    Valvoline Instant Oil Change

    Valvoline Instant Oil Change

    (4 reviews)

    Fast service and no hassle. Friendly employees and a coupon were a bonus for sure. 2nd time here.read more

    I've been a customer of the Jiffy Lube in Westminster for years, but they've gone so far downhill…read moreover the past 2 years or so that after my last experience I vowed I was done with them. I was happy to see this Valvoline open up just down the street from them and figured I'd give them a try. We pulled up and literally all bays were open, so no wait whatsoever - sweet! You stay in the car while they change your oil, and they ask you the standard questions about whether your wipers are working well, whether you want them to replace your cabin or engine air filters, etc., while checking your lights and tire pressure as well. In the end the cost for just an oil change (oil and oil filter) was just over $100 - ouch! I was hoping they would be a bit cheaper than Jiffy Lube, at least initially, but to me this is a price that will have me just changing my own oil next time it's due; 5q of 0W-16 oil is about $25 and the oil filter is about $10, so for $35-$40 dollars it's a no-brainer. I also noticed that the 'next oil change' sticker was set to 3,000 miles beyond my current odometer reading, which is 100% incorrect. The proper recommended spacing for oil changes with my 2023 Toyota Corolla is 10,000 miles, so either they can't be bothered to check and see what the correct, manufacturer recommendation is for oil changes on various vehicles or they're just intentionally misleading people. Not a good feeling. Overall they're quick and pleasant, so if you don't mind paying a ton of overhead for a task you can pretty easily do yourself, if nothing else they're a step WAY above the Jiffy Lube.

    Wow to the team, Manager and technicians! I have mechanics in my family and using someone new and…read morenot related is scary! I had a great experience getting tires and learned things about my vehicle I did not know. I will be returning for brakes and a battery. Thank you Westminster team for being so cool and knowledgeable.

    I have been to this location in the past and had no issues. The staff were friendly, got the work…read moredone (correctly), and I always kept this place in mind when I needed work done to my vehicle. Recently (in the last 6 months) I went to purchase tires. The associate who was manning the desk seemed a bit off (hungover, not at all there - not sure what it was, but I didn't think anything of it at the time). He found a set of tires for my car after fumbling around with different systems that were not working for him (he was very outspoken about the issues he was having, which I found unprofessional). When he finally found a set, I asked him if the purchase came with an alignment. He said it did not, but he would 'throw it in with the same price' if I purchased the tires. I said definitely, and thank you. Once I received a call that the car was ready, I went up there and picked the car up. Upon driving the car home, I noticed a vibration in the front and the steering was pulling to the left harder than it was when I brought the vehicle in for the new tires. I immediately took the vehicle back to the location and mentioned this to the staff. The guy who sold me the tires was there, along with another employee who was making comments to the guy who helped me that they didn't do aligments for free. I got the impression he was part of management or the owner. I mentioned to the guy who sold me the tires that he told me he would include the alignment in with the price, and he tried to deny that he said anything like that. They took my keys again and said they would 'fix' the alignment as a courtesy. I asked the guy who sold me the tires for confirmation that he balanced the tires, and he confirmed he did. The employee who I assume was the manager started asking me quite a few questions about alignment that were beyond my understanding, and he basically started trying to explain to me that the bad alignment had nothing to do with any work they did to the car, and then started saying it was probably the road I was driving on that was making the car pull harder to the left than it had been before the new tires were put on the car. I started to realize this was not a constructive, nor a rational conversation, so I didn't continue to debate the issue. I did, however, ask the 'manager' if I took the car to another shop and they were able to determine that the alignment was either nerver done or made worse, if they would reimburse me for a portion of the cost of the tire installation. He of course said they didn't do that and they don't do test drives on freeways, so that may be why the technician who supposedly did test drive the car after the work was dont didn't notice any alignment issue. I am really disappointed, as the staff I have been assisted by in the past were nothing like these two employees. One seemed incompetent and I wonder if he even remembered saying he'd throw in an alignment, or if he was just saying he never said that because his manager was present. The manager was flat out rude and extremely defensive. Judging from other reviews, it doesn't sound like this is a common incident (I am seeing lots of positive reviews for this shop), and I hope nobody else has this or a similar experience, but I will not bring my car to this shop anymore. VERY substandard work, lack of clear communication, and very unprofessional.
