Where is the transmission drain plug for Haval H6?
2 Answers
Haval h6 transmission drain plug is located at the bottom of the transmission housing. Function of transmission fluid: Transmission fluid is an oil product that keeps the shifting system clean, lubricates and prolongs the life of the transmission device. It has anti-low temperature properties and can provide extremely effective lubrication even at low temperatures, reducing oil loss under harsh operating conditions. Transmission fluid replacement: Transmission fluid does not need to be replaced frequently, but it should not remain unchanged forever. For modern automatic transmission vehicles, the replacement interval for transmission fluid is relatively long, generally around 70,000 kilometers of driving or approximately 4 years of vehicle use.
As an owner of a Haval H6, I've changed the transmission fluid myself several times. The drain plug is usually located at the bottom center of the transmission housing, and you'll need to lift the car to see it. The first time I looked for it, it took me quite a while because it's in a small recess near the rear drive shaft, close to the transmission oil pan area, and only becomes visible with a flashlight. You'll need the right socket wrench to loosen it to avoid stripping the threads. For safety, always use jack stands to stabilize the car when lifting it—don't rely solely on a jack, or accidents can happen. If you're not familiar with the process, it's best to check the diagrams in the user manual or refer to a video tutorial. Transmission maintenance is crucial for driving safety, so don't take it lightly. Regular fluid changes can prevent wear and tear—I recommend checking it once a year or every 20,000 kilometers. The cost is low, but the benefits are significant. While DIY saves money, beginners can easily make mistakes, and choosing the wrong spot may damage components. For peace of mind, it's safer to have a professional auto repair shop handle it.
