Kyle, did you ever find a solution to get all the issue of not getting al the 10L of coolant out?
I also tried to find the part that is illustrated in Vida. Would help if the named the part they are referring to. I will look closer at the coolant system overview map in Vida to try and figure it out. I got a tip in another forum to dismount the hose off the radiator. He mentioned that an air pocket stops the radiator from draining. Also when the engine is cold the thermostat will be closed and am speculating on how much of the fluid that will stay in a section of the system.
