Got my car back today and they replaced the lift springs in cyl 5 due to a lack of compression. Hopefully that will work. Disreguard last post. Light back on today and back to the dealer with a few choice words!

You need to find out what the results of the compression test was. This will tell you if you need engine work or not. No power on earth will fix a bad valve except replacement!
