What type of engine oil is suitable for the third-generation Haval H6?
1 Answers
Haval H6 uses 5W40 engine oil. Engine oil, also known as motor oil or engine lubricant, is a substance enhanced with additives in base oil, primarily containing anti-wear additives, detergents, dispersants, and multi-grade viscosity index improvers. Precautions when adding engine oil: Choose engine oil based on the requirements of the engine. Do not use high-grade oil in a lower-performance engine, nor use low-grade oil in a high-performance engine. Select oil that matches the engine. Multi-grade oil should be chosen as it offers advantages such as fuel efficiency, long service life, and high efficiency, providing better protection for the engine. The oil level should be slightly below the mark on the dipstick. Do not overfill. Excessive oil not only increases the crankshaft's rotational resistance but also reduces the engine's output power. Moreover, excess oil may enter the combustion chamber, leading to oil burning, blue smoke emission, and increased fuel consumption. Select oil with different viscosity based on the engine's operating condition. If the engine is in good condition and the seasonal temperature is low, use oil with lower viscosity. If the engine is severely worn and the seasonal temperature is high, use oil with higher viscosity.
