Replace the front left brake hose. Although it may look fine upon visual inspection hoses can colapse internally.I always reccomend replacing both sides as they are used equally. Also make sure the caliper slides freely back and forth when it is not under any pressure. All slides and rails should be free of rust and applied with a thin coat of anti-sieze
