I have keyless go and P2, and I do not have the problem. I have also turned off speed-sensitive volume control and auto-mute with the navi.

Oh well, that's why they're called theories.

My understanding is that it is part of the HK Logic 7, which I have turned off altogether. I am no audiophile - and certainly can't use the correct terminology and lingo - but to me the music loses all its subtleties when Logic 7 is turned on. So mine is off. Same thing on my home system (not HK though). Music run through Pro Logic seems to come primarily through the center channel speaker, which is what HK Logic 7 sounds like to me in the car. Turn that off, and the music spreads to really good speakers and moves through the room or car - the singer right, the guitar left, the drums center, etc.

i do have logic 7 but haven't turned it off from day one. will try it out. but does it mean the speed sensitive volume control only works when logic 7 off ? where is it anyway ?

I think speed sensitive volume is a feature of Logic 7, so by turning off Logic 7 you turn off speed sensitive volume. I have not seen a separate control for speed sensitive volume. My recollection is that the Logic 7 on/off is in the same menu as the one where you adjust balance, fade, etc.

i see now and thanks for verifying . i kind of remember my previous bmw has the same feature but in a separate control which you can adjust the volume higher or lower.

I know this is a very old thread, but did anyone ever work this out? I own a W212 E350 and this has been annoying me for ages.
