A late answer ;-) About 2 liters. I just ordered 3 liters of DOT4.

My dealership told me they use two 12 ounce bottles to flush the brake system when changing brake fluid every two years on the M5. I bought one liter of Castrol SRF and hope that will be enough. When I change my brake lines I'll try to drain the system fully and measure how much there is.
