  • Patent number: 9995653
    Abstract: A method for diagnosing the function of an exhaust gas sensor in an exhaust gas. The function is evaluated here according to whether during a heating phase an operating temperature of the exhaust gas sensor has been reached for a predefined time period. It is taken into account here whether during the heating phase sufficient heating power has been available to carry out a successful heating phase.

  • Publication number: 20110137509
    Abstract: A method is described for diagnosing the functioning of one or more variably triggerable intake valves and/or exhaust valves in an internal combustion engine, including the following steps:—determining a modeled pressure value which provides a pressure value in an air system of the internal combustion engine, the pressure variation model describing a pressure variation of an error-free internal combustion engine as a function of the operating point; providing a value for the actual instantaneous pressure in the air system; ascertaining a deviation variable as a function of the modeled pressure value and a value for the actual pressure in the air system; detecting an error in the functioning of the intake valve and/or the exhaust valve as a function of the deviation variable.
