We've rented a few slingshots and I have a flash drive I take with to listen to music. Up until this past week, we couldn't hear the music when we got over 35 mph. This weekend, the volume was fantastic, I was on interstate and I could hear the music just fine. They have all been R models, anywhere from 3 years old to new.(The one we could hear was about 1 year old). Is there setting on the radio that could make the radio more audible? I didn't play with any settings/buttons.

sometimes on mine the volume doesnt go up high and i foubd that if i press the pause button ont he steering wheel then play it again the volume fixes itself and goes back to loud, its super weird and it does it on bluetooth from what i remember i rarely use the radio. before i found that quick fix i would have to switch to radio then back to bluetooth to fix the volume

I own a 2022 SL and I will say this... music volume is terrible especially using a flash drive or bluetooth. A lot deals with the mp3 file volume itself. I have done volume level adjusting on most the files I listen to in the SS. What you are referring to in Ride Command is go to Settings, Audio, then adjust Automatic Volume Control to the level you wish. I usually use high, but be aware, if you have navigation voice on it is very loud! I can have my volume on 7-8 and while stopped I can barely hear the music. I would say the only way to get GREAT volume would be to add an amp or more speakers. Hope this helps.
