2015 X5 interior color confirmation

[james92se]

I don't know why this is so difficult but I need to determine the exact interior color on this vehicle. It's a 2015 X5 sDrive 35i and I'm looking to touch up some of the interior seat and door handle material that has worn off a bit. This interior has the sort of pleather seat material and it's not quite white, but it is a very light cream or champagne type color, but again not quite white.

I keep seeing mentions of using the last 7 digits of the VIN with a decoder and using that to determine the interior color but all the links on these old threads are dead or don't seem to tell me the info.

The last 7 digits of the VIN are 0H40810. Can somebody help me out with the interior color? Thanks

The VIN decoding sites appear to be going through some changes. Some days they work and some days they don’t

I did get the Bimmercat.com VIN decoding site to work when I entered your VIN. Here’s the decoded VIN info below...your interior color code is: LCEW (LC = “Dakota leather” & EW = "elfenbein-weiss"

Yes, if you are translating it from German. In German, the name is elfenbein-weiss...you may want to keep the German name in the back of your mental Rolodex because you may run across a site or vendor that is using the German terminology instead of the English translation. Also retain the code LCEW because you may also see the Nappa leather code that is the same color but different type of leather (leder in German) which is NAEW.
