The invention provides a lubricating composition comprising an oil of lubricating viscosity, 0.1 wt % to 10 wt % of an overbased detergent, and 0.01 wt % to 5 wt % of a non-hydroxy terminated acylated polyalkylene oxide. The invention further relates to a method of lubricating a mechanical device (such as an internal combustion engine) with the lubricating composition. The invention further relates to the use of the non-hydroxy terminated acylated polyalkylene oxide to provide at least one of (i) improved sludge handling, (ii) reduced lead or copper corrosion, (iii) increased oxidation resistance, (iv) improved acid control, (v) reduced wear (such as cam wear or lifter wear), (vi) retention of total base number of the lubricant, and/or (vii) improved seal compatibility in an internal combustion engine. |
