If like my VW Sharan, the engine layout is the same (2003, 1.8T - South African) then you will find this located towards the left back end of the engine compartment (US spec should be on opposite side).

To get to it, remove the engine cover by unclipping it (pull upward with steady force). Then lean forward and look under the "wiper bulk head" towards your left hand side - you will see a little bottle (+/-500ml).

Again, VW designers are not the best for maintenance-ergonomic so it is not easy to just top it up. You will need a flexible hose / tube to top up the fluid.

Lastly - I suggest you blead your entire brake fluid system +/- 36 monthly for it to be effective as the fluid lines can become "spongy".

Hope this helps,
