clock problem
hello, i have a 2000 s500, and the clock time seems to lose seconds to minutes dramatically over time. over the course of 3-5 days, the time will have fallen behind about 5 min or more. I have to keep adjusting it in the sys menu. I understand this is somewhat normal, but usually it takes weeks to months just to lose maybe an incredible fraction of a millisecond. Does anyone know whats wrong? thanks

Any AMG Thats Around..
lol.... when i was working at benz and some guy complained about the same thing!!! I forgot what type of benz he had... but after 3 times back to see the dealer... i actually researched! I thought the guy was nutz, but to my surprise.... There was actually a DTB on the clock in his model car losing time.. and it was a really small # of seconds per day..... Im prob the only person to acually solve this problem for someone... lol, i could see any other benz service person blowing the customer off for such a problem....
SOOooo.... have your local dealer do a DTB search for time, or seconds... like i said i forgot what model car he had... but it will come up under a general search....
Good luck
