If your draining the entire system then you will need a 5 litre bottle for ready mix.

If the coolant is not that old, ie less than 3 years just collect it when you drain it from the radiator and re-use it.

If you're planning to just take the pump off and let the coolant pour all over the place, then your probably only going to need 3 litres of ready mix to refill the system.
