Dealer recommended intake cleaning?
My dealer recommended that I should schedule intake cleaning based on mileage / age of car...thought that the dual / port injection would keep this clean in comparison to a direct injection only car?
I have a 2020 BRZ, so 4 years with just a tick over 20k miles. Driving is street only for commuting / travel and a few back roads only. Let me know if there is a recommended interval or load of ... Cheers |

It is worth getting into the throttle body and cleaning the butterfly valve once in a while
You can do this with a rag and some throttle body cleaner |

TB is worth cleaning as mentioned.
I do find adding good injector cleaner every oil change like redline helpful. DI injectors known to slowly gum up, anything I to slow that process is good. |

Thanks all for the confirmation and recommendation to clean the throttle body! Will occasionally run some injector cleaner here and there.
