C43, gas pedal creaks feels loose, worn out???

Hi everyone, Ive been getting anyoed lately of my gas pedal. It started creaking and feels loose. It didn't bother me at first but now I hear it all the time. I tried spraying some grease in there but it didn't do much. It feels cheap and janky. Does anyone have any recommendations? Is it time to change it?

Yah I tightened the bolt but the pedal still squeaks. I tried grease but it didn't help. Ill probably end up replacing it.

Remove all the pedal assembly and clean and check out all the moving parts. If it is worn, guess you need a new one. I imagine any w202 pedal assembly will fit, but I'm not sure 100%
