yep got ya, wots best to do take the hose off and wipe it with a cloth or spray it with wd 40 or something along those lines?
Ideally you want to unbolt it and clean it from both sides but you'll need a new gasket and a throttle body reset with Vagcom.

i rite i duno who has a vagcom round here my m8s garage how did my last diagonstic thing doesnt have it, can it b reset by another make or does it have 2 b vagcom
Apart from taking it to a garage I don't think so.
You can clean it on the car using a fluid that will evaporate but I wouldn't reccomend it as although the fluid will evaporate all the crap from around the butterfly wont and will go into the manifold.
Guess you could put the ignition on, place something on the throttle pedal so the butterfly opens and give it a clean.........but I personally wouldn't as there pretty delicate.
