There's a litlle bit of a translation issue here I think. Lol

If I understand correctly you need parts for your transmission? Is it auto or manual? Because if something needs replaced you might as well do a full rebuild. Do you know what's broken in of or is it just not working?

As for where to buy check eBay or online, depending if you have to pay some sort of import tax it may be cheaper or more exspemaive I don't know.
