Today, you will learn how to change the gearbox oil on a Toyota car. We have taken the Toyota Corolla as an example, but the procedure is the same for all vehicles from the same manufacturer. First, open the filler cap of the gearbox housing (see video), then the drain plug.

Both holes need to be opened to avoid vacuum. Collect the used lubricant in a container and close the lower hole.

It is recommended to use original Toyota 75W90 manual gearbox oil. For filling the oil, it is advisable to use a manual pump. Insert THREE LITRES (3l) of oil and fill the housing through the filler hole with a hose.

Close it well and good luck.

How to Remove the Rear Seat of a Hyundai Tucson?

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
