Abstract:
A system according to the principles of the present disclosure includes an exhaust braking enabling module, a driver torque module, and an engine actuator control module. The exhaust braking enabling module selectively enables exhaust braking based on driver input and independent of an accelerator pedal position. The driver torque module selectively determines a driver torque request based on a powertrain braking torque capacity when exhaust braking is enabled. The engine actuator control module controls fuel delivery to cylinders of an engine and a vane position of a turbocharger based on the driver torque request.
