Just got back from Mile's workshop where he did a compression test on my car. Great guy, gave me 2 hours of his time this afternoon to check it all over and i even got a free brown sensor! (Cheers Miles) Test results were.

C1 - 200
C2 - around 165
C3 - around 165
C4 - 200

Looks like possible head gasket failure between 2 and 3, car missfires slightly on startup slight pressuring of coolant and i've always felt it was a tad down on power, guess this could be the reason. Unfortunately, don't think he can fit my car in for a month or so, so i've also left Carl a message to get back to me.

Don't drive it if the HG does go properly between the cylinders. It will score the head which means a fair bit more work to sort it out.
