Changing Gearbox Oil in a Fiat Grande Punto T-Jet

[Mr SFJ]

Hi,

Selecting first gear recently has got harder and harder, 90% of the time it's fine, but sometimes I need to put it into another gear, then go across to 1st to pull away, and before I send it to my local garage, I was going to try changing the gearbox oil (on 55,000 service schedule says 60,000) to see if it works.

I know what Oil I need, 75w85 and I need around 1.5 litres of it. My question is, where are the relevant plugs to do this, and do I need specialist tools to do it?

Cheers

SFJ

I did mine recently and it's just a alan key plug on the side of the gearbox
a bit awkward trying to get the oil in so I just used the extendable neck on the bottle to funnel it in

Brilliant, I'll buy the oil tonight on the way home
