Hello,


I am facing a puzzling problem : after disconnecting the bottom radiator hose on the left (facing the car) as indicated on the workshop manual and waiting a couple of minute , I intended to refill the system but I only put 4 liters of the 50 50 mix LR coolant and water ! The overall content must be 13 L !!! Where is the trouble ? What must I disconnect among the various hoses to get a good drain of the system (I know I will never get the whole content) ? The heater radiator has no tap and the workshop manual is false indicating I must open the heater...
Car was cold (important ?) and slightly tilting to the front.
Thank you.
