iDrive 8 Cant Set Time **(FIXED!!!)**

***This has been FIXED! I thought I had fully finalized my BMW ID process but I guess I never got to the very very end lol. Said "partial" or something and when I went through steps again it finalized and allowed me to adjust the clock etc ***

Got my 2023 M3 Comp almost 2 weeks ago and I'm loving the car overall, but there are some minor annoyances that have crept in, first and foremost the inability to set the time lol

I've attached pics, but regardless if I have the car parked (in Park), off, or any other state, it doesn't matter, I can't get it to let me change the time (or click the tab for Auto settings). It always grays those fields out and I have yet to find a workaround...anyone?

**Also I have no idea why it keeps turning some of my pics sideways

Strange. I had noticed it on a 2024 X5 loaner I had last week and thought it was had to do something with the dealership limiting me from changing it but it appears it is a ID8 bug. I did try all settings and it wouldnt allow me to change it and so I gave up. Sorry

Try again in a day or two. I had this issue on my new G80, and a few days later it worked.

My wife swears we did it the 2nd day I had it and then it locked me out (before DST) and now it won't let me again lol...just so goofy, but I'll have dealership check into it when I visit too.

The loaner I had from my dealership had ID8 and the time setting was greyed out as well. I thought that was odd.
