i'd change the belt, and while you're at it, spin the idler pulleys to see how they sound. usually the bearings get dry after a while.
i tried the belt dressing, and it just made the noise worse. the problem with aged belts is that the ribs get glazed/smooth and then squeek when rubbing against the pulley ribs.

one of your pulleys went bad, nothing major but you should have it checked out before is locks up on you.

@navin thanks i read the CDesign post and its exactly like what i have. Sometimes i get slight jerks when i step on the car and i also get this increased immision light randomly. The only bad thing is that i dont have warranty anymore.
