Thanks for a fast a good answer.



>Maybe it has a custom OS loaded, but more likely memory is faulty.


Okey.. Either way theres probably not much i can do about that.?


>Note: you have to either set date before time - or time before date - for the clock to work. Try both ways around.


Okey, havent done that.. Ill give it a go...



>Does the time appear in the instrument cluster OK?
the clock is actually in the instrument cluster, and the nav takes the time data from the cluster and displays it on the nav.
So when you set the time it sends a "set time to xxxx" command to the cluster and the cluster adjusts its clock.
Then the cluster sends the time back to the nav and the nav displays it.
So a key check is to see if the cluster is accepting the time change.


Thats the thing. The cluster does not show the time..?? I can read average consumption, average speed and temperature.. I think thats about it.. I found this a bit strange when i bought the car, but did not think too much about it..


>Easiest way to solve would be to buy a Mk4 - enjoy much faster speeds, 3D display, and more...


I would like to just buy the mk4, but i guess with the 16:9 monitor its gonna be quite expensive.....




The car was imported to Norway from USA in 2002.. At that time there was a cd player in the car. Not sure if there was any navigation.. The cd player was replaced to correspond with the european standard..
