The CCT and CCTL are not the same thing and it sounds like you had more issues than a rattling CCTL. This is the F4i forum and you are talking about an F2. Your messages are very difficult to understand.

i dont have to to argue but with past engine problem i would have to agree everyone that has had major problems have had stretched timing chains, therefore the cctl is only extended enough for stock chain length. or possibly the cct is worn down causing slack in the chain. the cctl does rattle but the damage would be caused by improper chain tension. which with the shitty design of the tool used to re-install the cctl could have something to do with it also

What would the tool to re-install the CCTL have anything to do with causing improper chain tension?

What tool... you mean the retaining pin that you pull out once you have everything bolted up?

I just replaced my CCTL with another OE CCTL. The stock one I took out looks fine and as stated previously, the rattle is most likely just the internals and has no effect on tension. It''s just noise!

Yup....it is just noise, it has nothing to do with chain tension...the CCTL is doing its job just fine besides the annoying noise it makes...

So is the picture being shown correct or not? From what I''ve read it looks like the MAJORITY of people who replace their "CCT" are really replacing their CCTL they just didn''t know thats what It''s called.

Yes, this is correct, it''s the CCTL that is rattling.
