Unless you have a gearbox leak, the level should be ok.

How do you even change the gearbox oil?

I had a look and couldn't even find a drain plug or fill point.

Surely it must need changing at some stage?

erm open the black plastic cover that is on the front there is 2 plugs bottom one to drain it, and the top to fill. when the fluid poors out then its full. but make sure that the car is on flat ground.
