Engine damage

Hi guys, was in the workshop because I have extreme start problems. Had battery and spark plugs renewed and still problems Then I’m in the workshop. They have read out the memory and the camshaft position encoder is gone. But they said it’s not because of the start. Now they have measured the compression 1. 11 2. 9 3. 4 4. 6 Bar The statement of the workshop was engine damage. Strange is only when it is cold it starts in 9/10 cases without problems when it is warm then 1/10. At the same time I read here more often at GDI there’s no engine damage ?! He has now 205000 km down and got 4 months ago a new clutch. Would my beloved limo hate to give up. Can you do something there ?! Is the statement so correct ?! Cann’t this Vlt. But with what else to do ?! Carisma 1.8 GDI 122 PS 205000 km Bj 00 manual transmission
