Haval H6 oil dipstick is located on the inner side of the engine. To check the oil level: Locate the oil dipstick. The oil dipstick is usually located near the engine, either on top or on the side. A distinctive feature of the dipstick is that it has a pull ring, making it easy to identify. Pull out the oil dipstick. Checking the oil level: To check the oil level, ensure the vehicle is cooled down. If you have just driven the car or the engine is running, checking the oil level will not be accurate. Clean off any oil residue. After pulling out the dipstick for the first time, wipe it clean with a tissue, then reinsert it. Pull out the oil dipstick a second time to check the oil level on the dipstick.
The oil dipstick for my Haval H6 is located on the passenger side of the engine bay, easily visible once you pop the hood—it's that small bright yellow ring. It sits right next to the air filter box, inserted into a silver metal tube. Before checking, make sure the car is parked on level ground and turned off for five minutes. Pull it out, wipe it clean, reinsert it, and only on the second pull will you see the actual oil level. The dipstick has two small notches at the end—the ideal oil level should be between them, slightly toward the upper mark. Last time during maintenance, I noticed the mechanic didn’t push it all the way in, causing the reading to show low. Reinserting it properly fixed the issue. The design is actually quite user-friendly, much easier to locate compared to other car models.
Having owned the Haval H6 for over three years, I check the engine oil every time I top up the windshield washer fluid. Near the black plastic cover on the right side of the engine, there's a small pull ring with a yellow circle—that's the one. Remember to measure when the engine is cold for accuracy; checking it before my daily commute works best for me. Pull it out, wipe off the old oil mark, slowly reinsert it all the way, then pull it out again to check. The ideal oil level is in the upper-middle range of the textured area. Last winter, I noticed the oil level was low and almost thought it was burning oil, but it turned out to be due to the parking slope—rechecking on level ground showed it was normal. I recommend checking once a month; the yellow pull ring is very noticeable.
