If the source is indeed your phone, then that's where the problem almost certainly lies. To be sure, just switch your source from the phone to the car's radio. If the volume is more reasonable then the problem is definitely the sound settings on your phone and nothing to do with the carI think the phone...and I keep my phone on hi volume...so I will experiment...thanks

Mine does this too when using my phone as the source through bluetooth. I have yet to figure out how to fix it because it happens even when the volume on my phone is low or off when I get in the car ... it's like it resets it to hi. Very, very annoying when I forget, that's for sure.
I have a similar problem using iPhone 13 Pro. The volume resets to high anytime a new app makes a sound. For example:
Other times the volume shows 1, but it plays at 10.
It is SUPER unsafe. I took it in for service but they had no idea, and I didn’t figure out how to replicate it well until after I left. Will return.

- Text message
- New email
- Nest app alert

I haven’t had an issue in my five days of ownership. I generally have my phone on vibrate and my volume all the way down, and turn it up per circumstance if I need sound for something. In my old car, when my phone connected to the Bluetooth, the phone would change to maybe 85-90% volume and the car would always start set at whatever volume (maybe I had set this previously - not sure). With the Tesla, when the phone connects to Bluetooth, it adjusts the phone to maybe 8% and I adjust the volume as required (up) through the scroll wheel.

I have a second generation iPhone SE. It's operating system is currently up to date. For what it's worth, I have never had any problems with the volume levels on in my M3 when using the phone to play music via bluetooth. Also, any text messages the car "reads" to me are at a normal level. So is the ringtone when I get a call in the car. I'm stumped by the problems some of you are having.

We’re having the same problem. It started with the Christmas software update and I haven’t been able resolve it. We have an end of warranty appointment this week, and plan to ask if they have a solution.

Thanks for the info. I’ll try it. Not sure why they have car stereo and speaker for options.

Trust me, it works and will have no impact on the automatic Bluetooth hand off to your car each time you enter the vehicle.

I had the same annoying problem. I tried your method since two weeks ago and it seems to work! Thanks a lot!
