I have had car for 5 years and I have driven it 100k miles.. I have never done a compresion check on this engine before..

It is low on power and is dropping.. The oil consuption is increasing over time...

It has 5 years of good maint and easy or normal driving...

I dont think it will cure it self if it is cyl wall damage... I will borescope the cylinders to look at cyl walls..
If the are smooth maybe it is just stuck rings??? If so maybe i can break them loose some how Engine cleaner??

This is a non turbo engine...

Thanks
