Abstract
A method for preventing stalling of an internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle, wherein the motor vehicle has at least one internal combustion engine, at least one automatically controlled clutch, and at least one transmission, wherein a drive shaft of the internal combustion engine can be coupled to a transmission input shaft of the transmission by means of the clutch to transmit torque, wherein the clutch is disengaged if a calculated rotational speed value of the drive shaft is less than a certain threshold value, and wherein the rotational speed value is calculated, in particular continually or continuously, as a function of a determined, current rotational speed of the drive shaft and as a function of a determined, current speed gradient of the drive shaft.
