    Anyone done a throttle body clean on a 2.8 V6 quattro? been meaning to do one for a while but have been putting it off, all looks very tight in there.

    Any tips from those in the know?

    remove convelluted intake hose to throttle body
    remove 2 screws/nuts that hold the intake trunking and release out of the way then you can get to it or remove the whole throttle body if i remember 2 6mm allen keys

    You make it sound so easy lol, thanks for the help. I think I might remove the whole thing and give a good clean, I get the occasional erratic idle.
