Is it me or does it seem like the Automatic Volume Control Doesn't work all that well.. seems like some time i notice that the volume increases, but not by much during acceleration. Has anyone else even noticed this?

 

Don, the only volume control I have experienced with my car is that once you hit about 60 mph, the volume does go up slightly. But, other than that, can't say that I have noticed anything.

 

i was just wondering b/c i rented a chevy and when i accerlerated .. man you really noticed a difference in the volume.. but as long as i'm not the only one experiencing this.. then it's cool..

 

Are you aware that the AVC effect is adjustable? This is from the Audio System Handbook that should have come with your vehicle's documentation packet:

Automatic volume control (AVC)

This maintains radio volume at a level
sufficient to overcome road noise as
vehicle speed increases or decreases.
To activate AVC, press and hold the
volume control knob until AVC is
displayed. To de-activate AVC,
momentarily press the volume control
knob again. The level of AVC control can
be adjusted by turning the volume
control knob whilst in AVC ON mode.
When AVC is ON, manual adjustment of
volume will override the AVC setting.
