2005 Renault Espace coolant/radiator problem!!!!

Leaks & Noises
Hi I have an 05 grand espace and had leaking coolant and engine slightly overheating and then regulating itself. Took it to garage and they said this was due to a cracked radiator so that was replaced (had a cambelt change a few weeks before!).
Picked car back up and they hadn't bled the radiator and then told us that they couldn't bleed it due to a new leak at the back of the engine! After a week with no diagnosis I have asked for the car back and tried to bleed it myself but the water just gushes out!
Any ideas before I attemp to take it to another garage would be greatly appreciated.

Could check thermostat is not jammed shut .But would advise you getting a pressure test on cooling system to check for external leaks and a block test to check for head / gasket failure .
