   There is another Haynes that DOES cover watercooled. It is published in
England and is carried by busdepot.com and maby a few other vendors here.
About $30 as I recall.
   The "Bible" is the Bentley Manual, about $80 and for what is in this
"Official VW Shop Manual" double the price would still be cheap considering
the price of shop labor. Mine has saved me THOUSANDS!! Even has a Westy
Camper section!
   I have had both for about 5 years. The Haynes still looks new but the
Bentley is bent, beat-up and waterproofed from the grease and oil smears.
  Get the Bentley.

Hi there.
I just purchased my first vanagon after 15 years of
air cooled vw's, the last one was a '66 westfalia. Now
I am looking for a good service or repair manual since
i need to do some work on the front end and the drive
shafts. Any suggestions which is the one to get? So
far I only saw the Haynes book, which does not include
the wasserboxer.
Thanks, Joern
