Oh, how so? Please elaborate. Tell us all how this is 100% without a single doubt all my fault? As others have commented, FCP Euro isn't infallible. Maybe you're the FCP Euro shill lurking around with 2 posts lol who joined this forum yesterday probably just so you could comment on this thread. Hilarious.

I just did this on a '12 Base today and the amount to flush until clean ATF emerges from the cooler line is the same for a Turbo: it took 14 liters to flush until clean ATF was coming out of the top cooler line: 6 to refill when draining the pan and removing the filter; then 6 to flush from the cooler lines doing 2 interactions of 3 liters each, then one final 2 liter flush from the cooler line with 2L added.
The Base model is way harder to do than the V8s because the engine is shorter and the transmission is further forward as a result, so the front three bolts are tougher to access.

I do have to say off the bat that I tried leaving this information in a respectable manner as a review on their product page. I couldn't believe this but my review was deleted/removed. Not once, but twice! So they don't want any potential customers knowing the truth behind this "packaged deal" apparently. That part really shocked me. It makes me question the authenticity or validity of customer reviews on the actual websites now. I mean, I guess I didn't fully trust them before vs. for example a more neutral platform like I don't know, Amazon or something. Just pretty terrible that they removed my comment entirely, no?

Since your post they have kept 3–4 star reviews noting the shortage of fluid, etc.

Maybe. Or just not removing reviews. It's shady. They clearly don't like honesty or transparency and try to use negative reviews to improve themselves as a company. They're sticking their head in the sand singing "la la la we do nothing wrong I can't hear you!" with that kind of behavior.

Yes, you gotta keep up with that. They shorted me on an return item but I didn't chase it as it was only $7.00.
Ever since then, I make it so professionally packed that when they receive it, it looks like new parts that's over documented. I include all paperwork adn a typed letter detailing everything returned and any notes.

You've got to pack things nice. Not just FCP it's everything.... your package first goes through a full on NFL field tackle. Then gets checked several times on NHL rink, then picked up by the most clumsy worker only to (oops, I dropped this one too) drop your box. Finally, the delivery person practicing for FIFA, kicks it to the door of destination.
So, pack ish as if it's getting dropped from the Grand Canyon, always.
