Default Clock eventually gets slightly off.

Whenever I set up the clock to the correct time after a couple months it is always ahead 3-5 minutes. Its a small issue but does anyone else have this? I have a Ap1 where the clock is on the radio. Not really a big issue but it got me thinking if anyone else has this.

I have this same issue but with my alphine ida-x305. I set it and a few months later, it's 5-8 mins ahead.

clearly driving your S at a high rate of speed has gradually transported you and it slightly into the future every time you hit vtec.

Traveling at a high speed would slow time for you relative to everyone around you. So, your clock should be behind everyone else's not faster.

I've seen this problem mentioned before. the solution is to V-TEC in reverse a few times each month and that will keep the clock in sync.

Those of us with OCD when it comes to time (such as me) find this quite annoying! I can tell you every clock I interact with how far off it gets after a week... Thankfully my OCD doesn't extend to the seconds yet
