Not unless Vag Com can cut wires and reroute PA connections.

For whatever the reason, some don't seem to really have the issue...

I'm an audiophile, and I do listen to bassy music, but I have never noticed Audiopilot messing with the volume in the Bose on my wife's 2004 S4.

I have <b>no</b> idea why...

It won't help.

The satellite receivers used in the Audis have very poor sound quality.

The Audiopilot TSB won't help that any.

My audiopilot only messes with the volume when it is turned pretty low (below 10 I believe).

If you turn the stereo up to about 17 or so, I don't seem to notice anything wrong.

However, I have another issue: My Sirius tuner sounds like crap. It seems to lack fidelity and sounds kind of "digitized" or sort of like a crappy MP3. I do acknowledge that the volume or gain on the tuner is lower when compared to the CD or AM/FM, but it's easy to compensate for the volume by just turning it up.

Anyone have this sound quality issue with their Sirius or XM tuner (stock one) in their car? I swear my FM stations sound better and more crisp than my Sirius stations. I'm in the SF Bay, just in case you're wondering where I'm using my FM.
