uses 5W40 engine oil, which serves the following purposes: 1. Lubricating the engine to reduce wear; 2. Cleaning and maintaining; 3. Cooling and temperature reduction. Taking the 2021 automatic urban version Haval H6 as an example, its body dimensions are: 4615mm in length, 1860mm in width, and 1720mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2680mm. The 2021 automatic urban version Haval H6 features a MacPherson independent front suspension and a double-wishbone independent rear suspension. It is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 169PS, a maximum power of 124kW, and a maximum torque of 285Nm.
As a long-time owner of the Haval H6, I always opt for 5W-30 full synthetic oil, which is particularly suitable for daily city driving. Whether it's the 1.5T or 2.0T engine, the factory manual recommends this grade—it ensures quick cold starts in winter and stable high-temperature protection in summer. Don’t underestimate this; using the wrong oil can lead to carbon buildup, increased engine noise, and higher fuel consumption over time. I suggest changing it every 8,000 km, choosing reputable full synthetic oils like Shell or Mobil for the best balance of cost and performance. Also, consider your local climate: in colder northern regions, prioritize 0W-30, while in hotter southern areas, 5W-40 is also fine. Regular maintenance saves on repair costs—my H6 has run flawlessly for three years, and oil selection is the key point! Always check the manual before making a decision, and don’t blindly follow mechanics’ recommendations.
