>Buy them both. >Use the Hayes to get repair info on your Van. >Use the Bentley on your accelerator pedal as a cruise control. Oh the Haynes is terrible!!! The printing in mine is so bad that I can't read the schematics. I prefer the Bentley by leaps and bounds!!! The Haynes has a bad habit of getting to a point in a project and then telling you that this procedure is beyond the scope of the amateur mechanic. I'll be the judge of what i can do thank you... The Bentley - though not flawless - is much better though it assumes that you and I have access to all sorts of fancy VW only tools. Buy 'em both. Haynes is cheap (you get what you pay for) and the Bentley has nice pictures and diagrams.
