My display reads 0:00 when it's midnight, is this supposed to happen? At 12:01 it reads 0:01 and so on until 1:00 when it displays normally. Not a big deal, just found it interesting...

Do you have it set for 24-hour time (military time)? For exampley, does it show 18:00 for 6:00PM?

Definitely sounds like military time setting. If you want to, you can turn off the on screen clock in the settings and use the beautiful analog infiniti clock to check time.

Its not the 24 hour clock setting; in the 12 hour mode; the software simply subtracts 12 from GPS time (in 24 hour format) and the result is that every day at Midnight, it reads 00:00 - its not a setting issue; and can not be changed - a bug, however its normal for this car until someone at infiniti decides they want to fix it;

the question should be does anyone have a car that works different, or had a software upgrade to fix this done?

Mine does that too, it is set for a 12hr day. It's always done it and I assume it always will - deosn't really bother me. I tell people that see it that the car is just so high tech it calculates time differently and more efficiently - come to think of it, my friends must be dumb or I'm very convincing - lol

Okay, glad I'm not the only one. Time is not set to military setting. I actually think it's kinda cool!

Just one of those things the M is known for. One in a long list of things they don't seem to give a s*** about fixing.
