Put in 3.5 litres then turn the engine over to fill the new VW filter (I hope you are fitting!). Switch off then wait a few minutes for it to settle then top up with another half litre, should take about 4 litres. Oil sounds good.

I'm sure it will do but you probably paid £6 ish for it when one from the dealers is only £2.80 and it is pukka!
