Every GTA 4 cheat code and phone number
By Gareth Linwood Fact-checked by Terrence Abiola Published
Grand Theft Auto IV dropped the button-combo cheats of earlier games, so every cheat is a phone number you dial on the in-game mobile. The same numbers work on PC, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Xbox Series X/S. This page lists all 17 base-game numbers (16 cheats plus the ZiT song-ID line) and the 14 codes exclusive to Episodes from Liberty City, with what each one does, which achievement it blocks and what to do when a code fails.
Key takeaways
- Open the phone, dial the number, call it and wait for the “Cheat Activated” message.
- All 17 base-game numbers also work in both episodes. The 14 episode-only codes work only in their own episode.
- Health, weapon and wanted-level cheats block some achievements and trophies, but only until you quit and reload.
- GTA IV has no money cheat, no plane cheat and no permanent god mode.
- The phone numbers still work in the 2020 Steam Complete Edition after Games for Windows Live was removed.

GTA 4 cheat codes: the full list
To use any cheat in GTA 4, open the phone, dial one of the numbers below and press call. The numbers are the same on every platform and every version. The table also shows which achievement each one blocks for that session.
The “Keypad letters” column spells each number on a standard phone keypad (D-O-C is 3-6-2, for example). These are memory aids, not official names. Achievement notes come from the long-running fan guides gta4.net and GTABase. The two sometimes disagree, so read that column as the widely reported list, not a statement from Rockstar Games.
GTA 4 cheat codes: base game (all platforms)
| Cheat | Phone number | Keypad letters | Effect | Blocks achievement/trophy (session only) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Health, armour and ammo | 482-555-0100 | GTA-555-0100 | Full health and armour plus ammo; guides report it also repairs your current vehicle | Guides list Cleaned the Mean Streets, Finish Him, One Man Army, Walk Free |
| Health and armour | 362-555-0100 | DOC-555-0100 | Restores health and armour | Finish Him (per gta4.net); some guides list the same four as above |
| Weapons (Advanced) | 486-555-0100 | GUN-555-0100 | Bat, grenades, Combat Pistol, Combat Shotgun, SMG, Carbine Rifle, Combat Sniper, RPG | Cleaned the Mean Streets |
| Weapons (Poor) | 486-555-0150 | GUN-555-0150 | Knife, Molotovs, Pistol, Pump Shotgun, Micro SMG, Assault Rifle, Combat Sniper, RPG | Cleaned the Mean Streets |
| Remove wanted level | 267-555-0100 | COP-555-0100 | Clears all wanted stars | Walk Free |
| Raise wanted level | 267-555-0150 | COP-555-0150 | Adds one wanted star | None widely reported |
| Change weather | 468-555-0100 | HOT-555-0100 | Cycles to the next of eight weather types | None |
| Song ID (ZiT) | 948-555-0100 | ZIT-555-0100 | Texts you the artist and title of the song on the radio | None (per StrategyWiki) |
| Spawn Annihilator | 359-555-0100 | FLY-555-0100 | Armed police helicopter | None |
| Spawn Jetmax | 938-555-0100 | WET-555-0100 | Speedboat (use near water) | None |
| Spawn NRG-900 | 625-555-0100 | None | Sport bike | None |
| Spawn Sanchez | 625-555-0150 | None | Dirt bike | None |
| Spawn FIB Buffalo | 227-555-0100 | CAR-555-0100 | Unmarked federal police car | None |
| Spawn Comet | 227-555-0175 | CAR-555-0175 | Sports car | None |
| Spawn Turismo | 227-555-0147 | CAR-555-0147 | Sports car | None |
| Spawn Cognoscenti | 227-555-0142 | CAR-555-0142 | Luxury sedan | None |
| Spawn Super GT | 227-555-0168 | CAR-555-0168 | Sports car | None |
Three prefixes cover most of the list: 227 (CAR) spawns cars, 486 (GUN) gives weapons and 267 (COP) controls the police. Once you know the prefix, you only need to remember the last four digits.
ZiT is a special case. Strictly speaking it’s an in-game service, not a cheat. It turns up on most cheat lists because you dial it the same way. It is saved as a normal phone contact rather than in the phone’s cheats list, and it never touches achievements.
