I did a compression test on my 2.0T FSI the other day and I pulled about 130 PSI across the board. 128, 131, 128, 128. Now, this is a 10.5:1 CR motor so I expected to see HIGH 190s or 200s... Is this correct?
We did this by pulling all the coils and all the plugs and putting the tester in one cyl at a time and cranking for about 15 seconds per cyl. WE DID NOT HAVE plugs in the other cyl's.
Did we do this correct? Should we have block off a vaccuum line or something?
ALSO, unrelated, I pulled my IAT to inject some magical motor cleaner (my buddy who works on diesels uses it and says its great, took over an hour to run everything through) and it was COVERED in oil. I have the latest OEM PCV installed, but I also have the BSH block off/catch can kits - they were removed becuse they did not help my other problems.
I'm all out of warranty and my lease is up next month - i'd like to see if I can get all this crap resolved! I used to have enough power to pretty easily spin my tires through 3rd (with a DSG) and now, in the snow, it feels like I have less power.
Any help at all is greatly appreciated! All subsequent procedures on my car will have photos to better explain anything I may have missed here.
