Lightbulb Terms/abbreviations

I suppose this is in the manuals somewhere. (Yes, I'm going to buy them) but is there a list of acronyms or abbreviations. I'm starting my own, but in the mean time, ... latest addition is "CTS" = coolant temp sensor. Send me your entries and I'll start a glossary.

Hi Steve,

Good Idea. I am very interested in what you come up with. Keep us in the loop.

Here is a list that I think I copied from Greg Nichol's site.

Acronyms
Here's some commonly used abbreviations used in e-mail. Some are PorscheList-specific:

BTDT - Been There, Done That
BTW - By The Way
DIY - Do It Yourself
FWIW - For What It's Worth
HTH - Hope This Helps
IMHO - In My Humble Opinion
LOL - Laughing Out Loud
MY - Model Year
OB - Old Bugger, an older 928, model yeat 1979/1980
OBC - Old Bugger's Club, see above
OTOH - On The Other Hand
PO - Previous Owner
PSD - Positiv Sperr Differential. A microcomputer controlled locking differential found on later 928's
RMB - Rear Muffler Bypass
ROFL - Rolling On the Floor Laughing
TIA - Thanks In Advance
YMMV - Your Mileage May Vary (your situation might be somewhat different)
