I can't comment on your car specifically, as I'm not familiar with the capabilities of the Xentry system relative to your model, but I would expect that any stored faults will show up, and in doing so, will point at the source of the issue. The Xentry system does a good job of getting into the

military does use that nomenclature. Out here in the sticks, I always heard the M1 type as a "stripper clip" while the replaceable magazine was called a clip. It's not. The M1 Garand uses a clip to hold the 8 rounds together which are inserted into the empty magazine en masse. (You can also
