How many liters of coolant are needed for a Mistra coolant replacement?

Approximately 3.5 liters of coolant are required for a Mistra coolant replacement. Coolant replacement method: Before completely replacing the coolant, conduct a thorough inspection to check for any signs of leakage or cracks in the pipelines, with particular attention to the five-way water pipe. The five-way pipe is named for its five connecting interfaces to various parts, and the coolant flows through this pipe before being distributed to different sections of the car to perform its function. If there is any leakage of coolant in this area, the hose should be replaced or the interface re-secured as needed. Drain the old coolant, then flush the liquid channels with clean water. Add clean water to the coolant reservoir and continue filling the reservoir until water flows continuously through the engine cooling system. Start the engine and let it idle for 3 to 5 minutes to circulate the water. Initially, the water draining from the reservoir may have a faint pink tint. Continue adding clean water until clear water flows out. Remember to disconnect the heater hose and drain the water from the heater core. After draining for about an hour, add the new coolant through the radiator hose to allow it to flow quickly into the radiator. Then, add another container of coolant to the reservoir until it is nearly full. Start the engine and let it run for about 10 minutes. During this time, the coolant level will drop slightly as air is purged from the cooling system. Top up the coolant to the "MAXT" mark on the reservoir.
