I guess you have a 2001-2004 model C5, if you repeatedly press the audio button it changes the menu through bass, treble, loudness, balance and auto volume.
I think they are normally set to on at the factory.
Although you don't notice that the volume is increasing, try testing a car without it. You'll soon notice how well the Citroen system works!

Well, first of all I would cycle through the options and set it to Autovolume = off and then see if I can hear any difference. You never know.
There is also an option for setting the autovolume using a Lexia but whether this works the same as the display option or overrules it I don't know.

As I get older I think a lot about the hereafter - I go into a room and then wonder what I'm here after.

I have it set to on for both the Xsara and C5.
I notice it when I come to a halt at traffic lights after a run at speed when I can hear volume going down.
I can't, in all honesty, say I've noticed the volume increase with an increase with speed but that is probably because the response (changing volume) trails the speed.
