How do you change TIME & DATE pass the actual
This may sound stupid or funny but have you try to change the TIME & DATE of your w204 pass the actual time or date lets say plus 2 days.
I try this but it won't work. I'm not sure if it's getting some sort of time sync with the satellites or what.
My car came from the USA but it's now re-located to the Philippines and for some reasons I can't change the time to our local time it's like 6 hours late and they MM does not allow me to advance the clock any further.
For example to day is March 5 there is no way I can try to make it March 7

I just got an e-mail reminder from MB to adjust the time on 3/9/08 and they linked it to MBUSA which has the e-owner's manual. You should check your manual as it shows how to adjust the time. You can also go to MBUSA and sign into the owner's section and select the e-manual option and get the info that you need.

I have downloaded a e-manual from MB but clock settings with COMMAND it says I have to refer to Seperate Command Instructions which is not available online.
XJ9 if the command time comes from GPS then it should be able to access the GPS orbiting here in the Philippines.
Is there a way for me to tell the command to do a new GPS search?
What is a DAS machine? Is this the computer that they plug to the car at the dealership during service?
Technically my NAV should not work as I don't have a MAP for the Philippines but for some reasons when I use the car with the NAV on it's telling the command I'm somewhere in the USA

No brick manual yet I have to wait another 5 days and hopefully I'll get it with the spare key.
But do you have anything in the brick manual that says how to adjust time with the command?
