A method for improving oxidative stability of a lubricating oil in a diesel engine by using as the lubricating oil a formulated oil. The formulated oil has a composition including a lubricating oil base stock as a major component, and at least one aminic antioxidant, at least one phenolic antioxidant, and at least one Group V base stock as minor components. The at least one aminic antioxidant is present in an amount from 0.1 to 2.5 wt. %, the at least one phenolic antioxidant is present in an amount from 0.5 to 5 wt. %, and the at least one Group V base stock is present in amount from 1 to 20 wt. %. Oxidative stability is improved in a diesel engine lubricated with the lubricating oil, as compared to oxidative stability achieved in a diesel engine lubricated with a lubricating oil containing a minor component other than specified antioxidants and Group V base stock.
