I can fix them when they are yellow but they always get damaged again for no reason as I sail peacefully and if they become red its game over of course. Any ideas what might be the source of this problem? Could it be time compression? last time it happened I was cruising the nord sea at 1024 time compression.

If you are using H.SIE patched sh3.exe one of the realism effects it adds is causing engine damage if you spend too long at Flank speed. Going into x1024 compression at Flank speed will definitely cause your engines to be damaged.
All you can do is travel at a lower speed, the one below Flank is fine and doesn't slow the game down noticably. I only use the top speed when making immediate manoeuvres to avoid depth charges, move around a convoy or for crash diving.
