New Here... New Armada Owner!

[DJM]

Proud to be a new Armada owner! Especailly coming from a FORD (Fix Or Repair Daily) Expedition. Tried to search but no info found.
Is the volume of radio/DVD suppose to mute or decrease when put into reverse and sonar/camera activated? i.e. once the beeping starts is the radio supposed to decrease in volume?

Thanks!

Welcome to NICOclub! The staff here is thrilled to have you as a new member of the Armada Forum! Congrats on the new Armada Platinum! The volume does not decrease when I an in reverse, but maybe when the beeping is on, it does reduce the volume on the stereo. That is such a funny question only because I can't give you a straight answer and I have had my Armada Platinum for almost a year and a half. I guess I will pay attention when I make a run later this evening and let you know what mine does for sure.

Be sure to do the mod where you can watch DVD's on your front Nav screen while your vehicle is motion, so easy to do, and so worth it!

Thanks! Tried calling nissan USA and no one knew there either. What's direct link to the mod? I saw lots of them but is there a 'sticky' or permenate outline? Very stoked to be on forum.

[Timmbo]

The volume on my truck stays the same. There is a sticky that discusses the full details of the mod. Let me know if you have any questions! Enjoy your amazing ride!

What color did you get both inside and out?

[Timmbo]

What region of the country are you in? You get snow in the winter?

[DJM]

Smoke and black interior bench seat. 4wd. Tahoe region so great for winter!

[Timmbo]

The bench seat is totally the way to go with kids, I love it. Be careful in winter, the Michelin Latitude tires are terrible in ice and slush in the winter time. You may not have much of an issue this winter, but I am installing new tires for this winter.

I had the Pirelli Scorpion ATRs on the FORD Expedition and they were awesome. Stuck to the road really well in snow.

Timbo - can't find the sticky for the NAV MOD. Sorry. Can you provide the link?

[Timmbo]

It is the second one down in the stickies.

I'll see if I can hop in a few Armadas tomorrow and verify the volume thing.

My volume DOES NOT go down when it beeps.
