Compositions resulting from the mixing of at least one oligomer A1, resulting from the copolymerization of at least one monomer functionalized by diol functions with at least a second monomer, and at least one compound A2 including at least two boronic ester functions. The compositions exhibit very varied rheological properties, depending on the proportion of the compounds A1 and A2 used. A composition also results from mixing at least one lubricating oil with such a composition of associative and exchangeable polymers, and to the use of this composition to lubricate a mechanical part.

The invention is directed to a method for reducing low speed pre-ignition events in a spark-ignited direct injection internal combustion engine by supplying to the sump a lubricant composition which contains an oil of lubricating viscosity and an ashless dispersant. The ashless dispersant may be selected from succinimide compounds prepared from aliphatic or aromatic amines.
