ok, it must be different than my old 04 xk, had a rough idle on it and when i cleaned the throttle body with throttle cleaner i cured problem, lots of black gunk, i didn't touch maf sensor.
would the 07 model not be the same, at the moment it idles up and down between 500-800 rpm, up and down , like the throttle needs to be adjusted or something, sometimes it's ok,no driving issues

It's the same with the S-Type, the coating is delicate and thin. Even so, a few people have cleaned gently and with careful choice of solvents. Doesn't normally cure anything as usually the fault is elsewhere (such as O2 sensors getting old). Don't try to adjust the TB if you do clean it as it's a high precision device with calibrated setting.
I plan never to clean mine....
