yah, i started fiddling with those 2 buttons as I was driving and it flashed "RESET" which scared the heck outta me. I just stopped and restarted the car and it seemed to forget the button I pushed.....I think.

I will do it your way now.

Yeah I hadn't gotten around to changing mine yet. Was fixing to take a peek at the bible myself.

I've tried this, and it hasn't worked. Tried it in positions 0, 1, 2, and 3. I press button 2 for ages, and nothing happens.

should work, mine's an 07 and it works as stated.

Button 2 is your oil check button. Turn ignition switch on but don't start the car. Press 2, hours will start to flash. etc, etc.

Yep, that's correct, it's the oil one; but still doesn't work. Not sure why!

Make sure it's displaying the clock before you do it?

I was going to point out that in mine you have to have the time on the radio aswell to change it, but was beaten to it.

on a slightly different note does anyone know if you can get the time to display if you fit an aftermarket HU.
