Your shift linkage must be out of kilter. Sounds like the parking pawl
is knocking against the steering column.
Off topic, 72, but are you sure you want to delve too deeply into this
vehicle? Seems to have some issues -- and the great unstated statement
about these W114s is that they'll empty your pocket, kill your brain
cells and leave you with a $700 car. A w115 diesel is a better bet if
you like the body style.

Hi all,
My 72 250 seams to have developed a knock when I shift it in reverse.
This only happens when I engage reverse and as soon as the tranny goes into gear, it pulls the car just a hair back, the steering column moves 1/4" and knocks. It shounds like it's comming from the column.
I'm guessing this is not normal.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
George
