DST setting will take care of that if you're advancing the time. Time signal from sattelite is part of GPS.

[QUOTE=my4girls;10139946]didnt work on my 2017[/

Car has to be parked where it could receive the satellite signal. For an example all wall clocks are radio controlledm in my
house. I put them all on the South facing windows sill during the night. In the morning it all had correct time. My watch is Casio
triband radio wave model. In the morning it had correct time also. My Audi, Wife's MB, son's BMW all had correct time
in the morning.

Pretty sure the 2017 is NOT connected in any way to the GPS....have to set the clock manually, which is an arduous task that took about 10 seconds to complete on my way to the golf course on Sunday morning...
Of course to get to my club I had to head north, so you never know...

You can also do it from the... info center or whatever it's called between the gauges.

If the clock settings for the NX work the same way that they do for other Lexus models (and I'm guessing that they do), setting the clock to auto DST in the vehicle customization settings only applies to the vehicle's system clock. When DST starts and ends, you will still have to manually change the analog clock in the middle of the dash and the digital clock in the multi-information display in the center of the instrument cluster.

using the DST change feature does move the analog clock (I watched it go round on mine this weekend).

Absolutely, just did it yesterday road testing a 2018 that the dealer didn’t adjust or put it in « auto » mode. As soon as I pgm the auto mode , the analog clock went for a one hour spin by itself ! Interesting, looked like a scene (the clock tower) in the « Back to the Future » movie !
