Under the top engine cover/plenum chamber.although it's a faff.

My wife's car has the same problem. I removed the throttle, although I couldn't get access to the air mass meter which will probably be the culprit. The throttle body end cover is rivetted on and fly-by-wire. I didn't want to disturb the throttle butterfly in case it lost its calibration.
