Default Coolant issue

Any possible theories why I can't get more than 3 litres of coolant into the 200 q, at the last flush.

Inserted hose in top opening of engine and it came out the thermostat outlet.

Had Heater set to warm so hopefully this also circulated.

Inserted hose in top of radiator and it emptied thru lower outlet.


Is it possible there is a major blockage somewhere or does the water flow indicate otherwise ?

Could PO have blocked of part of radiator ?

Still 5 litres !!!!! missing, somethings up, thinking it must be water left in engine I reflushed and topped up with 80% coolant, but big worries about missing amount. .........
