When you filled it, was the 'need fluid' light on?
In my E46 325i, when that light would come on it would take a full gallon of fluid to fill it. I love that BMW calibrated it that way.
In my 135i, it doesn't quite take a full gallon, but most of it should go in.
When you're filling it go slow as it needs time to settle down into the reservoir.
If you fill too fast it will start to overfill well before it's actually full.
Maybe you stopped too soon?
If you've got headlight washers and use your fluid generously, the system can really suck down the fluid.
I just use it with quick blasts of fluid instead of holding the lever in and going full stream for a long while.
Short bursts limits the fluid use.
