One day while driving to, ironically enough, my automotive class to do some work on my 300SE, there was a God awful loud buzzing noise under the shifter area. I pulled over to check for anything odd, but found nothing. I drove to class and while the car was on the lift, saw that the rear shifter bushing was almost gone. Mystery solved, it dropped into the tunnel, got caught in the center bearing and finally exited out the back.

I'll replace it this weekend. I'm going to remove the shifter and rod and do this on my workbench.