How to enter GTA 4 cheats on PC, PS3 and Xbox

You enter cheats by dialling them as ordinary phone calls. There is no cheat menu, no button sequence and no console to type into. The phone is the only official way to cheat in Grand Theft Auto IV, Grand Theft Auto IV: The Complete Edition and Episodes from Liberty City.
What you need before you start:
- A loaded single-player save. Cheats do nothing in multiplayer, and the PC Complete Edition no longer has multiplayer anyway.
- Control of your character: no cutscene, phone call or swimming.
- A fresh manual save if you care about achievements or trophies.
- For episode-only codes, the right episode loaded: The Lost and Damned for Johnny Klebitz, The Ballad of Gay Tony for Luis Lopez.
Quick steps: enter a GTA 4 cheat
- Save your game manually at a safehouse.
- Press Up on the D-pad (console) or the Up arrow key (PC) to bring out the phone.
- Press Up again or open the dial pad.
- Type the full 10-digit number, including 555.
- Press call and wait for the “Cheat Activated” message.
- Put the phone away. Your car, weapons or health are ready straight away.
Console (PS3, Xbox 360, Xbox Series X/S)
On PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 you move around the keypad with the D-pad or left stick and confirm each digit with the select button (X on PS3, A on Xbox). Then press the call button shown on screen. On Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S the game runs as the Xbox 360 version through backward compatibility, so the controls and numbers are the same as on the 360, from disc or digital.
If you type a wrong digit, the cancel button deletes it one digit at a time. You don’t have to close the phone and start over.
PC Complete Edition (Steam / Rockstar Games Launcher)
On PC, the Up arrow opens the phone. Then you can type the digits on the keyboard’s number keys instead of moving across the keypad, which makes PC the fastest platform for entering codes. A controller works the same way as on console.
Vandal’s PC guide confirms the phone numbers still work in the current Complete Edition on Steam and the Rockstar Games Launcher. The 2020 changes to the PC version touched online features, not the single-player cheat system.
Expected result: a “Cheat Activated” notice appears. Health and weapon cheats work immediately, vehicles appear next to your character and the weather changes within a second or two.
Agent's note
Numbers you have dialled stay saved on the phone. In a long rampage, calling a stored cheat is faster than typing 10 digits mid-gunfight.
Health, armour and weapons cheats
GTA 4 has two health cheats and two weapon cheats. 482-555-0100 is the better health code: it restores health and armour and, according to guides, also tops up ammo and fixes your current vehicle. 362-555-0100 restores health and armour only. Neither one gives you permanent invincibility.
Health and armour
Both codes give a full refill at the moment you call and nothing after that. There is no equivalent of the god-mode codes some players remember from San Andreas. If you come from GTA San Andreas cheats, expect to redial during a heavy firefight instead of switching on a permanent effect.
Here is how they compare in practice. Say you are in a four-star chase in a damaged Comet with your health in the red. Dialling 482-555-0100 gives full health and armour, refills your ammo and, per guides, repairs the car you are sitting in, all in one call. 362-555-0100 fixes only you. In a vehicle or mid-shootout, use 482. The 362 code only makes sense if you want to keep your current ammo counts, which almost never matters.
Use 482, not 362, mid-chase
Guides report that 482-555-0100 also refills ammo and repairs your current car. That makes it the one health code worth memorising for driving under fire.
Weapons: Advanced vs Poor loadouts
The two weapon codes give two fixed sets. Both include the Combat Sniper and the RPG, and the Advanced set (486-555-0100) is stronger in almost every other slot.
| Slot | Advanced (486-555-0100) | Poor (486-555-0150) |
|---|---|---|
| Melee | Baseball Bat | Knife |
| Thrown | Grenades | Molotov cocktails |
| Handgun | Combat Pistol | Pistol |
| Shotgun | Combat Shotgun | Pump Shotgun |
| SMG | SMG | Micro SMG |
| Rifle | Carbine Rifle | Assault Rifle |
| Sniper | Combat Sniper | Combat Sniper |
| Heavy | RPG | RPG |
The Poor set has its uses. Molotovs beat grenades for setting groups of cars on fire, and some players prefer how the Assault Rifle handles. For general mayhem, though, Advanced wins, and the Combat Shotgun alone makes it the default pick. Both codes block Cleaned the Mean Streets for the session. That is the achievement for catching criminals through the police computer.
