Six minutes does not seem long to me, my coach tskes about the same time. If you replace the compressor, get a factory rebuilt unit and have a reputable servicer do the work; getting the drive lug off the compressor crank shaft can be quite a task and if you do it yourself you will need a brass hammer. While we are talking about the air system, the factory recommends you release all brake air by pumping the brake pedal when parking the coach. Leaving the brake system "aired up" subjects the seals to unrelenting pressure and will shorten their useful life.
