Number of keys for an 08

972 Views 13 Replies 12 Participants Last post by  BLKingTitan
I purchased a 2008 CC LE in July and it came with 2 black keys. I also owned a 2004 CC LE and it came with 2 black keys and a red valet key. I brought this up with my dealer and he insisted that the 08's only come with 2 keys (no valet).

I was wondering how many keys other 08 owners received upon delivery. Does my dealer owe me a valet key?

I am going to have a remote start installed and was told that I needed to sacrifice a key.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. :cheers:

You should have received 2 fobs, 2 ignition keys and 1 valet key.
Not sure about the remote start and sacrificial key thing, but when I got my 08 CC LWB SE on 31 Oct 2007, they shorted me a key, I went back to the dealer and got my third key. Thanks to this forum, I am learning alot.
My 08' came w/ two ignition and one valet. The ignition keys have the chrome nissan logo, were as the valet key has a black logo.

I bought a valet key yesterday-- dealership told me that its now an accessory-- some come with them, some don't. I have to take it back to have it programmed, but need to bring all my keys in at once.

Why do you have to sacrifice a key for remote start? for the chip? if they chop it to reuse its chip, then anyone with an unchipped key could possibly start your car... right?


I was also told if I start the car with a key that isn't programmed for use in my truck, that it will die in about 15 seconds, but on the 3rd start, the vehicle would lock itself down and require a tow to the dealership...
I just picked up my 08 PRO-4X CC LWB yesterday and it came with 2 FOBs, 2 chrome logo keys, and 1 valet key.

Congrats on the new truck. BTW can you still check your trans fluid? Or is it a dealer only item.
giffordt, my '8.5 se cc came with 2 ign., 2 fobs, and a valet. Maybe they lost the key. They should cut/program another one for you.

Interesting that Energizer bought a higher end model LE and the dealer tells him that it doesn't include the valet and yet I bought an SE and it was included. I've had other dealers lose a key, especially on a vehicle that's been sitting on the lot for awhile, but they just programmed/cut another one for me when I took delivery.

I haven't even looked yet. I couldn't Tell you if my 04 had one...lol!
2 ignition keys (silver accents) with 2 fobs) + one black valet key. (like I'm gonna' let some valet drive my Titan! yeeaaaah right.)
Any and every new Titan thus far, XE, SE, Pro-4X, or LE. 04-08 should come with two master keys, and one valet key... They tried to tell me on my 08 that it only came with one master and the valet. I complained LOUDLY and called BS. a week later they mysteriously found my other Master key in a jar... Idiots! Oh well, they still haven't found the window sticker...