In The Ballad of Gay Tony the Advanced number gives Luis the episode’s own loadout instead of Niko’s, according to the fan wiki gta.wiki.
Vehicle spawn cheats: cars, bikes, helicopters, boats

The base game has nine vehicle spawn codes: five cars, two bikes, one helicopter and one boat. The episodes add 11 more: six in The Lost and Damned and five in The Ballad of Gay Tony. The table groups all 20 by type and shows where each one works.
Vehicle cheats by type
| Type | Vehicle | Number | Game |
|---|---|---|---|
| Car | Comet | 227-555-0175 | GTA IV and both episodes |
| Car | Turismo | 227-555-0147 | GTA IV and both episodes |
| Car | Super GT | 227-555-0168 | GTA IV and both episodes |
| Car | Cognoscenti | 227-555-0142 | GTA IV and both episodes |
| Car | FIB Buffalo | 227-555-0100 | GTA IV and both episodes |
| Car | Bullet GT | 227-555-9666 | The Ballad of Gay Tony only |
| Van | Burrito | 826-555-0150 | The Lost and Damned only |
| Van/truck | Slamvan | 826-555-0100 | The Lost and Damned only |
| Bike | NRG-900 | 625-555-0100 | GTA IV and both episodes |
| Bike | Sanchez | 625-555-0150 | GTA IV and both episodes |
| Bike | Innovation | 245-555-0100 | The Lost and Damned only |
| Bike | Double T Custom | 245-555-0125 | The Lost and Damned only |
| Bike | Hexer | 245-555-0150 | The Lost and Damned only |
| Bike | Hakuchou Custom | 245-555-0199 | The Lost and Damned only |
| Bike | Vader | 625-555-3273 | The Ballad of Gay Tony only |
| Helicopter | Annihilator | 359-555-0100 | GTA IV and both episodes |
| Helicopter | Buzzard | 359-555-2899 | The Ballad of Gay Tony only |
| Boat | Jetmax | 938-555-0100 | GTA IV and both episodes |
| Boat | Floater | 938-555-0150 | The Ballad of Gay Tony only |
| Armoured vehicle | APC | 272-555-8265 | The Ballad of Gay Tony only |
Cars
The four sports cars share the 227-555-01xx pattern, and the last two digits pick the model: 75 Comet, 47 Turismo, 68 Super GT, 42 Cognoscenti. The FIB Buffalo (0100) is the odd one out: an unmarked federal car that is heavy, fast and has a siren. For crossing Liberty City quickly, the Turismo and Super GT are the usual picks. The Cognoscenti is a big luxury sedan built for weight, not speed. In The Ballad of Gay Tony, the Bullet GT (227-555-9666, CAR-555-ZOOM) beats all of them.
Bikes
Which bike code to use depends on what you want to ride. In the base game, 625-555-0100 spawns the NRG-900, a sport bike made for highways and bridges. 625-555-0150 spawns the Sanchez, a dirt bike that copes with stairs, parks and the rough ground around Alderney.
The Lost and Damned has the deepest bike list of any GTA IV-era game. All four of its bike codes use the 245 (BIK) prefix:
- 245-555-0100: Innovation, a custom chopper.
- 245-555-0125: Double T Custom, a sport bike.
- 245-555-0150: Hexer, the chopper that fits Johnny Klebitz’s club.
- 245-555-0199: Hakuchou Custom, a fast sport bike.
The Ballad of Gay Tony adds the Vader sport bike on 625-555-3273, the same 625 prefix as the base-game bikes.
Helicopters and boats
359-555-0100 drops an Annihilator next to you. It is the armed police helicopter with mounted guns and the only flying vehicle you can spawn in Niko’s story. Spawn it somewhere open, like a park or a wide road, because tight streets can trap the rotors. In The Ballad of Gay Tony, 359-555-2899 gives you the smaller Buzzard instead.
