On a standard tranny there is no reservoir. On an automatic tranny it is internal to the tranny. The fluid resides in the transmission pan.
The 2000 VW Golf transmission can be filled through the transmission dipstick tube. Using a funnel is recommended, to limit spilling.

# Check the level of the transmission fluid with the engine idling and the transmission in Park. # The transmission dipstick is marked with a max and min level. # The fluid level should be between these marks. # If it is low, top up the fluid (through the dipstick tube) to the max level (bottles of transmission fluid have an 'anteater' spout to make this easy). # If the fluid is a dark brown or black colour you should organise getting it changed and replaced with fresh fluid; this will greatly extend the life of the transmission. # Fluid in good condition should be ruby red.
The 2005 VW Golf Transmission (automatic at least) is a sealed system, and is designed to be sealed for life. If you do need to add fluid, you need to open up the transmission.

Cost should be around ~$400 (Canadian) <><><><><> If it is designed to be sealed for life, then just adding fluid would not be a good idea because you also need to fix what's leaking, hence the recommendation to take it to a shop.
