Hi beans and welcome

The gearbox fluid change is covered in the maintenance guides

there is no dipstick because it is supposed to be a "sealed for life" unit, although we recommend changes

You need to remove the sumps

The gearbox should hang on to first when cold to enable the cats to warm up (for emissions purposes) but it does sound like you would benefit from a change

may be worth just checking the fluid level in the box first, but if you feel the need to replace the fluid and filter see this link for info
