The paper presents Elastohydrodynamic lubrication line contact problem with bio-based oil as lubricants for an isothermal case. The fast convergence method for the solution of Elastohydrodynamic lubrication line contact problem with seed oil as lubricant is analyzed using Multigrid, Multilevel Multi-Integration with the influence of different load and speed. The result shows that the use of these oils has the potential to substitute the function of common lubricant so as to reduce dependence on conventional oil lubricants. The results obtained are comparable and the pressure spikes are smooth as compared to the earlier findings which are shown in terms of graphs and tables.
