Mine's an 06 CDI. Read jcyuhn's advise below.

Then go to your local auto parts store, truck stop, or wherever and purchase a 2 gallon container of Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) for about 10 bucks. Use your new funnel to fill the adblue tank with the DEF.
I was in a small Walmart store in Missouri the other week shopping automotive supply prices, when a trucker came in and bought the (2) containers of the DEF formula in stock. They were $12 and change per (64 oz.?) container/bottle.
