M13KYF Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 and enjoy the forum If I remember. You get two keys and a service Key. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tangers Posted April 7, 2006 Author Share Posted April 7, 2006 Thanks Mike So I have 2 standard keys with buttons on. What does the service key look like? Is it a master (that is required to program more standard keys) or just a valet key that won't start the car? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M13KYF Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 Yes two with buttons. The third key is the same length but smaller plastic end with no buttons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lomoto Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 I,d check that the windows drop correctly when the doors open, and go up when shut...just a small thing but costly to correct ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tangers Posted April 7, 2006 Author Share Posted April 7, 2006 Cool will do, but it wouldn't it be a warranty job if it was broke? Added to list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HKSPWRDZ Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 Might want to ask the dealership to get a alignment done on the car, for your records incase you have feathering problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tangers Posted April 11, 2006 Author Share Posted April 11, 2006 Cheers guys. Defo plenty of that: Car has been taken in by the current owner for service and touch up by Nissan. Should be mint when I get it (eventually ). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hagar Posted April 13, 2006 Share Posted April 13, 2006 the valet key as you call it will start car (think it was mentioned) but I find it always sets the alarm off even if you opened the doors with it! Simply turn the ignition to 1 for it to turn off should you ever use it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
