Hi,

Is that the only code that was present? The compression is within the manufacturer's specs. They indicate the lowest and highest shouldn't be more than 25% different, which places you in the okay range.

The code indicates the cam sensor is indicating too many pulses. So, if that is the only code you have, take a look at the attachments below. They include the diagnostics specific to your vehicle and this code.

Let me know if this is something you feel comfortable doing.

Let me know.
