Whether there are 4 or 5 studs is not important since the caliper system is the same….

Works very well on Grand Scénic 3 2.0 Dci 160 Jade from 2010/02. Remember to check the brake level in the reservoir and empty it with a syringe when it rises when you push the piston back.

Hello, the tutorial is the right one, I changed my front brake pads and it's very easy. On the other hand, in the photo of the front hub, there are only 4 tapped holes to fix the wheel while there are 5 on the Scenic 3. Otherwise everything is good.

Pretty clear. I tested it on Scénic III phase 2 from 2013. Be careful, you need a 7-point hex key and not a 6-point key.

Good evening, I think this tutorial is not for a Scenic 3 but for a Scenic 2. The middle of a Scenic 3 has 5 studs for fixing the wheel. Sébastien.
