Abstract
In a method for operating an internal combustion engine having multiple cylinders, a cylinder to be checked is diagnosed for an injection quantity error. During a normal operation, a first air/fuel ratio is predefined for the multiple cylinders, and a first uneven running is ascertained. During an adjustment operation, a second air/fuel ratio for the cylinder to be checked is predefined during a number of working cycles. During the adjustment operation, a second uneven running is ascertained. The injection quantity error is ascertained for the cylinder to be checked as a function of the first uneven running and the second uneven running.
