What year is your car? Your profile says 93 but your signature says 92. If it is 92 that belt is the wrong one. The 92 takes a 6K1020.

That belt is wrong for the 92 that might be why it broke.

His original belt was only .5 inch bigger. How did it work to begin with?

Worked like a charm. never noticed any issues until I replaced the tensioner and started screaming like a stuck pig.
