Aren't you just supposed to use the dipstick built into the cap of the reservoir?

I've forgotten what the reservoir looks like in detail, but generally speaking the fluid should be up to the "joint" and maybe a small way up the front end of the sloping "top" - either way I'd expect to see fluid up in the filter screen when you take the top off. VAG does tend to use the "joint" as the middle between the MIN and MAX levels on the reservoirs - just like on the coolant header tank.
