New belt break in??

[Ryan02Stang]

I needed a new serpentine belt so I took it to the dealer and they replaced it under warranty. There is a ticking now coming from my engine. It sounds like its coming from the belt or one of the pullies. I went back the the dealer and asked what the heck the noise was and they just said the belt was breaking in. The car is running fine...it just ticks...and the tick is pretty consistent with each revolution of the belt. Is this normal?

Break in for a belt never heard that. If so it should be just like a mile. Think how many revs that thing turns in just going up the block. I know i had a lifter problem in my GT. Ticking coming from the engine. Ford fixed it. Look at the idler pullies and see if they are making the sound.
