   First thing to check is the oil level.

   Whining like a dog box? Mine lasted 3 days after it started properly whining. Boxes are cheap, if its a VT you could stick a 1.4/1.1 box in if you were really stuck.
   
   You would probably be able to find a better condition box from a TU powered 206 or similar

   It's well bad sounds like something is dragging on ground just debating weather it worth fixing or getting rid?

   I didn't think the oil was acsessable?

    The oil drain is on the bottom of the gearbox near the end of the bellhousing facimg out towards the wheel rather than down, takes an 8mm square socket. The filler hole is about 6 inches above it but sticks out a bit further
