Default STI 2008 hatch compressions

Hi guys, just had a mid service oil change and compression test. Numbers were 1/150 2/142 3/145 and 4/135. Mileage is 36,000 and all seems well as far as the engine goes so would appreciate your thoughts on these readings please. Thanks.

No 4 is the first to get ringland failure, & its the lowest, keep an eye on oil consumption & if you get any mid range hesitation.

Thanks for the feedback. Should I be concerned at this stage?

If you have no concerns with oil consumption it will be ok, just check it often & before any long runs.
