Default Date Format on Display Keeps Changing

I'm in the US and we use "mm/dd/yyyy". The format stays about a week and reverts back to "dd/mm/yyyy" Can't understand why it keeps changing back. Anybody has this issue? Thanks Gary 2017 F-type R (IRR)

Better £s than ₽s.

This happens to me too. I've come to accept it as just a quirk of the car.

Default Update - Been Having Conversations w/ Service Advisor and Tech

They think the battery is weak. Only three months old. Not sure if the 2017 F-Type R has just one or two batteries (accessory battery), but they want to test the battery when the vehicle comes in for its re-call on the seat belt pre-tensioner.

We will eventually get all the steering wheels put on the correct side as well ;-)


It's all part of the 'Plan'...

Only one battery in the 2016+ MYs.


I, for one, have never checked the date on my F-Type (don't even know where to look). What's the point? Certainly wouldn't affect how I plan to drive.

To save going through all the Menu's, tap on the actual time on the screen and the Menu you need to adjust the time and date format etc will pop up.
