Everyone that works here is so friendly. Normally when I go to a mechanic/oil center everyone is so cold or I feel like I'm bothering them. You can tell that there is great top down leadership here because management really knows how to run a cohesive team. Service is fast and efficient and prices are good. Tip: I work 5 mins away and usually call them ahead of time to ask if there is a current wait. If you plan it correctly you can be in and out very quickly. read more

Once more a big THANK YOU to everyone at The Lube Center. A quick diagnosis of a cracked radiator and fixed by the end of the day with a new radiator. Amazing. Didn't lose any work or leisure time. All at a price I could afford. These guys are great! Thanks again! read more

The ONLY place that I have taken my cars to for the past 10 years!! From engine checks to oil changes to help with my tires and everything in between! I appreciate Ron, Edik and Brent so much for their outstanding service and passion for their work! I highly HIGHLY recommend Lube Center to anyone who has any questions with their cars! They are very honest and they don't try to scam you like every other shop in LA does. They actually care about the customer and don't see us as dollar signs. Amazing, amazing AMAZING! See you guys soon for my next oil change ! read more

It's one of the few actually honest car repair shops in town. They give great advice and don't overcharge. Their work is fast and reliable.

Great service! Ron and his team took me right in for an oil change - fast and friendly. Had a donut and made a call in the superman phone booth! read more

Lube Center - Superman Phone booth! - Oil Change Stations Near Me - Burbank, California

The staff here is accommodating and respectful. I appreciate that they have a sitting area inside of their facility. I have never had to wait more than 15 minutes to get my oil change, it only cost me about $50 to do so. I have only taken my cars here and when people ask I recommend this establishment. My dad put me on to this place and I'm pleased with their hospitality and service. A++ read more

Needed oil change and I wanted to support small business. Went in Saturday morning, and they finished within 20 mins. They were professional and didn't upsale services. I was very pleased and happy with result. Found my new oil change place. read more

There are a ton of places that you could possibly get your oil changed, but why not go to a place where the offer you coffee, wifi and super speedy (and nice) service!! I only wish that I had found them sooner!! Thank you, A loyal customer! read more

Lube Center - Waiting for my oil change!! - Oil Change Stations Near Me - Burbank, California

Ron and his crew are great. They've been treating my Subaru right for two years now. Their work is professional, competent, and fast. He has also referred me to other good local businesses, including the tire shop down the road. It's good to make an appointment, with them, just in case, although sometimes I get away with just stopping by. read more

I have been coming here for over 20 years! They do everything; they've done my brakes, all lube and oil changes, A/C, etc. I even have my family coming here. Very honest and they really work with you. I wouldn't go anywhere else!!! read more

This is where I have been taking my car for oil changes for the last few years and it is no wonder this place has 5 stars. I went there upon recommendation from a friend and would highly recommend this place to anyone. They are honest, nice, and fast. I felt relieved to find an oil change/ repairs place that I know I could trust. Oil changes are $39.95 and they never try to upsell. But they also do keep a good eye on the car so when I desperately needed a new A/C filter, they caught that. I have always found their prices reasonable and worth it knowing I am getting good, reliable service. Thanks Ron & everyone else at The Lube Center! I wish I remembered everyone's names - they are all great! read more

I don't know why I haven't written a review of this place before now. But, here it is. I love them! They are honest, honest, honest! I've taken my cars to them for a variety of issues, oil changes to engine work. They have reasonable prices (I check around) and GREAT service. My car is there now and I HATE getting work done on my car. I get so nervous. But, they calm my nerves by being honest and upfront. read more

