Low Compression
 

A few weeks ago I went to the dealership and found out I had low compression due to the need of a tune up. I got the tune up but was told that the compression wont ever be built back up to where it should be unless I get the engine rebuilt/fix whats needed in the engine. I was just wondering what low compression problems can cause performance wise to see if this is something I ultimately want to save for to have fixed. My rx8 is my dream car and I want it to run the way it should.

My god!?!?!?!?!?!?
I'm not touching this one

Um. I don't think there's any topics related, so no need to search.

:uh:

Read the first section over and over again until it makes sense.

if you are in North America you should still have the engine warranty which is 8yr/100kmi.

Sooooooo... you paid to let the dealership do a tune up on your car, even though you knew your engine had low compression?

Really?

Worse yet, the dealer told him to get a tune up knowing fully well that it would not improve things. Dealers really suck. They know he needs a new engine, might as well make a few bucks.
I would not let this dealer do the engine swap. Also you might want to call Mazda and let them know what's going on with your car.
