The wheel binds with the caliper on when the car hasn't been started? Did they push the pistons back in before reinstalling it? It sounds like some sort of brake line issue to me if the fluid can't be pushed out of the caliper.

Is "putting oem back on" is referring to the oem rotor or just the clips? If not, check the width on both front rotors. If one is out of specification, it might be too thick for the caliper/pad. Also, check the pads' thickness as well.

If you only have problems after being on the road, you could try driving in diagnostic/pedal-dance mode, or even remove the ABS fuse, to see if the VSC/Ediff/ABS is going haywire. If you still have issues, your problem is more likely mechanical. If everything is fine in those modes then you probably have an electronic fault.
