Loud rattle coming from the front left wheel since brakes were replaced. The noise stops an goes away when applying the brake.

If I had to guess, I would say that the brake caliper bolts probably are not tight enough. If you can take your wheel off, then you can check them yourself. Check out the following guides for some guidance.
