The present disclosure relates to passenger car motor oil lubricating oil compositions having select dispersant and detergent systems to improve at least one of deposits, sludge, oxidization, and wear when using a blend of API Group II base oils with one or more API Group III and/or API Group IV base oils. The dispersant systems herein includes select amounts of boron, nitrogen, and total base number contributions that surprisingly achieve performance even when including higher amounts of the API Group II base oils in the lubricants.

A method for producing a lubricant in producing an overbased calcium sulfonate, which is converted from the vaterite form into the calcite form and, finally, a calcium sulfonate grease is produced by heating the mixture. A lubricant may comprise at least one ester composition, calcium carbonate and at least one overbased alkylbenzene sulfonate. The basicity of the mixture is limited during the preparation of the overbased calcium sulfonate to a TBN of at most 550 mg KOH/g and during the conversion of the calcium sulfonate to a TBN of at most 450 mg KOH/g. Both the calcium sulfonate and the grease containing said calcium sulfonate may be produced exclusively on an ester basis, so that the end product does not contain any mineral oil and is therefore easily and completely biodegradable.

The present disclosure relates to lubricating compositions achieving piston cleanliness pursuant to CEC L-117-20 (VW TDi3) that fail to achieve desired piston cleanliness pursuant to CEC L-078-99 (VW TDi2).

The present disclosure relates to lubricating compositions having a stable viscosity upon oxidization through select amounts and relationships of detergent metals and soap contents.

The present disclosure relates to lubricating compositions having a stable viscosity upon oxidization through select amounts and relationships of detergent metals and soap contents.

A lubricating composition includes an oil of lubricating viscosity, an N-alkylated dianiline compound, and at least one of a) an ashless antioxidant, and b) an overbased calcium detergent. The ashless antioxidant may be selected from a diarylamine antioxidant, a phenolic antioxidant, and combinations thereof. The lubricating composition may contain less than 0.15 weight percent of phosphorus.

The present invention provides a lubricating oil composition containing a base oil (A), zinc dithiophosphate (B), a metal sulfonate (C), and an ashless friction modifier (D) containing a boronated alkenyl succinimide (D1), which is to be used for a machine equipped with at least one of a wet type brake and a wet type clutch. The lubricating oil composition is not only excellent in oxidation stability but also favorable in an effect for suppressing the generation of squeal and braking properties, and is suitably applicable to machines equipped with a wet type brake or wet type clutch.
