The transmission oil filler hole for Fengguang 580 is located under the black cap on top of the transmission. More information about Fengguang 580 is as follows: 1. Dongfeng Fengguang 580 is an SUV under the Dongfeng Fengguang brand, with a wheelbase of 2780mm and a body length of 4690mm, offering flexible space configurations with 5-seat and 7-seat options to meet diverse travel needs. 2. The Dongfeng Fengguang 580 features a 2+3+2 seating layout and comes equipped with front side airbags, tire pressure monitoring, traction control, electronic stability control, hill start assist, and other configurations.
For my Fengguang 580 manual transmission, the gearbox oil filler is located in the engine compartment. Open the cover and look towards the transmission—there's an aluminum square-head bolt near the left front wheel position. Use a 17mm hex wrench to unscrew it, and that’s the filling port. You’ll need a long funnel to pour the oil in, and keep adding until it overflows from the side inspection hole. Remember, don’t use regular engine oil as a substitute—only GL-4 75W-90 gear oil is compatible. After I changed it myself last time, shifting became noticeably smoother. If it were a CVT automatic transmission car, the process wouldn’t be this simple—you’d have to remove dozens of screws just to access the oil pan.
