Display Question

When I change radio stations, swith functions (FM to AUX) etc. There is a lag of various times (30 secs-4minutes) between the display on the radio screen and the display in the speedo. Should the two match up as soon a change is made, or is this lag time normal. If it is normal, why is the lag time not consistant? Thanks for any input you all may have.

No, that is not normal. The only time I see a delay is when I switch over to my iPod where I see' Wait...' in the display until the iPod is up an running. Other than that there should not be more than 1-2 sec delay.
