Synopsis

A319 pilot reported a rejected takeoff due to receiving an ECAM message for the #2 engine compressor vane.

Narrative

Aircraft had been out of service for multiple days. Aircraft Maintenance Logbook showed multiple items fixed; several of which related to #2 Engine. Aircraft Maintenance Logbook was clean once we arrived at the aircraft. Immediately after power up; Recorder SYS ECAM illuminated and was cleared by maintenance. Push back and start up were normal with no transient ECAMS. Once cleared for takeoff; normal power application and engines stabilized at Flex power setting. Approximately 70 kts ECAM Engine 2 Compressor Vane illuminated and as per SOP rejected takeoff. Due to aircraft light weight; it continued to accelerate past 80 kts which triggered autobrakes and rapid deceleration. Once reversers were stowed and engines returned to idle; ECAM cleared. Advised ATC of our rejected takeoff; declined the offer of ARFF and exited Runway XXL. Once parked on Taxiway 1; called ZZZ Maintenance and was advised to return to the Gate. Taxied to the gate uneventfully.Cause: I do not know if an engine run was accomplished prior; if not; whether it would have been beneficial.
