Thermostat still leaking.

A few weeks ago while driving my v6 ZT a high temp warning flashed on the info screen. I had lost a large amount of coolant so i topped up and then went looking for where i had lost it. Thanks to this club i checked the thermostat first and found a puddle in the v. The following day i rang the garage,told them where the leak was and gave them the info where to get the thermostat and pipe kit from. I had the car back only to find one of the injectors leaking,i took it back down the next day. With that all done i set about enjoying my driving with my new thermostat and engine mount that i had done the week before. After a few days i checked the coolant level which was a little down,it gave me no cause for concern as i put it down to air working its way out. I topped up the next day,the day after that etc etc. The v is full of coolant

. The car is going back in next tuesday. How could they have got it so wrong? Is the job that hard to do or are standards slipping?
