The level sensor is in the top of the radiator. The sensor for the gauge is the little one in the rear iron. The sensor for the ECU is in the back of the waterpump.

The "Low Coolant" sensor is installed at the top of the radiator, near the filler neck. Item 7

the one i think you might be talking about is depending on the year.. one it might be under neath the Intake Manifold.. or in my Complete overhauld book it says its by the oil filter.. ? i think the one in the book is for a s5 and mine is an s4 and its underneath the intake manifold right behind the air pump.
