There is a drain bung at the bottom and the yellow wing nut on the top is the filling point and dipstick.
Not easy to get at and if the oil is clean I wouldnt bother changing it as is only lubricates the gears at the back of the s/c unit and the oil is expensive.
Top it up if its a bit low.

That drain bung is a bitch to get to.

If you buy the genuine toyota stuff you get a syringe with it, so you suck the old oil out with it and push the new oil back in with it.

In saying that, the filling hole is a bitch to get at also. Specially if its on tight
