    2006 Air condition compressor clutch Field Coil

    Yup. Looks like more than a bit of a pain. The compressor is already out of the car and disassembled (easily put back together) But there appears to be neither a filed coil OR a new compressor in stock ANYWHERE! Only one I can even find is an aftermarket one on rock auto.

    Socket for titanium lug nuts

    Any good auto parts store sells Lug nut sockets with Delrin inserts specifically for the purpose of removal without scratching the nuts or surrounding surface. If you can't find them at a store then Snap-on online sells them as well as Matco.com

    Deep Sleep Mode??

    Actually the roof is one of the cool features. It can be used in 3 positions. Closed all the way (snaps to the windshield); in the "landau" position (as Shown), and completely folded down into the rear storage compartment. No roll-up windows though so you gotta use side curtains if it rains!!

    On track at Sonoma! Boy I need a new helmet!!
