Valet code issue
Forgot my 4 digit code for valet mode use.. placed my wallet in and entered a code.. forgot it . how can I get in now without knowing the code? Everyone I contacted don't have a clue. I pressed the I Forgot button and it was suppose to send a bypass code and didn't... anyone?

I believe you have to get the dealer to unlock it. As I recall it requires the dealer to reflash the system to clear your code. Lesson... always use four digits that mean something to you such as last four of your SSN.

Yes, dealer is the only option. They plug in tech tool and unlock it.

Good to know, and perhaps the reason I do use a four digit code that I find easy to remember.

Just got back from dealer took 5 minutes.. cleared the code. They didn't make a big deal out of it sent a tech out and took care of it. They (Dealership) knows very little about the Valet feature.. I asked them what phone is best supported, answer quote 'Who Knows'.
