Abbreviations

[guest4871]

As someone who drives a steam Jazz (modern in it's day) but likes to keep up with current thinking, I wonder if someone would please produce a "sticky" on all the abbreviations one needs to know to drive a modern Honda Jazz today.

I’m OK with TPMS (I think).

What do LKAS, ACC, RDMS and all the others stand for?

Anything post 2015 would be good! 

Thank you

PS

CMBS - anyone? Google suggests Commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS).

For RDMS - Google suggests Registered Diagnostic Medical Sonographer (RDMS).

RDMS = Road Departure Mitigation System, often referred to as just RDM (Road Departure Mitigation)

DWS = Deflation Warning System - an Indirect version (Non-pressure sensors) of TPMS (Tyre Pressure Monitoring System)

WTFDTM

(translation, I truly wonder what on earth that could possibly mean) 

NIWTI (no idea what that is)

HACAT (haven't a clue about that)

TUTWIWNU (totally useless thing which I will never use)

CRHTAI (can't remember how to adjust it)

Acronyms and not Abbreviations.

If it's an abbreviation which is pronounceable as a word it's an acronym, e.g. NATO, SNAFU. 

If it's just a succession of consonants which isn't pronounceable as a word, it's an abbreviation, e.g. RDMS, RTFM.

That is incorrect.  An acronym is an abbreviation but more specifically it is formed from the first letters of a multi-word term.

Strictly speaking they are initialisms unless the letters form a readable word.

I find all these abbreviations a PITA. ( but which is that? )
