Hi all im going to attempt to clean my throttle body today, as im having issues sometimes with my revs dropping slowly and revs rise ing between gear changes i had clutch switch checked and clutch no slippage,
Anyway have looked at this guide here http://uk-mkivs.net/forums/p/127279/857711.aspx#857711 looks fairly easy even for me 4x 5mm allen key bolts and a jubilee clip, i have a few questions,
1, mine is a AMK so im thinking will need to be alligned via Vag Com which i have NOT got, but have read it will align itself after 15-20 miles of driving is this correct?? or will i need vagcom for it?
i know the early models you can reset it by turning ignition and waiting for throttle to reset? but i dont think thats the case on mine?
2 On top of my throttle body thereis a the rubber hose what stops then goes into like a black metal tube, is this for fuel? As the rubber bit that joins the tb looks a little perished so could replace it?
3 Is it ok to push the butterfly valve open by hand to clean it as i readsome people say it wont move and some says it fine like on the guide
Sorry for the questions but if it is good to go would like to do it myself today, Thanks Oski:icon_thumright:
