Stick piston in the rear caliper -- also the pads got worn down and hit the spring, so that the rotor is worn funny.

Replace rotors and rebuild rear calipers.

Check the bushings on the rear control arms, and check for rustout on both -- W126 rear control arms rusting out is beginning to be a problem. If you replace the, drill a ventilation hole in the bottom and paint the inside.
