Valvoline Instant Oil Change

I work in the area and thought I check these guys out… reviews are right. Fast and friendly. This will now be my oil change place.

I’ve been here twice now for an oil change and the process is very easy. Everyone is so nice and friendly and the service is very fast. They aren’t pushy for anything extra, which was nice. Great service. I’ll definitely come again.

Needed an oil changed thought I would stop here since it was down the street from my job and since it only take 30 minutes I was like why the hell not! The gentlemen who work there are super friendly and nice. I didn’t have a coupon but I did check in so I was able to use that plus the guy gave me a extra $ 10 off. The air filter are expensive as previous Unilocaler’s stated. However they did top off all my other fluids for free. They even gave me an coupon for my next visit which I will definitely use.

AMAZING SERVICE! Big shout out to Eddie and Marvin specifically for making my oil change experience fast, efficient and so nice! Definitely coming back, thank youuu so much!

I bought a Groupon for an oil change thinking that was all I needed to pay for. I was wrong. On top of the $ 19.99, I was charged with another $ 22. When I asked what it was for, i was told it was for labor and disposable fee. There was nothing written on Groupon that I had to pay more for labor. However, there was a disposable fee of $ 1.49. I’m giving a 2-​star because they did do the oil change. I’m scoring low because I wasn’t told until they were done that I had to pay extra. I don’t recommend this place for an oil change.

Marvin is the best! As you pull up, someone comes to greet you with a smile :) which I think is great customer service. The whole «15 min oil change» is pretty much true. The only thing is waiting in line FOR that 15 min oil change. But I mean you can’t really complain because would you rather do it in about 45 mins or leave your car possibly overnight at a mechanics? I rest my case lol

Super fast and friendly service! Extremely professional and honest. There was no gimmicks or tricks to try to get me to pay for unnecessary service. Just real legit! When they say they’re quick, they mean just that! I was in and out in no time at all. They even took the time to answer my questions and explain what they were doing! I will definitely be calling in to corporate to brag on the wonderful service that I received! I can definitely say they are the beat in South bay!

This will be my new spot for oil changes. They are very professional, organized, they do a great job and fast. They checked everything from my lights to my battery to toping off my fluid. Very happy. I would recommend to anyone.

Super fast service. In and out in about 10 minutes which is very important to me. My usual mechanic wants my car in the morning and then I don’t get it back until the afternoon. Here, I just went on my lunch hour and still had time to get food after. It is about $ 10 more but to me, the time saved and keeping my car was well worth it!
Everyone seemed friendly. They had a few items they recommended for my car’s mileage but it wasn’t a hard sell or anything. I will definitely go back.

Great service. Very professional and super quick. They don’t try to pressure you into anything either. Completely hassle free. Love it!

In and out in 10 minutes, well run crew! Way to go! $ 6 to top off water fluid, that might be to steep if it’s off by a bit.

In and out. Easy, peezy. They did try hays with the up sell, but they took my «No’s» in stride. Seriously, it was only 16 minutes from the time I pulled in until I drove off, and I didn’t even have to get out the car.

The oil change service is typical, check fluids, lights, the usual things, but my regular service was over $ 40! Overpriced! But the service guy was nice, and you can sit in your car WHILE they do the service, it was different, but not worth the cost…

I am extremely lazy, especially about routine life things like getting the oil changed. Valvoline provides the entire service without me having to get out of my car. So yes please! Just make sure to opt out of them replacing your air filter. It’s easy to do yourself, and it costs $ 10 less if you just buy the filter at Autozone down the street and ask them to install it for you.

Passed this place many times and thought wow a drive through oil change place. Decided to come in today and will come back in 3,000 miles or 3 months whichever comes first.
You stay in your car as they check your lights, battery, fluids and change your oil. They never pressured me in to buying anything extra. Friendly service and fast. The gentlemen there worked as a perfectly oiled machine. The whole thing took no more than 15 minutes.

