Well that's what I get for expecting good news. ....

""all the 99 C4's are egas. Need to pull the boot from the air cleaner and clean out around the throttle plate.""

Wait a minute, if the throttle is egas, cleaning the throttle body (which I've now done) doesn't effect the feel of the throttle pedal (it didn't). They're not mechanically connected.

On further inspection the sound is coming from the plastic pedal assembly (the little box on the floor). It's not loud by any means but it's the sound of plastic rubbing on plastic. If you move the pedal quickly there's no problem, this only happens when moving the pedal slowly.

Is this assembly on the floor board something that can be lubricated?
