Valvoline Instant Oil Change

These guys are awesome! Fast and efficient. They check everything for you. Today I went in for an oil change on my Mercury moutaineer and after I had already paid, they realized I was low on coolant. They filled it up for me anyways without charging more! I’ll be bring my Hyundai here as well!

I had come here because my brother said it was a good place to get oil changed. He was wrong. A week later passes and today my dad took it out for a drive. He was driving it home and it stopped on him. He took it to the mechanics and they told him the oil was completely drained because someone forgot to do something. Not sure what it was but point is my car no longer works thanks to these guys because they «forgot» to do something. So i DO NOT recommend this shitty place.

My light came and I needed a oil change asap. I was driving by saw a guy with a sign that said 15 minute oil change. These places make me very nervous, but I thought I would give them a chance. I did not have the time to leave my car or sit in a waiting room for hours so I said to my son let’s try it. As soon as they scan your car in a timer starts. My son was keeping an eye on that lol he said it wasn’t even 15 minutes. The girl Kiki was very nice. I checked in on Unilocal the offer that came up was for additional services, but she gave me another coupon offer. They did not suggest extra things. This was the best decision I made and my son thought it was cool he could just stay in the back seat. I would recommend this place and will be returning in the future when I don’t have the time to go to my normal place. Thank you for making this so convenient and hassle free. This is a Moms dream come true!

I was on a time crunch and needed an oil change — Pronto! My regular mechanic down the street was not available. I saw a sign which read «Drive Through Oil Change». This got my attention. Pronto!
The experience of a drive through oil change is pretty cool. Everyone should try this at least one time.
The team at the Anaheim Street location was very professional and courteous. They were very clear in what services you are purchasing. I was in and out of there and happy in less than 45 minutes from the time I pulled into the queue for service.
Go check ‘em out!

Searched Unilocal and saw the mixed reviews so I was a little hesitant on visiting. But because I needed one ASAP, we went anyway. Came here in desperate need of an oil change. Went in on a weekday, around 830ish or so and no wait.
Luckily, found a Groupon deal ($ 21 for basic oil change) and went. Asked the tech if they would honor it right away and they agreed (so relieved!).
As a first time experience, it was cool. Sat in the car, the techs checked everything, recommended some optional services to which I declined, got the oil changed in about 15 minutes all for $ 21, nothing more. Pretty content and will likely come back.
P. S. very cool to see a chick in the automotive maintenance industry, who knows her stuff, you go girl!

I love this place. It’s so convenient because you’re in and out in fifteen minutes and you don’t even have to get out of your car. I’ve been here quite a few times and will continue going here. It’s my go-​to :) all the employees are very pleasant and with a lot of personality. I was helped by Brad on Friday and I happen to mention to him that my steering wheel vibrates so much if I go over 40MPH and he quickly knew how to fix the issue; he said I needed a tire rotation which only cost me $ 25 and now my car runs so smoothly. Thanks Brad!!! Another thing I love is that they always have dog treats that my dog loves: D I highly recommend this place. They never try to sell you on services your car doesn’t need

Awesome technicians and great customer service. Very knowledgeable staff. Manny helped me out and took care of my car. Not only did he answer all the questions I had; he also gave me a little more knowledge of what was been done to my car. I will definitely recommend for you to get your oil change at this location. They work fast and look for ways for you to save money. It’s like driving through a drive-​through.

All the guys here are extremely energetic and polite! It’s kinda fun listening to them shout back and forth to eachother, gets a little confusing sometimes when they’re giving you direction in the midst of it all. They work fast and efficient and they work as a team. I almost wanted it to take longer just to talk with the guys a bit, but they had other cars to help. I got a Groupon for 31 $ but had to pay a few dollars difference. I tried to tip but they wouldn’t accept it. Last time I took my car to Toyota and they over torqued and damaged everything they touched. Over all, Valvoline was a lightning quick and easy oil change and I will choose them over Toyota from now on.

We brought my girlfriend car her and … These guys are awesome … usually I don’t like going to these places buuut. I would even bring my car here. There quick there fun, they all have personality. We took her car to Toyota once before and… they were crappie sooo i think we found a great place for her to go to.

They get things done quickly and are always ridiculously nice. They even gave my dog a treat while we waited.
Also, Danny is a babe, and super helpful.

I’ve never had such fast service! The technicians were polite and explained everything going on; I never even had to get out of my car. I came in for a full synthetic oil change from a Groupon I found. I was never pressured into doing additional services, which I appreciate since I do have a mechanic for that. One of the technicians happened to be training another at the time and took the time to teach along the way, which to me is a sign of great business practices. My car ran great afterwards and I got better gas mileage than I had been getting. I do use full synthetic which is pricey, just wish they had better deals and prices all the time.

I went in to get an oil change only. Of course they do their routine check up to scam you out of more money. Well that’s exactly what they tried doing to me. They told me BOTH my brake lights were out, and if I wanted them replaced for a crazy amount of money. I said, «no thank you, I’ll change them myself.» So I went to a building with reflecting mirrors, and both my brake lights were working fine!
Beware! Always get a 2^nd opinion before doing any work.

