I know theres an faq on this but I've put the previous codes and plenty more into one easy to read table. It includes when the paint was used too
I hope it works. . .

EDIT

Here's a link to a german polo info site - there are some useful colour codes on there I couldn't find on ETKA. It covers mk2s and mk3s

BTW - use the ones that are newer if youve got a newer car, its brings up 2 different ones for Alpine white, L90B and L90E

could be different, but might not be

mines LD7U which is listed as offroadgrey met but it says from year 2002- ---- and mines only 1999. whats going on?

Where do you find the code on a mk2 saloon

Boot probably, just above the tyre well, under the boot seal, either that or the service book if you've got it

:)

No service book

and no luck. it a silver colour could just ask if vw know

Good find mate, been trying to find out the colour of my car for ages, halfords got it wrong

Cheers fella

Yep..Halfords make a mess of my paint too..got them to mix some LC6V..think Stevie Wonder was on the paint counter that day...I've now got a patchwork polo!!doh..never again!!!

Any one no the code for polo 6n n reg 1995 black, halfords say its diamond black but the codes just say black

So where abouts are the paint codes on a mk5 Polo? Been dieing to paint some stuff but cant find the damn code. Its blue.

EDIT: Finally found where my paint code is, happened upon it when I was taking out my spare wheel. LA5C - Surf Blue.

Ok my 6n is silver its LB7Z or so i think

no luck on http://www.paintscratch.com/ no polo has been painted in LB7Z lol??

I've got 2 codes in my service book. L995 is stamped in and then I've got LD(G or 6 cant make it out)T in handwriting.

cant find either of them can anyone help?? car is a 95 6n in light green.

LN6T in halfords says electric green, also says it has to be mixed so I'm guessing the colour was an optional extra.
