Are you talking about the diagnostic trouble codes or the RPO codes which show the options on the car?

You need a Tech2 to remove the option for F45/F55 from the BCM.
If you are in SoCal, I can do this for you.

Well I am in California, From what I can tell you are in South Carolina. I would suggest posting in the regional section a help wanted to remove the F45/F55 option from your car.

Here are the steps to follow once you find a person with a Tech2:


1. Hook up Tech 2, turn car on, make sure module in the rear is plugged in. Do not unplug the rear module.
2. Use Tech 2 to delete the F45 option (F55 does not appear on the menu screen, use F45).
3. Save new configuration.
4. Do not turn car off, do not remove Tech 2. Go to the module in the rear of the car, unplug the grey connector (the widest one), leave any other plug(s) in. [leave the other 1 (F45) or 2 (F55) plugged in]
5. Turn off car, leave Tech 2 plugged in.
6. Remove remaining plugs from module in the rear of car. [never plug them back in again, if you do the F45 turns on automatically] (Recommend removing the module)
7. Turn car on to verify the "max speed 80 mph" is gone.
8. Unplug Tech 2.
