Björn Vrooman Oct 20, 2019:
Jon I don't know what my question has to do with passive aggression.

You could have just answered it because your post is pretty much the same as Steffen's much earlier one, including the bit about "one (Google) hit."

I was curious, since some people used to say that when they access KudoZ on their phones, some things don't show up or show up elsewhere, e.g., the discussion box is not above but below the answers posted, which makes for some confusing comments (like "see below," though it's "see above" on a PC).
Steffen Walter Oct 20, 2019:
See below ... ... under "Reference comments" :-)
Jon Reynolds Oct 20, 2019:
No need for passive agression Björn, I can't see anything from Steffen
Björn Vrooman Oct 20, 2019:
@Jon Why are you quoting what Steffen posted two days ago?
Jon Reynolds Oct 20, 2019:
Agree with Orion. Most likely an internal departmental designation. There is one Google hit for "Abteilugn EGNA" - "Die Abteilung EGNA ist verantwortlich für die Gesamtfahrzeugakustik aller Volkswagen PKW der Klassen Small und Compact.... vor 22 Stunden - Job speichern ... "
Orion Schmidt Oct 18, 2019:
This appears to be an internal department code that probably doesn’t require translation. You’d have to ask your client how they want you to handle it.

Reference:

Putting in "Abteilung EGNA" ...

... as a search term yields exactly one hit with the following wording:

Volkswagen Jobs in Wahrenholz - Oktober 2018 | Indeed.com
https://de.indeed.com › Volkswagen-Jobs-in-Wahrenholz
Die Abteilung EGNA ist verantwortlich für die Gesamtfahrzeugakustik aller Volkswagen PKW der Klassen Small und Compact.... vor 22 Stunden - Job speichern ...

This "snippet" is only visible on the search page - the actual ad has obviously been removed from de.indeed.com.

See also http://docplayer.org/78325532-Umwelt-managementsystem-audit-... (Audit Plan VW Wolfsburg, p. 34) in the "Beteiligte Abteilung" column (15 Nov, 11:00 - 12:30, Entwicklung Gesamtfahrzeug Fahrwiderstandslinie Fahrzeugakustik EGPE / EGNA / EG/S).

I'd leave the acronym unchanged.
Peer comments on this reference comment:

agree Björn Vrooman : Found that first link, too. Still not sure what each letter stands for. Since we're in Germany, it must be EngelsGleich Normierte Akustik. // Or maybe Extrem Grooviger Niedersächsischer Autosound. Perhaps we should send all of these to VW!

Or Extraordinär Gute Neuwagen-Akustik ;-)
