Head Unit Speed sensative radio ?

Rich 11 · 28th May 2008, 07:43

Is the radio speed sensative ? I mean the quicker you drive the louder it gets ? Does it have this function ?

andyp · 28th May 2008, 07:49

EX does, don't know about others

NoNumpty · 28th May 2008, 08:00

ES Does

but why can't Honda create a really quite car so this function is not required

Pottsy · 28th May 2008, 08:05

It's called SVC, and it works well.

I agree. I think it's a nice feature and one I have had in other cars.

You can also set it to off, low, medium and high. The dealer set it to high on my car when we were going through the car when I picked it up.

Can be useful sometimes

Mines always full blast so rarely notice the difference, however with book on CD it's a handy feature, when you get on the motorway.

It's a shame the receiver is so poor the radio volume is all over the place a lot of the time anyway.

I must be one of the lucky ones as my radio is great.

Never really used my radio, except to try and find the Hatton return fight, but couldn't

You can also, via the settings, decide by how much the volume increases. I've got mine set to "Hi" as it does get a bit noisy at times.

On non Sat Nav models, press the manual tuner button (on the LHS of radio on RHD models) and it flicks through Bass, Treble, Balance, Fader and then SVC then turn the same knob to set Off, Low, Med, High.

I've got it on my SE. It is on all models, like Pottsy said its SVC in the radio menu

Rich 11 · 28th May 2008, 13:34

Cheers guys found it.................thanks

Coldwarkid · 30th May 2008, 14:34

Only notice it when I slow down and the volume goes down.

ViBe · 30th May 2008, 18:24

I've got it on my "Sport" as it is called here in sweden.. don't know which version it is over there, but its a nice extra that adds up to the many other nice things in the car

Dimplyred · 30th May 2008, 18:33

I like it too, it's quite a useful function.

parkers142 · 30th May 2008, 18:41

Works great on mine, would also like to agree with happyman, my radio and speakers are great, give a fantastic sound.
