German term or phrase: Ersatzteileabonnement
Ich habe einen Korrekturlesenauftrag hins. eines Vertrages erhalten, der die Überschrift "Ersatzteileabonnement" hat.

Der Übersetzer hat diesen Begriff mit "Replacement Parts Subscription" übersetzt. Ich habe da aber so meine Zweifel, vor allem deshalb, weil Google keinen einzigen Eintrag zu dieser Übersetzung enthält.

Meine Überlegungen gehen eher in Richtung "Contract for the (regular) supply of replacement parts" o.ä.

Was meint ihr dazu?

Danke!

Explanation:
I'd say you have the right idea; I've certainly never, ever, heard of a "replacement parts subscription" - that just sound silly to me...
