Yea, it does, that's why you have a valet key.

Default for 04, they've changed the keys

On the 04, they now give you two regular keys (blank on one side, and w/a silver Nissan logo on the other). The valet is black and has Nissan in black on both sides.


My 02 Max was like zand02max's. The regular keys had black Nissan logos on both sides and the maroon one was the valet key.

Maybe the guy sucked like mine did at delivery (he was pissed that I actually wanted to read the entire purchase conctract). After reading about the valet key in the owners manual (yes, I read all of that too) I found it underneath the drivers seat with a cool little plastic covery thingy on the key teeth. I wonder if my dealer even knows that there is a a valet key for my car

And yea, 04 has 2 keys with silver logo and one with black, no maroon crap. But it's not like I'd ever let a valet drive my car anyway so it's just cool to have.
