Default How to Clean the ETM on Volvo S80 T6 (98)

Has anyone got step-by-step instructions (with pictures) on how to clean the ETM? I have looked at my T6 and it looks like a really hard job to do. I have searched this forum and others and some people suggest a clean of the throttle body to fix up the issue. Supposedly this would take 20-30 minutes max, but I can't even see how this thing would actually come out off the car, it looks like it's buried beneath who knows what. I know that the ETM has been replaced (yellow sticker and records) and it looks like the codes have been done. I suspect it's dirty and just needs a good clean.

I have a look here (http://www.volvoforums.org.uk/showthread.php?t=44744) but this doesn't look like the S80 T6 bay and where I would expect the throttle body to be to clean it. Please help!

I have also read here => http://www.volvoforums.org.uk/showthread.php?t=46100but again can't see how this is easy to get to on an S80 T6.

I just looked at my car. It looks likeit is bolted to the bottom of the intake manifold. It would indeed seem to be difficult to remove it to clean it - maybe involving removing the intake manifold first.

I found this writeup. It looks like it's generally applicable, with maybe the exception of an additional air hose or two for the T6. After you click on the link, you will need to click on the link that pops up to get the pdf file.
