I haven't changed the tranny fluid on a vanagon yet, but if its hard to
get to, you could stop by an some hardware store and pick up a drill
pump. Its just a pump that you attach to your hand drill, and has a
length of hose going in and out.

I used this to pump tranny fluid into the tranny and dif of a bimmer
that there was no way any kind of bottle was going to get to the fill
hole.
