Its good to hear that the gear changes are smooth, but lots of garages simply do what's known as a single drain and fill and call it a "gearbox service". Its not really a proper service doing a single drain and fill. They need to do multiple drain and fills to get the fluid clean. Its a bit like doing an oil change by draining 3 litres and leaving the rest... If they did a full fluid change, which would require approx 7-11 litres of fluid depending on condition, then that's fair enough.

Sump dump method is the DIYer on their drive approach. Trained/experienced techs at garages should always use a pump connected to the cooler hoses and change the lot in one go. Or do it using an EDT or similar machine.
