Full Procedure:
Tools Required:
Hex Bits, bucket to drain the fluid, funnel with a hose attached to it, 4 jackstands and a jack.
Jack the car up on a level ground both front and rear.
Open fill bolt usually a Hex bolt or a 17mm.
Place bucket underneath drain hole
Open drain hole.
Attach your filling device to fill hole
Flush some fluid thru till you see golden takes like 100mls tops to get the result.
While the old fluid is flushing and your waiting for the last drops to come out, clean the bolts with a rag and inspect for shavings.
Close the drain hole and fill it leaks out fill hole.
Close fill hole.
Double check if both the bolts are torqued properly.
Lower car. Go for drive, shift thru all gears come back home and inspect for any leaks.
From the way you have posted, Im sure your gonna have to invest in tools. Hence why you should go to a mechanic or ask a local DIYer
Jackstands are not cheap..... dont cheap out on safety... for the price of this you could get your fluid changed at a local DIYer or even some mechanics.
Also remember to put the old used oil into a sealed bottle and recycle it at your closest recycler. Google oil disposal or recycling around your place. I usually wait till I have 20L and do a trip.
