The bottle lives just behind the front bumper, but I'll have to pass as to exactly where the level sensor is.  :-[ Remove the screws at the top of your grille & you can get to the bottle then.

IIRC Vx normally use a sensor something like these (http://images.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=http://www.gentechsensors.com/new_images/Series%2520Pics/lds_series.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.gentechsensors.com/products.asp&usg=___6clTp7WMtOjGcfhrykpD5ppmhw=&h=150&w=150&sz=3&hl=en&start=19&um=1&tbnid=WZtY4ezKUt2-bM:&tbnh=96&tbnw=96&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dlevel%2Bsensor%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26cr%3DcountryUK%257CcountryGB%26sa%3DN) LS & LDS
