  • Sorry, but my karma just ran over your dogma.
I had a really great song playing on the iPod the other day, so I turned it up a bit to get a bit of a blast.  :D :D :D
While sitting at the lights with an old biddy looking at me like was some kind of spaced out teenager, I decided I'd make her day by turning the volume up to maximum.  :Shocked: :Shocked:

I got the volume to 35 and was wondering do all i30 sound systems max out at 35 or am I the only idiot who has pushed the limits :question: :question:

mine stops at 35 as well.. somehow driving along i just keep hitting that volume up button on the steering wheel. The scary time is when you get back in the car and the volume nearly gives you a heart attack lol.... life without music would be so dull!! :yahoo:

Some of my classical recordings are quite "soft", so I crank the vol upto 35 (seems to be the max). Cripples me when it then shuffles to a current pop track :eek:

As for resetting, mine never starts higher than 14 when I've had the key out... seems to reset to that 'safe level'. I've got SDVC activated, dunno whether that matters.

Bloody hell.
I run around town at about 8 and up it to 12 if I want to hear the news and I'm on the highway.

And my wife complains that's too loud. :-[

Update. Mine goes to 35, too. Well 34, then "Max".

Now, I'm off to get my hearing tested. :mrgreen:

Mine will restart at the level I was on when I turned it off.

So if at 3 restart at 3.  If 24 restart at 24.
  • 1.4 Petrol Active I'm no expert, so please correct me if

yes,and my kids think that's really funny.  :faint: :twisted: lets listen to mum or dads radio for a while up flat out,then turn off the ignition and give back the keys.  :scared: :scared: :Shocked: :wacko: when you start up your car at 4.30am and the radio goes flat out,poor neighbours.  :faint: :-[
