Stereo volume reduced when braking suddenly??

Hi guys

I've a problem with my 9n that i bought in July
Basically, when i brake suddenly or reduce my speed from say 60mph to 20mph quite quickly, my volume on my stereo drops.

I understand this could obviously be an electrical fault, but it surprises me that it would be linked with my braking..

Anyone have any idea what would be causing this?

Cheers

It's called GALA. The volume also goes up when you speed up to counter road/wind noise.

Really? Phew, thought id have to book my car into a local autoelectrician!
Thanks guys, just thought i'd ask about :D

..although, i think i should have read the manual when i got the car rather than play about in it as soon as i got the keys haha ;)

cheers again!
