Default Coolant Capacity
What's coolant capacity of C5? I'm doing a coolant change and it sucked down 10 qts of distilled water before I drained. Only drained 4 qts of coolant the first time around. Thanks.

Capacity of the cooling system is 12.6 quarts. Use a 50/50 mix of DEX-COOL coolant and water (preferably distilled).

A drain and fill will not change all the fluid.
