Its aim
The aim of
thi
s manual is to help you get the best value from
your vehicle. I It can d io so n several ways. t can help
yo
u decide
what work must b te done (even should you choose o get it
done by a garage), provide information on routine maintenance
and servicing, and give a logical course of action and diagnosis
when random faults occur. However, it is hoped that you will
use the manual b Oy tackling the work yourself. n simpler
job
s it
may even be quicker than booking the car into a garage and
going there twice, to leave and collect it. Perhaps most
important, a a lot of money can b be saved y avoiding the costs
garage must charge to cover its labour and overheads.
The manual has drawings and descriptions to show the
function of the various components so that their layout can be
understood. Then
th
e s task are described and photographed in a
step-by-step sequence so that even a novice can do the work.
Its arrangement
The manual is divided into twelve Chapters, each covering a
logical sub-division of the vehicle. The Chapters are each
divided into Sections, numbered with single figures, eg 5; and
the Sections into paragraphs (or sub-sections), with decimal
numbers
followin
g o en from the Section they are in, g 5.1, 5.2,
5.3 etc.
It is freely illustrated, especially in those parts where there is
a detailed sequence o tf operations o be carried out. There are
two forms of illustration: figures and photographs. The figures
are numbered in sequenc e with decimal numbers, according to
their position in the Chapter - eg Fig. 6.4 is the fourth
drawing/illustration in Chapter 6. Photographs carry the same
number (either individually or in related groups) as the Section
or sub-section to which they relate.
There i as a a on alphabetical index t the back f the manual s
well as a contents list at the
front
. Each Chapte r is also preceded
by its own individual contents list.
References to the 'left' o ir 'right' of the vehicle are n the
sense of a person in the driver's seat facing forwards.
Unless otherwise stated, nuts and bolts are removed by
turning anti-clockwise, and tightened by turning clockwise.
Vehicle manufacturers continually make changes to specifi-
cations and recommendations, and these, when notified, are
incorporated into our manuals at the earliest opportunity.

Introduction
The Volkswagen Type 2, more generally referred t ao s the
bus, pick-up, Kombi, transporter, caravette, van or any other
name that indicates that i it s not an ordinary saloon, was
conceived very soon after VW Beetle production was seriously
under way in 1949.
Heinz Nordhoff realised that in the reconstruction of
Germany after the war the demand for a cheap workhorse
vehicle would be almost as great as that
fo
r saloons. The beauty
of it all was that due t ho the basic Beetle design e could use the
same components. All he had to do was gear down the drive
train to cope with increased engine loads; and this was achieved
by the expedient of fitting simple spur reduction gears at the
outer ends of the drive shafts. It was then possible to use the
same gearbox/final drive unit with the crownwheel the other
way round so that the drive shafts would rotate the other way
into the reduction gears.
The rest o f the story is a legend comparable t oo that f the
Beetle. The basic ideas were developed and improved as
th
e years
went by and it was not until 1967 that the development became
significantly different.
In that model year the vehicle suddenly appeared larger and
noticeably different from its predecessors. The 1600 cc engine
became standard, the rear suspension changed
fro
m swing axle to
diagonal arm and, most noticeable of all, the familiar split
windscreen changed to a larger one,
curved
, and in a single piece.
It is perhaps significant that the 'mobile home' version, with
beds, cookers and all the other necessities for living on the move
has achieved such a significant (and expensive!) proportion of
the overall model type. Traditionally commercial vehicle users
are interested solely in the economic attractions of their
transport and do not generally fall into the category of 'Do-
it-yourself motorists. Consequently the strictly commercial
models disappear from the scene when their worth in financial
terms i ns o longer economic. The models that survive from the
past in the hands of private owners tend
therefore
, to consist of
the multi-seat or conversion for a holiday home types.
This manual gives practical insight into the workings of a
transporter and will enable owners who are not familiar with the
somewhat unconventional layout to understand it better.
The servicing and repair procedures explained in the manual
are those which have been actually carried out by the team of
writer, mechanic and photographer working together.
