Then, if all of the steps (a) to (c) yield an affirmative result, an intervention in the engine management is made in such a way that a predetermined temperature is set in the oxidation catalyst; (e) hydrocarbons (HCs) are actively produced by post-injecting fuel at a late point in time; (f) a lambda value is measured upstream and downstream of the oxidation catalyst as soon as the predetermined temperature from step (d) has been reached, and while HCs are actively produced in step (e). Then, a difference is determined between the lambda values measured upstream and downstream of the oxidation catalyst. If the difference is less than a predetermined value, a conclusion is reached that the oxidation catalyst is damaged.	05-12-2011
