Welcome to the Jaguar Owners Club Kev
Keep your eyes open for the Jag Tour which may run in a few months where we visit the Factory and watch XF's being built!

if the pads touch the disks then they can get really hot, so when doing motorway driving they will be hot.
go and take a motorway run and then stop and put your hands near the wheel hub (not on the disks) and if they glow warm then they are probably touching slightly. Or it could have done that a while back
They cannot warp without the heat so I would think its all down to the calipers or pads
Don't feel too disallusioned by this.. i had quite a few Lexus before and they also had the same problems which was all down to the caliper.

Hi
Sorry to hear of your warped disk problem.
The warping is caused by over heating of the disk. Do you brake at high speeds a lot? Live on a large hill?
Have you had the calipers overhauled to check the slide pins are not corroded?
When the car goes in to limp mode it should set a fault code, i would go and get the fault code read from the memory and see whats causing that, maybe ABS due to the faulty calipers?
Keep us updated

Welcome to the club mate.
eBay is always a good place to go.. looking at the mesh grilles for mine and dreaming :)

I've had my S-Type for almost a year now, I'm enjoying it as much now as i was then - should have bough the car sooner. It's the V8 Sport model, so can shift when the little S button is pressed - in truth it can shift without it but it's awesome with it. I enjoy the presence and the drive down to Bournemouth to collect my son :)
Is yours the facelift model mate?
-
your welcome.. other that you could try eBay.. good stuff pops up now and again
