How do I find my Volkswagen paint code?

Your VW paint code is typically on a sticker located in the boot, engine bay, or driver’s door jamb. It’s usually a combination of letters and numbers (e.g., LC9X, LA7W). You can also use your registration number to find it instantly using our paint search tool.

Which Chipex™ UK kit should I order?

Choose between our Lite, Plus, and Pro kits depending on the size of the area to repair — from small chips to larger scrapes.Selecting the right kit ensures you have the correct amount of paint and tools to complete your repair efficiently at home.

For shallow chips and light scratches, primer isn’t necessary. For deeper damage exposing bare metal, apply primer first for the best adhesion.

How reliable is the Chipex™ Volkswagen paint system?

Very. It’s an all-in-one, easy-to-use system designed to deliver professional, seamless, and durable results for your Volkswagen’s paintwork.

How long will the repair last?

With proper application and curing, your repair will blend perfectly with the surrounding paint and provide protection from rust and corrosion for years.

Where is the paint code on a Volkswagen Tiguan?

On Mk2 and Mk3 Tiguan models, the sticker is inside the driver's door jamb. On the original Mk1, check the door jamb or spare wheel well. The code is 3–4 characters. Enter your registration at the top of this page for an instant match.

Does Chipex cover all Volkswagen Tiguan generations?

Yes - we cover every UK-market Tiguan from the Mk1 (2007) through to the current Mk3. Use the year filter above.

My Tiguan has sill chips from a gravel driveway - what kit do I need?

For multiple sill chips, the Pro kit is recommended - it contains the most paint and is designed for repairs across larger areas.

Does Chipex stock Tiguan PHEV colours?

Yes - the Tiguan eHybrid uses the same paint code system as the standard Tiguan. Enter your registration in the search tool above for an instant match regardless of powertrain.

About the Volkswagen Tiguan

The Volkswagen Tiguan is Volkswagen’s best-selling SUV and one of the most popular mid-size crossovers in the UK, produced since 2007 and now in its third generation. Available in five and seven-seat configurations with petrol, diesel, and PHEV powertrains, the Tiguan combines practical SUV proportions with VW’s premium build quality and is a fixture of UK family motoring.

The Tiguan’s elevated ride height and frequent use on mixed road surfaces – including gravel driveways and rural roads – make front bumper and lower sill stone chips a common issue. Chipex stocks colour-matched touch up paint for every UK-market Tiguan colour from the original Mk1 through to the current Mk3.

Volkswagen Tiguan Generations and Paint Code Location

The Volkswagen Tiguan has run across three main generations:

Mk1 (2007–2016) · Mk2 (2016–2023) · Mk3 (2024–present)

Your Volkswagen Tiguan paint code is a three to four-character alphanumeric code. On Mk2 and Mk3 models, the sticker is inside the driver’s door jamb. On the original Mk1, check the driver’s door jamb or the spare wheel well in the boot.

Common Volkswagen Tiguan Paint Issues

Front bumper stone chips and lower sill chips are the most frequent issues – the Tiguan’s ride height exposes the lower body panels to road debris.

Deep Black Pearl (041) is the most popular Tiguan colour and requires thin-coat application – even small imperfections show clearly on a deep black finish. Pure White (L0A0) is the most forgiving Tiguan repair – a solid finish that blends predictably. Platinum Grey (7Y) is common on Mk2 and Mk3 models and responds predictably to the Chipex application method.
