Abstract

A diagnostic system for a vehicle includes a vehicle system configured to operate the vehicle in a normal operating mode and a boosted mode. In the boosted mode, the vehicle system increases at least one of a maximum motor torque, a maximum engine torque, and a maximum battery power available to the vehicle. A wear estimation module is configured to collect wear data associated with a component of the vehicle while being operated in the boosted mode, estimate, based on the collected wear data, wear of the component caused by being operated in the boosted mode, and generate a prediction of a remaining lifetime of the component based on the estimated wear of the component.
