the coolant capacity is fill it up so the water level is halfway up the plastic expansion bottle. have you got enough antifreeze in your car?

sorry didnt explain well, i need specifics. ill be flushing the system and so will need to make up the correct mixture of coolant and water to put back in. thats why i need to know the radiator capacity of my car. i read some where it ranges between 4.6 and 7ltrs for corsa b's.
