Speed dependent volume

[pharmed]

How can this be turned off on a 2003 e85?

I'm not a fan of this - Can it be coded?

Set it to 0, that means it is not doing anything.

 

[pharmed]

I can't see a setting for it?!

From memory ....

I think there is a music note button, and after you press that you can change the increments. Turn it one way to decrease, the other to increase.

Press the button with musical note on it until you get to SPEED VOL then press the + or - for the desired setting,ive only got the Business HU so not sure if is different for the better audio systems.

I have the Sat nav system, think its different?

 

[Redzedfour]

try the Menu button and see if you get the option to set the SPEED VOL.

I don't have any such option :|

 

[pvr]

Did you try pressing the musical note button?

 

[pharmed]

I can't see a musical note button lol

Ah ... can't remember exactly.

Could it be in the setup menu (push the menu button for 8 seconds to get in the hidden menu from setup).

It is so long ago I adjusted mine I can't remember the details.

Even on the lowest setting, mine still increases volume at speed

Ok I went into the hidden menu too, nothing about speed volume etc (turned on perspective GPS on another note... )

Watching thread, would love to know how to turn this anoying feature off.

I'm starting to think we can't!

(Coding may be the only way, if possible..)

 

[pvr]

It is possible, just can't remember how I did it ...

From another forum (not tried this myself yet and not sure if for e85 with nav)

Adjusting the speed sensitive Audio volume setting
1. Turn radio off and then on.
2. Press an hold the "SEL" button.(I believe for like 10 seconds or so)
3. Radio will display the software version.
4. Use the "<>" button to go thru the settings.
5. Find one that says "GAL"
6. Use the "1,2,3,4,5,6" buttons to change the value (1-6, 1 is lowest, 6 is highest speed volume compensation)... you cannot set it off.
7. Turn radio off and then on.

There are several hidden resets with this vehicle. Windows, adaptive throttle, etc. Most of which have been posted here, which is how I got them . I'll try to post them in a seperate thread.

Another post relating to GAL option in hidden menu...

For "NAV" there is no mention in the manual. I had found the fix in the x3world.com forums. For more information search for GAL (Geschwindigkeits (speed) abhaengige (depending) Lautstaerke (volume)).

Try this:
Set the Audio source to the radio.
Turn the Radio OFF
Turn the Radio ON
Press and hold the SEL button for 10 seconds (you get into the hidden menu).
Use the < and > to change to the GAL screen
Change the value of GAL with the preset number buttons, 1 = little change, 6 = large change.
Turn radio OFF to save new settings.

Try it! (I will when I can get to my car again!)

Just an update... Still no closer to figuring this out!

Has anyone had any luck?

Fantastic, worked for me. Thanks!
