Well something is wrong, as one says 202 high compresion and the other 202 low compresion.
I would sugest the VIN is the error.

The engine number recorded for the car is a QL but its a very very early number (compared to what should be in the car) so apparantly the most likely scenario is a factory stuff up and the engine was replaced by the selling dealer, who incidently sold it |
