Default Help! TCT noise

Hey guys, i read a lot of posts about TCT here and i know 'cards in spokes' shit...But I still can't really tell if there is anything wrong with my TCT and it starts to get on my nerves. If you guys can help I really appreciated.

Actually valves were adjusted around this time last year and I replaced my TCT with a modified one bought here this May. TCT was fine before I did the swap and the only reason I replaced TCT was because I was scared after reading all the threads about TCT.

Sounds normal. A failing/failed TCT really does sound like a card in bicycle spokes.

Someone says although TCT is fine, the idle sounds very rough and sounds like there is something wrong with the bearing. What do you guys think?
