When you go to Halfords they have a thingie that tells you what oil you need

Though, as I am a nice knowlegable guy I can tell you that you need 2 litres of EP 80w manual transmission oil on an F 20 and probably the same on an F 16.

Dunno how to get the oil out really... Probably best way to do it is by taking the diff plate off, then it will all come out at onece
