Part: Transmission fluid

Video tutorial
Detailed instructions - It is recommended to perform oil changes after starting and warming the vehicle for a few minutes. Locate the two fill and drain bolts (located at the top and bottom) of the gearbox. Unscrew both with a 12 mm spanner, starting with the upper bolt to allow air circulation and avoid vacuum, thus facilitating the oil drainage. Collect the used oil in a container and refit the lower bolt related to the drain hole. Finally, add 120 ml of gearbox oil and screw in the upper bolt.
