can any of you guys please tell me if cleaning the throttle body is a bolt off bolt on affair thanks

Yes.
I would recommend removing the throttle body completely, then using a carb cleaner on it.
After all, whats the point of cleaning one side of it?
Don't forget, you will need a new gasket for the throttle body to inlet manifold.

It would be a good idea to get it on VAG-com.

Yes it is, plus coolant pipes if obd2.

Iknow theres a guy on ebay who sells em for £34 but if you want one from the stealers then go to ford!!!

That big ford that shares the vr6 engine.....thats it a galaxy....they sell em at half the price of vw stealers.
