No one wants to tell me

The volume increases without anythign showing on the display, you could be drowning out the radio with the different road noises from the road surface. Try driving along a tarmac road and testing it there; it should reduce the road noise enough to let you hear the volume change. But remember the volume doesn't change that much with speed i.e. from about 5 to 10 by going from 25 to 50 MPH by my ear I reckon it only goes up 2 maybe 3 points for every doubling in speed. I usually stick it at 7 or 8 and raise it manually if I am going over a concrete road surface.

Renault's system is better because you CAN set how fast the volume changes not just wether or not it varies with road speed.

Life..... don't talk to me about life! my car still needs me to turn a key to make it start.

Clockwork???

I used to find the nest way to detect the auto-volume was to listen for it reducing on decelleration, rather than the other way round.

Choose a nice empty motorway slip road and depress the cluth at the top to reduce engine noise. Then listen carefully as you brake to a halt fairly quickly.

NO RUBBER BAND..

Isn't that stretching it a bit! ;o)

OK so I bought the car from a character with a pointy blue hat with a bell on the end who kept nodding his head a lot. BUT the yellow colour scheme with red bumpers really is an eye-catcher.
