Hey all,

Well, I'm approaching the 3-weeks-in-the-shop mark as we wait for a differential part that is on back-order. My service writer said the parts manager doesn't know when it will come in, and Isuzu is not e-mailing back to tell them when it will be available, either, so I literally don't know if it's going to be days, weeks, or months before I get my VX back. I'm so frustrated that I'm looking at early-90's Porsche 928s and thinking one would be a nice, reliable ride in comparison!!

I vaguely recall someone posting that they needed some unavailable part, and Isuzu made a new one in a factory in Japan and shipped it to the US dealer to install.

Has anyone had this experience?
Has anyone had any luck shaking the Isuzu corporate tree to get some hard-to-find parts to fall out?
Does anyone have any other suggestions on how to get this moving along from my end?

Thanks!
