How to Find Your Oldsmobile Silouette's Color Code

Oldsmobile paint codes were placed in many different spots over the years, making them difficult to locate. The plate is often in the glove box or the spare tire well; if not there, locations vary widely. Codes typically appear like 51/WA316N and are usually preceded by BC/CC (e.g., BC/CC 51 or BC/CC 316N). Two-tone plates may use U or L for position, such as BC/CC U316N or BC/CC L316N.

The Color Breakdown

Oldsmobile didn't just build the "Cadillac of Minivans"; they gave us a palette of 14 colors that proved they really went for it in the late '90s and early 2000s. We're talking about everything from the regal Crimson King and International Blue Metallic to colors that sound like indie band names, such as Dark Otter Metallic and Smokey Carmel Metallic. Whether you're driving a van in Fernmist Green or the classic Silvermist, your Silhouette was designed to stand out in the carpool lane.

What to Watch For

If your Silhouette is starting to look a little "ashy" on the roof or hood, you're likely dealing with the classic GM clear coat "sunburn." This paint is known for peeling once the sun has had its way with it for a decade or two. Before you start your repair, you need your specific DNA code. On the Silhouette, Oldsmobile hid the Service Parts Identification sticker in a quirky spot: check the left rear storage compartment (inside the door) or inside the jack storage cover. You're looking for a code that starts with "WA" or "U" followed by four digits.

Driveway Repair Tip

Since colors like Pewter Metallic and Redfire Metallic are packed with tiny metallic flakes, they have a habit of "falling asleep" at the bottom of your touch-up bottle. Shake that bottle for at least 60 seconds longer than you think is necessary to wake up the sparkles. When applying, don't try to fill a deep chip in one go. Dabbing a giant blob of Dark Teal will just leave you with a dark bump. Instead, apply three or four paper-thin layers, letting each one dry for 15 minutes. It requires patience, but it's the difference between a "scar" and a "fix."
