It is common that not all the 11 L capacity drains out. Most that have done the change themselves measure just over 8L to maybe 9L, excluding those that run the extra 2L. Your dealer may have had to crack open that 10thL and add some of it, keeping the rest to charge someone else a 2nd time when another top-off is needed.

Usually between 9 and 10, plus another 2 if you do the track fill. It's not what the DCT will hold from completely dry, but what gets drained out when they change the fluid.
