ok... ive been seeing a lot of different **** on here i have no idea what it means... like replacing a DV... wtf is a dv... engine code thread.. dude was talking about AHA and DBW... idk what that **** is either lol

basically my idea, if it hasnt been done already... post what ever abbreviations there are for the audi and define them... if this thing actually takes off, it would be nice to see it stickied... for new audi owners (myself included) al this fancy lingo could get kinda intimidating lol

thanks gain.. hopefully someone does this so im not lost anymore lol

 

I know how you feel man, when I first joined up, I had to ask for definitions left right and center. I think there is already something in one of the stickies, might be in the "welcome new members" area from the main page of the site, but I'm not sure so I'll post up a couple here.

The engine code ones are Audi specific, they arent abbreviations to anything so don't worry about those.

As for the rest:
DV= Diverter valve (1.8t specific)
FMIC= Front Mount Intercooler (1.8t specific)
BOV= Blow off valve (specific to turbo'd cars, but not ours as ours are close-looped)
BMC= Manual Boost controller (1.8t)
TB= Throttle Body
TBA= Throttle Body Alignment
CAI= Cold Air Intake
VC= Valve cover

And that's all I can pull off the top of my head for now. I'm sure someone else can contribute or link the thread that has these already listed if it exists.

 

Knew I had seen it before. It is in the "welcome new members" area.
