I agree that both Bentley and Haynes are complimentary. I also have the "Vanagon Workshop Manual" http://www.busdepot.com/details.jsp?partnumber=VW82WH I usually read them all for the procedure that I am about to attempt because they all have some information/tips to offer. E.g. the Haynes says the coolant bleed valve spigot on 1.9 are fragile and to be careful when removing the coolant hose from it. I read that after I broke mine removing the hose ;o(
To my knowledge those are the only three manuals available. The other source of invaluable information is the net. The network of altruistic Vanagon & Westy owners willing to post procedures and provide advice is truly amazing, and invaluable.
