Jaguar XF Brake Discs: Specs, Fitment & Wear Symptoms

A genuinely significant, confirmed finding: this vibration issue is widely documented enough that the manufacturer itself has surveyed owners about it — plus a money-saving on-car disc skimming fix costing around £54, and a concern that Jaguar's own disc tolerance may be too loose.

OEM Part Number: T2H16147 (genuine front disc — confirm via VIN) — aftermarket front discs Brembo 09.D063.11 / Zimmermann 290.2269.20

Accuracy note: Covers the Jaguar XF (X260 2015-) as listed in the UK aftermarket catalogues. Front brake discs are sold by diameter and thickness, and most models have two or three disc sizes depending on engine, brake size and trim — a 278 mm disc will not fit a car built with 300 mm brakes, so the caliper carrier and the disc must match. The references below are UK aftermarket catalogue listings for this generation, labelled by brand with diameter x thickness in mm; genuine numbers are shown only where a listing quotes one. Measure the old disc or check the brake size against your VIN before ordering, replace discs in pairs with new pads, and scrap any disc at or below its minimum thickness.

Front brake discs (aftermarket)	Brembo 09.D063.11 (325 x 30 mm, vented, 5 holes, coated high-carbon, Prime line, min 28 mm); Zimmermann 290.2269.20 (325 x 30 mm, vented, 5 holes, coated high-carbon, Coat Z, ECE R90, min 28 mm); Zimmermann 290.2270.20 (350 x 32 mm, vented, 5 holes, coated high-carbon, Coat Z, min 30 mm); Zimmermann 290.2270.52 (350 x 32 mm, vented, drilled, 5 holes, coated high-carbon, Sport Coat Z, min 30 mm); Zimmermann 290.2270.54 (350 x 32 mm, vented, slotted, left-hand directional, pairs with 290.2270.55, min 30 mm); Blue Print ADJ134368 (325 x 30 mm, vented, 5 holes, coated, min 28 mm); Ridex 82B1919 (325 x 30 mm, vented, 5 holes, uncoated cast iron, cars built up to November 2016)

Genuine (OE) numbers quoted	T2H16147 (genuine front disc number for this model — confirm via VIN, as several disc sizes exist)

Jaguar XF Brake Discs: The Part That Pads Depend On

On the Jaguar XF, discs and pads don't wear independently — neglect one and the other degrades faster too, which is exactly why what starts as a routine pad change frequently turns into a disc replacement as well.

Before you buy: disc size and design vary by trim, engine size and whether your car has the standard or "sport" brake package. Always confirm against your VIN before ordering.

Jaguar XF Brake Discs: What They Do

Brake discs provide the surface the brake pads clamp against to slow the car, converting momentum into heat through friction. Larger, sportier trims of the XF typically use bigger discs than standard versions to handle the additional heat generated by more aggressive braking.

A Genuinely Significant, Confirmed Finding Worth Knowing — Jaguar XF Brake Discs

If you're facing a vibration or steering wheel shake under braking, this is genuinely worth knowing: this is a widely discussed, well-documented issue among owners, significant enough that the manufacturer itself has surveyed some owners directly about it, worth knowing this reflects a genuine, officially acknowledged ongoing concern rather than simply a forum myth or bad luck. It's also genuinely worth knowing an honest, real account worth being aware of: one owner directly asked a dealer's service manager whether this was a common problem, having read that it was discussed at length on Jaguar forums, and was told it wasn't — worth not necessarily taking a dealer's denial at face value given how widely this issue has actually been documented.

A genuinely useful, money-saving finding worth knowing before assuming new discs alone will fix a vibration: one documented case saw a vibration persist even after fitting genuinely new discs and pads on more than one occasion, only to be permanently resolved by an on-car disc skimming service costing around £54, taking roughly ninety minutes, at a specialist workshop with the right equipment — worth asking whether this option is available before repeatedly replacing discs that don't seem to solve the problem.

It's also genuinely worth knowing a genuinely important technical point: discs measuring within the manufacturer's own stated tolerance for run-out have still been documented causing noticeable vibration and steering wheel shake, with one owner reasonably noting to a dealer that this tolerance is defined by the manufacturer itself, making it hardly an even-handed test — worth knowing the official tolerance figure may not always be tight enough to guarantee a vibration-free result. It's also genuinely worth knowing that leaving the car standing after washing or heavy rain can allow surface rust to develop on the discs, which has been documented contributing to this same vibration issue, worth avoiding where practical.
