Squeaking belt

Noticed this some time ago, while the engine is cold the belt is squeaking. Once it warms up, the problems goes away. Not a big deal, but wanted to get an advise take to the dealer and replace the belt or just live with it.
Oh, and another thing. Two valves are slightly knocking. Did anyone take this issue to a dealer and what was the outcome? The car is still on the warranty

Hey Gary,
Lately i am most of the time in Little Neck. Go to Brooklyn like once a week.
Well, these things are nothing really major. Little squeak and little knock. I am going for A service in 4k miles, so that would be a good time to get all these things done. Probably new belt and fix the valve gap

Last few times I was dealing with Chris. He's ok, no overcharge, no extra work, just what was needed
