Ml 250 W166 - Throttle Body

Please can anyone explain or provide a diagram of the location of the throttle sensor or valve body parts. I do not know where the throttle valve is located. Is it below the air filter box near the turbo ? I have a code indicating the throttle position sensor has an issue or possible stuck throttle valve , there is possibly soot and I would like to access it and clean the throttle body, but I cant find where the body is actually mounted. Please can someone share a diagram or photo or explain where I can find the throttle body? I can see the MAF sensor near the air box but where is the throttle body mounted ? Many Thanks

Try using these parts diagrams, and try posting a question in the ML W166 section where owners will see it.
