So my Audi has sat for like a month until I was able to verify timing the alignment marks....(Thought it jump time).
Turns out all timing marks lined up perfectly! To which I breathed huge sigh of relief.
Since I was under the hood anyway I did cylinder compression checks for general health of the engine.
I did so on a cold engine...not sure if that was right or not.
This is the result of that (cold engine) compression check:
Cylinder #1: 95 PSI
Cylinder #2: 75 PSI
Cylinder #3: 70 PSI
Cylinder #4: 75 PSI
I don't have a manual for this car so its hard to find valid trustworthy information, (I was thinking it should be a higher reading)?
Anyone know what the normal cylinder compression is supposed to be for these engines?
Does it matter if the engine is cold or warm?
Also what's the allowed (+/-) percentage between cylinders?
I've read various articles that say it's anywhere from 10-20%?
Car info:
2010 Audi A4 Quattro 2.0T (B8) TFSI
Currently 135,000 Miles
Audi replaced the rings for excessive oil consumption roughly 3 yrs ago...my wife has driven it maybe 40K mile since that time to its current mileage.
When I tested it I pulled the fuel injector C/B and depress the throttle all the way...not sure if there's anything else other then that?
Any info would be awesome!
Thanks in advance!
