AMX is a motorhead maybe he can point you in the right dierection. But then again it`s not a dodge so maybe not.

I know nothing about VWs, and even less about new ones. New is after they quit making the original Bug.

But I really don't see why they need to clean an intake. Shouldn't be any carbon in there. Is there an exhaust crossover that could be clogged up and so not heating up the throttle body? I thought they didn't use a crossover runner anymore now that they use computers.
