What do I do if my Kia Picanto is making strange noises?

I recently noticed that my Kia Picanto is making a strange noise when I start the engine and while driving. What could be causing this and what steps should I take to address the issue?

It's possible that the noise is coming from a faulty belt in the engine. Check for any visible damage or wear and tear on the belts and if necessary, get them replaced. This should fix the issue.

Another common cause of strange noises in the Kia Picanto is a loose or damaged exhaust pipe. If this is the case, it's important to get it fixed as soon as possible as a damaged exhaust can lead to decreased engine performance and increased emissions.

In some cases, the noise may be coming from the transmission. This could be due to low transmission fluid, which can lead to long-term damage if not addressed. Take your car to a certified mechanic to get the transmission fluid levels checked and topped up if needed.
