    Th best way is to take it off the car to clean it, IMHO it cannot be cleaned properly otherwise.IIRC it is really simple. Take off the air filter, unplug the multiplug, then take off of the air pipe (and the trottle cable if its not DBW) then undo the 4 bolts and they come off.

    I normaly jam the butterfly open with a soft bit of wood then clean them with a cloth and lots of carb cleaner. BE VERY CARFUL NOT TO SCRATCH THE INSIDE.

    When it is spottlessly clean put it back together.

    Then connect up vag-com and use the instructions off of the ross tech wiki http://wiki.ross-tech.com/index.php/...ment_%28TBA%29
