Not really, depends when you took the measuring. If you took it when the car has been off for a long time, you get one type of reading. If you took it when the car is running, you get another type of reading. And if you turn it off, you get another type of reading as well. So which one is the most accurate? Take a few yourself and make a determination then, it's just how things work.
