It is so easy to do all you need is a 17mm hex and a couple of torx bits (be careful as the one on the top is quite large (t60 from memory?). Also need the 2 gaskets and an o-ring. I have previously done a write up on how I did it.

Best bit of advice I can give you having spent considerable time here is to NOT cycle the gearbox through P, R, N and D for 2 seconds but rather do the first dump and refil and then leave it a week or so to stick a couple hundred miles in. It’s clear that putting the vehicle into gear for 2 secs or even 10 does not circulate the fluid through the box.
