Today, see how to replace the gear oil on a first-generation Citroen C3. First, lift the vehicle to access the gearbox; then unscrew the oil drain bolt using a ratchet spanner, as shown in the video. Allow the old oil to drain and open the fill cap located near the right front driveshaft; then, using a pump, insert the new gear oil, filling to the level (usually about one litre).

Check that the gear engagement is smoother.
