I have a Mazda 2 (2017 model) with a touchscreen, but my model also has a rotary control knob which works great - I never have to touch the screen - in fact it's being disabled when I reach 30km/h. The nastiest problem I have is bluetooth volume - where FM/USB (mp3) playback at volume 9-10 (out of 50) are perfect, for bluetooth I have to be at 34-37 to be on the same level. And the problem is when switching between them - the horror!!! But even worse is if I forget to activate bluetooth on my phone and start the car, which after a few seconds of trying to connect to the phone switches automatically to FM and BLARES the fucking sound at me! It's insane.

I didn't have this problem with a Sony player in a rather old car (Opel Astra 2001). It remembered the volume setting for each function separately, so when you switched between FM, usb playback or bluetooth you had the volume you used previously for each.

I contacted Mazda with this problem, but they never bothered to answer.
