How much coolant is needed for flush?

Did search but can't find this...how much coolant do we need when we do the coolant flush?

Also, does Honda also sell the same coolant as Acura? What's it called? The last time I bought Acura coolant and it was branded Acura.

honda fluid is acura fluid for coolant
or you can use any good brand that specifically states approved for acura
2 gallons of 50/50 premix
Make sure to have the heater on hot to open its valve to drain contents

search here again for coolant drain and read the owner book on removing engine block drain- its important to get all the old stuff out
some find going thru the right front fenderwell best - remove tire and access bolt from there
its between the exhaust pipe and cv - not much room from underneath to get it
either buttefly valve on bolt or regular bolt

Follow Burping instruction in owner book- it will trick you and have a bubble if not done right
