My DA42NG is in the shop for some maintenance, and the shop was quoted a 4-6 week lead time for the following parts. Do people know how realistic that lead time is (either pessimistic or optimistic?)
- Turbocharger
- Cylinder Head
- Injectors

Re: Lead time for parts
I was quoted 6 weeks for an aux fuel transfer pump. That was about 6 weeks ago and hoping it will be in soon. Took about 6 weeks for a replacement trim switch to come in, and about the same time for a replacement GPS antenna. Seems like everything takes about 6 weeks

Re: Lead time for parts
Darn that's a long time! I was hoping 4-6 weeks was the pessimistic end for routine parts.. but I guess I should set my expectations for 6 weeks now. I'll report back on how long the parts take.
