I have a 240d from 1982. 120k kms from new. It is low on power and my garage tells me the compression is low on three cylinders. Seems odd since I had a test 4000kms ago and it was ok.
So, it could be, I guess, head gasket, valves or rings. First, am I right and second, what is the most likely of these? And third, valves and headgasket are easy but rings? I have never done them - do I need to remove the engine if it is this? Any way of further testing?
Thanks for any advice
