I have a 2016 Wolfsberg, purchased new in early 2017. The Analog clock in the center console, between air vents stopped working 2 years. The car battery died a few weeks ago, 5 years old. When replaced the clock was working again, any idea how this is possible.

That was my feeling.
VW wanted to charge me $600 to test it. Decided it was not worth that.

I doubt it had anything to do with battery. There would have been lots of volts once the alternator started charging. I would say a electronic glitch where a reset ( disconnect battery for a min) might have cured it.
