In this video, we will see how to change the gearbox oil of a Citroen C4 Picasso MK1: we open the front hood and lift the front part and remove the left front wheel, in order to access the drain plug; this plug is located under the left front part, but be careful not to confuse it with the engine oil plug! Unlock the plug and place a basin underneath to collect the fluid that will flow out: we will then dispose of it at an authorized center.

Change the plug and gasket and when all the fluid has drained, put it back in place.

The filling hole is located on the left side of the gearbox, between the front fender and the shock absorber, using an extension and a 19mm key. The filling is done very well with an oil injection syringe. The right amount is reached when some oil comes out of the top-up plug, then put the plug back in place and clean the area well with a brake cleaner.

Reassemble the wheel, the operation is complete.
