How do I check gearbox oil level on 1.2 16v 6 speed gearbox. Thanks
 
Does any know how much these gearboxes hold and what type of oil to do oil change ?
 
Does it matter what brand is used as long as its 75w-80 as I am looking at changing the oil tomorrow and I might not be able to find that brand local.
 
Any chance on uploading those pictures please as I have had a look and I cant find the drain bolt. The only ones I can find is a allen key bolt and about 3 inches lower and 13mm bolt, both are on the front.
 
Here you go guys. Location on my 1.4 6-speed (y)

Ah, I think I see it now. So it's a sunken hex, like the filler plug? Must say it is very obscure. No wonder everyone had such a problem finding it. Many thanks for posting the pics.
