What type of engine oil is used for the Haval H6?
2 Answers
Haval H6 uses 5W40 engine oil. Engine oil, 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. The main functions of engine oil are to reduce friction and wear on moving parts, and to remove sludge (one of the functions of dispersants) and varnish (detergents) from the engine. Taking the Haval H6 2021 3rd Generation 2.0T Automatic Two-Wheel Drive Max as an example: The manufacturer of this car is Great Wall Motors, classified as a compact SUV, with a gasoline energy type, and a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
I've been driving a Haval H6 for over three years and have consistently used 5W-30 full synthetic oil as recommended by the maintenance manual. This oil performs well in all seasons, with stable performance in both winter and summer. I mainly use it for city commuting, with occasional highway trips, and the engine noise control is excellent. It's recommended to change the oil every 5,000 to 8,000 kilometers, depending on road conditions. If you frequently drive long distances, you can extend the interval slightly. I've tried several major brands and found little difference, but it's crucial to ensure the oil is genuine. When changing the oil, remember to replace the oil filter as well—otherwise, it's like not changing the oil at all. For older cars, keep an eye on oil consumption, as this model occasionally burns a bit of oil.
