I have seen tons and tons off abbreviations here on H-T and while im not no genious like most of yall i dont know all, i know "guide to basic accord lists some" IE

OBDI-on board diagnostics 1
OBDII- on board diagnostics 2 (main difference is 2 o2 sensors)
AT-automatic transmission
MT-manual transmission
Gen-generation
IMO-in my opinion
CEL- Check Engine Light
Whip- your ride

I have learned a little bit as i have been here, but when i was a newbie i certinaly didnt know any not even the common I/H/E until just recently.. I have even read posts where someone will abbv. and someoen will ask "waht does that mean" so i was thinking lets make a post about it and stick it or, just copy all abbv. in the accord guide (i even think the gu y that posted those abbv up above said "for now") so i was hoping there would be more, anyways if u have any abbv post them and tell us what they mean.. ill start with one

IAT Sensor.. Intake Air Temp. Sensor
PnP.. I belive it means Port and Polish

i have seen alot of abbv. so start postin!
