Default Engine rebuild

I've got a blob sti and the engine managment light came on the other day. Just got out the garage and for some reason cylinder 3 is loosing compression, I've been told it's not the spark plugs and not coil packs. The mechanic suggested a engine rebuild or a new engine. He did first say to sell the car any help would be very appreciated if you have any ideas of prices?

Hi, that's brilliant as I'm only in Exeter, it's going in for further diagnostics tomorrow to see if what this mechanic has said is true hopefully it isn't but I'm not holding a lot of hope. Thankyou very much for the help and without sounding rude, fingers crossed I won't have to call you but if this is the case I will be on the phone to you guys straight away

+1 engine tuner for advice and build

I think you're always better off talking to people who know subaru's,
At least you will know exactly what the problem is and what hands it's in
