Volume display?
I cannot find any indication of stereo volume. At any point, I wouldn't know what volume I'm at other than hearing with my ears.
Is it just me missing to see the volume indication?

Of course, I also think the odometer should be displayed all the time but what do I know!

I can agree that a temporary volume indicator would be handy, though I have been living without it for 17 months now and not really missed it.
I do not really see the need for a permanent odometer. Stepping out of the car gives me a great view on the odometer. Basically the only time I might really need it.
By nature people like to hang on to things they have been used to from the past. The odometer was simply there because it was a physical thing. And yes we need it's value now and then. But I don't see any use for it while driving.

I've got a bigger gripe with the radio volume. I tend to blast music before I get out of my car. The volume stays at the same level when you restart the car. WTF. My VW had an option to set the startup volume.

i could care less about a volume display, I have ears. However getting into the car for loud music to suddenly blurt out isn't doing anything for my blood pressure. My BMW lowers the volume on each new start.

mine doesn't do this. it goes to the same volume every time I start the car up. Even if i get out of the car with it muted it comes back at a preset volume.

I have the Burmeister system and COMMAND and it reverts back to the last volume on startup. My VW has an option in the settings menu to set startup volume.
