    [0001] The present invention relates to the field of lubricating compositions and base oils for motor vehicles. The invention provides a lubricating composition for an engine, gearbox or vehicle bridge. This lubricant composition comprises an oil soluble polymer which is a particular polyalkyl glycol or polyalkylene glycol (PAG).
    [0002] The invention also relates to the use of this lubricant composition for reducing the fuel consumption of a vehicle equipped with an engine, a bridge or a gearbox lubricated with this lubricating composition or this PAG. particular. Engine developments and performance of engine lubricating compositions are inextricably linked. The more the engines have a complex design, the higher the efficiency and the optimization of the consumption, the more the engine lubricating composition is solicited and must improve its performance. Very high compression in the engine, higher piston temperatures, particularly in the area of the upper piston ring, modern and maintenance-free valve controls with hydraulic lifters, and very high temperatures in the engine space demand increasingly lubricants for modern engines. The conditions of use of gasoline engines and diesel engines include extremely short journeys as well as long journeys. In fact, 80% of the journeys of Western European cars are less than 12 kilometers while vehicles cover annual mileages of up to 300 000 km. The emptying intervals are also very variable, from 5,000 km for some small diesel engines to up to 100,000 km on modern commercial diesel engines.
    [0003] Lubricating compositions for motor vehicles must therefore have improved properties and performance. Engine lubricating compositions must therefore fulfill many objectives that are sometimes contradictory. These objectives are derived from the five main functions of the engine lubricating compositions: lubrication, cooling, sealing, corrosion protection and pressure transmission. Lubrication of the parts sliding on each other plays a decisive role, in particular to reduce friction and wear, including fuel savings. Another essential requirement of engine lubricating compositions is related to the environmental aspects. It has indeed become essential to reduce oil consumption as well as fuel consumption, particularly in order to reduce emissions by 002. It is also important to reduce emissions of flue gases, for example by formulating oils. so that the catalyst remains perfectly functional throughout its service life. It is also important to limit or avoid the use of toxic additives in order to reduce or limit their elimination, for example by reprocessing or combustion. The nature of automotive engine lubricating compositions has an influence on pollutant emissions and fuel consumption. Engine lubricating compositions for energy-saving automobiles are often referred to as "fuel-eco" (FE) in English terminology. Such "fuel-eco" oils have been developed to meet these new needs. The reduction of energy losses is therefore a constant search in the field of automotive lubricants. For their part, gearbox or deck oils, and more generally gear oils, must meet numerous requirements, particularly those related to driving comfort (perfect gearshift, quiet operation, trouble-free operation, high reliability ), to the service life of the assembly (reduction of wear during cold passage, no deposits and high thermal stability, safety of lubrication at high temperatures, stable viscosity situation and absence of shear loss, long service life) and consideration of environmental aspects (lower fuel consumption, reduced oil consumption, low noise, easy evacuation). These are the requirements for manual transmission oils and axle gears. Concerning the requirements imposed on automatic gearbox oils (ATF oils for automatic transmission fluids), because of their use, it appears for ATF oils very specific requirements which are a great constancy of the coefficient of friction throughout the stay for optimal gear shifting, excellent aging stability for long emptying intervals, good viscosity-temperature performance to ensure perfect operation with a hot engine and a cold engine and sufficient sealing compatibility with various elastomers used in transmission seals so that they do not swell, shrink or embrittle. Moreover, in the automotive field, the search for the reduction of CO2 emissions requires the development of products that reduce friction in gearboxes and bridge differentials. This reduction of friction in the gearboxes and in the bridge differentials must be obtained for different operating conditions. These friction reductions must concern the internal friction of the lubricant but also the friction of the elements constituting the gearboxes or bridge differentials, in particular the metal elements.
    [0004] As vehicle transmission oils, refined petroleum products, hydrocracking oils or synthetic liquids, whether polyalphaolefins or esters, can be used. In some cases, polyglycols are also used, which generally have the disadvantage of not being or poorly miscible with other basic liquids.
    [0005] In order to achieve sufficient performance, vehicle transmission oils must also be supplemented with additives according to quality requirements, in particular high pressure additives. With regard to uses for vehicle engine lubrication, additives are also used. As coefficient-modifying additives, organometallic compounds, for example comprising molybdenum and in particular molybdenum sulphide, are commonly used. Molybdenum dithiocarbamates (MoDTC) can be mentioned as the major source of molybdenum. In addition, various viscosity index improvers (co) polymers in a lubricant composition are also known. It is necessary to provide alternative base oils, particularly oils having a high viscosity index (VI) as well as a low coefficient of traction.
    [0006] The desired lubricating compositions must have a high viscosity index in order to avoid cold energy losses due to friction but also to keep a sufficient lubricant film on the lubricated elements hot. A high viscosity index thus guarantees a lower drop in viscosity as the temperature increases. In a known manner, as lubricating compositions for vehicle engines, synthetic liquids are used, such as polyalphaolefin oils (PAO), esters and polyglycols; non-conventional mineral oils such as hydrocracked products; Conventional mineral oils; as well as their different mixtures. Thus, in the field of high VI bases with a low tensile coefficient, as lubricating compositions for vehicle engines, mixtures of PAO oils and esters are conventionally used, for example with a mass proportion of 'around 10 % ; mixtures of PAO oils and hydrocracked and hydroisomerized oils (group III or Gp III) or mixtures of PAO oils and hydrocracked and hydroisomerized oils with additives or base oils GTL (gasto- liquid or oils obtained from liquefied natural gas, for example by Fisher-Tropsch processes). Furthermore, it is common to encounter solubility problems when using PAG of the state of the art. The use of the PAGs of the state of the art is therefore generally limited to certain applications as industrial oils and not as engine oils or vehicle transmission. There is therefore a need to provide motor and vehicle transmission oils and lubricant compositions which provide a solution to some or all of the problems of the prior art lubricating oils or compositions. Thus, the invention provides a lubricating composition comprising at least one oil of formula (I) OCH3 (I) wherein - R represents a linear or branched C1-C30 alkyl group; m and n independently represent an average number ranging from 1 to 5.
