I don’t even recall seeing a Speed3 until after I bought my car. I wanted AWD, anyway. Now that you mention it, though, I have been keeping my eye out for a clean, unmolested first gen Speed3.

For the last few years, I’ve been running Mobil 1 5W-30 High Mileage. I can usually find it for about $25 for 5 quarts at Walmart or on Amazon. I’ve never done anything with the HPFP but it is on my list. I rarely beat on it.

Hi all, original owner of 06 MS6 with 154k miles. It’s been a reliable daily driver in totally stock condition, but it’s time for some maintenance/repairs (A/C clutch and bearing needed now). I look forward to researching the threads here.

06 MS6 154k miles, A/C clutch bearing has started to make noise and A/C not cooling like it used to. Looks like a great writeup above. As mentioned by ReanimationXP, can anyone recommend a source for a good quality A/C clutch and bearing kit? I don't really want to buy the whole compressor...