Okay ratings went down pretty quick. Originally dropped off car for full check , tune up, 60k mile service including replacement of brakes and all fluids and let them know I was well over due for an oil change. Picked up car had great experience. However, I drove back home and noticed that I still had my old oil change sticker on. I look at the paper work and there's no mention of an oil change performed. I feel weird because oil change seems like it would be one of the first and most basic things to check during a full service (also, there was oil leaking out where my oil filter is when I dropped it off ). To have that oil just wiped away but not changed made me feel like I potentially didn't get the full service I was hoping for. Now I question if some other things were missed in the check. Had I not looked, I could have damaged my car severely since I'm taking it on a cross country road trip. I had to call out from work the next day and drive from SCV to back to Burbank to have them check if they did or did not perform the oil change (time and $$ on a customers end who just spent a lot of money at their location for services). I didn't feel safe driving my car without an oil change right away bc it was overdue and the previously mentioned oil that was leaking from the oil filter. I get there and they check to find it was not performed. The guy working says "we will take care of it for you" ... probably the wrong verbiage to use. Should have been a "I'm sorry. We can change it for you for $X amount". But there was not a conversation about cost prior to completing the service. So when I'm leaving I was left with the whole bill and though I did negotiate it down $10 it just felt like poor business. Not saying the work they do was bad but it's just not the way i felt business should be handled. I would have taken my car to another location for a cheaper oil change had I known. money is tight and i had already budgeted the pervious amount thinking it included all that i brought the car in needing. Lost trust and now lost my recommendation to refer friends here. Still driving the car around just hoping they serviced the car in the way it needed. a weird feeling when you feel like you finally found a good mechanic you can trust and then to experience this. read more

Very friendly and honest with a me. As a woman with a baby I expect a fight but they were very good with me. However I'm really unhappy with how they treated my car. I have a 2017 VW. The oil change interval is 10,000 miles. However, they keep resetting my oil change sensor to 3,000 miles. So the oil light goes on and I go to VW thinking there's a problem and they keep informing me the computer is being reset. So sneaky! Maybe it was an honest mistake but that's a pretty big honest mistake to be happening more than once. Can't even imagine how many other people are tricked into thinking they need an oil change! read more

Their hand sanitizer smell extremely good and silky on your hands. MUST TRY. Speedy fast lightening service! Staff is friendly and speak easy. Manager Brent himself will brew coffee for you while your car is being serviced. The waiting room looks like a diner. LOL A retro pay phone booth with bunch of stuff to look at while you are waiting. Anyway, much better than the other service station down the road who asks me bunch of questions i can't answer and have me saying "lemme call my bf and ask." Definitely come back for my brake & rotary service. read more

So I yelped oil change and this place came up. They seem to have a lot of good reviews, so I figure: what the heck lets go here. Best decision I've made all day. I've had my oil changed many times and have dealt with all types of people. This is by far the cleanest shop I went to with the most relaxing waiting area. Of course there was almost no waiting done as they finished everything in 15 min. I still had time to actually enjoy a lunch for the next 45 min... They also brought in my air filter and cabin filter to show me. It was in disgustingly bad shape so I told them to change that too. Price was very very fair. Dealer wanted an arm and a leg for those things before when I took it in. Anyways my accord couldn't be happier for the service and neither could I. From my initial walk in and greet and the guy immediately taking my car in to the excellent customer service inside. This is the only place I'm taking my car from now on. Guys if you're reading this, don't think twice; take your car in. read more

I came into town from Arizona and I needed a oil change, I saw the reviews so I decided to stop by! I'm not disappointed because it was fast service and very welcoming. They also checked my tire pressure and filled up my windshield washer fluid myself and my car our happy. Thank you guys. read more

I appreciate the honesty and transparency that was provided. The oil change was quick, I have no complaints.

Ron and his crew are outstanding. I was have my cars Lubed there. They are fast and efficient. Thank you for the great service.

Decided to support local business in Burbank. My car needed an oil change. Quick service and great staff. Great price. Cost me half than taking my car to the dealership's service dept. read more

I came here because I have been looking for an oil change place near me and this place had great reviews. I came on a Saturday afternoon so there was a wait but they still got me out of there pretty fast. The inside was nice and cool but it was dirty. There was an old, worn, cracked green leather couch and VERY outdated magazines. Cob webs and dirt on the windows and random stuff in a glass case (weird). But they did get my oil changed quickly and they front desk guy was helpful. It was pricey -$38.00. I usually I can get an oil change AND car wash for $35. Bottom line: If you are in a hurry go here. If not, then find a car wash place that can change your oil and you can get a free car wash too. read more

Never thought I'd get so stoked from an oil change, but Lube Center was easy, fast, staff were friendly, I feel confident in a job well done, no BS up selling and the place has vibe! I'll be bringing cars here from now on. Oh, they open at 7:30 so I was able to show up, get my car handled and get to work on time. read more

