City and boss Guardiola were without a win in six matches in all competitions, but Sergio Aguero flashed in Ilkay Gundogan's through ball to give them the lead.
The Baggies were flat and Aguero struck again, punishing hesitant defending with a powerful, top-corner finish.
Aguero's last goals for City was in the 3-1 league victory at Swansea on 24 September, which was also City's most recent win before today.
His second goal was spectacular, but equally simple. McAuley and Jonas Olsson both should have cleared a loose ball on the edge of the box but hesitated, allowing the 28-year-old to set himself up and smash home.
This is his seventh league goal of the season.
West Brom improved hugely after the break but failed to take their chances before Gundogan twice slotted home - first from Aguero's chip and then after being found by Kevin de Bruyne.
Agüero scored (19' minutes, 28' minutes), Gündogan scored (79' minutes, 90' minutes). FT WBA 0 - MCI 4
