From memory, it's a simple job. Nothing difficult at all |

3 bolts at the top, flip up back seats , find the 3 bolts just behind the back doors, quite a quick job tbh.

I’ve just had to do mine - CVT type for adaptive dynamics. The oil reservoir dropped off one and within a few miles, all the oil was gone leaving lots of bounce and noise.
