What type of transmission oil does the Haval H6 use?
2 Answers
The Haval H6 uses the original 75W-90 specification transmission oil. The transmission oil for the Haval H6 should be replaced at 6,000 kilometers, 52,000 kilometers, and 100,000 kilometers, and then every 50,000 kilometers or three years thereafter, whichever comes first. Different models have different replacement cycles. Below are the replacement cycles for transmission oil: Manual transmission: Manual transmission oil is generally recommended to be replaced every three years or approximately 100,000 kilometers. Automatic transmission: Automatic transmission oil is generally recommended to be replaced every two years or approximately 40,000 kilometers. Continuously variable transmission (CVT): CVT transmission oil is generally recommended to be replaced every two years or approximately 60,000 kilometers. The methods for replacing transmission oil are as follows: Unscrew the drain plug at the bottom of the transmission to drain the oil, then refill. Remove the transmission oil pan directly to drain and refill: This method is more thorough than the previous one, as it removes impurities from the bottom of the oil pan. Use a circulation machine to replace automatic transmission oil: Dynamic oil replacement with an intelligent circulation machine can filter and clean sludge and impurities inside the automatic transmission.
When I drove the Haval H6 2nd-gen manual transmission before, I checked this. The maintenance manual specified GL-4 grade 75W-90 gear oil. However, there are significant differences between model years. For example, early manual transmission models could use this specification, but some owners of the 1.5T version reported smoother operation with 75W oil. Actually, the most reliable method is to check your vehicle's owner's manual - the parts specification table on the last page will definitely have the correct information. If you can't be bothered to check, just provide your VIN to the 4S parts department - their system will instantly tell you the exact specification, and you can ask about labor costs for the oil change while you're at it. Remember not to use automatic transmission fluid improperly - incorrect viscosity can damage synchronizers.
