Just when I'm about to throw the towel in, people come on here and give me the courage to carry on
Should've realised the drive position on the selector but can't think with heavy traffic going past the car.
I'll let you know how I get on
Thanks
Ian
PS - Don't be too disappointed but bought the wife a Toyota IQ over the weekend At least she can get to work in a quirky little Noddy car while I work on the real one

The filler plug is easiest to reach with the selector in drive.
The plug is 8 mm square; I used a door lock shaft with a nut welded onto it.
A rough check of the transmission oil level, even when parked and at cold, is to look inside the filler hole with a torch to see if the yellow maze sits in the oil.
If it's dry, the level is too low.
If it sits in the oil, then there's enough of it.
Best wishes.
