The 3.6 liter is plagued with oil consumption problems. It has to be one of the worse engines ever made by GM.

Have a 2006 cad. Cts . That has an intermittent shake when sitting at a light

Who did the work? With that much work done it should have come with some kind of warranty. I would take your car back to the person that did the work and ask them to take a look at it. Could be a fuel problem (fuel filter, pump, feed or return lines) or it could be a calibration that needs to be adjusted in your on-board computer. I would start with running a full diagnostic from a reputable company and see if it shows anything.

I have an oil pan lead in my 2006 dts, how to fix?

I assume you mean an oil pan LEAK. If so either the pan has a hole in it or the gasket is leaking. Either way the pan will have to be removed to repair the hole of replace the gasket. If it is the gasket that is leaking try tightening the oil pan bolts to 10 ft/lbs of torque.

Chrysler 300 3.5 v6 Slight engine knock - oil always changed

I have a 2006 with a 3.5 (41,000 miles). No oil consumption but had the knock. Started as a slight knock and continued to get louder. My buddy works at the dealer and hooked me up. Chrysler knows about this problem, it's the rocker arm assembly coming apart. They have a new revised part to fix the problem. THEY NEED TO RECAL THIS.
