As always, it doesn't matter if I use my AAvantage or LANPASS number on a reservation, I unable to select premium seats on LA.com with V fares (I can only select regular seats). I may have to call LA but last time it took a couple of calls until I found a competent agent, most of the time I receive the "you can do it at T48" or "those seats are not available".
You need to have your LANPASS on the reservation to be able to try for an upgrade. Once you have the business BP (or not) you can request to have it changed to AAdvantage
