A method for preventing or reducing engine knock or pre-ignition in a high compression spark ignition engine lubricated with a lubricating oil by using as the lubricating oil a formulated oil. The formulated oil has a composition that contains at least one branched hydrocarbon having at least about 25% of the carbons in the form of methyl groups, or at least one polyol ester of at least one branched mono-carboxylic acid. A lubricating engine oil having a composition that contains at least one branched hydrocarbon having at least about 25% of the carbons in the form of methyl groups, or at least one polyol ester of at least one branched mono-carboxylic acid. The lubricating engine oils are useful as passenger vehicle engine oil (PVEO) products.

A lubricant composition improves a performance of reducing a formation of compressor deposit. The lubricant composition also ensures low temperature properties of the lubricant composition. The lubricant composition includes 14 mass % or more of a fraction having a boiling point of 500 C. to 550 C. and 5 mass % or more of a fraction having a boiling point of over 550 C.
