2 litres is plenty for an oil change, make sure you can undo the filler plug before removing the drain plug.
If you don't have a 17mm Allen key you can buy a socket like this. (Shop around as 1st link I found)

You should also change your gearbox oil every 40,000 - 60,000 miles.

it is far superior to gear oil it has
been used in manual gearboxes
for over 50 years volvo recalled
in the seveties for gearbox oil to
be drained flushed and refilled
with atf vauxhall use atf still to
eliminate the massive problem
with 75/80 causing gearbox failure
i do know what atf stands for and
i know the benefits of dextron three
over gear oil

a gearbox which to be honest is not to
difficult my initial post was using dextron
against hypiod ep80 ep90 what ever you want
to call it so basically research and choose for
yourself rather than listen to what you are told
you go to a parts shop main dealer you are served
by some one with no basic knowledge of what
part or component does or where it actually goes
