Abstract
A motor vehicle is disclosed having an internal combustion engine and an integrated starter-generator drivingly connected to a crankshaft of the internal combustion engine by a belt drive. Operation of the internal combustion engine and the integrated starter-generator is controlled by an electronic controller in response to a number of inputs. The electronic controller is arranged to use the internal combustion engine and the integrated starter-generator to actively reduce driveline shuffle in one of a number of shuffle reduction modes that are selected by the electronic controller based on at least the current rotational speed of the internal combustion engine.