Excellent service and these guys know car repair! Honest and friendly. Convenient to get to and have a loyal customer base. Recommend them to all my friends read more

I just got off the phone with a specialist who quoted me $90 for an oil change for my Fiat Pop. Watch out, ladies! A lot of reviews say between $25-$40.... not sure if it's because I'm a woman or what but does not seem like an accurate quote. The dealership charges $35. Good luck with your business! read more

I've gone to so many places for an oil change in the Burbank area and I just never feel comfortable because the places are always so male-dominated and they push you to do extra work on your car. This place is not at all like that! :) The service was quick. The staff were very polite. The sitting area is comfy and there are beverages available. Overall it was a great experience and I felt completely comfortable. I'll definitely be back. read more

Great guys, great job. Really cools interior that's fun with 3 computers. Nice guys, quick oil change, experienced and knowledgeable. read more

I drive from far away to get my oil changed here, even passing a Jiffy Lube which is less than a quarter mile from my house. I come here for the price, it's consistent and what's advertised. No false $20 oil change like the other guys and then you leave paying $80. They guys here are honest, efficient and always friendly. Best of all I've come to trust them, that's something hard to find in the auto repair industry. read more

I've taken my Jeep to Brent at the Lube center for years. Impeccable service, fair prices, and friendly. I always am amazed at how quick the job gets done & how great my Jeep turns out. I love this place! I have been spoiled & can't take my Rubicon anywhere else!! Thanks Brent!! read more

Ron is a very personable and a respectful person. Definitely makes you feel comfortable and explains extensively on the issues on the vehicle as well as the parts you need. He will go out of his way to ensure that you got the best deal and will also let you know if you have any other problems with your vehicle. In addition, your car is in an open area which gives you an opportunity to watch the guys work or you can hang out in the waiting area that has coffee, tv, and computers to use. read more

Ron and his crew always take great care of me! I have been going there for over 25 years and have never had an issue. My truck has over 200,000 miles on it and is still going strong thanks to the maintenance performed my Ron, Brent, Randy, Gabriel and the rest of the crew. I just had my oil changed and they had me out of there quickly and cheaper than their competitors. And more importantly I know it was done rite! read more

I have been coming to the Lube Center for years now. Ron and Brent are both very knowledgeable and have been very helpful when I have any questions or concerns. Always fast and friendly service for a fair price. read more

It's so hard to find reliable, honest mechanical service these days. As a woman, it's twice as hard because so many mechanic types take advantage of our femaleness and use big technical words in order to sell us on service we don't even need, or they jack up the price of service figuring we don't know anything about cars. Fortunately, I have my hot, Irish neighbor to consult on mechanical matters. But when he's not around, I have Yelp nation. Due to the across the board stellar reviews for Lube Center, I took my car there this morning. What a stellar bunch of nice guys. I was offered coffee not once, but twice. Coffee isn't the only perk, though. They have a very comfy couch, free Wi-Fi, and a phone booth for free local calls. Their magazine selection ran the gamut from Muscle and Fitness to Cosmo. Unlike my past experiences with places like Jiffy Lube, where they always give me the hard sell and tell me I need this and that done, blah, blah, blah, the Lube Center guys just did the job, plain and simple. When they unclogged my wiper fluid mechanism they discovered a broken plastic part, which they replaced at no charge. They changed the oil, checked all the fluids, and put air in my tires. I asked them to replace my wiper blades, which they didn't have on hand, so they had someone deliver them to the shop within 15 minutes. I loved that the service guy even cleaned my dog nose smudged windows. So nice! As I settled the bill, I was told many times that my business was appreciated. I didn't cringe and have that queasy wave of nausea wash over me as I handed over my debit card, knowing my account would be drained of hard earned cash. Because of their reasonable pricing and their friendly, most excellent service, Lube Center has a client for life. I highly recommend these guys. read more

I'm a chick. We obviously get robbed and upsold to in this industry all the time. My BS detector is pretty refined now, so usually it "dings" and I just leave the establishment with my money still safely in hand. Not here. These are good, honest people, and I would trust any suggestion they have on my little Catmobile. They truly care about the customer, and will only recommend things if it's needed. Not only do I get my oil changed here now, but this is where I also get my car checked before long road trips. Even when I said "Hey, I'm going to Vegas. Anything broken?", they still didn't find anything wrong with my car... and I probably would have bought a whole new engine if they recommended it. Honest guys, folks. That's rare. :) read more

