Hi there, my sons 2009 1.4 500 75000km stopped on him a few nights back. He said it spluttered and then stalled and not able to restart it.
Had it towed home and I had a look at it.
Code reader had misfire on cylinder 3, random/multiple misfires and cam position sensor fault.
Pulled the plugs and the tip on cylinder 2 was broken off. Did a compression test, cylinder 1 was 200, 2 was 25, 3 was 45 and 4 was 70.
I stuck a scope down each and there doesn’t appear to be any piston of cylinder damage and all are raising and falling same height.
What are peoples thoughts on problem, I’m thinking either timing belt (original) has slipped and maybe valves open, cylinder head gasket.
Located in Australia.
