Default Leaking coolant before and after having water pump & timing belt job done at dealer...

It's leaking less quickly than before...but still leaking.

Anybody know what they likely missed?

Default this happened on my 2.8. It was my plastic Tstat housing, it was cracked

where it mounts against the tstat. It would only leak after t stat was open. I had to redo the tbelt job. it was fun.
