Default BACK IN TIME

Has anyone experianced thier clock going backwards. when i start the car the clock just goes backwards (time) after a minute or so it will stop obvoiusly the wrong time. It's quite annoying and pointless restting it to the right time as it will start all over again when i switch off.

V70 2003 d5

im not sure on wireing or anything like that if but if the clock is not computer controlled and has its own independent way of keeping time that might be bad but someone would need to look it up in the service book replacing it shouldnt be to hard try battery first...but i think the temp is comp controlled not positive bout this i can look into it more if batt dont fix it keep me informed...

Maybe the button for the clock/trip is going bad.

I agree with Tech that the button on the clock might be going bad or just stuck in a left-most position. Try jiggling it and rotating it both CW and CCW.
