My wife is driving my car, and I just called her. She asked how to make the call audio louder, I told her to spin the wheel on the steering wheel, no dice. Sometimes it's happened to me and I just end the call, call back from the car, and it recognizes volume changes at that point. I called her back, no dice again.
Is this a common weird glitch? I can never predict when it happens...

Re: Bluetooth Call Volume
The knob has a mind of its own. When I turn it sometimes it spazzes out and jumps up a dozen points or down six etc. Steering wheel volume control works perfect. Doesnt happen with every call and if i make the call from the Caprice, I believe it works fine everytime. Receiving calls is when it's funny.

Re: Bluetooth Call Volume
That's the same as my '11. Knob is wacky. Maybe the volume on the radio is maxed out but her phone's volume is down. I have an app on my Android phone called A2DP volume. You can set it to automatically max the volume whenever the phone connects to the car. It even reads out text messages over the radio via Bluetooth (way cool!). Other options too like automatically start an app like Spotify so you don't have to start it manually.lastcall190 wrote: ↑Sat Jun 29, 2019 8:06 am The knob has a mind of its own.

Re: Bluetooth Call Volume
it does that because the contacts are dirty , from lack of use , though even using it will cause it sometimes
while the radio is off , rapidly rotate the volume knob in both directions , that is the easiest way to clean the contacts , since you cant get into the radio and spray contact cleaner lube into it
