Compression Help
 
I got a compression test done on my 2004 8 today. I am unsure about the results. When I called to get the results they told me it was ok. However when I went to pick the car up no one was available to talk to about the results. They just left the test results with the sales manager.
Results:
kPa Rotor 1 Rotor 2
1 5.2 5.6
2 5.5 5.5
3 5.3 5.4
RPM 216 216

Rotor1 and Rotor2 listed as no good
150 Diff/chambers is good
100 Diff/rotors good

69k miles
Colorado Springs = 6,035 feet above sea level

The test result sheet "Judgement of Engine Compression" has low written at the top by the tech who performed the test.

Is this passing or failing?

I can scan and attach the test results plus the techs chicken scratch if it helps.

From the look of it, that is a low compression on both rotors.

Change plugs, coils and seafoam the engine might help a bit. Good luck.

Get a new engine from Mazda if you still have warranty.
