It's possible that the noise is coming from a loose or damaged part in your engine. I would recommend taking your Kia Picanto to a trusted mechanic to have it checked out.

Another potential cause for the noise could be low oil levels or dirty oil. Make sure to regularly check your oil levels and have your oil changed at the recommended intervals.

If the noise only occurs when the car is cold, it could be due to a loose or rusted heat shield. This is not a major issue but should still be addressed by a mechanic to prevent further damage.

Overall, it's always better to err on the side of caution and have your car checked out if you notice any unusual noises. It's better to catch and address the issue early on before it becomes a bigger and more expensive problem.
