BMW 218i 67 plate

So my car was working fine in the morning on the way to work. When I got in it later and started driving everything was normal until I stopped at lights and the start/stop cut the engine. When I started back up again the car came up with a drivetrain message and started misfiring, had the AA come out and have a look and they said it was coil 3 is the problem so I had that swapped out and it was still misfiring, had it pulled to a garage and they said they have changed the spark plugs and it's still the same problem, so I took it to another garage because the first on had it 3 weeks and didn't have a clue what was up with it. The second garage ran a compression test on it and stated that it had low compression on cylinder 2 causing it it misfire. They quoted me £8500 for a rebuild of the engine. Which is shit because the car has done 33,000 miles and should need it.

Just wondering if anyone has had similar issues/problems and how they when on about fixing it.

Any info would be appreciated

Thanks
