Abstract: An engine system that delivers torque to a driveline of a vehicle includes an internal combustion engine (ICE), a manifold, a compressor and a controller. The manifold selectively communicates air into the ICE. The compressor is driven by an electric motor and is configured to deliver air toward and away from the manifold. The controller determines an ICE start request and, based on the ICE start request, sends a signal to the electric motor to rotate the compressor in a direction that moves air out of the manifold. The eCompressor is used to deplete air in the manifold before starting the ICE. As a result, a reduction in fuel used and therefore a reduction in emissions at startup is achieved.

The IVR system may extract the OTP and may validate the OTP. If the OTP is validated, the call may be initiated as a pre-authenticated call in which the IVR system might not request authentication data from the user. If the OTP is not validated, the call may be initiated as a standard call in which the IVR system may request authentication data from the user.
