Had head gasket, thermostat, temp switch and water bottle replaced. after driving about 30 km I stopped and checked water reservoir / bottle. Found foam and bubbling in water reservoir / bottle, can see a little water has leaked out water reservoir / bottle cap. Any suggestions as to what the cause could be ?

get a compression test done and check the coolant for any signs of exhaust gases, a good machanic will know what to do. was the head skimmed prior to refitting?, cracked head?, wrong torque settings!!, wrong gasket?, dirty build?, new head bolts?, wrong garage/machanic!!!. good luck.
