[QUOTE="BlueOvalBill, post: 4971009, member: 13265"] My "service engine soon" light has come on (and gone off) a few times over the past few months. I took the car to the dealer. They ran a compression test and found that cylinders 7, 2, 6, and 5 have relative compression losses of: 5%, 1%, 5%, and 11%. They recommend replacing the driver's side head, which would cost $4,300! Any ideas about how serious this situation is? Can I just keep driving the car without replacing the head? Is there something I can buy to pull the fault codes and clear the "service engine soon" light (so I can tell whether its this general misfire code vs. something else when the "service engine soon" light comes on in the future)? Thanks, Bill [/QUOTE]
