BEM - Body Electrics Module

add it

Short Hand is ancient secretary practice lol - little scribbles and symbols...so they can dictate quickly then translate it later

It's also offered at Kim Li's Massage Parlour for a little extra $$

OMG. O My God

TIFG
This is fucking gay

Awesome responses here guys. Thanks to every one who has added to the list

A special thanks to krisisdog for putting it in alphabetical order too

Technically, ECU and PCM are different.

PCM = Powertrain control module, which is a computer that controls not just the engine, but the gearbox as well - IE you could say that an auto I6 falcon has a PCM but an auto V8 has an ECM (Engine Control Module) and a TCM (Transmission Control Module).

Also, some manufacturers use ECU to mean "Electronic Control Module" (not necessarily just the Engine Control Module) such as BCM, PCM, Climate control etc.

Just useless info I thought I would share.

Another couple:

HVAC = Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning - pretty self explanatory.

Also, copying the whole list is a shit idea, because if two people post very close to one another they are bound to leave each others additions out by accident - modify your posts to only include the acronyms you have added yourself

SMB - Suck me bat
GADUPY - Get a dimmy up ya (also GADUPYS - Get a dimmy up ya slut)
YBAS - your balls are showing
GASC -giiis a smoke caarnt
