I recently bought a Kia ProCeed and have noticed that it makes a whining noise whenever I accelerate. It doesn't seem to affect the performance of the car, but it is quite loud and a bit concerning. What could be the cause of this noise?
ReplyHi Samantha, the whining noise you are hearing could be caused by a variety of issues. It could be a problem with the exhaust system, such as a leak or a loose component. It could also be a sign of a worn-out belt or pulley. I would recommend taking your car to a trusted mechanic for a thorough inspection to pinpoint the exact cause of the noise.
Hi Samantha, I had a similar issue with my Kia ProCeed and it turned out to be a loose heat shield. The mechanic simply tightened it and the whining noise disappeared. So before bringing it to a mechanic, you could check for any loose components in the exhaust system yourself. Hope this helps!
Hello Samantha, I had this same problem with my ProCeed and it was due to a faulty transmission fluid pump. This is a bit of a more complex issue and will require a visit to the dealership for a proper diagnosis and repair. I suggest scheduling an appointment with your local Kia dealership as soon as possible.
