The throttle body on my 9-5 lpt has to be cleaned out at least every 30,000 miles. The oil residue either is turbo seal blow by or oil from the PCV system. I had the system repaired and cleaned at 120,000 service and have not been back into the TB yet. Previously the connection to the TB had a coating of oil that I would wipe out as well as cleaning the TB. Any one with minimal mechanical skills can perform this maintenance. Also, I did not know that leasing a car got you one that did not break ;)
