Default clock loses time

Gooday. Does anyone else experience their clock losing time? I had it in my 08 XF (lost about 5 minutes a month). I cant be sure, but I think it also happened in the second (which ran off the hard drive). Now I'm getting it again in the XKR (non hard drive). It isn't a major issue, I adjust it when I notice it, but it is always a few minutes slow by the time I notice it. The service guys had come across the issue once before, but they couldn't fix it in the first XF. And I do make sure I set it properly - it gradually falls behind.

It's the physics...time slows down the faster you go. This has always been a problem with Jaguars, particularly with the R models.

That is really odd for digital clock.. I'm going to go check mine as the last time I set it was when I took deliver on 8/26

True. I'll have to keep it below warp 9.9. But it doesn't explain my first XF. With the 4.2 NA, it was lucky to reach warp 4

My 2008 XKR clock also loses time. That seems bizarre to me as the clock can only be adjusted via the nav screen. Why not link it to satellite time and call it done.
