I have done a search, and can't seem to find the post about setting the OBC, date and time. I remember someone posting it from a manual, does anyone remember?

Larry... Just go to the function you want to change (Time), then press in the little hidden button with a pen, and then use the 1000/100/10/1 buttons to set the time, then press in that little hidden button again. Change the OBC to date, press in the hidden button.... _________________ Cosmo - 1985 BMW 325e, Single Owner, 265,000+ ORIGINAL miles and still going strong!

Yes, it's BMW's equivalent of Staples' Easy Button !
BTW... If you're set to something other than US measures, that clock works as 24 hours! _________________ Cosmo - 1985 BMW 325e, Single Owner, 265,000+ ORIGINAL miles and still going strong! But now on the East Coast and the salt air corrosion is eating my beautiful car alive...
