that is NOT the gear oil filler plug, its an inspection port. -
there are 4 grounding bolts directly behind the ashtray for various electrics. take out the centre trim - remove gear gaiter, hanbrake cover and a couple of torx screws either side.

trust me there is no clip, i have taken one of my car and one that was being broken. you just have to yank really hard with one hand and twist it at the base using the other! -

It just pulls off, it looks like it doesnt but it does. It's about a 10 second job. Make sure you clean all the crap out on the PCV housing, use an old toothbrush or something. -
you could find this information out for yourself with a quick search on euro car parts, but judging by how you have written your question your knowledge of cars appears to be limited at best so if would give it to a mechanic.

Where do I chuck the Anti-Freeze?
nick123 replied to Lewis_'s topic in Car Care, Maintenance and Mechanical
yes you put it in the coolant expansion tank, but it shouldn't need it - if the liquid is coloured it means it has antifreeze. -