The Jetmax (938-555-0100) is a fast speedboat, and The Ballad of Gay Tony adds the Floater on 938-555-0150. Dial either one at the waterfront. If you spawn a boat far from water, you are left with a boat on land.
If you would rather earn the Annihilator than spawn it, killing all 200 Flying Rats (the game’s pigeons) puts one on the helipad of the MeTV building in Star Junction, Algonquin, according to the fan wikis WikiGTA and Grand Theft Wiki.
Is there a tank cheat in GTA 4?
No. Base GTA IV has no tank and no tank cheat. The closest thing is the APC in The Ballad of Gay Tony, spawned with 272-555-8265 (APC-555-TANK on the keypad). It is an armoured personnel carrier with a turret, and it only spawns while you play as Luis Lopez.
Wanted level and weather cheats
267-555-0100 clears your wanted level and 267-555-0150 raises it by one star. 468-555-0100 changes the weather, moving through eight types one call at a time.
The remove code is the one that costs an achievement. gta4.net lists it as blocking Walk Free, which asks you to lose a four-star wanted level by outrunning the police. Clearing your stars with a phone call is exactly what that achievement is meant to stop. If you are going for Walk Free, don’t dial 267-555-0100 in that session.
The raise code is mostly for fun or practice. Dial it four times to start a four-star chase whenever you want, which lets you practise escapes before a real Walk Free attempt. For a specific weather type, keep calling 468-555-0100 until it comes up. With eight types in the cycle, that can take up to seven calls.
Episodes from Liberty City cheats (The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony)
Episodes from Liberty City adds 14 cheats of its own: six in The Lost and Damned and eight in The Ballad of Gay Tony. All 17 base-game numbers also work in both episodes, so Johnny and Luis can use the health, weapon, wanted-level, weather and vehicle codes too.
Episodes from Liberty City exclusive cheats
| Episode | Cheat | Phone number | Keypad letters | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| The Lost and Damned | Innovation | 245-555-0100 | BIK-555-0100 | Spawns a custom chopper |
| The Lost and Damned | Double T Custom | 245-555-0125 | BIK-555-0125 | Spawns a sport bike |
| The Lost and Damned | Hexer | 245-555-0150 | BIK-555-0150 | Spawns the gang’s chopper bike |
| The Lost and Damned | Hakuchou Custom | 245-555-0199 | BIK-555-0199 | Spawns a sport bike |
| The Lost and Damned | Burrito | 826-555-0150 | VAN-555-0150 | Spawns a Burrito van |
| The Lost and Damned | Slamvan | 826-555-0100 | VAN-555-0100 | Spawns a Slamvan |
| The Ballad of Gay Tony | Bullet GT | 227-555-9666 | CAR-555-ZOOM | Spawns the Bullet GT supercar |
| The Ballad of Gay Tony | APC | 272-555-8265 | APC-555-TANK | Spawns an armoured personnel carrier |
| The Ballad of Gay Tony | Buzzard | 359-555-2899 | FLY-555-BUZZ | Spawns an armed light helicopter |
| The Ballad of Gay Tony | Vader | 625-555-3273 | MBK-555-FARE | Spawns a sport bike |
| The Ballad of Gay Tony | Floater | 938-555-0150 | WET-555-0150 | Spawns a boat |
| The Ballad of Gay Tony | Parachute | 359-555-7272 | FLY-555-PARA | Gives you a parachute |
| The Ballad of Gay Tony | Exploding sniper rounds | 486-555-2526 | GUN-555-BLAM | Sniper rounds explode on impact |
| The Ballad of Gay Tony | Super punch | 276-555-2666 | BRO-555-BOOM | Punches explode on impact |
The Lost and Damned
All six Lost and Damned codes are vehicles, and they fit the biker setting: four bikes on the BIK prefix for riding with the club, and two vans for hauling. If you want a cruiser, pick the Hexer or Innovation. For speed, pick the Hakuchou Custom or Double T Custom.
