Cleaning the throttle body on an Audi Q7 is a time-consuming but important task because the throttle body can become clogged with debris not captured by the EGR valve, causing engine issues and triggering the warning light. Therefore, before going to a shop or purchasing replacements, it is advisable to clean the EGR valve, the throttle body, and the intake ducts.

Proceed as shown in the video and remove the throttle body for a thorough cleaning. If you notice that the throttle body is damaged, repair it by replacing the broken part as shown in the video.

Once replaced, reinstall it on the Audi.
