Do the math - you gave it less than a .166666 amp hour charge and it "went to full charge"? Sounds like a capacity issue to me!

(Of course, I question just what gave you the idea that it was fully charged - do you mean the charger current dropped? If so, then, again, do the math - the battery is bad. But onehundred80 already told you that, didn't he? )

Oh, and these cars did not come with that battery (correct me if I am wrong, guys) they came with a White VARTA battery.
