I had a small clock symbol flash up on the left had main screen just under the speed limit sign. Never seen it before or since but wondered what it meant. Can’t find it listed anywhere.

I've not seen/noticed this before but were you on a road with average speed cameras installed?

No nothing like that. It was just off centre to the right of the left hand side display, the one with they tyre pressures etc

Isn't that the cruise control display?
I prefer normal cruise so that is what I specced. If I engage cruise control I get a little dial which goes green or grey if active or not when cruise is enabled on the button on the end of the stalk.
There is presumably a more complex display for adaptive or innodrive.

Anything like B shown here?:
Porsche Taycan Odd Clock Symbol Flashed Up 1742918544095-3i

If so it's something to do with roadsigns, though the manual's "additional signs" isn't very helpful.

I am sure I have seen that symbol while driving in Netherlands and Germany! I think this indicates a speed limit during certain hours, I think.

Did you travel on a road that has some adaptive speed limits like the M25?

No I was on a normal B road

I can confirm that sign means a temporary speed limit only active during certain time periods. If the clock is displayed, it means it is during that time period.

In the Netherlands, all motorways are restricted to 100 km/h between 0600 and 1900.

Why you would be seeing it on a UK B-road, however, is beyond me.

Is this sign J1.1 PCM specific?

Driving these motorways every day, but never seen this. Only the 100km/h sign, with 3 little ’dots’ underneath. These dots disappear when driving on motorways with permanent speed limits.

I think I can confirm @Throb's findings about time-specific speed limits. I believe I've seen the clock icon you describe when driving near schools that have reduced speed on days when school is in session.

Yep, get it most days. I’m just up the road from a primary (or junior as they call it down south) school. Normally a 30, but 20 during school start/ kicking out time.
