For anyone else who needs the complete code, here you go:
Functions.php
//Auto add and update Title field:

$new_title_date = new DateTime($new_title_date);
// set the title
$new_title = $new_title_field_name . ' - ' . $new_title_date->format('M j, Y');
$new_slug = sanitize_title( $new_title );
// create the update data holder
$your_post = array();
$your_post['ID'] = $post_id;
$your_post['post_title'] = $new_title;
$your_post['post_name'] = wp_strip_all_tags($new_slug);
//Unhook function to prevent infitnite looping
remove_action('acf/save_post', 'your_post_title_updater', 20);
// Update the post into the database
wp_update_post( $your_post );
//Rehook function to prevent infitnite looping

}
// run after ACF saves the $_POST['fields'] data
