I'd also add some unsolicited advice from my brief 1 yr. experience working on my Vanagon. Haynes is far more direct in giving actual "how-to" instructions for many repairs and much maintenance. I wouldn't be without mine. However, the Bentley gives further info and photos - even if it is often poor on walking you thru the actual steps of repair. So I always refer to both.
