A composition comprising: (a) a medium comprising a solvent, a functional fluid, or combinations thereof; wherein the solvent is selected from the group consisting of aliphatic hydrocarbons, aromatic hydrocarbons, oxygen containing compositions, or mixtures thereof, or oils of lubricating viscosity, naphtha, toluene, xylene, or combinations thereof; wherein the functional fluid is selected from the group consisting of gear oils, transmissions oils, hydraulic fluids, engine oils, two cycle oils; metalworking fluid, fuels and mixtures thereof; and (b) at least 0.1 weight percent in the overall composition of a friction modifier component that is not fully soluble in the medium such that the friction modifier component causes the medium to have an NTU and/or JTU value above 80; wherein the friction modifier component is a fatty acid amide which is a C 8 -C 24 aliphatic monocarboxylic acid amide; and (c) a stabilizing component that is soluble in (a) and that interacts with (b) such that (b)'s solubility in (a) is improved, the improvement in solubility being measured by a lower NTU and/or JTU value compared to the composition without component (c); wherein the NTU and JTU values are measured using the US EPA method 180.1; wherein component (c), the stabilizing component, comprises: (i) an overbased detergent with a metal to substrate ratio of greater than 3:1 wherein the overbased detergent is optionally borated; (ii) an alkyl imidazoline; (iii) a hydrocarbyl phosphoric acid or acid ester, a hydrocarbyl thiophosphoric acid or acid ester, a hydrocarbyl dithiophosphoric acid or acid ester, an amine salt of one or more of these acids and acids esters, or combinations thereof; or (iv) an alkylbenzene sulfonate, wherein the alkyl group is derived from polyisobutylene; or combinations thereof; wherein the composition does not include any additional friction modifiers selected from the group consisting of esters of polyols, borated esters of polyols, fatty phosphites, borated fatty epoxides, sulfurized olefins, compounds formed by the reaction of a hydroxy-carboxylic acid with an alcohol and/or an amine, and mixtures thereof. (a) a medium comprising a solvent, a functional fluid, or combinations thereof; wherein the solvent is selected from the group consisting of aliphatic hydrocarbons, aromatic hydrocarbons, oxygen containing compositions, or mixtures thereof, or oils of lubricating viscosity, naphtha, toluene, xylene, or combinations thereof; wherein the functional fluid is selected from the group consisting of gear oils, transmissions oils, hydraulic fluids, engine oils, two cycle oils; metalworking fluid, fuels and mixtures thereof; and (b) at least 0.1 weight percent in the overall composition of a friction modifier component that is not fully soluble in the medium such that the friction modifier component causes the medium to have an NTU and/or JTU value above 80; wherein the friction modifier component is a fatty acid amide which is a C 8 -C 24 aliphatic monocarboxylic acid amide; and (c) a stabilizing component that is soluble in (a) and that interacts with (b) such that (b)'s solubility in (a) is improved, the improvement in solubility being measured by a lower NTU and/or JTU value compared to the composition without component (c); (i) an overbased detergent with a metal to substrate ratio of greater than 3:1 wherein the overbased detergent is optionally borated; (ii) an alkyl imidazoline; (iii) a hydrocarbyl phosphoric acid or acid ester, a hydrocarbyl thiophosphoric acid or acid ester, a hydrocarbyl dithiophosphoric acid or acid ester, an amine salt of one or more of these acids and acids esters, or combinations thereof; or (iv) an alkylbenzene sulfonate, wherein the alkyl group is derived from polyisobutylene; or combinations thereof; <EOS>
