Toyota Avensis low compression on 1 cylinder, engine management light is on.
Variant: T3
Model Year: 2005
Categories:
Engine & Drivetrain
Since I bought the vehicle I have had this problem. I took it to a local garage and was told that Cylinder 1 has low compression.
Now I need to find out whether to fix it or continue driving it. Is it worth a repair or is there any easy fix for this problem?

No easy fix , at least need to remove head and check valves , pistons and cylinder bores . Could try a wet compression test . If you strip it , no turning back
