There is no dipstick for the gearbox.There is a nut on larger gearbox sump drivers side. To check levels have the car on a flat surface with engine runing then remove the nut . Oil should come out as nut is removed. This is also where you top up if this is not the case.

its a frustrating job tbh  i hated filling the box up after replacing my gearbox as there aint much room but i got half way through and used a bit of 3meter hosepipe and held one end in whilst a mate squeezed the atf bottle. we did half a liter at a time but it still frustrating,,, have fun !
