On the nearside door pillar there should be a plate detailing the colours, ours says 19N. Colours are:

14E = Neat Green 5S / Silent Silver 4Z
14F = Silver Stone 11B / Silent Silver 4Z
14N = Bordeaux Red 6R / Silent Silver 4Z
15J = Blue Violet Mica 11P / Silent Silver 4Z
17R = Indigo Blue 12N / Silent Silver 4Z
19N = Highlight Silver 18G / Silent Silver 4Z
A1H = Brilliant Black A2Y / Silent Silver 4Z
A2B = Brilliant Black A2Y / Silent Silver 4Z
A2G = Chaste White PT / Silent Silver 4Z
A2T = Chaste White PT / Highlight Silver 18G

The recommended engine oil is 5W30, either mineral, semi-synthetic or fully synthetic.

Muzz is correct. :D

The FAQs on here says you can also use 10w/30, 10w/40, or even 15w/40. :wink:
