$7.99 seems a great deal but the washing apparatus never gets close enough to actually touch and clean my 4 door sedan. Maybe it's meant for washing the trucks/ SUVs, but I'm not coming back with my Camry. It would definitely explain the short line (as compared to the Torrance location) The only thing it did was just smear the bugs on my windshield instead of cleaning it off, so I had to go to another car wash immediately afterwards to get a true clean. TLDR: not a great option for smaller sedans, YMMV if you have larger trucks/SUVs read more

First, you pick up the apparel, and you stick it in the barrel, scrub, scrub Then you take it to the mangle, and you turn the giant handle, scrub, scrub... 5/5 Service Need gas, pump it up and then get your wash on right before you head out. Service was quick. Paid at the gas pump for the wash and showed the attendant my receipt. 3/5 Wash Quick even with a line. Spent less time getting a wash then getting to a gas pump. It may not be the best wash but when you have a dirty car anything is better than the eye sore of dirt. 3/5 Likelihood to Return I am unsure on returning. Thought everything looked okay until I get home and realized my hood wasn't even scrubbed. Psalm 33:22, God bless and Stay Prayed Up read more

You can never possibly go wrong with a carwash at costco after filling up on gasoline. I normally pay $20.00 going g through any other carwash but you just cannot beat $7.99 carwash. It's easy just drive in and give them your reciept showing proof of purchase. That or you use your debit card to pay at the kiosk. Costco offers free self-service vacuums with the purchase of any wash at select locations. read more

A Costco Car Wash in Norwalk? Had to try for $7.99. Overall, it made the exterior of the car clean but there is no vacuum onsite and no special different colored soap. read more

Tried the Costco drive-thru car wash because it was cheap and convenient. It's very basic and does the bare minimum. While the price is hard to beat, my car didn't come out very clean. Good for a quick rinse if you're already there, but don't expect a thorough wash. read more

Costco Car Wash - Car Wash Near Me

7.99 sounds like a deal at first but it's not worth it. They don't take your back windshield wiper like other tunnel car washes. You don't have a space to dry the excess water from your car and there is no option to vacuum. I rather buy a membership at the coin-operated car wash. It's just not the same Costco quality I assume it was going to be. read more

Service still the best out of three so cal locations I e tried, but the drier hasn't been working as well as the first few times I've been here. Leaves the windshield and other parts of my truck very wet. I realize I could set off myself, but I just need it clean enough to get back on the road and fine with a few drops, but last two trips were annoying enough to notice. Still great for $7.99, but hope it's just a calibration issue and can get back to "good enough" and "dry enough" wash and dries so I can just be in and out like before. read more

- Opening month the wash and dry were great, I was pleasantly surprised - After that did they adjust it to save electricity or water? Now the air driers don't dry the car well like it did Opening month. -Let's call and complain. This is Costco after all: Ask for Manager: 5629290826 read more

The line moves quickly. The car exterior gets cleaned and waxed, and the tires get shined. There are no vacuums, so bring your own stuff if you want to do any interior cleaning. It is not the best car wash, but you get what you pay for - a basic car wash for $7.99. It is the only option offered, which keeps it simple. If you want additional bells and whistles, find another place and spend more money. read more

I've been coming to this car wash since it opened. It washes better than other local car washes. I've never had an issue with my tires and rims not being washed. Although I've had 2 broken antennas going through. The 1st was the original antenna and my car is 12 yrs old SUV. I replaced the antenna from Amazon, that eventually snapped off a few minths later goingthroughthe car wash. Has anyone had any issues or I'm just having bad luck with thr antennas. My antenna sticks out unlike the shark fin antenna. read more

So this is the 2nd time my car comes wet. Visible drops (a lot of them!) throughout the car from hood, fenders all the way to the trunk!! I've also notice the time was cut way shorter for car wash. I honestly feel they've cut corners. Main takeaway WAS, and USED TO BE, convenience and value. BUT, all that is worthless if the job is crappy! THUMBS DOWN!!! Update: still trash. Breaks down often and very inconsistent car washes ! read more

The car wash left a lot of debris on my SUV. The windows were left spotty and the rear tailgate was pretty much skipped over. Overall my SUV came out dull and dingy looking. Highly disappointed, as I was happy to find out Costco had its own car wash and nearby me as well. read more

This is the second time within 2 days that the tire cleaner brushes not working . I told the guy collecting the receipts and he said that my tires weren't good aligned and the sensors don't catch them . On 2 different cars ? Imma take my third car tomorrow to see if he's right and check read more

As far as drive-through car washes go I think this one is great. I like that there are two pay terminals to help keep the line going, on my visit in May 2022 they even had employees out there who were taping down your back wiper if needed. read more

It's a good wash for the price point. Was able to get a car wash quickly and without any wait. I still find it fun to ride thru the car wash and watch all the automation at work. It's like a mini amusement park ride. If you have dry bird poop or marks on your car, this wash may not clean it off, and you still have to use a wipe and some manual power to clean it off. The tire and wheel cleaner that comes included with the wash was a disappointment. My tires and rims were just as dirty after going thru the wash, and I ended up having to manually wipe them. read more

You get what u pay for: just water.... Car isn't clean after wash. It didn't wash out dirt and just add water and soap residue read more

I've used the Costco Carwash a few times, and I've noticed a clear difference depending on the time of day. During the night, the wash is noticeably faster compared to the morning. Tonight's wash was rushed, my car came out still wet, with soap residue all over, and the blowers didn't dry my car properly. It seems like they might be adjusting the timing during rush hour to get more cars through quickly, which affects the overall quality. If you're looking for a thorough wash, it's probably best to go during non-peak hours when they aren't rushing to keep up with demand. read more

Quick and reasonably priced. They have 5 rows of dryers that sufficiently dry your vehicle. Also includes tire shine. Sometimes the rinse doesn't completely get the tires and you're left with white stuff on the tires. 4 starts because there are no vacuums. Bring a towel to get the small areas that didn't get fully dry. For the price, it's a great value and does a very good wash. read more

What a great experience! I had no idea that this Costco location had a car wash. I was able to pre-purchase the car wash while pumping gas, but there were also kiosks to purchase a car wash right as you enter the line. There was a line, but it moved very quickly. We were in and out in no time and at the cost of $7.99 for a very good wash, we will definitely be back! read more

Pretty cool that a Costco car wash is open in this area. Prior to this, the Costco Gas in Norwalk was a HOT mess in regards to their line, always being unorganized or completely running off into the street, causing mayhem. Seems like with the addition of this car wash, they've completely reorganized the line and entries for both and it's working very well. There is a separate entrance if you're doing car wash only and separate signs towards the car wash for those who pre-paid when getting gas. There are 2 lines to enter/pay for the car wash and it states "pre-paid goes directly to entrance". With that being said, I hope they think of opening up a separate line for pre-paid customers. That would help. Attendants look at your receipt, verify, tape your rear wiper (if applicable), and push in your side mirrors. That made me nervous because I thought "does this mean I have to get out to push my mirrors back out??? That sucks". But no. When going through the dry blowers, they're strong enough that they just pop back out. It was quite nice. Like any other drive-thru car wash, it doesn't COMPLETELY clean your car, but it will do enough to notice the difference. There might be some residual spots, but for $7.99, you can't complain. read more

Cleans pretty good for a drive thru, even cleaned the rims and windows. Give it a try!

Used the car wash at night , and it felt super rushed thru the wash. I'm not expecting my car to stop , but it shouldn't get rushed out. Not sure it it's slower in the morning. read more

New facility is always nice. However, the attendant doesn't exactly guide you in too good. I bumped the rail pretty good going in. No vacuums. read more

It's great to see a Costco Car Wash at this location. This is an exterior wash only, but we'll worth the price. It does a very good job.

Fast, friendly, convenient, and very affordable. Lines are always long but it goes fairly quickly.

Excellent, recommend!!! Very clean environment and fast . I liked the price and the organization system they have for car wash and gas pumps. read more

I was surprised to see a Costco drive thru car wash so I tried it. They only have basic wash for 7.99 and no vacuums. My car was very dirty and it came out looking very very clean. Some of the reviews say that their car was damaged but after inspecting my car, everything looked fine. I messed up because I did not have my physical membership card (only the card on my app) with me in order to purchase a car wash while in line but the worker right in front of the car wash entrance ran to the kiosk to buy me a wash before I entered. I will not forget my physical card next time but I believe that you can also pre purchase a wash, I'm just not sure how. I think this car wash did a better job then the drive thru car wash near my home. read more

Not worth the risk that can result in a damaged vehicle. Not sure if it's a sensor problem or the materials they use. Pay the extra money for a reliable wash up the street read more

Totally unnecessary automated car wash. The only thing it's good for is creating a traffic jam on Imperial every day.

Just got car wash first time at Costco in Norwalk on Hoxie for $7.99. It was really quick after getting gas for car. I will come again because it is convenient and pay at gas pump. Because it is Costco, car wash was opened even before 7 am opening time. read more

I've never seen a costco car wash before and was curious as it was only 7.99 compared to other drive thru car washes. CURIOSITY PUT A CHIP IN MY PAINT! Never had this problem going through other car washes just spend a couple more bucks and save yourself the stress! read more

The best drive-thru car wash I've been to, by far! The wax in their shampoo has the car coming out shinier than any of the other ones I've been to. Plus, it includes tire scrubbing (although the tire shine is inconsistent) and undercarriage cleaning. I can't speak on the sensors resulting in paint scratches, as I didn't experience any. The scrubbers do come in closer contact and actually scrub the car (and roof) unlike other drive-thru washes though - which I appreciate. Best times to visit are in the mornings, as the lines get rather long in the afternoons. read more

Great car wash for the all outside service wash of wax tire shine and ceramic! There are no vacuums but there is designated parking for drying and throwing out trash. Like the gas station you need your physical membership card to pay for the service. Attendants are willing to help but short handed definitely need to be patient. But over all good car wash. read more

Disappointed in the quality of the wash. It is a very basic wash and they used less soap, i came out and my car was not properly cleaned. And I am not new to drive thru car wash, so I can definitely compare to others. Yes it was only $7.99 but as a costco brand im disappointed. read more

I love Costco and I gave this carwash a few tries. The last time was especially terrible. Car came out full of water spots and did not look any better than before the wash. While it is a convenient location, the wash is not worth it. read more

Was excited when I saw Costco, Norwalk was building a carwash on the same lot as their gas station. Anticipated the convenience of filling up plus driving off with a newly washed, sparkling car! Unfortunately that was not the case. This carwash is really bad. And I'm used to using a gas station drive thru at my local Chevron that does a good good. The BEWARE OF YOUR PAINT JOB!! My car is Gunsmoke gray. The entire driver's side of my car is now gouged with too many to count, long, deep scratches. Clay rub won't get them out. PLUS the soap they use doesn't get completely rinsed off my car, leaving multiple soap spots all over. In two places the soap stuck together in piles and I had to gently scrape it off the car. So, now ya'll have been warned. read more
