Coolant Flush

... you should also disconnect the hose that goes into the thermostat and then raise the front of the car a bit so that the three radiators can fully drain.

The car is a 2000 Boxster S and from what I understand there should be about 18 litres in the system. what am I missing?
P.S. I disconnected the 2 big hoses as part of the draining and the drain screw.

I will check tonight If I am correct I did disconnect that hose also and I raised the car I did get some extra but not nearly enough of what should be in there.
