Somebody who knows where this sensor is?

Sensor is in the washer bottle behind the bumper on passenger side I believe. May be able to get to it underneath

Do you even have a sensor? Do all models have them?

Nah its just certain models not all. Im not gonna say what models i believe it to be as ill probably get shot down in flames if i say the wrong ones.

My 2003 GSi has the a washer fluid level sensor.

I think it's just those with the gid or cid. Should display a picture when the fluid is low. Not all cars have them though.

Okey.
Mayby i havent got it then. I think thats a little bit weird. My vectra from 1990 had it an all newer cars i have driven had.
I have the cid display i think (Have the driving computer).

CID is the colour display usually paired up with sat nav. GID is the one that displays fuel stats etc.

If you have these 2 then i would think it should have a washer fluid sensor.

If you have a display that only tells you the time and radio station then it wont.

Open bonnet. Lift up battery cover, then remove the long tube that clips to the slam panel and goes down into the washer bottle. You can then look into the bottle from the top to see if you've got a float inside the bottle or not. You might need a torch or drain off some of the washer fluid to see it.
