Default Whenever I turn my car on.....

the radio is always at the same level and it's pretty loud. Does that happen to you all as well?

Default Yep

and it scares the hell out of me when I'm pulling out of the garage at 5 in the morning to attend to my fitness needs. The Sirius kicks in just about 1/2 way down the driveway. . .

I think mine turns on at the last volume level I was using... but I may be wrong.

Default IIRC, it can be lowered via VAG-COM.

The volume resets to the pre-set level whenever the car has been of more than a few minutes.

Can the dealer do that for me or do I need to order the vag-com tool?

Default I don't think so....at least I've never noticed that.

maybe it's because I'm partially deaf from going to too many metal shows.

Default I was gonna ask this same question. It happens on my S4.

The default does seem a little loud and I find myself having to turn it down a lot right after starting the car. I'm also annoyed by the fact that if the radio is on mute when turning off the car it's unmuted next time the car starts. No idea why Audi decided not to preserve these settings. If I'm not mistaken, at least the RNS-E stays off if you turn it off.

Can you not pre set a turn on volume? I know I can in my A4.
