Formula 1 Fast Lube

Great service, friendly staff. I was in and out of there within just a few minutes. They even vacuumed my car and wow did they do a great job. I left feeling accomplished, having finally had my oil changed after being quite a bit overdue… and satisfied. My car was super clean, it felt good!

Came to get my oil changed and was waiting for about 15 minutes before anyone spoke to me, while the one guy was just blowing air with a leaf blower and the other was doing nothing.
A car pulled up and honked its horn at the employee with the leaf blower and the driver got out of the car and gave the employee a high five and hey talked while I sat there waiting to be spoken to.
The other «wannabe gangster» employee finally came up to my door and didn’t even greet me the first thing he said as I rolled down my window was «aye don’t be Rollin up here honking your horn» I said «that wasn’t me» then he looked at the other employee as if I was lying. He then said «alright then what can I help you with then» I said «nothing now, good bye».
Will never ever ever return and will advise all my friends and family to go elsewhere. Very ghetto place. Needs new employees.

Stopped by yesterday because my Subaru Outback was leaking oil. Technician looked at my car and told me an oil line was leaking.
I took the car to dealer because it was still under warranty. Dealer tech says hose is good. The leak is coming from the drain plug.
Went back to Formula 1 and they offered me a $ 10 discount but there price started so high they were more than the dealer even with the discount.
So after spending at least 2 hours I still have the leak. Don’t plan on returning to Formula 1 again.

Apparently, getting an oil change on the Saturday isn’t as easy as I might I had hoped. After calling around, I received a recommendation about this place from another service center. I called, and they said «first come first serve. (this is good news for me because I am doing this last minute on a busy day) fast forward to my experience: Everyone was really nice to me. They were not pushing they were polite even though I didn’t know what I was doing, and I left feeling good about what they did and what I spent. I would recommend this place, and I will be back again!

I went in to get my oil changed and fluids checked. They were super fast which was nice. A regular oil and filter change is $ 29. oil/​filter change with fluids topped off is about $ 38, $ 44 after tax. The workers were extremely nice il’l definitely be back! They even vacuumed my car.

I am absolutely INSULTED… I had my husband drop my vehicle for oil change 08.09.2013 as I was driving to Portland for business the next day. On Sunday I wanted to get rid of the bugs and found no washer fluid installed. I decided I’d phone them today and run it back in (receipt in hand) on my way home as I live nearby. In addition 08.12.13 my husband went to another Formula One near his job (North End) and they did oil change, complete with fluids topped AND VACUUM of vehicle. I just called a moment ago and asked about an oil change and was quoted $ 29.99. I then asked about topping fluids and was told it was «EXTRA». I asked how much extra. Guy says there is a special. I said I did pay for the special. I asked if there was a manager as I already had the oil change a few days ago, no fluids. The gentlemen states «THIS IS PRIVATELY OWNED and MANAGER IS AWAY AND WE CAN’T GIVE HIS NUMBER». I stated «No worries», I would never ask for someone’s number, but will you take my number and give it to him… PHONE THEN DISCONNECTED…
WOW… I will never go there ! and wouldn’t recommend anyone else going unless YOUR WALLET IS OPEN and you can go into the BAY and watch what is done to your car.

Bad place to take your vehicle, they put too much oil in my car, which can do damage to an engine. Also to top it off, I declined their upselling and to teach me a lesson they drilled a screw into my tire. In between the screw and the tire was a steel washer, someone had to hold that washer in place on the screw while they were screwing it into my tire in order for it to be there! It was so bumpy and noisy that I immediately pulled over thinking I had a flat tire, instead I found this screw. The guy that took payment from me was acting strange and there was two other gentlemen in the shop laughing as I drove my car off the rack and out the shop. At the time I thought it was a little strange, now it all makes sense. People shouldn’t do business this way, please don’t take your vehicle here!

I came here to get my oil changed… But I really came here so I could eat at Tommy’s while I waited.
The guy that did the change was professional in the manner of which he spoke… Even called me ma’am.
However…
Towards the end of the service, he started asking me about Hempfest. I uhhh… I have no idea dude. He got the idea because he saw a flyer in my door pocket that someone had left on my car, and instead of tossing it on the ground I put it in my «trash area.»
He also tried selling me on some services that I didn’t need yet. (Big surprise.)
I won’t be back. Not even Tommy’s can win me over for this place.

I have been here twice and each time has been great. I have a 350z and everytime I call Nissan for a oil change they never have any time… So from now on these are my guys. I worked with this guy Rocky both times and he was awesome… It was like he was a good friend… I hope he gets a raise because people like him are priceless… The prices are good for a synthetic oil change and they evened offered to top it off if I was low in the future.
Overall I am extremely happy with the service. If you need an oil change go here and you will realize what I have said is 110% accurate and true. Trust me.

So, I went in for my regular oil change… which was about 5 months late. OOPS! =X
They suggested an oil flush treatment. Ok.
Then they suggested a tranny flush. Sure why not.
On top of my oil change…$ 165.00
They didnt push me into anything I didnt need, and showed me colors of the fluids before and after the treatments. These guys know what they are doing.

Last time I go here. The staff spent so much time disassembling my vehicle to show me parts/​fluids I don’t need to replace that they forgot to fill the fluids that came with my oil change. Are you kidding me? Do the job I paid you for and maybe I’ll consider an additional service. Don’t do the job I paid you for and try to sell me on more? I won’t be back…

I’ve been to this place half a dozen times and for the most part, you get what is promised. They have cheap oil changes and get you in and out. They do try to up-​sell you on air filters, etc., but so does everyone else. The reason for the bad review, the last time I went they stripped my oil pan. This is what happens if the bolt is put in wrong or overtorked. The sad part was that nobody would take responsibility for it. My 95 325is had its last oil change from this place so either they striped it then or they stripped it this time. I know they stripped it this time because my car never leaked oil. The day that this happened, I dropped the car off and walked over to Denny’s for lunch. When I got back they told me they couldn’t change my oil cause my oil pan was stripped. The manager is the one who told me the pan was stripped and I had no idea what that meant. So he goes over the scenarios of overtorking and damaged threads and it occurs to me «how do I know these guys didn’t strip the pan». So I talk to the kid who was working on my car and he says he never touched the release bolt?!? So I ask him «how do you know the oil pan is stripped? He says he saw oil on the end of the bolt. Long story short, My car never leaked oil but now it was leaking oil. These guys were the ones to do the last oil change on my car yet they claim I could have had the oil changed somewhere else (cause I’m not one of these suckers who gets oil every 3000 miles). I could tell the kid stripped the pan just by his behavior. An innocent man has nothing to hide, this guy was trying to avoid me and was extremely withdrawn from our conversation and after he answered my first question he walked away from me. Bottom line is, they got a bunch of teenagers changing alot of oil. If they fuck up your car they won’t take responsibility so be forewarned. BTW, I would’ve been much more pissed but I was trading the car in so I didn’t care as much.

23.09 plus tax is cheap.
Refuse the other stuff… unless you really need it.
Quick.
Staff friendly enough.
