bottom of the radiator is a small white plastic tap, undo and drain.

Probably worth doing a flush at the same time to clear out any deposits and cruft.

7.1 litres according to the online workshop manual here

Yes, Toyota should have the correct coolant.

If you are just doing the Radiator you won't need quite that much. Toyota coolant all the way.

To drain the rad, remove the underliner (few bolts) the tap is obvious on bottom lefthand (passenger side) side of the rad.

(On second thoughts, ya may be able to do it without removing the undertray? But i did as changing radiator too.)
