Jeez, so things are also iffy with Avant4 just like Dynavin N6 I'm throwing out

. Of course, an Android system is still miles ahead

Now if I could just figure out why the cluster and heating and cooling control show in C instead of F I'd be happy. No matter what I do seems to get it to change. It shows everything in the IBUS app in F. I did a factory reset on the Avin and the IBUS app when the problem first happened, but it didn't fix it. Maybe an email to the IBUS guy is in order.

Changing iBUS autostart as suggested seems to be working. Thanks!

Got rid of dynavin N6 and fired up the cannon for a fully loaded Avin4. It was such a hustle removing the dynavin extension cable as I had followed the OEM nav cable path. I will follow a different path with the Avin 6m cable- from the dash, then to the right to passenger side, then to the rear.

Does anybody know how to solve the issue of when the device starts when you turn the car on DSP is not enabled and so the audio of the unit is extremely loud and have to turn the volume down or press the DSP button in the iBus app and the volume goes down lower because DSP is enabled at that point.

I would like DSP to always be enabled on launch but I can't find a setting that does that. I've gone into the iBus app into the DSP specific settings I tried turning on DSP second start I've tried fiddling with the DSP start level but none of that changes anything.

I have the same problem about 1 out of 20 starts. I have also experienced the DSP send signal not happen and my Avant-4 has no sound. As you point out a quick press of the DSP button starts everything and it is fine but annoying. I guess it it just part of the start up. I looked in the settings as well and found a DSP second start and seemed to help.

Glad I ditched the dsp system. Of course my amps are still sitting in a closet... And I have no audio... So yeah, you guys are still winning.

Glad the exhaust makes such nice noises.

Why are you guys cutting the harness? Just out of curiosity.

I was kind of wondering the same thing. I just can't bring myself to cutting brand new harnesses and then butt splicing them back together.

Because you have to take a lot less of the car apart to fish the harness. You can get the harness without the connectors through much smaller spaces. I had seen a Youtube of the installation that they cut off the connectors at one end. I didn't see the sense in it after watching it, so I was going to do it without cutting the harness. It quickly became apparent I would need to take a lot of stuff apart to run the harness with the connectors. Butt splicing the harness back together is less work. IMHO.
