If you have a valet key that is programmed to the vehicle YES you can use
it. If you have a plain metal key that says VALET on it. it is only used to
open the vehicle. I have no idea what key you have, Try it! if the vehicle
starts and dies...the key is not programmed for the vehicle. If the vehicle
starts and runs then go to the dealer and have a regular key cut. If the
vehicle has an alarm in it all you need to do is unlock the door with the
key and start it. Sorry for the confusion
