It's the IAT (Intake Air Sensor). Use something safe for cleaning sensors.Rob B 95Z A4 Tech Page (Part numbers / locations, how to's, schematics, DTC's...) Home Page - shbox.com -
Do not use carb cleaner. Its way too harsh for electronics. It shouldn't even be used on throttle bodies, because is can remove protective coatings.Fred

how much oil do you use on your K&N? if the intake has black nasty residue on it, you may be using too much.2000 WS6 T/A M6. Monster stage 3 clutch, flowmaster cat back, 4.10's, SLP lid, Hurst shifter.

Use electrical contact cleaner on the IAT. It will remove oxidation but will not bleach. Use the same thing for the MAF.
