5-Minute Oil Change

This review is for the 5 Minette Oil Change On Coursey Blvd in Baton Rouge not (Bluebonnet)
I went there on Sunday 3÷6÷16 only one car was being serviced, I was greeted by a young man
who said what can I do for you POP ! when I told him he told me to pop
the hood and he walked away. a few minutes later, about (5) another young man approached
and told me that they were out of oil and should have a new shipment in by Monday.
NO KIDDING ! this really happened… Glad I did not let them touch my Car.

Great great service, ASK FOR CASEY !!! And SEAN. They made me feel so comfortable as a woman, trying to take care of my car. I felt like I got my money’s worth. They were so polite great attitudes and clean! Very very pleased !!! Very very !

Do not go here. I got my oil changed in mid July 2014. I am back at my regular service place in Texas and was told that 5– Minute Oil Change stripped my drain plug and replaced it without telling me. Repairing the damage is going to cost $ 400. Very unimpressed.

I love this place! I have a busy schedule and often don’t have time to go get my car serviced during usual business hours. 5-​Minute seems to be open later than most places, and you can’t beat not having to get out of your car! The employees are always helpful, friendly, and very professional. They keep track of the type of oil my car uses and make sure to check the level of my other fluids as well. They always offer me a drink while I wait, as well.
I have not had the problem of employees upselling me as other reviewers mentioned. Also– if you’re inclined to leave a tip, be sure to tell them before they run your card, because there’s no space for a tip on the final receipt!

This is a very convenient way to get your oil changed. I was able to get an oil change and then sit down for lunch in under an hour. The price was comparable to most, plus I had a coupon from their website. As with most places in this 21^st of centuries, I just showed it to them on my phone (save a tree). I purchased the cheapo oil, and with a $ 5 off coupon, the total was $ 33.
Jonathan is correct in that they will try to upsell you, but that’s the nature of all these types of business. It’s in the script and isn’t necessarily a rip off if you can’t do some things like change wipers yourself (BTW, learn. It’s really very easy). It wasn’t really a hard sell to me though. He told me that he suggested a transmission flush… and that theirs is the cheapest in town ($ 99), and that I needed a coolant flush. I knew about coolant, but was glad to hear about transmission b/​c I had no idea. Unfortunately for them I’ll be taking my car to Siegen Car Care for these more invasive types of maintenance.
Overall, my experience here was positive and extremely convenient without a huge markup for said convenience.

I have been several times, and I am generally ok with the service. I mostly go because I am typically in a hurry when I remember to get my oil changed. They are quick, and the prices are not too bad, and they will serve you a drink in your car while you wait.
There are a few pretty glaring problems with the business though. The first is that I am pretty sure that the technicians don’t really know much about cars. I once asked them if they could look at some minor aspect of my engine while they were already changing the oil, and they told me that they couldn’t.
I also don’t like how they always try to upsell you. I go in for an oil change, and they want me to buy new wiper blades and filters and anything else that is easy for them to change.
However, the biggest problem is that the last time I went in for an oil change, they put the reminder sticker in my windshield saying that I needed another oil change in 2,500 miles. I am going to need another oil change soon, and I doubt I will be back again.
Overall, they are convenient and reasonably priced, but be aware that they will try to upsell you. I would drop by if you need an oil change in a hurry, but that is about it, I would find a higher-​quality place that is more trust worthy.
