Abstract: An exhaust purification system includes a filter, an oxygen supply device, and a controller. The filter is configured to trap particulate matters contained in exhaust gas of an engine. The oxygen supply device is configured to supply oxygen contained in intake air of the engine to the filter.

Abstract: In a dither control process performed on a fuel injection valve, at least one cylinder is set as a rich combustion cylinder and another cylinder is set as a lean combustion cylinder. A dither control process is executed in a first mode when a vehicle is driven in a normal manner by a user. The dither control process is executed in a second mode on condition that a command signal for performing a temperature raising process on the exhaust gas purifier is input from a device outside the vehicle at a repair shop. The absolute value of the difference between the air-fuel ratio of the lean combustion cylinder and the air-fuel ratio of the rich combustion cylinder obtained by the dither control process is set to be greater in the second mode than in the first mode.
