Compression and leakdown test showed cylinder #3 has a cracked ringland.

That being said the tech at the shop said to just keep driving it and it will be fine for "a while."

Should I keep driving it and start saving for a new shortblock or trade it in while its running fine.

Decisions decisions my gut is 50/50 right now.

If you trade it in, be sure to disclose this issue. No telling what the dealer will do from there, but you won't be part of it then.....
