OK, now that you have gotten the emotional outburst out of the way, :)  give
with the clearer details. Is this the 'bubbling over' battery? Does it hiss as
it outgasses after having the car run for awhile?

Have you checked your Alt's output voltage? Too much is not good. Is the
battery hefty enough to handle this car, maybe it's some little (excuse me)
cheap POS that cant absorb what VW though should be a normal amount of
recharging. 

Need more details,
