2017 AMG GT S (previous MBZ was a C32 AMG)
air intake - oily residue

i took apart the entire air intake assembly today just to see the construction and see what kind of "custom intake" mods i can do...

i noticed that the splitter was covered with an oil residue inside.. i wiped it clean, but was wondering where this is coming from...?

the throttle body had some gunk on it too, so i sprayed it down with "CRC Throttle Body and Air Intake Cleaner" and wiped it clean.

Any ideas?

By the way, what is the tiny hose connected to the driver's side intake box for?
