Equipment suffixes do not specifically address approach capabilities as far as I know. /G includes terminal and it's up to the individual pilot to know the capability of his equipment (i.e. is it approach certified?). Sounds like /K would work for FMS with DME/DME updating, but you say "We can NOT file or fly RNAV arrivals or departures in the interim." Maybe/W is your only option in this situation.