The Ballad of Gay Tony
The Ballad of Gay Tony has the strongest codes of the GTA IV era, and it is the only episode with combat cheats of its own. The Buzzard (359-555-2899) is a small, quick attack helicopter that many players prefer to the Annihilator. It pairs well with the parachute code (359-555-7272): fly up high, jump out and glide over Liberty City. Exploding sniper rounds (486-555-2526) make the Advanced Sniper Rifle fire explosive rounds, which is handy for clearing rooftops and vehicles. Super punch (276-555-2666) does the same for your fists.
Load the right episode first
The Buzzard, APC, Vader, Floater, Hexer and other episode codes do nothing in Niko’s story, and Lost and Damned codes don’t work in Gay Tony either. Load the right episode from the menu before you dial.
Do cheats disable achievements or trophies in GTA 4?
Yes, but only some achievements, and only for the current session. Health cheats, weapon cheats and wanted-level removal block specific achievements tied to combat and police chases. Vehicle, weather and song-ID codes block nothing. Quit to the menu and load a save, and the block is gone.
Players often worry that cheating ruins the whole save. It doesn’t. GTA IV doesn’t permanently flag a save as cheated the way some games do. So the routine is simple: save, cheat, then reload that clean save when you want to go back to achievement hunting.
| Cheat | Achievements reported as blocked |
|---|---|
| Health and armour (482 / 362) | Finish Him; some guides add Cleaned the Mean Streets, One Man Army, Walk Free |
| Weapons (486-555-0100 / 0150) | Cleaned the Mean Streets |
| Remove wanted level (267-555-0100) | Walk Free |
| Raise wanted level, weather, ZiT, all vehicle spawns | None widely reported |
Another common question: the achievement was supposed to be blocked, but it unlocked anyway, why? The block lists come from fan guides, not from Rockstar, and they disagree. gta4.net names only Finish Him for the health cheat, while other guides name four achievements. Plan around the longer list and save first.
On PC, the Steam Complete Edition has 55 achievements according to Vandal’s achievement guide: 40 for Grand Theft Auto IV, 5 for The Lost and Damned and 10 for The Ballad of Gay Tony. On console, the base game and the episodes have separate Xbox achievement and PS3 trophy lists.
Heads up
Health, weapon and wanted-removal cheats block related achievements and trophies until you quit. Save manually before dialling, and reload that save before you go for Walk Free, One Man Army, Finish Him or Cleaned the Mean Streets.
Cheats that don’t exist in GTA 4
GTA IV has no money cheat, no plane spawn, no permanent god mode and no infinite-ammo toggle. Any site that lists a phone number for one of these is wrong. GTABoom’s cheat page confirms that the money and plane cheats don’t exist.
No money cheat. There’s no official way to get infinite money. Cash comes from story missions, side jobs and activities, and by the middle of the story most players have more than Liberty City gives them to spend it on. GTA Online money methods are a separate topic, and none of them is a phone number.
No planes. Liberty City has no flyable planes, only helicopters. The planes over Francis International Airport are scenery. The Annihilator and, in The Ballad of Gay Tony, the Buzzard are as close as you get.
No god mode. Redialling 482-555-0100 is the closest thing. GTA 5 cheat codes brought invincibility back, but only for five minutes at a time.
What to use instead. The official alternatives are the friend and girlfriend abilities below, which work like built-in perks. Third-party PC trainers and mod menus are unofficial downloads that can carry malware, and this guide doesn’t point to any of them.
Do GTA 4 cheats still work in 2026?
Yes. Every phone cheat works on every version you can still play: the PC Complete Edition, PS3, Xbox 360, and Xbox One and Series X/S through backward compatibility. Platform changes over the years have affected online features, music and performance, not the cheat system.
