:scared: That's very close to its lower limit of 101.5 psi (7 bar).

Jaysus that's rough. I don't know the specifications for ED30s, but this is what I found for normal GTIs a while back, I can't find the source of the info though
--- Quote ---VW says it should be 170psi+ for new engine and it's time for a rebuild under 109 psi

Provided your compression tester isn't faulty, are there any problems otherwise with how the car drives? Have you had any metal flakes in the oil filter?
Lewo:
Noticed yesterday that after fitting the front seats the other day,
that the drivers window now works with one touch to fully open & close.
After fitting the window regulator last year it had stopped doing that and was a pita lol.
Must be having the battery disconnected for an hour maybe reset something? :rolleye:
