I've got the same E-Z Fill, and the same problem.  There's sort of a little
rubber flapper valve part way into the VW's water filler neck, and it seems
to help if I try to jam the pointy part of the E-Z Fill between the little
plastic
struts that support the valve, thus jamming the valve partially open.  At
pretty low pressure, I can fill without much spilling, but I usually don't
want to wait that long, so I end up putting the pressure all the way up
and lettting some water run down the side.

I've seen something just like the E-Z Fill, but with a much narrower tube.
I wonder if that would do the trick - perhaps it could slip past the valve
and thus avoid the problem?  (Don't remember where I saw it - I'll have to
check a couple of catalogs.)
