Clock

I have a 2005 Roadster, the clock runs fast. Does anyone else have this problem? Also does anyone know how to fix it?

That's a new one!

Id assume there is a simple crystal-controlled oscillator on the circuit board of the instrument panel that gives the clock it's timebase. I do not THINK it is in the PTCM/ECU -so changing the instrument panel would do the job. Such detail is not in the service manual, their answer would be "let's change out the instrument panel" because replacing surface-mount components on a circuit board is NOT what auto shops are all about.
