DST / Auto clock adjust NOT intuitive
Glad to see this topic come up. I have a 2015 RX 350 F Sport and was quite confused by the clock settings. The owners manual states to check the Navigation System Owner's Manual if you have nav so, I did. It tells you to turn on or off DST using the icons shown and to turn on or off the Automatic Clock adjust using the icons... and that's it! WTF!!! Am I the only person that would interpret this to mean that if the DST is set to "ON" and/or if the Auto Clock adjust is set to "ON" that I don't have to go back into the general settings to reset my clock every six months??? Maybe a bit more detail regarding what these particular clock features are and how they function would be more helpful.
As a side note, I sure wish I hadn't purchased a new Nissan Murano LX for my wife AFTER purchasing the RX. Many more user-friendly features, better display with sharper, better graphics, and... well, let's just say she loves to remind me how many more features she has that I don't, at $12,000 less for the car! Not that I'm not loving my new Lexus but it sure doesn't seem to have some of the luxury finishes and features I'd expect for the money...

Gonzo - I agree. I'm very impressed with the electronic bells, whistles and voice recognition in my neighbor's newer Ford Escape.

Does anyone know what the automatic clock setting does? It doesn't change the time for day light savings on my car.

clock did not change for daylight savings time
My lexus rx350 with navigation clock did not change with daylight savings time. All general settings for the clock are correct.
time zone: eastern
daylight savings time: on
auto adjust by gps: on
Can anyone offer a solution other that change manually?
Thanks,

The car is not connected to the net, hence no way it knows when the savings time change. In the near future, when all cars are connected, expect this to be standard. All of my weather satellite clocks change the time correspondingly.

Clock menu didn't say "auto adjust by GPS," did it?

I believe the clock time signal is received via the Sat radio, but since that is not really location enabled beyond being somewhere on this side of the planet, and DST rules are subject to change, you've been left on your own to change the setting twice a year. Some cars with built in cellular service, like with OnStar, can pluck the correct time and time zone right out of thin air. But that's spooky dark magic, and we shall not mention that again.

I have the identical issue on my 2015 RX350 w/nav. The 3 settings described by the OP are the only options that I can find. I have changed each of them and saved the settings but the time never changes.

can't adjust time
auto-adjust has never worked for daylight savings time
i've manually adjusted DST for nearly a decade w/o issue
have had no computer updates in several years
no longer able to adjust time
if i disable auto-adjust, disable DST, or change time zone
the modifications initially work until i exit the screen & they then revert back
any hey-try-this thoughts ?
thanks
