I have the right gearbox oil for my Toyota Levin, now this may sound stupid but i've never done it before, where exactly do i put it, obviously in the gearbox but how do i take the old stuff out etc

It is a AE111 levin

On the gearbox there is a drain hole at the bottom and a filler hole on the side. Take out the bottom bolt to drain the oil. Once it has all drained out, put it back it and take off the filler bolt on the side of the gearbox.

Get a short length of garden hose and put it in the filler hole then connect a small cone thingy (got mental block, cant remember what theyre called) to the other end. you can do this by reaching down through the engine bay. Pour the oil into the cone thingy and when the gearbox is full oil will start dripping out the filler hole. Once it has stopped dripping out the gearbox is full, put the filler hole bolt back in, and your done!

The word that aesc is looking for to describe his "Cone Thingy" is "Funnel"