Found this place thanks to Jiffy Lube - after sitting in front of their bays for a sea turtle's lifespan waiting for one of their clueless grease-monkeys to acknowledge my existence I decided I'd had enough and headed back to work. Turns out luck was on my side, as I discovered the Lube Center less than a mile away. THE PLUSES: - Friendly, courteous staff. - 10 minutes oil change that actually took 10 minutes. - Free internet (not just WiFi - they have computer stations). - Coffee that doesn't taste like it came straight from the engine block of a Ford F-150. THE MINUSES: - They won't try to up-sell you on a bunch of repairs you don't need, so too bad if you're trying to pad business expenses for your next audit. - The employees are all fluent in English, so it's a poor place to practice your Spanish/Armenian/Russian. - You won't be stuck in an overcrowded lobby for two hours, so it's also not the best locale to solicit Amway or enlistment for your cult. My only other minor gripe would be the TV in the lobby stuck on Fox News. I may be imagining things but Fox News doesn't seem nearly as "fair and balanced" as their slogan would lead one to believe. Still these are just nits for the picking. The Lube Center and staff possess not only COMPETENCE but the ability to actually DELIVER on their promises as advertised -- qualities all too rare these days. Recommended? Like Trojans at a Haitian brothel. read more

Brought my mom's minivan a couple months ago for an oil change and recently bought my car( 07 camry) for an oil change here. Oil changes usually take the advertised time of 10 minutes but except a couple minutes extra. There was no wait when I went today but you might have to wait a bit if the shop is full. The lounge is comfortable with free internet access, a soda machine, free coffee/water. The prices are very reasonable and I get better quality and care here than other chain places that charge more for nothing. Also, there was another customer who asked about brake problems and the owner was very honest and didn't try to get the owner to change the brakes because there was no issue with them. They also clean your front window, vacuum your front seats, and check the car fluids at the same time, which is very convenient. Will only bring cars here for oil changes now. read more

After a few bad experiences at Jiffy Lube I decided to let Yelp determine my new oil change place. Lube Center was #1 with 5 star reviews across the board. I thought maybe a bunch of the employees' friends and family members wrote these awesome reviews. Welp, Yelp.... I was mistaken. First off, the man I ran into in the garage (not literally) was very friendly and thanked me for giving them my business. He told me to help myself to free coffee and internet inside while I waited. WHAT. Upon entering their lobby the man behind the counter was also friendly and welcoming. I sat there amongst free coffee, internet, and a badass Superman suit hanging in a telephone booth, quietly playing on my phone and waiting for some bad news. I am so used to the guys at Jiffy Lube pointing out all the shitty things wrong with my car that I expected to hear something. NOTHING. NOT ONE UPSELL OR MENTION OF ADDITIONAL SERVICES NEEDED. Just the bill. Whaaaaat a relief! I highly recommend this place for all your oil change needs! Hooray! read more

I've tried some of the other express lube places around. Remarkably, the chains are worse at fleecing their customers than the independent places. Whatever the case, Lube Center isn't much to look at, but it's perfectly safe and clean in the waiting area. They have computers for internet browsing while you wait for your (quick) oil change. Better yet, they can get your oil changed fast. I've waited for an hour or longer at some other places -- ridiculous. And finally, the best part: they don't try to sell you on things you don't need. They look up your oil type, do it, and send you on your way. The price for the oil change itself is about the same if not a tad cheaper here than at Jiffy/EZ Lube. The manager is also very nice and appreciative. All in all, a very good experience, and I'd highly recommend it to anyone. read more

These guys are the best! Everyone is so helpful and nice. As a women and not knowing a damn thing when it comes to mechanical problems with cars. I know I can trust them. I actually have been coming to this place for the past 2 years and I won't go anywhere else! read more

I've been going to Lube Center for a few years now and I am constantly impressed with the speed and professionalism here. The staff is kind and communicative - makes me actually want to keep up with my regular car maintenance schedule. I recommend Lube Center to everyone I know. read more