Where GTA 4 cheats work in 2026
| Platform/version | Cheats work? | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| PC Complete Edition (Steam / Rockstar Games Launcher) | Yes | No Games for Windows Live, multiplayer or leaderboards |
| PlayStation 3 | Yes | Original version; base game and episodes have separate trophy lists |
| Xbox 360 | Yes | Original version |
| Xbox Series X/S | Yes | Xbox 360 version via backward compatibility, reported at 60fps |
| Xbox One | Yes | Same Xbox 360 backward-compatible version |
| PS4 / PS5 | Not available | No native or backward-compatible release |
PC Complete Edition
Yes, the phone cheats still work in the Steam Complete Edition after the GFWL removal. Rockstar Support explains that GTA IV was pulled from Steam in January 2020 because it depended on Games for Windows Live, Microsoft’s retired PC service. It came back on March 19, 2020 as Grand theft Auto IV: The Complete Edition, with Episodes from Liberty City included and no GFWL, multiplayer or leaderboards. Gamepressure reported that three radio stations were also cut for music licensing reasons. Single-player cheats still work the same way, and some of them still block certain achievements for the session.
Xbox Series X/S and PS3
Rockstar Games lists GTA IV among its Xbox 360 titles that are backward compatible on Xbox Series X/S, and Digital Foundry’s 2020 tests found it running at 60fps there. As of November 2026, no current-gen port or remaster has been announced, so the Series X/S version is the best way to play on console. Every code on this page works there.
Cheats not working? Fixes
When a GTA 4 cheat fails, the cause is almost always one of five things: a misdialled number, an episode code used in the wrong game, a moment when the phone isn’t available, no room to spawn a vehicle, or a misunderstanding about achievement blocks.
- Check every digit. Every code is 10 digits with 555 in the middle. Mixing up 0150 and 0100 is the most common mistake, and instead of an error it gives you the wrong bike, van or weapon set. If no “Cheat Activated” message appears, the number was wrong.
- Match the code to the game. The Buzzard, APC, Bullet GT, Vader, Floater, parachute, exploding rounds and super punch only work in The Ballad of Gay Tony. The Innovation, Double T Custom, Hexer, Hakuchou Custom, Burrito and Slamvan only work in The Lost and Damned.
- Wait until you can use the phone. The phone is unavailable during cutscenes, while swimming and in some scripted mission moments. Get back on dry land with full control, then dial.
- Give vehicles room. Spawned vehicles need clear space next to you. In a narrow alley, move into the open before you call. Boats need open water nearby.
- Reload for achievements. Quit to the main menu and load a save made before you cheated. Saving after the cheat and reloading that save doesn’t clear the block.
Niko’s girlfriends and their perks
Niko can date two story girlfriends and three optional ones he meets online. Only the three online girlfriends give abilities, and those abilities are the closest thing GTA IV has to legitimate, cheat-free shortcuts.
| Girlfriend | How you meet her | Ability (once she likes you enough) |
|---|---|---|
| Michelle | Story missions | None |
| Kate McReary | Story missions | None |
| Kiki Jenkins | Love-meet dating site (LawChick) | Call her to lower your wanted level |
| Carmen Ortiz | Love-meet dating site (SoBoHoe) | Call her to restore some health |
| Alex Chilton | Craplist (LiberatedWoman) | Discount at clothing stores; StrategyWiki lists 50% |
How to get a girlfriend in GTA 4
You get an online girlfriend by answering her profile in an internet café, taking her on dates until her relationship status reaches about 80%, and then calling her for the perk.
- Play Roman’s mission “Logging On” to unlock the TW@ internet cafés and Niko’s email, then finish Brucie’s “Out of the Closet”, which opens the dating sites.
- At a TW@ café, find LawChick or SoBoHoe on Love-meet, or LiberatedWoman on Craplist, and send a reply.
- Wait about 12 to 24 in-game hours for her email, which sets up the first date.
- Take her out, choose activities she enjoys and drop her home on time. After a few good dates, “try your luck” at her door.
- Keep calling her and dating her until the ability unlocks.
Guides also warn that if Niko sees other women while dating Kiki, she can start stalking him.
Friends add more perks: Little Jacob sells guns from his car, Brucie offers helicopter rides, Roman sends taxis, Dwayne sends backup and Packie makes car bombs. Together with Carmen and Kiki, they cover most of what the health and wanted-level cheats do, and they don’t block any achievements.
Did you know?
According to StrategyWiki, calling ZiT on 948-555-0100 to identify a radio song does not disable achievements. That makes it the one number on cheat lists you can dial freely during an achievement run.
FAQ
Can you use cheat codes in GTA 4?
