i used 8l. bought a 20l drum of j1.
first drain 4 plus litres
second drain 3 plus litres.
this was at 70000kms. 7 years in. i am the 3rd owner of the car.
drives much better.
fluid out was not pitch black, quite dark but definitely not the nice green it was in. i did not change the filters either.
Its now done almost 80000kms and the fluid is still a nice green tinge. maybe its just me but it seems to hold the torque better whilst consistently accelerating and keeping the revs past 4k.
there is a guide here in the DIY on how to do it.

You stated Green ? My CVT fluid has always been red when brand new
