Hi mate had same problem a few months ago. It is located behind front near side (passenger) wheel trim on the side of the gear box. It is a round plug with a quite large alen key fitting. You have to put the car on axel stands on level ground. Remove the n/s wheel and plastic wheel arch liner to see the gear box filling plug. Remove the plug with an alen key (maybe 8 or 10mm) and fill with gearbox oil until it is level with bottom threads of the plug (do not overfil).

Has your gearbox lost all of it's oil? are the gears noisey or whirring at high speed? Is your clutch slipping? cos it could be that you have a hole in your gearbox (very common problem on mk4's ) If it has done more than 60k and your gearbox number starts DUU or DUW (can be located on white sticker near spare wheel or top of gearbox behind green/black inspection plug) then i would wager the gearbox has a hole in it!

Where do you put the gearbox fluid in a vw t5?

To add gearbox fluid in a VW T5, locate the gearbox oil filler plug, typically found on the side of the transmission. Use a funnel or a fluid pump to pour the appropriate gearbox oil into the filler hole until it starts to slightly overflow, indicating that it is full. Always ensure the vehicle is on a level surface and consult the owner’s manual for the correct type of fluid and capacity specifications.
