I have recently had front discs and pads changed on the car and have taken it back twice for replacements as I am getting steering wheel wobble under braking, I am fairly sure as this is the second replacement that I haven't got warped discs, but is there another culprit worth checking maybe inner/outer tie rods or other bush/suspension related things to check.

First thing is get the runout checked of the disc,what brand of disks / pads were fitted.
When first fitted they do need to be bedded in for 200-300 miles ,eg no big stops , hard on the brakes.

I replaced my front discs on my V70 with non Volvo items. I warped them within a month. Not badly, but just noticeable. And I drive like a bit of a Grandma 99% of the time. I am hoping Volvo ones will be much better when I replace them.
