You can share with them that you are not sure if the car will pass smog and they can try to do a few basic things to gauge right off the bat which we appreciated. Other places may do re-test for free if you do the initial smog check with them (but possibly higher in overall price) so keep that in mind.

It's not very fun getting that smog check slip from the DMV but Alen gets it all done in less than 10 minutes. Usually there isn't a long line and he works super fast.

There was no pressure, but the place is a chain so I think they will always put out the idea of an upsell, but that's how chains are. I didn't mind and didn't take everything, but I felt like the employees were also really helpful and straightforward. I was always a Jiffy Lube person, but now I am switching to this place.

From the moment we got there, I noticed how organized, happy, and how everyone worked well together. I was very impressed with additional services they offered. I got my window wipers changed, tire rotation and tire pressure. Thank you to Liam and Alex for your assistance and for leading such a great team. I also want to share something minor, as I was driving on the freeway my Tire Pressure Monitoring System alert turned on. I was able to go the Valvoline in West Covina- thank you Ulysses, Hector and Vanessa for your great customer service and checking my Tire pressure and resetting my TPMS. With all this being said, I highly recommend Valvoline team in Pasadena and West Covina. Thank you! See you next oil change!

Brought my lifted Duramax into Glendale Lube Center for an oil change and fuel filter replacement…read moreand immediately realized my truck was probably the smallest ego in the parking lot. Most shops see this thing pull up and suddenly everybody disappears to 'lunch,' but not here. Maria and Cesar handled it like absolute veterans. Maria was at the front desk looking so good I almost forgot why I came in there in the first place. Customer service was flawless she had the whole place running smoother than my truck after the service. Meanwhile Cesar looked like the final boss of diesel mechanics. Dude walked up to the truck like he'd wrestled lifted suspensions in hand-to-hand combat before breakfast. I'm pretty sure at one point they needed FAA clearance to work underneath my truck, but somehow they got the oil change and fuel filter done fast, clean, and without launching a socket into orbit. Truck came back running perfect, no leaks, no problems, and no 'check engine light surprise package' two miles later. Honestly Glendale Lube Center feels less like a lube shop and more like a Fast & Furious side quest. Great people, great vibes, and solid work. Maria and Cesar definitely made the experience legendary.

I brought my 2018 Chevy Silverado Duramax to Glendale Lube Center for an oil change, and I'll be…read morehonest... I expected them to call the fire department just to reach the hood. My truck is on a 12-inch lift with 42-inch tires, which basically means it's less of a truck and more of a mobile observation tower. Small children look at it the way people look at monster trucks at a county fair. Most oil change places take one look at it and suddenly say things like "our lift is down" or "we don't service... aircraft carriers." Not these guys. They walked out, looked up at the truck like they were inspecting a skyscraper, nodded, and got to work like it was a completely normal Tuesday. One of the techs climbed up there like a Navy SEAL scaling a building. Next thing I know, oil change done, no drama, no weird upsells, and nobody needed a ladder from Home Depot. Truck runs great, still sits high enough to change the weather pattern in Glendale, and I'll definitely be coming back. 10/10. If your truck is ridiculously tall and slightly irresponsible like mine, these are your people.

I noticed I had a headlight out when I left my apartment. I decided to drop by Del Mar Auto before I went home. I pulled up and was greeted as I got out of my car. I explained the situation to Hutch. Before I could even get my hood open Hutch returned with a lightbulb. He worked quickly and before I knew it, my headlight bulb was replaced. I paid my bill and made an appointment for other problems I noticed with my car. It's nice to go to someone that cares about your safety with the quality work that they do at Del Mar Auto. Honesty is not always found when dealing with mechanical issues. Easy to notice on the corner of Del Mar Boulevard and Allen Avenue. I think they care about my car as much as I do. I always try to make an appointment to save time.

All I can tell you is these guys know what they're talking about. And they don't make you feel small to help themselves seem like the experts. They're true masters at their craft.. radiators and auto services. Humble and incredible execution EVERY TIME!. And talk about nice as can be. I've been to many mechanics around LA, many with 5 star ratings. All bad. One wanted to replace my ENGINE, kid you not, because THEY put my thermostat ($20 part) back in upside down and it caused an overheat condition! Most house moms don't know any better. "Oh my blinker fluid is low?" Avoid the f around and find out shops! They're out there, lurking. Take my word for it. Give yourself PEACE OF MIND & COME TO DEL MAR AUTO where they literally treat you like family! Excellent Excellent Excellent!!
