Default Non-ML stereo - auto volume?

For the non-ML system, is there any setting for it to auto-adjust the volume based on ambient sound? I notice that I have to set the volume at mid-20s in city driving, then go up to 8-10 levels up in highway driving. Might be my Dunlops being loud, but it would be nice if the volume adjusted automatically. Anybody know if this feature is available? I tried looking at all the settings multiple times already and may have missed it.

It's not under the sound options (bottom left of screen) on the radio screen?

Tried toggling the options that were there on and off. Didn't seem to be any of those. Anybody having the same problem I am?

There is a automatic sound Levelizer option - but in my car, it seems to not do anything. I spoke with the service manager at the dealership when I took it in for servicing, and they said that the ASL is a little less effective, but "working as designed - no problem found"

See page 474 at http://drivers.lexus.com/t3Portal/do.../sec_05-03.pdf

Ohhhh. Maybe that's why I couldn't find it. Doesn't seem to work with me either - at least to my ears.
Thanks!!!!
