Valvoline Instant Oil Change

Dealership Prices for Fast Food Service
Why you should go: This location Valvoline is fast, reliable, efficient (a big one for me), and has a great group of hard working guys.
Why you should not go: I have taken a Volkswagen and Toyota car to a Valvoline and the cost of the oil change ALWAYS is at least $ 20 more expensive then my dealership, in addition to no matter what I say about recommendations in the user manual my car always seems to ‘need’ synthetic oil. At least with my dealer I get a plush waiting room, extra fluids topped off, and a free goofy flavored coffee from a Kureg machine.
I only went to this location for the convenience, but $ 20 for «instant» is beyond my price point. Thanks for the one oil wonder!

They’ve been changing my oil ever since I’ve had a car. They always changed my dad’s oil, and my moms too. Really sweet guys and really nice service. They remember your face.

Man. These guys just will NOT take «No» for an answer. I don’t want all the extra stuff you’re trying to sell me. I want my oil changed. Quickly.
Bring your patience with you when you come here. The guys here care a lot about their customers– that much is evident. But they also care a lot about trying to sell you different products and services that you may or may not be interested in. I don’t like being hounded. It’s a drag.
I wanted to give them 3 stars because of all the extra I had to put up with, but since they are really good at what they do and they do seem to go the extra mile, I’ll keep it at 4.

Excellent fast service! Friendly and courteous. I’ll definitely be back! Nice to have a regular place to go to — which is important for good car maintenance.

Instant? Eh, not quite, especially since my Volkswagen is, in good German tradition, practically an armored vehicle. But once they penetrate its shields, they drain the old, pour in the new, fill up various fluids, check the tires, and generally make my car more healthy. It isn’t the cheapest option out there, but you can usually find a coupon to knock $ 10 or so off the final price (which depends heavily on which type of oil you prefer).
I hate that they subtly try to upsell you by suggesting various auxiliary services, but they aren’t pushy about it. Befitting their name, they instantly accept «No, thanks,» as your answer.
