Jeez guys, lighten up on the guy.
He's simply making an observation as to why the system doesn't do it on it's own, not that he can't figure out how to do it.
Heck we've got "one touch" window switches as it seems we can't be bothered with holding a button for a few seconds. A freaking $500 option so that we can't be bothered with inserting a key or fob into a slot. CPU power is used for these conveniences. It's not that outrageous to wonder why the car can't make the adjustment on it's own.
I never thought about this really until this thread, and adjusting the time twice a year is not a big deal to me. Given all the silly things we all could easily do but have a computer do it for us, it's not that crazy to wonder why the time doesn't adjust on it's own.
Oh, and Dackelone, nice dig there on us US citizens.
OP the reason why the Germans don't have a cpu do this for you is bc they ASSUME the driver's of thier cars have some smarts. That is always not the case though - espcially in the American market.
I don't see a smiley. Should we ASSUME you meant to have one there?
