It empties a lot quicker if you wash your screen when the headlights are on.

I've noticed this too and I think prob is that not enough fluid is going in as the gauze prevents all the fluid going in in first place. This means the bottle never actually gets full, thus appearing to empty quickly....
Just topped up again today and tried tapping the mesh gauze intermittently as filled reservoir up and this time it nearly took a whole bottle of Audi screen wash.
Try the above and see if you can get more in.
If be interested to know if anyone else has similar prob as think is a design fault in the washer filler aperture?
