I don't know my Audi paint codes, but my car needs a touch up?

All Audi models have a sticker which features its unique colour code. On most models, this sticker can either be found in the boot, under the boot lid, under the mat, or in the spare wheel well. On the sticker, you should see a 2- to 4- character alphanumeric code — this is your colour code. Alternatively, you can look up your Audi colour code by registration number. Just type your reg into the search bar, and we’ll find the Audi paint codes that offer the ideal match.

I’ve found a small chip on my Audi. Which Chipex™ touch up paint kit do I need?

For minor areas of damage, we recommend the Chipex™ Lite kit. This kit includes all the products and accessories for our three-step system and enough paint to cover 12 areas of damage, such as stone chips. Start by applying the Audi touch up paint with the brush provided, blend with the blending solution, and polish if necessary for the perfect repair. There’s minimal waste, and you won’t need to buy primer or clear coat to achieve fantastic results.

How do I remove scratches on my Audi?

You won’t believe how easy it is to remove scratches on your Audi with our touch up paint kits. We recommend Chipex™ Plus for medium-to-large scratches. Our medium kit contains enough Audi touch up paint, blending solution and polish to deal with 24 imperfections. For minor scratches, try buffing them away with our high-quality scratch remover. Just follow the detailed instructions for applying the touch up paint and blending solution. Don’t worry if you make a mistake — it can be blended away while the paint’s still wet. Then add a coat of polish for pearl and metallic finishes, and watch your scratches disappear.

Which Audi touch up paint is best for road rash?

There’s nothing more frustrating than finding an area of road rash on your prized Audi. Fortunately, there’s no need to book in for an expensive respray. Our Chipex™ Pro kit has all the supplies you need to handle areas of extensive damage. What’s more, it has a longer shelf life than our other kits for additional emergency touch ups. If the damage penetrates the substrate, we recommend using a filler to improve paint adhesion. Then, slowly build up the paint layers until they reach the level of the original paintwork. For the best results, let the paint dry thoroughly between coats.

Do I need to use a clear coat with my Audi touch up paint?

Chipex™ UK’s Audi touch up paint is a custom mixed, all-in-one formulation. In most cases, you won’t need a primer, and we include a patented lacquer that protects your vehicle against rust and corrosion.

Is Audi touch up paint difficult to use?

Not at all; in fact, it’s so simple to use and get professional-grade results that even a newbie could do it. We’ve devised a stress-free three-step system that makes it easy to get seamless results that blend invisibly with your original paintwork.

Help, I’ve found a scratch on my brand new Audi. Can I use Chipex™ UK touch up paint?

About the Audi Q5

The Audi Q5 is Audi’s best-selling SUV and one of the most popular premium mid-size crossovers in the UK, produced since 2008 and now in its second generation. Available in standard and Sportback body styles across petrol, diesel, mild hybrid, and plug-in hybrid (Q5 TFSI e) powertrains, the Q5 is a family SUV that combines Audi’s premium interior quality with quattro all-wheel drive performance.

The Q5’s elevated ride height and regular use on varied road surfaces – including rural roads and gravel driveways – makes lower sill and front bumper stone chip damage a common occurrence. Chipex stocks colour-matched touch up paint for every UK-market Q5 shade from the original 8R through to the current FY.

Audi Q5 Generations and Paint Code Location

The Audi Q5 has run across two main generations:

8R (2008–2017) · FY (2017–present)

Your Audi Q5 paint code is a four-character alphanumeric code. On FY models, the sticker is most commonly in the spare wheel well under the boot floor – lift the removable panel to access it. On 8R models, check the spare wheel well or the driver’s door jamb.

Codes often carry an LZ or LY prefix – use the four main characters when searching. If uncertain, entering your registration number in the search tool above is the most reliable method.

Common Audi Q5 Paint Issues

Lower sill chips and front bumper stone chips are the most frequent issues – the Q5’s ride height exposes the lower body to road debris on all road types.

Mythos Black (LY9B) is the most popular Q5 colour on the Chipex platform and requires careful thin-coat application. Glacier White (LY9C) is the most forgiving solid finish to repair on the Q5 range. Daytona Grey (LZ7S) is a popular pearl finish on the FY requiring 2 thin coats. Manhattan Grey (LY7M) and Navarra Blue (LX5S) are popular FY metallic shades.
