Abstract
A method for diagnosing an aftertreatment component, wherein nitrogen oxide is reduced using a first catalytic converter upstream said aftertreatment component and a second catalytic converter downstream said aftertreatment component, said aftertreatment component oxidizing nitric oxide into nitrogen dioxide. A first sensor measure nitrogen oxide downstream said first catalytic converter but upstream said aftertreatment component, and a second sensor measure nitrogen oxide downstream said aftertreatment component. The method includes: supplying additive upstream said first catalytic converter; using said first and second sensors, performing a first measurement at a first temperature of said first aftertreatment component; using said first and second sensors, performing a second measurement at a second temperature of said first aftertreatment component; and diagnosing oxidation of nitric oxide into nitrogen dioxide in said aftertreatment component using said first and second measurements.
