Came here for a car inspection on a Tuesday morning and lemme tell ya - these folks are fast and…read moreefficient. It's a small place but seems quite equipped to manage a lot of car issues, and the gentleman who did my inspection that day (Charlie) was the sole person doing them, so he was cranking through a list of folks. They put your name on the clipboard when you arrive and just go straight down that list. I'd called beforehand to confirm their hours and theyd advised to come early so I came around 9a or so. I think the wait was about 15-20 mins? Really wasn't bad, I just fiddled with my phone and sat in my car. The actual inspection was also pretty fast, like 10 mins or maybe even a bit less. I appreciated the efficiency. Of note they do charge a 3% credit card fee. A lot of places do that nowadays, but that was really the only "surprise." They also offer a basic inspection ($12, basics to renew car reg) or a more thorough one for $18 where they check your wipers and lights etc.

Every once in a while, Austin reminds you why you fell in love with it in the first place--and…read moresurprisingly, this time it happened during an oil change. Let's be real: getting your oil changed usually ranks somewhere between "waiting at the DMV" and "realizing you forgot your charger at home." But Lube Pit Stop on South Lamar managed to turn it into the best oil change experience I've ever had in this city. And I don't say that lightly. From the moment I pulled in, the vibe was pure old-school Austin--friendly, unpretentious, and refreshingly human. No corporate script. No forced smiles. Just genuinely kind, courteous folks who seem to actually care about the people driving through their bays. Here's what really stood out: No upselling. None. Zero. Zilch. No "while we're at it..." scare tactics. No mystery fluids that suddenly must be replaced. Just honest work, clearly explained. Quick and efficient. I barely had time to scroll Yelp before they were done. In and out without feeling rushed or overlooked--an impressive balance. Kindness across the board. The entire team was polite, professional, and approachable in a way that feels increasingly rare. It wasn't flashy--it was sincere. And here's the kicker: when I drove away, I felt good. No second-guessing. No lingering "did I just get taken?" anxiety. Just the calm confidence that comes from dealing with people who do their job well and don't try to squeeze every extra dollar out of you. They also do state inspections, which is officially the cherry on top. One stop, no nonsense, handled by people you trust? That's a win in Austin traffic math. This is the kind of local business you root for. The kind you tell your friends about. The kind that quietly becomes your place without you even realizing it. Lube Pit Stop is officially who I'll be using from now on--and honestly, I hope they never change a thing. Highly recommend. Old Austin energy. Solid service. Zero BS.

Being relatively new to Austin, I tried three different auto shops for maintenance repairs. ATL's customer service exceeded my expectations, both in kindness and prices. Austin, the gentleman who took care of me, was super welcoming and helpful, finding ways to save me money and thoroughly explaining in detail what was wrong with my car. He went over what was more important and of higher priority. Compared to the other places, which quoted me ridiculous prices before even looking at my car, ATL's approach was far more satisfactory. In short, I've recommended this place to my friends and family and have had my cars serviced here several times. I do not work for them nor do I have any ties to them, so take this as a genuine review. Thank you, guys!

But I just didn't want to go through the time doing it myself. I was talking to Austin and letting him know about problems. We talked about cars in general and cars that get high mileage which mine is one of those, 11 years with 255,978 driving a total of 90 miles to work and back Monday through Friday He was really good , he was polite, besides the air filter you really didn't try to upsell me, which I appreciate. I sure like this Valvoline much better than the New Braunfels where I used to go but a little too far for me. Look them up on yelp and there's a couple of coupons.

I checked their hourly rates, they are in line with other garages I have used in the past. They seem to have a very smooth and efficient system set up, they handle a lot of cars with the large garage space they have, and they do a good job communicating and providing updates.

I'm talking club loud, where the walls are vibrating. Whatever to keep them motivated I guess. The smell of rubber was overwhelming for my nose that I was sneezing from how strong the smell was. Fortunately the wait was only 30 minutes so I wasn't in there long. The parking lot is shared with other businesses and there's options to park. I don't know what was inspected but my seat settings were changed and the headlight's settings were off.

5 stars Outstanding Service from Shane at the Brody Lane…read moreJiffy Lube - Truly Exceptional! I stopped in at the Jiffy Lube on Brodie Lane on Tuesday, April 7th, 2026 around 2pm for a routine oil change, and I have to say, the level of service I received was far beyond what I expected from a quick lube stop. From the moment I pulled up, the team was efficient, professional, and genuinely attentive. What really stood out was associate Shane. He went above and beyond to make the entire experience smooth and reassuring. Shane took the time to thoroughly explain every step of the Signature Service Oil Change, including what he was checking and why. He walked me through the multi-point inspection results with clear details--no upselling pressure, just honest, helpful information about my vehicle's condition. His knowledge, friendly demeanor, and attention to detail made me feel like my car was in truly capable hands. The service was completed quickly without feeling rushed, and everything was done with care and precision. The bay was clean, the staff was courteous, and I appreciated how Shane double-checked that all fluids were at the proper levels and that the cabin air filter and wiper blades were in good shape. He even offered practical driving tips for the upcoming weather, which showed real thoughtfulness. In a world where many auto service places feel transactional, Shane and the team at this Brody Lane location delivered outstanding, personalized service that made me feel valued as a customer. If you're in the area and need an oil change (or any quick maintenance), do yourself a favor and ask for Shane--you won't be disappointed. I'll definitely be returning to this location and recommending them to friends and family. Huge thanks to Shane for turning a simple oil change into a five-star experience!
