Ticking/Dripping Noise | True or False?

Just got a new DIESEL X5...

Usually from a cold start, with the A/C switched on, there is a noticeable (almost as loud as the indicators/blinkers) and persistent drip-drip (or is it a tick-tick?) noise that appears to be coming from the front left side. The noise stops the instant you stop the A/C fan, and comes back again if you switch it on. To be clear, this happens when you use the A/C (in other words it’s not the Aux. Heating).

Dealer says this is NORMAL for DIESEL cars...???

True or False?
