Re: 24 Hour Clock

I can't help it, but I find this funny. But, as long as it works for you, go for it!

Clock Reads 13:20

Clock Reads 23:59

Minus 2 from the 23 and you get 21. So that means 11:59pm

For me, it is an easy way to read a 24 hour clock.

Re: 24 Hour Clock

I did it on my 04 1.8t on the dash. In the clock setting functions, I think it is the "mode" function. I've been able to toggle from regular to military time.

So I wasn't imagining things!

I have a B6 & a B7 at the moment. My B6 has 24 hr clock - can't see any way to change to 12hr mode (looked in VCDS labels as well).

The B7 - it's a menu option to choose the time format. (I can also change units between imperial & metric - this required some VCDS coding to enable)

Re: 24 Hour Clock

as far as I know , the only way to get the 12 hr count is to change to mile or to the us settings, I got my car from the states , it was 12 hr but once I changed to canada settings the clock changed to 24 hr, hopfully I am wrong cause i would love to have it 12 hr

No need for VCDS, and no need to go to the menu in trip computer. I'm 100% sure I've done it before, just can't remember if it was a B6 or B7 or both.
