So has anybody had a problem with the analog clock on their GS? I have a 2018 GS350 and now it has happened twice that the analog clock is off by an hour or two but the digital one is right. First time, got it working after messing with the setting for a while and now today, my wife just turned the car on and the analog clock was off by 2 hours... wth?!? I'm leaving it alone like that because next week it goes in for maintenance so I'll be letting them know about it but it is annoying. Car is going in for the first maintenance and already has a stupid little problem, nothing serious but a problem nonetheless. I tried searching but didn't find anything so I was just wondering if I'm the only one that has had this issue... that is all.

I think the key is that your analog clock is off by exactly one or two hours. That suggests that your setup settings are likely not correct. If I am not mistaken I believe the analog clock on the newer models, like your 2018, are automatically controlled by the setup settings...unlike some older models like my 2013. In other words, if your GPS is set to the proper time zone and also DST it will maintain the analog clock's correct time. I'm not sure about that, but that is what I recall reading. Maybe some others with newer models can confirm this.

I had a 2018 RX350L loaner recently and that's how it was. Changed the setting via menu to read DST ON and it adjusted the analog clock and hour forward all by itself.

Thanks, that is pretty much how I got it fixed the first time. Problem is, why is it changing all by itself then? Now my wife is telling me that this is actually the third time (I didn't even know it had happened twice already) and that the analog looked like it was stuck or something and then it started working again but the time was still off. So basically now we have to go in there and change the settings so it goes back to the right times, again... oh well, it'll be in the shop on Wednesday.

18 owner here also. So far, no clock issue on mine. Let us know what the dealer finds out.

I had a faulty clock replaced on my 2014 F-Sport and just noticed today that the new one is acting up as well. Off by 20 minutes.

I have a 2016 GS and mine is controlled in the settings just like the 18 no issue either

So I just got the car back from maintenance and they tried to fix the issue. They reset everything and tested it for a while and it seemed to be working fine so they told me to watch it and if it did anything weird again to bring it in right away.... well, as soon as I was leaving the dealership it went wacko again and instead of 4:30, it marked 3:15 lol... so I just turn right back and showed them (good thing it happened right there). They are going to order a new clock and replace it. This is one reason why I like Lexus so much, their customer service is A+. They helped me out and treat you good, the issue is getting taken care of and everything went smooth. Tomorrow I have to take in my RCF for the recall and they'll let me know when the part will get here and when to make an appointment for it. Only bad thing is having to go there, especially now that I've been feeling like crap the last few days but the good thing is I always can get a loaner and not waste a day or anything without a car and the dealer is about 10 blocks from my house

Anybody know where I can find a good replacement clock for my 2013 F-Sport? I'm on my second clock from Lexus and its off by two hours.
