I'll need your VIN to determine this.

Ok, so it's standard tank and not a pouch, so at factory these are about 3 litres. They only need topping up when you get the additive low warning, and then you have a bit of time to get it done. The engine ECU determines the amount in the additive tank based on the mileage done, mileage remaining until next service (and on this basis determines when the light is put on). The amount remaining in the tank is not a physical measurement, but a calculation. If it thinks there is not enough additive in the tank to make it until the next service, it will throw the light on earlier than say if the expected service interval is only a few thousand miles away for example.
