Abstract

A method for controlling a drivetrain of a vehicle during a shift process is described. The drivetrain includes a drive engine which is connected via a bow spring dual-mass flywheel to a transmission which can be uncoupled by way of a clutch. The bow spring dual-mass flywheel includes a bow spring which is arranged in a bow spring channel. The method includes detecting that the clutch is closed within the scope of a shift process. Furthermore, the method includes generating a torque intervention at the bow spring dual-mass flywheel independently of a torque request by a driver of the vehicle, in such a way that the bow spring is arranged on the same side of the bow spring dual-mass flywheel after the closing of the clutch as before the opening of the clutch.
