Abstract: A system according to the principles of the present disclosure includes a start-stop module, a pre-ignition risk module, and a cooling control module. The start-stop module stops and restarts an engine independent from an input received from an ignition system. The pre-ignition risk module monitors a risk of pre-ignition when the engine is restarted and generates a signal based on the risk of pre-ignition. The cooling control module controls a cooling system to circulate coolant through the engine when the engine is stopped in response to the risk of pre-ignition.

Abstract: A coolant control system of a vehicle includes a fraction module, and a coolant valve control module. The fraction module determines an oil fuel fraction based on an amount of fuel in an amount of engine oil. The coolant valve control module, based on the oil fuel fraction, selectively actuates a coolant valve to enable coolant flow from an integrated exhaust manifold (IEM) of an engine to an engine oil heat exchanger.

Abstract: A pump current module determines a first current flowing through an electric engine coolant pump based on a coolant valve position. A current error module receives a second current flowing through the electric engine coolant pump measured using a current sensor and determines a current error based on a difference between the first current and the second current. A fault module indicates whether a fault is present based on the current error.

Abstract: An exhaust gas treatment system for an engine includes an exhaust gas inlet tube configured to receive an exhaust gas from the engine. A particulate filter, a heat exchange system and first and second selective catalytic reduction (SCR) devices are in fluid communication with the exhaust gas inlet tube. The particulate filter is configured to undergo thermal regeneration when the exhaust gas in the particulate filter is heated above a regeneration temperature. The controller is configured to control a temperature difference, between a present temperature of the second SCR device and a predefined optimal second SCR temperature, to be within a predefined threshold during the thermal regeneration of the particulate filter. The controller may be configured to direct an injector to inject a reductant into the first SCR device when the temperature difference is below the predefined threshold, thereby controlling a NOx emission in the exhaust gas.
