Vic-XRT New Member 16 Member For: 21y 2m 23d Location: Melbourne Posted 04/03/04 10:00 PM Share Posted 04/03/04 10:00 PM Hi everyone, this forum is fantastic and has been providing me with a heap of information to help me with my T. But there is one problem - I am not familiar with a lot of the jargon and abbreviations which are used in the posts and I find this very frustrating especially when the key word is something likeSSS N/A PCM ECU SWAMBOIt would be a temendous help to me, and I suspect to many others who read these forums, to have a glossary of terms or a list of explanations somewhere on the site which could easily be referred to.Is there anyone else out there who also has this problem?
