Abstract: A method of determining a flow resistance across a particulate filter located downstream of an internal combustion engine in an exhaust system. The method comprises measuring a first differential pressure across the particulate filter, measuring a second differential pressure downstream of the particulate filter, determining a pressure ratio of the first differential pressure and the second differential pressure, and from said pressure ratio, determining a flow resistance across the particulate filter. The second differential pressure is measured across a selective catalytic reduction system.
