Abstract

The invention is directed to a method and an arrangement for equalizing at least two cylinder banks of an internal combustion engine wherein a control parameter is corrected. The control parameter influences the torque contributions of the cylinder banks when a deviation in the quantities is determined. These quantities represent the torque contributions of the cylinder banks.
