GTA 4 cheats: every phone number, cross-checked

GTA 4 cheats are phone numbers. In Grand Theft Auto IV you open Niko Bellic's in-game phone, call a number, and the effect fires on the spot. This page lists the GTA IV numbers that two cheat references print identically: GTABase and GamesRadar. Where they differ, we leave the entry out.

None of this tells you anything about Grand Theft Auto VI. Rockstar has published nothing about cheats in GTA VI, and VI Cheats has verified no GTA VI code. The current state of that question lives on our GTA 6 cheats status page.

How do you enter cheats in GTA IV?

GTABase describes the steps the same way for PC, PS3 and Xbox 360. Press Up on the d-pad, or Up on the keyboard on PC, to raise the phone. Press Up again to bring up the dial pad. Type the number and call it.

A "Cheat activated" message confirms it worked, according to GTABase. After the first use, the number is saved in a Cheats entry in the phone menu, so you can re-select it without dialling again. GTABase says the effects are one-time, so there is no cheat to deactivate.

GamesRadar adds a detail about the numbers themselves. Each one spells a word on the keypad letters. 362 is DOC, 486 is GUN, 267 is COP.

Earlier games in the series used button sequences, not a phone. That change has its own page: how phone cheats replaced button codes in GTA.

GTA IV health, weapons and wanted level numbers

These seven GTA IV numbers appear digit for digit on both GTABase and GamesRadar.

  • 362-555-0100 - restores health and armour (GamesRadar also lists a vehicle repair)
  • 482-555-0100 - health, armour and a weapon set
  • 486-555-0150 - the basic weapon set (knife, pistol, pump shotgun, micro SMG, assault rifle, combat sniper, Molotovs, RPG)
  • 486-555-0100 - the advanced weapon set (bat, combat pistol, combat shotgun, SMG, carbine, combat sniper, grenades, RPG)
  • 267-555-0100 - clears your wanted level
  • 267-555-0150 - adds one wanted star
  • 468-555-0100 - changes the weather

GTABase says the weather number cycles between eight weather types. Both sources describe the weapon sets with the same contents.

GTA IV vehicle spawn numbers

Nine GTA IV spawn numbers match across both sources. Cars come first.

  • 227-555-0142 - Cognoscenti
  • 227-555-0175 - Comet
  • 227-555-0100 - FIB Buffalo
  • 227-555-0168 - Super GT
  • 227-555-0147 - Turismo

Bikes, a helicopter and a boat round out the base GTA IV list.

  • 625-555-0100 - NRG-900
  • 625-555-0150 - Sanchez
  • 359-555-0100 - Annihilator
  • 938-555-0100 - Jetmax

There is no money number. GamesRadar states that GTA IV has no official cash cheat.

Do GTA 4 cheats disable achievements?

Some do, and only for that session. GTABase lists which GTA IV cheats block which Achievements and Trophies:

  • Health and armour: Cleaned the Mean Streets, Finish Him, One Man Army and Walk Free.
  • The weapon cheats: Cleaned the Mean Streets.
  • Remove wanted level: One Man Army and Walk Free.
  • The Annihilator and Buzzard helicopters: One Man Army and Walk Free.

GTABase marks no other codes as blocking achievements. A blocking cheat shows an on-screen prompt next to the confirmation. Quit and reload, and the block is gone. GTABase still recommends saving before you use any cheat, so a clean file is always there. GamesRadar gives similar advice: keep cheating on a separate save.

GTA V later used a broader rule. Rockstar Support says of GTA V that saving is allowed with cheats on, but achievements are temporarily disabled. Neither rule says anything about GTA VI. Our page on whether cheats will disable trophies in GTA 6 tracks what is and is not known there.

Episodes from Liberty City extra numbers

Cheats are entered the same way in the two GTA IV expansions, The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony, GTABase says, on Johnny's or Luis's phone. Each episode adds its own GTA IV codes, and both sources print the same digits.

The Lost and Damned (GTA IV episode):

  • 245-555-0125 - Double T
  • 245-555-0199 - Hakuchou
  • 245-555-0150 - Hexer
  • 245-555-0100 - Innovation
  • 826-555-0150 - Burrito
  • 826-555-0100 - Slamvan

The Ballad of Gay Tony (GTA IV episode), effects:

  • 276-555-2666 - explosive punches
  • 486-555-2526 - explosive sniper rounds
  • 359-555-7272 - parachute
  • 272-555-8265 - APC tank

The Ballad of Gay Tony (GTA IV episode), vehicles:

  • 227-555-9666 - Bullet GT
  • 625-555-0200 - Akuma
  • 625-555-3273 - Vader
  • 359-555-2899 - Buzzard
  • 938-555-0150 - Floater

GamesRadar notes that in The Ballad of Gay Tony, the advanced weapons number gives that episode's own weapon set in place of the original one.

Do GTA 4 cheat numbers work in GTA 6?

No source links them to GTA VI. These are GTA IV numbers, entered on a GTA IV phone. Rockstar has not said whether GTA VI will have cheats at all, or how they would be entered. Rockstar's Newswire post of November 6, 2025 set the release for November 19, 2026. Rockstar's GTA VI page lists it for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. Any list of "GTA 6 phone numbers" you find today does not come from Rockstar.

VI Cheats is an independent site. It is not affiliated with Rockstar Games or Take-Two Interactive.

Are GTA 4 cheats the same on PC, PS3 and Xbox 360?

Yes. GTABase says the dialling method is the same on PC, PS3, Xbox 360 and Xbox One, and it prints one list of numbers for Xbox 360, PS3 and PC.

How do you spawn a tank in GTA 4?

Only in The Ballad of Gay Tony. Dial 272-555-8265 on Luis's phone. Both GTABase and GamesRadar print that number, and GTABase names Luis's phone. The base GTA IV game has no tank number.

Is there a money cheat in GTA 4?

No. GamesRadar states that GTA IV has no official money cheat.

Can GTA 4 cheats ruin a save?

GamesRadar calls it unlikely that cheats break the game. It suggests a separate save file for cheating, and GTABase suggests saving before you use one. In GTA IV the achievement block ends when you reload.
