B&W system- random volume increase when listening to XM
So since getting the car, at completely random intervals, my radio volume while listening to Sirius XM will go up for a half second and settle back down.
Its pretty strange and has nothing to do with the speed dependent volume. It like spikes and comes back down. Any experience this? |

Nope, mine works fine. Does it do this with any other media? That would almost rule out a hardware problem if it doesn't ("almost" because I don't know if there is a special receiver just for XM). Sounds like probably a dealer visit.

My whole audio system used to just turn up the volume randomly after you drove for a while, not speed dependent just would go up like 10% or so, complained a few times, then eventually got a software update and never had the isssue again - this was a couple years ago now.

Do you have "gesture control" by any chance? I had that in a loaner and it drove me nuts that the radio went on/off low/high at "random". I found out I talk a lot with my hands.

When I bought my car gesture control was a free option, after one day I knew why and turned it off as I would just set the thing off constantly, then every software update it comes back on and reminds me how much I hate it after I trigger it a few minutes later.
