Abstract: A lubricating oil composition exhibiting improved low temperature anti-wear performance and improved fuel economy and fuel economy retention properties, which comprises: (a) an oil of lubricating viscosity; (b) at least one calcium detergent; (c) at least one oil soluble molybdenum compound; (d) at least one nitrogen containing friction modifier; and (e) at least one zinc dihydrocarbyldithiophosphate compound, wherein the composition has a NOACK volatility of about 15.5 wt. % or less and contains from about 0.058 to 0.58 wt. % calcium from the calcium detergent, molybdenum in an amount up to about 350 ppm from a molybdenum compound, and phosphorus in an amount up to about 0.1 wt. % from a zinc dihydrocarbyldithiophosphate compound.

Abstract: A lubricating oil composition is disclosed comprising at least 10% by weight of the total oil composition of an ester of phthalic acid having a viscosity index less than 100. The lubricating oil composition has improved fuel economy and wear performance.

Abstract: A lubricating oil composition comprising oil, and an additive combination comprising a poly alpha-olefin polymer dispersant with a number average molecular weight above 2500, and a metal dihydrocarbyl dithiophosphate sufficient to yield a phosphorous content of up to 0.1 percent weight based on the total weight of the oil. The poly alpha-olefin polymer can be ethylene alpha-olefin copolymer such as ethylene-1-butene or ethylene-1-butene-hydrocarbyl polyamine. Preferably, the ethylene-1-butene-hydrocarbyl polyamine has a number average molecular weight of about 3300.
