This was my first time through one of these drive thru services (we don't have these in Australia- we should- there's an idea for Valvoline!!!!). The staff were very friendly and efficient. They clearly outlined the procedure and completed all tasks within the stated 15min. Considering the top-quality oil, new filter and all other checks, I believe it was very good value and would definitely come back again. Thankyou.

Quick, welcoming, and limited salesmanship. I felt no pressure to get any add ons. Awesome experience.

The service team was exceptional, especially Anthony. He was very attentive and gave me good insight on the maintenance issues my vehicle had. I was able to make a good decision on getting additional services to my truck aside from the original reason I came in for.

I liked the first guy who helped me, then another guy with long hair “took over”. He said he was from another valvoline, seemed like a “high producer “ from another shop. Just felt like he was going to sell me something. It was a weird experience. Maybe he was “showing others how it’s done”. That’s what it seemed like. Felt like I was at a used car dealership. Tacky and salesy. Nothing to keep me away. I like this shop in OB and staf is always friendly and professional.

I was told that my battery was only working at fifty percent , but I could buy a new one for $250.00.I refused and had my battery checked later that day and there was nothing wrong with it. Totally dishonest employee.

Mainly the price and added line item fees for extra oil and coolant. $80 is way too much for a basic oil change for an old basic Chevy truck

I've twice now had to go back because my vehicles were not reassembled correctly. First time, Clairemont store my pickup skid plate was dragging on the pavement as I drove out. This visit I switched locations hoping to avoid problems and had a similar problem with my wife's Jetta. Skid plate was not reattached properly. Oil leaked all over my driveway when I got home. Tech explained that his coworker had spilled oil when removing the oil filter and not cleaned up the skid plate thus resulting in the oil on driveway.

Organized and quality service at a fair price. The tranny service it way over priced though or I would have had them do that also.

The staff here is always friendly and welcoming. They take care of the services I need quickly while explaining each step to me. I like that they explain recommendations without pressuring an upsell.

The staff operated like a “well-oiled” machine. It was clear they were enjoying their work and that translated into excellent, focused customer service, something I greatly appreciated.
