The financial restraints brought about by retirement last year has pushed me out of the arms of my local Toyota dealer and into now doing the servicing of my Auris (2012 1.6 Valvematic) myself. Fortunately, I have a friend with a big garage and ramps and managed to change the spark plugs, engine Oil, all filters, plus front discs/pads last year. This time around, it seems that the gearbox Oil and coolant also need to be changed and if i'm being honest, I'm unsure as to how to go about either on my Auris. I like to think that i'm a fairly competent at most things mechanical but as I don't even know where the gearbox drain and filler bolts are, I really don't want to break anything or otherwise mess things up. If anyone here can advise me as to how to go about changing the gearbox Oil and coolant, i'd be really grateful.
