Ajust gear-lever, so the stick is exactly at D when going forward

[vilhelm]

Hello!
On my W210 (E300 diesel) from 1996 the gear-lever and the options (N, R, D) isn´t really good fitted. When it is really in Drive, the gear-lever is more close to R than D on the interior. How do I adjust this?

I would be very happy if anyone of you could tell me this

It's more likely to be one of the rubber grommets on the linkage under the car that has split and fallen out. If you place the lever in neutral is there a lot of forward/backward slack at the lever? This shows a grommet has fallen out in my experience.
