Coolant Drain & Refill - How Many Quarts Drained from Radiator?

[rocky650]

I'm a DIYer and plan to do a coolant drain and refill on my daughters 2014 V6. From your experience, how many quarts of coolant drained from the radiator when you did a drain and refill?

I'm new here, but maybe I wasn't clear - I asked "how many quarts of coolant drained from the radiator". I didn't ask what's the capacity. Anyone who has done an actual coolant drain and refill would know that not 100% of the capacity is drained from the radiator.

Buy a gallon of straight coolant and a gallon of distilled water and fill it back up. If you need less complicated procedure, buy the 50/50 mix.
