Replacing the oil in the gearbox, especially in the case of an automatic transmission, will greatly benefit the operation of the transmission itself, and the shifts will certainly become smoother; essentially, it involves draining the used oil through the designated drain plug located at the bottom of the gearbox and then inserting the new fluid through the tube where the oil level dipstick is housed, located near the engine air filter box; once the new fluid is inserted, start the engine and engage all gears to circulate it through all actuators.

Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat.
