My steering wheel shakes when braking over 40 mph

most likely a warped rotor, check front end components (tie rod ends, ball joints). if a caliper is sticking the rotor will get very hot, get black, or discolor, and bend (warp). drive around for10 min. and jab the brakes hard several times during the drive. stop and feel the temp (don't touch) of each wheel with your hand. they should be equally warm. hot or smoking is not a good caliper.

My jaguar 4.2 2003 s type car will not start when hot but if you wait 20 mins it will start. stat & waterpump replaced.there is no coolant loss or signs of overheating , car drives fine apart from this...

sounds like the temp sencer switch is bad the fan isn't comming on when you turn the car off
when you turn your motor off the temp in the motor rises and the fan shood come on thats why you need to wait 20min to restart the temp has gone down and it isnt vapor locked

if the computer is located in the engine compartment it could be overheating. the solution to the computer overheating is a new computer. expensive. I have seen this happen on other vehicles as well.
