I read about that on NAM. Apparently it is because the clock is controlled by the computer on '05+ models. Some have slow clocks, some fast, and some just right. I really don't pay attention to the clock, but I don't think mine is off that much. I wonder if the pre-'05 overhead clock could be retrofitted somehow. It's much nicer than the airbag warning light overhead. :cool:

My clock will gain 20-25 mins everytime I set it. I told my SA the last time I was at Moritz and he said they might have to replace the computer to get things right. There was someone coming in to have that done a few days after I left but I haven't heard from him yet. The SA didnot know if replacing the computer would correct the problem as alot of owners have this problem.

My 02 gradually creeps ahead. I usually notice a gain of about 1-2 minutes a month. Wierd.
