Need a new transmission wire!

Hello all, Fiat/Lancia/Alfa Romeo aus Norwegen here!

I've got a MK1 1987 Lancia Thema 2.8 with a 3-speed automatic transmission, and I need to get a new wire from the "lever" (or whatever it's called) from inside the car to the transmission itself... does anyone have/know of one? And also, could anyone please tell me where I could get an oil filter for the said gearbox?

Thanks in advance! Really starting to miss driving this future classic!

The filter is very difficult to obtain. You can clean it.

The cable is very thick, I don't think it can be broken. Perhaps it needs a bit oil?

Hi, and thanks for the answer! I did manage to break it, please do not ask how... show's how much I know to fix cars :/

Do you really think that a SAAB wire would fit? As far as I know, the mechanical is completely different between the Croma/Thema and the 9000?

Saab has different engines and gearboxes, it won't fit.Try www.martinwillems.nl he can deliver most parts!

Hi! Looks great, but now I just came across a "parts car" here in my own country, but if he doesn't have the wire I will contact those mentioned in your link! Thanks a lot!