Great place and helpful staff! It’s great to know that there is a trustworthy place to get your oil changed near where I live.

Awesome technicians, knowledgeable staff, excellent customer service. All Valvolines are a tad pricier than say Jiffy Lube, but I’m a firm believer of you get what you pay for.
The team here works quickly, walk you through the whole process, talk to you in language you can understand — couldn’t ask for better customer service.
Easily found our new go-​to spot for oil changes and regular maintenance.
Thank you to Cameron and everyone working at the spot on Loma and Anaheim!

Love this place. It’s clean. It’s quick and they are super nice. I didn’t feel like they were trying to hustle me because I am a woman. The manager Jimmy was really awesome and oh so nice! They even gave us coloring books and crayons when they saw my boys in the car! It’s great that you can just sit in your car the whole time while they service your car. It was the best oil change ever! They did a light check and discovered that we had a faulty brake light and changed the light right there on the spot. We were in and out within 20 minutes. Will definitely go back again.

I’m a procrastinator and waited until 5PM on a Saturday night to get my much needed oil change. I called 4 other places in Long Beach first and they were all closed. Just when I had almost lost all hope I was greeted on the phone promptly by a friendly gentlemen from Valvoline.
I get there, and unknowingly start to park in the lot. A gentlemen walks over to my car and tells me I can actually just pull up to one of the car ports and they’ll help me there. I literally waited 5 minutes (if that) until the person in front of me is finished. I’m directed to pull forward and learn I don’t even have to get out of my car… AWESOME. I hate sitting in cold, uncomfortable waiting rooms staring at other people waiting for their cars too. No thanks.
There were 3 different gentlemen who helped me out, and they were ALL, SO polite and helpful. Usually I feel like guys are trying to take advantage of girls at auto shops like these (assuming we don’t know anything about cars.) But I didn’t feel that way AT ALL here. They even checked all my lights and found out I had a break light out… which I didn’t even know about! Good lookin out! And only $ 14 to replace the bulb quickly… perfect. They also checked all my tires air pressure and filled the ones that needed it. I remembered to use the coupon listed on their Unilocal page and it was swiftly applied to my bill. My visit was no longer than 20 minutes before I was sent off with an oil change, new break light, and smile =)
All in all, GREAT customer service! You guys have definitely gained a customer in me!

Drive through oil change! You can stay in your car and they check extra stuff like tire pressure!
The guys here were super nice and we got done in 15 minutes! Great service!

Came here after purchasing a groupon a while ago and had EXCELLENT service! I love that I get to sit in my car during the oil change. I went again today. This time with my boyfriend and they remembered me!
Both times I have been here there has been NO wait and I have been done within 30 minutes.
Yes, they do try to recommend additional services that you need which is common, but I never once felt pressured. Camron is trustworthy and always honest! Actually all of the staff is super enthusiastic. They seem to really enjoy what they do and it shows. I refuse to go anywhere else!
Make sure you get the groupon!

The service was great here. They didn’t even give me a hard time that I was clueless about the «drive thru» service model (I tried to park first and then tried to get out of my car, silly me). Two other places had been busts trying to get a simple oil change and tire rotation. I figured this place would be cheap and I would get my tires rotated next time.
Turns out they do more than just oil changes. They were able to rotate my tires (with me still in the car!) on top of everything else. And he walked me through all the recommendations, but emphasized that it was something to think about, but I shouldn’t feel pressured if I didn’t want to do the service today. Cameron was on point with his customer service, as well as Brad who directed my car into the garage and showed me the oil dipstick. It was reassuring to hear them call off everything they were checking, which reassured me they were indeed doing what they claimed.
It was pricier than I expected for a basic oil change and tire rotation (nearly $ 70) when at some area places the tire rotation is included, but I willingly paid for the convenience of the service and the quality of the customer care. Even at the price I will likely return for future services.

I usually go to valvoline because of their quick service and there isn’t too much of an up sell on car maintenance silliness! I can usually expect to be in and out in about 10 — 15 minutes. This was not the case here. I came in and waited about 10 minutes for the guy to finish up selling products to the SUV in front of me, at the valvoline by my house I usually pull up and get an oil change no wait or anything. Finally when it’s my turn the guy tries to convince me that I need the premium oil because it’s so much better than conventional oil, I politely decline as I always do and ask for the conventional.
He then pulls up a monitor on the maintenance my car needs all unnecessary as I just had my car serviced last week. I informed the guy of that and he asked if I wanted to do a tire rotation, no thanks dude I’m really just here for an oil change. He then pulls out my engine air filter and ask if I want to change it because mine was dirty, no thanks I know how to do that myself! This entire time no one had started my oil change! Finally they start my oil change after 10 minutes of selling me services I did not need! He then asks if he wants a coolant top off, once again no thanks!
I came here for a quick oil change NOT TO BE SOLD SERVICES I DONT NEED!
