Excessive oil consumption

Further to my earlier post on the 2/11/19 re excessive oil consumption, when I took my Pulsar 1.2 Tekna in for its service I did mention the problem with the oil to them they said they would look into it, When I collected my car they told me they had done a compression test and two of the cylinders were down in the 80% region and that they would fit a new engine in, subsequently last week i took the car in and collected it last Thursday complete with a new engine, extended warranty, and Nissan road side assistance, seeing that I bought the car used, also it was four years old and out of warranty and was bought from a Nissan dealership in London not the one in Plymouth where I took it for its service, what can I say but a big thank you to Nissan, and Vosper's Nissan Plymouth, and also this forum for first informing me about this problem.

You are lucky that it lasted that long, had to have mine replaced after 5,000 miles
