Hello
I own a 2008 911 turbo. I bought it about two years ago and have never been able to figure out how to change the date on the radio. Does anyone know how to do that? I would appreciate any guidance.

Yes. I had the same issue. I assume the car has the Porsche navigation system and original head unit? You, from time to time have to update the navigation system by buying the discs from Porsche. If your car is like mine there is a unit in the frunk that looks like a big CD player. That’s where the disc goes. It seems like the only way to update the date (it made zero sense to me)I can’t assure you that those are even available. I pulled the trigger and had the new PCCM head unit installed that pretty much fixed every issue you might have with the head unit.
These cars are coming up on 20 yrs old the tech at this point is questionable. Hope it helps. Be awesome!
