After work I went out to start my 5mt 05 LGT sedan, right after it fired up for around 1-2 seconds it died on me and would not start. Video below v
I had it towed to my mechanic, who ran a compression test on it and found low compression in one bank and no compression in the other. The shop is putting on a new timing belt just to see if that will get the car to start. Should I start looking for a new car? Or would it be worth it to try and rebuild the engine, if it's at that point of course. The mechanic told me something on my timing mechanism was siezed, I'm not very versed in cars yet being only 17 The engine had 120k miles on it when this happened.
