CA stands for "Client Advisor" aka your dealer

OEM = Original Equipment Manufacturer.

Isn't there a thread that shows all the acronyms?

CA is either the state, comfort access, or client advisor.

If you don't know what OEM means, just shoot yourself. That should be a question when you're attempting to register on any automotive forum. LoL.

Are there still people out there that don't know how to read a manual. Or do a search. Or even use google.

I thought "FTW" meant "For the win"? Taken from the sports jargon I think.

Slightly off topic but is there any way to automatically delete any post that uses the "LOL" term? I really don't think there's anything I hate more than that term - especially when people use it as every lol friggin' lol word lol.

By the way, that means get the fuck out. Just thought I'd let everyone know before more questions popped up. You're all welcome.
