How to replace gearbox and transmission oil

Model: Honda Civic - Years 1996-2001
Part: Gear oil

The guide will illustrate the various steps to carry out maintenance of the gearbox oil. First we put a flat container in correspondence with the bolt that we are going to unscrew, as shown in the video and we unscrew it making all the oil come out. To introduce the new oil we can use a funnel with the narrow part extended by a flexible tube, so that it can access the filling point, which as we can see from the image is not easily accessible. We pour the new oil, before re-screwing the cap, we brush it for safety and check that there are no ferrous residues in it.
