Change gearbox oil

take out the bottom drain plug and catch the oil in a pan. replace the plug and remove the filler plug about the middle 1/2 way up the side of the box. Use appropriate oil tool or extend the plastic hose of the oil bottle and squeeze in enough oil so that it drains back out the filler hole . This is the correct level for oil in a gear box.. Replace the filler plug

1992 Nissan Sentra E, 1.6 liter, 4 spd. manual trans., cant get filler plug loose for gear oil

Use more pressure, more elbow grease, put more force on it, use a bigger wrench or ratchet. Make sure its indeed the filler plug.

Transmission oil change

I take it you are talking auto transmission. Un do the drain plug in the box sump or if you do not have one remove the sump. replace filter in the sump . replace the sump with a new gasket and refill the sump. IF there is nothing wrong with the transmission and you only want to change the oil the best practice is to take it to a auto transmission shop where they can change the oil with the engine running and this changes the oil in the torque converter as well giving you a complete oil change. IT is more expensive as more oil is used but it changes all the oil and not just a part of the system. If your are talking manual, then remove the drain plug in the bottom of the gear box and when all the oil is out replace the plug tightly and remove the filler plug in the side of the box. Add oil until it runs out of the filler hole and when it stops replace the filler plug tightly. Use the correct grade of oils in both cases.

After changing drive shaft how do i put oil back in gear box

There should be a level check/fill plug about half way up on the transaxle, about even with where the axle shafts go into the transaxle. Take the plug out and refill with oil till it just starts to ooze out the hole, then replace the plug.

Hard to change gears in my v6 hyundia

First thing to check is oil-level in the gearbox. If far below the filler hole - refill and look for oil leaks around seals and in clutch housing.

If oil level is ok - it might need changing or when serviced recently, it might have been filled with the wrong oil.

Somewhere on the side of the gearbox there's a bolt with a seal ring. Usually this is the filler hole. Oil level check is simple, stick a finger in downwards. Should feel the oil level.

Gear boxes need the right oil viscosity and are quite sensitive - meaning changing gears gets difficult specially when cold.

Is it just open drain plug and refill or is there aproblem of air pockets the tranny is 4x4 with transfer box in same housing

there is no need to blead air from the gearbox or transfer, or diff's
first the transfer and gearbox are together but use their own oils and are changed seperatly
remove the drain plug to drain, refit then refill through the filler flug, the correct level is thesame as the filler so when starts draining from the filler hole its full. car needs to be level/flat ground when doing this.
if its auto there will be a tube for checking the level, at the back of the engine under the bonnet. auto trans oil does need the engine running to check for correct level.
remove drain plug with the engine off, refill approx same amount of oil in to the dipstick tube, then start the engine, select each gear for a couple of secconds then back to neutral, check level with engine still running. adjust level if needed.
