    Just to the left of the 4 rings on the cover. follow the intake and where it curves and straightens. That's it, it's in your pic.

    That is not a MAF sensor in the intake tube.

    I believe the Supercharged V6 work of a MAP sensor that detects pressure and vacuum changes in the intake manifold.

    My ‘13 3.0TFSI doesn’t have one… must be controlled by MAP sensor

    Yup it’s like a vent hose to something, next question is cleaning the throttle body by itself or should I just clean it when I change out the supercharger oil? Is the throttle body difficult to get off?

    I clean them on the vehicle, but be warned, any adjustment in the 'learned' position can cause a rough running issue and to have the idle speed and or idle air values relearnt with a scan tool. Do not have the ignition on while cleaning.
