Great thread! Now i know why i keep nearly stalling. Stupid brake is being applied. Might just be me but i don't think it's just when on an incline. 20 yrs of driving a stick and I'm stalling while showing the car to friends/family. Kinda embarrassing.

Regarding the sound volume indicator. I think it's absent because the car adjusts the volume based on cabin noise level...or maybe it's speed. I know my e46 did this. You really don't notice until you drive another car without this feature and find yourself adjusting the volume at every light. It's a nice feature that you may not know exists, which means it's doing its job because you shouldn't.

Edit: probably the same reason the dial isn't analog like most un-smart cars
