Abstract: The present disclosure relates to passenger car engine lubricating oil compositions and methods of lubricating a crankcase of a passenger car engine with such lubricating oil compositions effective to achieve fuel economy improvement when using select calcium sulfonate-based compounds combined with one or more oil-soluble molybdenum compounds in ultra-low viscosity engine oils.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to engine lubricating oil compositions and methods of lubricating a diesel internal combustion engine effective to achieve robust performance in both durability (i.e., piston cleanliness) and improved fuel economy. In one aspect, the engine lubricating oil compositions herein have a composition effective to achieve passing piston cleanliness pursuant to CEC L-117-20 (i.e., the VW TDi3 test) and to achieve a positive fuel economy increase as measured pursuant to JASO M 366, and preferably a fuel economy improvement as measured pursuant to JASO M 366 of at least about 0.5 percent. The engine lubricating oil compositions herein may have a viscosity grade of 0W-8, 0W-12, 0W16, and/or 0W-20.

Abstract: 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).

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to lubricating compositions including effective amounts of molybdenum from an oil-soluble molybdenum compound and a magnesium boost in the detergent system to achieve passing motor friction and valve train wear performance.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes lubricant compositions effective to reduce lead corrosion through an admixture of lubricant additives including at least a base oil of lubricating viscosity, a dispersant, a friction modifier, and boron-containing compound.
