Auto volume on radio?
When I speed up my radio seems to get a bit louder. When I slow down/stop it turns itself down. Is this a neat feature or is my mind playing tricks on me? 2003 SL500, stock BOSE stereo.

Automatic volume control
It's been on quite a few cars for several years.

Can this feature be disabled? I would prefer controlling the volume on my own.

Thanks.

Yes, you navigate through the "config" menu to turn it off or lower the effect.

I can't find in the menu option to disable it. Is it a hidden config? Care to share on how to access it if hidden?
Thanks

As I do more research, looks like it takes the Star Service setup to do it.
I thought the SVC button led to an adjustment, but it may have been on the W210....
