I swear when I go from something like the highway(Fast high rpm) to stoplight(low idle rpm, slow driving) My volume on the stereo gets lower although the actual number doesnt change.
Then when I speed up again the volume will get louder.

Am I the only one who thinks this?!?

Am I crazy!?

Or is this some "feature" they addded in?

 

well you being crazy is beyond the point lol (couldn't resist)

but seriously.. if you have an 06 tC.. with the 06 headunit (the one with the volume ****).. it has a feature for volume control based on speed.. you can turn it off, it's in your radio's manual..

 

ahhh, that must be it!
Of all the stuff I read when I bought the car, I did not read the radio manual very well.
Guess Im going to get to that right now !

I guess I am a little crazy either way though =P
oh, and thanks for the info.

 

Bleh, no wonder I didnt read them, I dont freakin have them in my little firstaid kit thing ><
Damn, I wonder if I didnt get the radio manual, I know my g/f got one with her xA. I am piisssed ..... I hate not having a little paper no matter how unimportant.

 

I noticed it once around 40-45 and another around 60 mph in my gf's tc. I looked through the manual to see if they ahd some auto-adjust for road noise but I can't find anything. It's weird too b/c it happens as soon as you go over that mph barrier instead of a gradual increase.

 

This is not happening in my 05.

It's awesome, I love the feature.

No more after long driving do you have to turn the music down when you finally stop at a light. It does it automatically.

Great feature.

 

it's a little manual with plastic wrapping around it. it's in the audio controls menu, ASL

 

(sigh..) I said it once and I'll say it again....
Owner's manuals are your friends...

You have the ASL feature on. Press the audio mode button until it cycles through Bass, Treble, Fade, Balance, then ASL. To turn it off, turn the **** until it says "OFF"

 

that's a neat little feature

 

only the TC 06 has it... ITs Pioneer.... I love it...

 

he said that he doesnt have the manual

 

How can he RTFM if he doesnt have TFM ?

 

yeah I like this feature also...

My 03 Mazda6 had it too

 

the stock HU sucks. It was the first thing I changed on my tC.

 

Cool, guy. Just like you switched the engine out right away with that John Deere?

 

^^^John Deere? thats great. 25HP weeeeeeeeeee

haha

 

Thanks for telling me how to turn it off.

Yep, I didnt get my Radio Manual.
I read every page of every paper I got with my car the first night I bought it =P

 

25hp? Diesel.... what about the torque?
