Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to a method for controlling operation of a starter (220) for a combustion engine (230) during a start-up phase, comprising the steps of:- activating (s410) said starter (220);- continuously determining (s420) an engine speed course of said combustion engine (230);- continuously determining (s430) a mean slope of said determined engine speed course;- on the basis of said determined mean slope, predicting (s440) if a predetermined engine speed will be reached without operation of said starter (220); and,- if decided that said predetermined engine speed will be reached without operation of said starter (220), deactivating (s450) said starter (220).The invention relates also to a computer program product comprising program code (P) for a computer (200; 210; 500) for implementing a method according to the invention. The invention relates also to a system for controlling operation of a starter (220) for a combustion engine during a start-up phase and a motor vehicle (100) equipped with the system.
