Welcome to posting publicly on the forums bily300! The rear fascia sag is a common problem, and fixable on the 2005s and perhaps some 2006 models. The is a TSB about the issue which had limited success, and a DIY-fix that worked better. The DIY-fix (although applied by my dealer's body-shop) fixed my former 2005 300C completely.

However, most 2006's came with a reinforced attachment point for the rear sides of the fascia that made it impossible to apply the DIY-fix, and certainly negated the applicability of the TSB fix as well. So with my 2006 Heritage Edition, I've just had to live with a "little" sag. The sag isn't as bad as on the 2005, but it still is noticeable (at least to me).

Do you know if there is a link to the DIY fix? I noticed that the gap between the rear quarter and the rear bumper cover isn't even and it's sagging a bit.

I'd like to give this a try if you know what the DIY fix is.

Thanks!
