Provided is a lubricant composition which is excellent in thermal stability and chemical stability while making it possible to detect a leakage point of the lubricant composition, etc. with a fluorescent agent. The lubricant composition is one containing a base oil (A) and a fused ring compound (B) being fluorescent, having a tri- or higher fused ring, and not having nitrogen, oxygen, and sulfur in a molecule thereof, wherein the fused ring compound (B) is contained in an amount of 0.001 to 1.0% by mass on a basis of the whole amount of the lubricant composition.

A method for improving oxidative stability of a lubricating oil in a diesel engine, in which biodiesel fuel is used with diesel fuel in the diesel engine, by using as the lubricating oil a formulated oil. The formulated oil has a composition including at least one Group V lubricating oil base stock. The at least one Group V lubricating oil base stock is present in an amount from 1 to 75 weight percent, based on the total weight of the lubricating oil. 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 not having the at least one Group V lubricating oil base stock, as determined by a CEC L-109-16 Bio-Diesel Oxidation Bench test. The lubricating oils are useful as passenger vehicle engine oil (PVEO) products or commercial vehicle engine oil (CVEO) products.
