Bose sound
For those with the Bose system and CD changer, do you have to set your fader control almost completely to the rear (2 notches before only rear) to get some rear sound bias? I recently had my dealer install the changer and have had to change the fader setting in order to get a rear bias. This was not the case before installing the changer. The dealer claims this is normal as the system in another car sounds similar. But, I find this hard to believe/understand. Thanks for any insight.

Set your Extended Audio Setting to AMBIENTE, that should fix your problem. The service guy probably set it to "Off" during the installation.

It is worse on driver mode; I'd have even less rear bias than ambiante at the same setting. The dealer actually kept the car for almost a week for this "problem." They ended up replacing the rear shelf speaker. I really didn't notice much of a difference.
At this point, I think I will try another dealer as I'm afraid this dealer would make things worse. It's more of an inconvenience. But, I don't have much choice.
