By carbon cleaning, I mean the full intake cleaning and flap removal work. If just the intake carbon cleaning has been done (I wasn't aware Audi were interested in doing such a thing) then that means the plastic swirl flaps are still there and are most likely all broken up and loose. Take it from me, it's quite scary removing the magnesium manifold and seeing one of the flaps balancing over an intake port ready to be eaten by the engine, and you can budget £1,000-£1,500 to get it done properly.
