How to change flight during connection?
 
I have IAH-MUC-IST-ADB. First leg was united and the rest is Turkish Airlines. When I am in Munich i realize i can get an earlier flight to istanbul saving 3 hours. I proceeded to Turkish airline counter and talked to the clerk. He said he can not change the ticket to an earlier time because ticket was given by united and he can not overwrite

What could I do to make this happen?

Nothing. TK could put you on the earlier flight if they wanted to. UA no longer has control of that coupon.

What would you do if you were in my shoes?

ask again. Or take the flights as they were booked. TK is not obligated to put you on an earlier flight, but they certainly could if they wanted to. Doesn't help it is a 016 ticket and the agent may not know how to do that on non-TK ticket stock.
