I have a 2013 Camery. How do you get all the original coolant out before putting in the new? Also, what color is the correct coolant?

Thanks Guys

The block may not have a drain plug. If you want it all out need to drain radiator and refill with distilled water. Then operate car to mix things and drain again. Do this a few times. Keep track of the quantity of liquid that come out as you want to put the same amount back in to know the system is filled.

What color is the coolant you have? Toyota brand is pink or red.
