I have the clocks set for 12 hour format. From 1:00 pm to 1:59 pm, the digital time in the center of the instrument panel reads fine, but the time display on the I-drive reads 13:00 to 13:59. At 2 pm it reads like it should. Can anything be done? Do I need an Exorcist?

Ctrl-alt-delete??? It is so strange that it seams it just needs a jolt. Or a time reset. Volume knob and the two ejects.

That's military time based on a 24hr clock! Maybe ya need a software update.

Eh... no worries... its a BMW thing... my MINI displays 0:00 for 12:00am for that hour and then when it reaches 1:00a.m it displays the proper 12 hr format again.. and its fine at any other time besides the 12:00a.m. midnight hour...

Sounds like a software bug if it's only that hour that's wrong.

I'm used to 24hr format being everywhere. Wasn't until a recent visit to the US that I realised how 12hr format you guys are.

Hahah ya... most likely its a bug... but i dont think BMW has tried to fix it for the MINI... it doesnt bother me at all since I'm hardly on the road at midnight to notice it... except yesterday... I've seen it a total of 3 times since I've owned the car.
