When does my Mercedes-Benz 200-230 need a throttle body clean?

The throttle body can be found in Mercedes-Benz 200-230 engine bays, it’s part of the air intake system on fuel-injected models. Air from the outside of the Mercedes-Benz 200-230 is directed via tubes and flows through the air filter, into the throttle body, where it is then drawn into the intake manifold.

The air is then mixed with fuel and ignited, creating the combustion required to power a Mercedes-Benz 200-230.
