^^ +1. I drain mine and add 6.00-6.25L and it generally sits at 3/4 full - full. Then I drive for a few trips and add a small volume of oil as needed. You'll never drain ALL the oil, but it should be pretty close. I don't recall offhand which side of the pan the drain is, but if you use ramps and it's not at the rear of the pan, you won't get all the oil from it.

It is VERY unlikely you'll have a liter or more of oil in left in the engine though, unless you have some sort of blockage at the drain or something.
