bathroom mixer tap diverter

[notaplumber1]

Please can someone tell me where i can get hold of a diverter for a bath/shower tap. Tried to find but thread is very narrow. Most threads are wider. Photo of tap and diverter is available on my page.

If i cannot change diverter i need to knock down attached wall/tiles to get to back of bath tub.

Thanks for help.

You can't buy one but you can repair it.
Strip it down. Clean and grease all moving parts and fit new O ring seals.

Descaled and greased. moves easily now but diverting still does not work. I have put a picture up of the diverter. Can anybody tell me if i am missing an o ring on the bottom part ?

Thanks

Or r there any other reasons why the diverter would not work?
