The replacement I got leaked 3 months after out the vent hole during a trackday. (Maintenance free battery)
Maybe your car doesn't like a maintenance free battery?

If you had a conventional battery and you were sure it wasn't being overcharged, I'd suggest you draw down the battery fluid to just above the plates.
