If you have the 2010 model you would have a boost function which increases the volume output from the aux.

The knob inside the glove box has nothing to do with the sound output.

That gray knob on the left hand side controls airflow that goes into the glovebox to cool or heat.

Yes, the sound quality from the aux is terrible. I don't listen to my ipod in the car since it sounds like crap. I hope the people with the integration kit have much better sound.

there is a COMAND update, and maybe even an update for the regular non MM car that includes and audio boost function. ask your dealer, though you might have a hard time getting them to do it.
