Hey I want to thank this thread. I just got welcomed and was asked all these question that were in code. Thanks to here I was able to decipher the code.

 

Thank you bigtoepfer and many others for the FF lingo. You guys could have been code talkers during WW1. Navajo's and their language saved our country big time and when all was done were sent back to the res with nothing except their pride. thanks Code talkers.

 

Good list -- very helpful. Here are some additional, older web forum abbreviations that are still in use:

AFAIK = As Far As I Know
OTOH = On The Other Hand
HSAT = Having Said All That,
BTW = By The Way,
ttt = To The Top (same meaning as "Bump")
BRB = Be Right Back (only useful in chats)
AFK = Away From Keyboard (same meaning as BRB)
IMESHO = In My Ever So Humble Opinion (for occasions where IMHO just isn't pretentious enough)
ROFLMAOWTIME = Rolling On the Floor Laughing My Ass Off With Tears In My Eyes

Also, just to be grammatically technical for a bit, abbreviations such as these must be pronounceable as a word in order to be an acronym. For example, LOL, IIRC and FTW are initialisms, not acronyms. Examples of proper acronyms include NASA, FUBAR, SCUBA, RAM, and RAID. In practice, though, nobody really cares except other grammar/spelling geeks. ;-)

 

wow i gotta learn these acro fast! lol

 

Couple of acronyms I can't figure out...

VSA

NHBP

Newbie would appreciate definitions...

Thnx

 

NHBP - night hawk black pearl
this should have been in the begining of the thread

VSA - Vehicle Stability Assist

 

Yeah, VSA and ICE

 

what a long list, good work tho

 

Hi there
I'm new to this forum, & I just wanted to say this post has helped me understand car talk a wee bit more.
And I wanted to add that bump stands for Bring Up My Post But you guys basically got what it means haha.

 

Kthnks for thread this helps n it makes me understand more now since its was confusin in the first place...

 

Not really Fit lingo but widely used (phone book/Contact lists...)
ICE - In Case of Emergency

 

So, in 2008, someone pointed out that the new chassis GXX codes needed to be added here. I have a 2013 Sport AT without Nav, and I gather that's a GE, but is there a specific number?

 

ge8--------

 

Can someone please tell me what GK stands for? Thanks.

 

I came looking for what I. C. E. stands for. There is a "Fit I. C. E." forum as well as sub-forums but now I see it in the subtitle: In Car Electronics.

 

Thank you for this thread.

 

GD (1st gen.)
GE (2nd gen.)
GK (3rd gen.)

 

Thank you for this. It really helps!

 

I like Commute Racer, not that I would do anything foolish in rush hour traffic, just trying to keep up with the Audi's and Boomer' s.

 

Nice! This is awesome. I've had to go frolicking through the internet to figure out some of this lol.
