It`s a super simple 30 mins job. I didn`t remove the throttle body but I knew it was clean. Just pulled the AOS-to-throttle body hose off, removed the two torx screws and the connector and pulled the valve off. Be sure you don`t damage the paper gasket if you don`t have a new one. For cleaning it`s not necessary to disassemble the valve unit but it`s easier to inspect and clean the parts if you do so. There`s a copper/brass pin that has to be pulled out, I used a wood screw and a plier to grab it. Then you just need to twist the two halves against each other to unlock the bayonet lock and they come apart. There was a little dirt and dust in the valve unit and also around the magnet that made it stuck. I dropped both into a jar with gasoline, shaked for a minute then dried them with compressed air and reassembled.
