Parts for your 2020 Haval H6-Oil filter

2020 Haval H6 oil filter — what it does and how to look after it

The 2020 Haval H6 definitely uses an engine oil filter. This is specified in Haval/Great Wall Motors factory documentation for the MY20 H6 and shown in mainstream parts catalogues used across Australia and New Zealand (e.g., Haval/H6 owner’s and service manuals, and aftermarket catalogues from Ryco, Wesfil/Cooper, and Mann‑Filter). Market variants of the 2020 H6 (turbo‑petrol 1.5T or 2.0T) run a full‑flow replaceable filter to keep the oil clean and the turbo happy.

What’s the point of an oil filter? It constantly traps metal particles, soot, and other nasties that build up in the oil from normal running. Clean oil flows properly, protects bearings and cam lobes, and cools and lubricates the turbocharger. A healthy filter helps stabilise oil pressure and reduces wear during cold starts—especially important on a modern, direct‑injected turbo engine like the H6.

As part of routine servicing, the oil filter on a 2020 Haval H6 should be replaced at every oil change. For local conditions, that typically means every 10,000–15,000 kilometres or 12 months (whichever comes first), with shorter intervals if the car sees lots of short trips, towing, high heat, dusty roads, or stop‑start traffic. Always follow the service schedule in the vehicle’s handbook for the exact interval and oil specification.

• Use a quality filter that matches your engine variant (some 2020 H6 engines use a cartridge element in a housing, others may use a spin‑on canister—check by VIN/engine code).
• For cartridge types: replace all O‑rings, lightly oil them, and tighten the housing to the torque listed on the cap or in the workshop manual.
• For spin‑on types: lightly oil the seal, fit hand‑tight plus the specified angle/turn, then recheck for any seepage after the first start.
• Warm the engine, drain fully, fit the new filter, refill with the correct grade/spec oil, start and check oil pressure, then inspect for leaks.
• Reset the service reminder and dispose of used oil and filters responsibly.

Choosing the right filter and fresh, spec‑correct oil keeps the H6 smooth, efficient, and reliable. It’s a simple bit of maintenance that pays off in long engine and turbo life—and fewer surprises down the track.

Popular questions about 2020 Haval H6 oil filters

What oil filter type does a 2020 Haval H6 use?
The 2020 H6 uses a full‑flow engine oil filter. Depending on the exact engine (1.5T or 2.0T) and market, it may be a cartridge element in a housing or a spin‑on canister. Check the owner’s manual, the cap label on the housing, or your parts supplier using the VIN to ensure the correct fit.

How often should the oil filter be changed on a 2020 H6?
Replace it with every oil change—generally every 10,000–15,000 km or 12 months in AU/NZ conditions. If the vehicle does short trips, towing, dusty work, or lots of stop‑start, bring that interval forward. Always follow the factory schedule for your specific engine.

Any tips to avoid leaks after an H6 oil filter change?
For cartridge filters, renew all O‑rings, oil them, and tighten the cap to the specified torque. For spin‑ons, oil the gasket and fit to the recommended turn angle after first contact. After refilling oil, start the engine, confirm oil pressure, and check around the filter and sump for any weeps.
