Tina, it's always best to get any unusual noises checked out by a mechanic just to be on the safe side. It could be something simple like a loose heat shield, but it's better to be safe than sorry.

Hey Tina, I had the same issue with my Sportage and it turned out to be a faulty serpentine belt. Make sure to have your mechanic check for any potential belt issues.

Hi Tina, I had a similar problem with my Kia Sportage and it ended up being an issue with the timing chain. It's important to have this checked and potentially replaced to avoid damage to your engine.
