If those are both good then I'd replace the starter. I had the starter fail on my 300E a while back, it was just plain worn out when I removed it, motor brush dust everywhere, sloppy bearings...make sure to get a quality rebuilt starter online from a place like pelicanparts so it is a german rebuilt unit. The Malaysian ones from stores like autozone etc never last.
