compression test......
 
I took my 2004 in for a comp. check and it passed. I asked for the numbers and all they had was it read 65-70 volts per idle then they call mazda and mazda checks that to see if its good. they say my engine is in good health but doesnt the test put out 3 numbers per rotor? i wanted the numbers to see what kind of life is left but they gave me numbers that i dont get. can anyone help?

what the f is 65-70 volts per idle? Are they talking about Vacuum test or something ?

Either way, Compression test means Compression test. it should give you 3 numbers per rotr (1 for each rotor face). and they should give you 2 rotor's number (meaning total of 6 numbers)

and there is a differnce limit between the 2 rotors.

Looks like someone @ dealership trying to make some quick bucks and just bs you. its so easy to do Vacuum test, you don't even need to lift the car,

I think you got served by that stealership...

Did they give you any kind of paperwork or the test results? They should give you a copy or you could ask for it. Anyway, let them know exactly what they did. They think your stupid or something, that's why they gave you those bs test results.

Yep I would demand them to do it again and give you the print out. Then I would demand my money back for trying to bullshit you.
