The same as the Mark V IIRC, 3.5 litres if you have halogens and 5 litres with low fluid warning if you have bi-xenons.

Thanx Mav. That means I'd be a three and a halfer. Will break out my laminated labeler and placard the filler neck before I forget.

Picked up a bottle of this today for $6.00 from my friendly VW spare parts man...

I bought a bottle of VW windscreen washer fluid and foolishly mixed it as per the label for sunny conditions, ie 1 part fluid to 4 parts water. The guy at the parts counter did say use only a cap full. I should have listened to him as I now have a suds laden wash solution which spits rather than sprays on the window. I am now trying to get this crap out of the system so I can dilute it down with water.
