Message Not sure if anyone else has run into this, but the shorter belt that's shipped for Z's with UR pulleys is too short (A195M-97EOM-VW) and the stock one is too long (A172M-V53SM-VW). These are 3-rib belts.

Problem is, I have an underdrive pulley (UR), and could not get the one on that came with my 120K kit, so went and got a stock belt. Now that the stock belt has stretched, I can't tighten it enough to get it to stop squealing. Nothing says "broken down old car" like a squealing belt.

Is there a belt size (3-rib) that falls between the two?
