Hahahahahaha. Sorry, I'm not laughing at your misfortune but just what you said.

Anyway, how'd you lose it? Didn't you get 2 keys from the dealer?

We all received two keys but better have that one replaced before losing both and not being able to drive. Did anyone receive a platic/metal key that just unlock the door? That came with my Audi, G35, but didn't seem to get one with the G37.. Maybe they stopped doing that..

The valet key is in the Intelligent Key. Push the slider on the back of the Intelligent Key while pulling the key out from the top.

How would the valet start the car if all you gave them is the metal key and not the remote?

It's more of a way so that you can just get into the car incase you can't find your keyfobs. Its nothing for valet/driving.

Where did you get that price from? Are you getting the key, and the programming seperate? I spoke with Jason from Riverside and he was gonna get me the key for $50, but that doesn't include programing.

Where are you getting the key fob, and the programming done @?

I lost my first key, 1 month after owning my G! oooops

At the time I picked up my G37, another guy was picking up a 6MT one and he got that spare wallet key thing. Than I come on here and hear that it's been discontinued even for the 6MT. Weird.

Yeh I'm going to call my dealer and ask that they send me one and that it will be returned at the end of my lease.

The wallet key is only for the 6mt coupe (just in case you lock your keys in the car).. The G37 doesn't need it because if you lock your keys in the cars guess what. All you have to do is push the button on the door handle...

The door won't lock with the key in the car so that obviously isn't a solution..

You're not supposed to give them the valet key, you're supposed to give them the Intelligent Key. You lock the glove and trunk with the valet key.
