Oil changes are routine, and there have been many threads on them. You're going to have to put on your big boy pants and learn to search here, there's a ton of information on all kinds of things, including both of these topics.

Posting a new thread for every issue you have, showing a clear lack of previously searching, and using vague terms without pics is a guaranteed way to ensure that you will get few responses to your questions, if any.

For example, I have no idea what a gear cover (frameboot) is. My assumption is that you're talking about the leather boot that covers the base of the gear shift knob, but I could be wrong.

I was a little confused about what a gear cover was until I did a Google image search..... Now I get it.

It's called the center console to be clear. Ebay would be the cheapest for those parts. If you want the part that holds the boot it's a trim plate.
