What can cause a grinding noise in my Kia Ceed?

Recently, my Kia Ceed has been making a grinding noise when I start the engine or drive at low speeds. It seems to be coming from the front of the car. What could be causing this and how can I prevent it?

An issue with the CV joints can also cause a grinding noise. This is typically accompanied by clicking or popping sounds while turning.

It's possible that your brake pads are worn down and need to be replaced. This can cause a grinding noise as the metal of the brake pad rubs against the rotor.

Another possible cause could be a damaged wheel bearing. This can also create a grinding noise when the car is moving.
