Slow clock.

Chan Chee Hoe · 05-08-2010, 12:02 PM

Hi Friends,i noticed my car's clock is a bit slow,about 45-60 secs per month,anybody got this issue.?I suspect every time we start the car the clock with stop for 2-3 secs.

Most all digital clocks are like this, unless they have the ability to sync back to a source, and yes mine does it also.

Never noticed

Never even noticed but I'll start watching and let you know

I noticed that eveytime I synch the dash board one with the Nav one the dash falls behind. It gets annoying to see to different times in one field of vision. Nissan should have put something else on the dash.

45 seconds per month, and this is an issue?? lol...

To busy pushing the acclerator to notice. I pay more attention to oil temp than clock.

Yeah, I notice its a bit slow, but its not like a cheap automatic watch or anything.

My clock is slow because it was a pain on the a$$ to set up when the time changed.

Haha... I always forget how to change it and fumble around with the radio til I remember its over at the left pod.

Einstein's threory of relitivity proved that as you travel at high rates of speed time slows down inside the vehicle as relitive to time outside the vehicle. So maybe it not Nissan's fault.

Mine is often slow. More like a minute per week.

When I adjust it, i set it one minute fast.

. It lasts for about 2 weeks.
