Could this be squirted in where the crank case breather hose attaches?
Rather than try and remove the rubber concertina hose.
Been there… It is probably best to take the whole lot off and give it a good clean mate! I found my IACV was so gummed up, the TB cleaner actually made that worse! So yes, all hoses off too! Access is easy if you remove the boot divider, only 4 bolts! 
Scoob is on about s2 Pete ?
Yeah Pete, get a grip man!!!
and the answer is…?
Does it need it !
well…does it need it?
Who knows. I bought the car new in 2008 only 12k on the clock but I have never cleaned the throttle body so my thinking was what harm can it do.
May cause my self grief by loosening up crap that other wise is doing no real harm. Not really keen on just squirting solvent in to the throttle body and not being able to see what is going on. Think I’d much rather take it to bits and clean it the old fashioned way. If it needs it at all??
What do those who know better think?
If you havent got any issues relating to the throttle, i wouldnt bother…
any one want a can of throttle body cleaner 
What’s the alcohol content ?
Scoob , was your Golf a diesel by any chance ?
Yes how did you know?
150 GTD
cos the pd engine was notorious for clogging the EGR with soot …
I kinda figured that it may have left an imprint due to you wanting to clean your S2 inlet !
Did mine once and the aperture was about 80% clogged…never vented the crankcase back through the engine again !!
Still a bloody good car tho.
Had mine 6 years 252K miles and still going strong when I sold it for 3.5K about 3 years ago
did not owe me a penny
230k on mine ,then the head gasket went!
Got a little Yaris diesel now … don’t laugh , handles sublime ,like a go kart … very light and nimble ,surprises some expensive stuff at roundabouts
Enjoying tweaking geometry settings and pressures at the mo …
I leave work at around 3 am and have some deserted and fast roundabouts on the way home
It’s not that hard to undo two clips and move the rubber pipe out the way to spray in and around the throttle body .
Thought your dirty maf days were over m8!
I can’t resist a dirty maf , who can ?
If it is 14 percent or more, I will have it… I need to get a grip!
Even at 14% it cannot compete with organophosphates m8…
… sorry, not a joke Pete …
You know I’m jesting x
