I have to say, don't do it... It almost looks like the guy I sold my headgasket blown v40 to could have written that. But this is an S.
That sounds like a lot of coolant. Big risk it could blow itself apart in a big way, if you drove it home. Mine used barely any coolant at all, in fact, I don't remember having to top it up once the coolant change had been done, properly.
I got a quote to fix it for about 5/6/700 (£ equivalent) but I decided it was a bit risky as the block might have gone too... The heater core was blowing out like warm air, that could have been something else, but I cut my losses and sold her. Surprised how long it went for like that, and it passed it's yearly test.. BUT i didn't want to risk the work.
