older audi vocab called it the ISV, when I cleaned it on my coupe quattro I followed this process off 20v.org.
[ol][*]THOROUGHLY spray carb cleaner into the two hose connections on the ISV and allow to soak inside the unit, then pour it out. Repeat this process several more times until the stuff you pour out looks clean. Better yet, fill a small container with carb cleaner and let the ISV soak in it for an hour or two, then spray it a few more times. When you think you've cleaned it enough, clean it some more!
