My Jetta has 417,000 KM and a compression test shows only 180psi compression, all 4 cylinders. Strangely, it still starts right off but makes lots of grey exhaust smoke when it is cold.
The past 2 years it has been used on all short trips, the engine is equipped with a webasto heater.
Some time ago, I read on here that these engines can lose piston ring seating in cases like this and I am wondering if I could obtain the post again..
The engine is otherwise sound, fuel injection timing has been checked mechanically and with the Ross-Tech interface. The injectors have new tips and VOP has been checked.
