Bentley used to have a CD version of the paper repair manual,
but it broke when MS went to IE  5 or 6. It was pretty hokey.
Requiring a loopback IP interface for IE.

Now look closely.  They have REPAIR manual in paper.  The
CD is "Official Factory Microfiche..." and is currently
unavailable.  This is not exactly the same as the repair
manual.  They will use eBahan software instead of the
IP loopback trick they used earlier.  If (when) it works,
it might be equivalent to the paper manual, but you won't
want to get the CD greasy....

When MS broke the CD version of the manual, Bentley said that
at that point they had lost the right from VW to produce a
new version of the repair manual.  That still seems true.
(This was Vanagon specific.)  So they gave me (another) paper
copy of the repair manual to replace the broken CD version.

You want the paper Bentley for REPAIR  and the ETKA program
for PARTS.   Oh, and you want a VANAGON to work on.
