Default Can't set the date!

Hello

Another question for the experienced amongst us

I can set the time OK but there seems no way to set the date on my 2005 Cayenne Turbo

On the main screen I can adjust the time and adjust the date order but there seems no provision to set the actual date?

Just wondering if anyone has any thoughts on this?

One thing to mention - My Navi is not picking up satellites and is 'off map' so Ive checked it out and ordered a new antenna - will this be stopping me setting the date?

You set the time and date through the dash display, not the PCM head.

If you don't have the manual for your Cayenne PM me and I can send you a pdf version for the 2005.

Thanks. I've got the manual but on the setting time/date it doesn't tell me how to set the date - just the date format.

I've tried via the PCM and the dashboard.

Please can someone help as it's doing my head in

Many thanks

I'm not sure about the PCM 2.X versions but, on the PCM 3.0, to change the date:

a) Press INFO button
b) Press OPTION button
c) Select SET PCM system, DATE & TIME, DATE

Thanks Andy

Mines a UK car and I can't see an 'Option' button...Any ideas if there's an equivalent?

The problem I had with mine was the GPS antenna - Nav was down and couldn't set the date. Replaced the antenna and the Nav came back online and then it was possible to set.

It is annoying me because I like the main screen showing me time date and radio info. Now the date area is just blank.

I wonder if we got a bum GPS signal and our units responded appropriately? I will be taking it into my Indy for an oil change soon at hopefully they can PIWIS it

the date is automatically set by the GPS system, so says my service advisor and i have never had to set it so i didn't dig deeper 2008 2.1
