How to Find Your 1998 Audi's Color Code

Audi paint color codes are printed on a paper color id tag, often found around the spare tire area; some Audis also have a metal plate on the driver door jamb. The paper tag can fall off and disappear over time, leaving codes unavailable. Codes can include two parts, e.g., LY9H and P1; LY9H often corresponds to Polar White Clearcoat, and P1 can be used for the same white on some models. Older Audi models can be hard to identify by code; custom matching may be required.

1998 Audi Background Info

The 1998 Audi Vibe

In 1998, Audi was busy rewriting the rules of the executive driveway with the B5 A4 and the C5 A6. These cars didn't just look like they were carved from a single block of German granite; they felt like it, too. While other manufacturers were still figuring out how to keep doors from rattling, Audi was perfecting the "thud." The aesthetic was all about "stealth luxury"-clean lines, rounded edges, and colors that looked like they belonged in a high-end boardroom. We've narrowed our focus to the undisputed heavyweight champion of that era: Brilliant Black. It was the shade that turned every A4 into a junior diplomat's transport, provided you could keep the dust off it for more than five minutes.

Paint Health Check

Here's the deal: 1998 falls square in the middle of The Peeling Era. Audi was ahead of the curve with their fully galvanized steel bodies-which is why you rarely see a '98 with rust holes-but the clear coat technology was still a work in progress. While the shell is a tank, the top layer is vulnerable to delamination. If your Audi has spent its life under the sun, you're likely seeing "crows feet" or that dreaded white, hazy fog on the roof and trunk. This is the clear coat giving up the ghost and separating from the base color. Once that bond breaks, your paint isn't just fading; it's physically lifting off the car.

Restoration Tip

The golden rule for 1998 Audi paint is to seal your chips immediately. Because these cars use a high-solid clear coat over a base layer, a rock chip isn't just a cosmetic "beauty mark"-it's an entry point for air and moisture. Once the seal is broken, the clear coat around the edges of the chip starts to lose its grip, leading to massive peeling (delamination) that no amount of wax can fix. If you see a nick, don't wait for the weekend. Clean it out and get some fresh paint in there to lock the edges of the clear coat down before it decides to migrate south.
