X350 Valet unlocking
I have accidently pressed the valet button. I have read the manual and posts here to unlock but still cannot open the boot or glove box. It happened once before to me but I cannot remember how I unlocked ti.
I have tried opening the boot with the key but no luck.
Hi Bob,
Is there any chance that the key you are using is a Valet key? I think the valet key (I don't have one) is missing the pointed tip.
The mechanical boot lock is often sticky through lack of use. Try some WD-40 or similar in the keyhole, then try to exercise the key through full range of movement.
Also, try pushing down on the boot lid as you turn the key.
I agree with the other posters, using the fob to lock and unlock the doors should cancel valet mode.

I have eventually fixed my problem. I pulled apart my key fob to check the battery and replaced it with a new one. Now I inserted the key into the boot lock and pressed the button on the boot at the same time and it unlocked.
