It's a for '91 Gt. I know they're not hugely expensive either way but it's the extra leg work I'd have to put in to get a genuine one as my local motor factor is round the corner the VW place is about 7 miles.
The reason I ask is I had problems getting the tension right on the last on (GSF). It would either squeal (too loose) or whine (too tight). There was no happy medium with it. As a result it hasn't lasted very long at all

worth seeking out a decent brand like conti which is probably what it had from new...doesnt have to be from vw

if you couldnt tension it maybe the sold you the wrong one

That could be a possibility as the tensioning ratchet thingy is right near the end of the run, only maybe 10mm length to go if you know what I mean? Have just been told there are 3 lengths to choose from; 675mm, 700mm and 710mm. You wouldn't happen to know would you?