This might be a bit long but this is how they take care of their customers.
I went in for a quick oil change and long story short, they broke off my drain nut and had part of the nut stuck. Well the tech there said it was due to the last mechanic that have stripped the nut and when Valvoline tech tried to take the nut out they said is was hard to get out and decided to put it back in which at that time the bolt head broke off.
Sorry but i didnt believe that. Took my car to my mechanic and he was able to get the broken piece out and also added «Threads are perfectly fine and nothings stripped, possibility was they tighten it instead of loosen it which highly could have caused this. «
Here’s what i want to say about how Valvoline treated me. I called their corp office about this, since i thought i would need a new oil pan, which would’ve ran me about $ 1000 (yes a new one. drilling will leave aluminum IN the oil pan) and the franchise owner called me within a few hours. His name is Rene and so i told him what exactly happened. Also told him that there’s no way to break a bolt head without using HULK force. This was BEFORE my mechanic touched my car and got everything out. He then called me back within a few hours and said «We will cover up to $ 900 since his mechanic can do it for less than 1K. i agreed and said…“i’d rather have my tech do this and i’ll pay for the difference» He was ok with that. So instead of a $ 1000 bill, it turned out to be $ 130 which i would’ve never known at the start of all this.
My point here is… we’ve all been though shady oil change/​mechanic and by Rene making this right and being honest while willing to pay for the entire cost to replace the oil pan, he’s earned my business and trust that when issues like this happens, i can trust he will do ALL he can to make things right.

Valvoline was a surprisingly good experience. Yeah sure, you’re paying $ 10 more than usual. But you literally don’t leave your car, they’re done in 10 minutes and you’re free to resume your life.
I just said no to all their other options (ie air filter, because that’s like $ 5 and you can do it yourself in 2 minutes). I suppose the best reflector of my experience is that I would go here for my next oil change. It was that easy and fast. My time and not having to drop off and then pick up my car is worth $ 10.
Use the Unilocal coupons. And no, they don’t stack, I asked haha.

Quick and simple, although a bit on the pricey side. It’s a drive-​thru oil change spot, so you wait in your car while they do the work and you can actually see what they’re doing. Super friendly service, I was in and out in ten minutes. Since it was my first time, they gave me an extra $ 10 discount, topped off my coolant for free, and gave me a coupon for my next visit.

Wow! I was very impressed.
I was in and out in about 10 minutes.
Both gentlemen who helped me were very friendly and helpful. Dylan took care of the charges while the supervisor Eddie checked everything under my hood. There was another gentleman underneath my car in the pit who perform my oil changed but I forgot his name.
I usually do my own oil changes but since I moved I think I am done with that (no garage not space) I like to know what goes on in my vehicle so I asked a few questions and they were answered. The guys were telling me exactly what was going on with my car and what they were doing to it. They topped me off with a windshield fluid and charged me only $ 4 for the topping off of the coolant fluid.
And Eddie also gave me a discount for being a first time customer at that location even after I mentioned the Unilocal discount! Sweet.
Thanks & great job guys!
Will come back again.

I was about 200 miles overdue for an oil change and decided to come here. I live about 3 minutes away from this location and they close at 7pm. Today is a Monday.
Beasted thru LA traffic (cos that’s where I work, like a fool) and made it here about 625pm. I was welcomed by Cesar & Michael. Both guys knew exactly what they were doing and made appropriate recommendations and explained pricing thoroughly. This entire experience for me was easy breasy with their help and expertise.
You wanna know the best part?! I SAT IN MY CAR THE ENTIRE TIME! I didn’t have to wait an hour or get shuttled home like I usually do at Acura. 15 mins tops and I was on my way with clean synthetic oil, and they topped off my coolant for $ 4. My whip is a smooth operator once again. This will be my go to place for servicing my vehicle.
Bonus tip: I used the coupon offer through Unilocal and got $ 10 off my entire service! Whoop! Keep up the great work guys! You have gained a new customer!
