Exclamation 12 mc hard top

Just bought my dream car and I love it..possibly more than I love my wife lol I have only 000795mls on it and every time my car sits for a while and I turn it on and let it warm up it makes a ticking sound, it comes and goes but I have no clue what it is. I contacted the dealer and they said it may need to be driven and sometimes with new mc it takes some time to break it in. Any suggestions?

There is a recall on the chain tensioners I thought it was taken care of on the newer ones...

Have you checked oil levels ect ? might be low from the factory ...
