Abstract
A method for regulating the temperature of a coolant of an internal combustion engine, including a temperature sensor detecting the temperature of the coolant and a first control unit controlling and/or regulating the coolant temperature to obtain a predetermined temperature setpoint value, a further control unit being provided whose signals are fed to the first control unit, the further control unit relaying signals about an established driver type to the first control unit and, depending on whether the driver type is classified as sporty or economical, the first control unit presetting the temperature setpoint value, in which a coolant volume flow for cooling the internal combustion engine is regulated or controlled by the control unit as a function of the driver type established.
