Hello, my name is Paul Villeneuve, owner and operator of Castor Automotive. I moved my equipment and well trained staff to a more local and convenient location for my clients, staff and myself. I owned Mr. Muffler on bank street for over 30 years and made a great reputation for my staff and myself. We don't take shortcuts, and every person who walks through my door is given the best treatment we can offer. From expertise knowledge to integrity pricing you can feel comfortable knowing your vehicle is in good hands. With a brand new shop, new equipment and a great attitude, we look forward to building up Castor Automotive into a better business then the high bar we set for ourselves as Mr. Muffler. So if you have car problems look no further (or drive no further) then Castor automotive, located at 551 Castor St., Russell. Quotes and smiles are free, just pay for the parts and labour.

Below we list some of the skills and repairs we commonly do.

The heart and soul of regular good car maintenance. We offer oil changes with different qualities of oil, and fast service to get you back on the open road again asap. You should be changing your oil every 3 months or 5000km, whichever comes first.

We can easily accommodate ALL your tire needs, from new tires, to changing summers to winter or vice versa, to balancing, to inspecting, and we even offer a tire storage program where we hold onto your alternate set of tires for when your ready to switch them back. helps to keep that garage a little bit cleaner.

If your engine has that "knock" or "tick" noise it could lead to something worse. We scan your vehicle and let you know exactly what the problem is, how much it would cost to repair, how serious it is, and how much longer you could risk it before it gets worse. Initial scans are fast and affordable and will fill you with confidence.

Does your car feel like its pulling to a side? Well then you may need an alignment to keep you moving in the right direction. It helps keep other parts from wearing improperly, and makes for a safer and smoother ride. We can identify your problem and correct it for you with ease.

Are your breaks making a "squeal" sound when you brake? car not braking at all? Whether its drum or disc brakes we got you covered with excellent staff who know their brakes. We offer different quality of pads can replace or cleanup rotors and calipers, and can get you stopping again in no time. The squirrels will thank you.

Lighting up the sky instead of the roads? yeah, thats probably your headlight needing some aiming. Whether is adjusting where the light aim or the bulb themselves we got you covered.

Anti-lock brakes are a safe and important part of driving, if your light has come on on the dash you should get them checked asap. And with car these day being almost entirely electronic, we can identify where the problem is and how serious it is.

A car that runs too hot for too long isn't good to nobody. It can literally take no time at all to overheat that engine reducing it to a 500 pound paperweight. Don't underestimate the seriousness of a temperature problem with your car. We will identify it and correct it with an explanation of how it happened and how to prevent it from happening again. We also can repair AC so you don't overheat.

Air blowing from your vents feel warm? You could just need a quick A/C refresh! We can have you back on your way feeling the cool breeze on the open road as opposed to feeling like the cabin is stifling. We can check the system, flush the system, recharge the system or repair it, depending on your needs.

If it wasn't mentioned here its because our web developer couldn't find an image designed to look like a car warning light... Because we do it all, bumper to bumper with friendly service and a budget that wont break the bank. We give you estimates upfront with no hidden surprises. We also like to take the time to keep you informed on the well being of your car.

Just kidding, if you need gas go to a gas station. this is about the ONLY thing we don't do.
