Ce procédé comprend les étapes qui consistent à : générer et détecter un signal de réponse de diagnostic ; déterminer une valeur réelle (HBSI_ak) pour une grandeur de mesure de diagnostic influant sur un facteur d'étalonnage, en particulier essentiellement proportionnelle à un facteur d'étalonnage, à partir du signal de réponse de diagnostic ; et déterminer une précision de mesure réelle (Delta_ak) pour une valeur de mesure pouvant être déterminée au moyen du débitmètre (8), pour la grandeur de mesure, sur la base d'au moins une comparaison entre une valeur de référence enregistrée (HBSI_ref) pour la grandeur de mesure de diagnostic et la valeur réelle (HBSI_ak) pour la grandeur de mesure de diagnostic. L'invention concerne en outre un système de mesure comportant le débitmètre (8).
