Why does my Kia Ceed's engine make a knocking noise?

I recently noticed that my Kia Ceed's engine is making a knocking sound when I accelerate. It seems to be coming from the engine bay and can be heard both inside and outside of the car. What could be causing this and should I be concerned?

It is possible that your engine is experiencing a malfunction in the fuel system or the ignition timing. I would recommend taking your Kia Ceed to a trusted mechanic to have it checked out.

This could also be a sign of low oil pressure or worn out bearings. It is important to have your car inspected as soon as possible to prevent any further damage to your engine.

I have personally experienced this issue with my Kia Ceed, and it turned out to be a faulty spark plug. I would suggest getting your spark plugs checked and replaced if needed.
