Yes, you can not get it all out.I've heard you can't get all the fluid out of it.
2 quarts (1.89L) is what will remain in DCT after physically draining as much fluid as humanly possible.

I take it your a biker, good eye.Hello Manofwar,
Is that the tail end of a GPZ1100 in the one photo?
That is the Sigala wing.Nice wing. What wing is it GM or other?
Did you buy that off of some dude named Cam? You out bid me by $25...That is the Sigala wing.
The C8 came from factory with 11 liters of transmission fluid. When I got the car I added the 2 extra liters that was recommended although I never tracked the car. While doing the drain and fill I removed 10 liters of fluid. As was mentioned there is still 2 liters of fluid in the DCT that can't be removed. That means I am missing 1 liter of fluid that I believe was drained out by a technician at GM when I took the car in to get the DCT canister filter replaced last year. They never performed the service (as they said they needed to keep the car overnight) but the technician spent 2 hours in the back with the car on the hoist. He wasn't qualified enough to perform the transmission service (the head technician was on vacation). Would you guys suggest that I put 1 more liter in?I've heard you can't get all the fluid out of it.
Ya, that makes sense. If he didn't know you added the extra 2 he may think it was over filled and never topped it up when he replaced he canister. But I bet he charged you for it!The C8 came from factory with 11 liters of transmission fluid. When I got the car I added the 2 extra liters that was recommended although I never tracked the car.

Why are the threads chewed up on the drain plug?Just completed the Transmission Fluid change. Removed 10 litres, 2 of those were the 2 extra litres I installed last year. The transmission was short 1.5 Litres.

Sorry, but isn't the 2 extra litres to be added only if you track the car?Ya, that makes sense. If he didn't know you added the extra 2 he may think it was over filled and never topped it up when he replaced he canister. But I bet he charged you for it!
If you are not going to track the car then why bother with the extra.
I think it was a cost saving measure by GM, but ya, it's only required if you track the car. It can't hurt to add it though. I didn't and won't.Sorry, but isn't the 2 extra litres to be added only if you track the car?
I can't imagine it being a problem (although I'm no mechanic), but right now his car is sitting with 1 litre more than it came from the factory.
That was disturbing to me as well.Why are the threads chewed up on the drain plug?
Yes, Cam was his name.
I even made a cover for the wing.
Yes I had a M license before my G, and I had both 1983 and 1984 model years GPz1100's. Wicked street bike in its time.I take it your a biker, good eye.
