clock reset
I can't believe I have to ask this, but I cannot figure out how to reset the clock in my '08 that has the Nav system. I have gone through the menus I find and looked in the owners manual but only find out how to reset the clock in the non-nav system raadio. Thanks for any and all advice.

The clock sets itself off the GPS system IIRC, you need to set whether its using DST or not. From the main screen, touch the time symbol and it will take you to a setting screen. Going from memory here as I don't have the manual with me.
Also, if you're looking in the main owners manual, you're in the wrong spot. The nav system has its own manual which includes radio functions.
