Abstract

The invention relates to a method for adjusting a friction coefficient of an automated clutch, wherein a current friction coefficient (RK) is determined by a comparison with a moment of the internal combustion engine during a slipping phase of the clutch. In a method, in which the adaptation over the entire operation of the motor vehicle is possible, the current friction coefficient (RK) is pilot-controlled to a long-term friction coefficient (RL) in a non-slipping phase of the clutch and/or in the event of a torque signal that cannot be monitored.
