Hi guys,

we are currently working on a vocabulary guide for new members that would make it easier to understand some of the lingo of car talk and this site. i have about 60 items on the list right now but i am sure that i missed quite a few things. please post things that you feel people should know as far as acronyms and maybe things that you saw on the site and don't know what they mean. this can be either technical or general. for example: lol, map, bov, mmna, ymmv, psi, acd etc...

thanks for the help,

Blonde

 

Hmm, about "Search" ? I assumed many of them doesn't know.

 

TB-throtle body
TBE-Turbo back exhaust

 

blonde if you post your list it might cut down on repetitive posts, then again you probably have a good reason for just putting examples.
jdm, dp, tb, gsr, tbe
