Why is my Kia Picanto making a strange noise when accelerating?

I recently noticed that my Kia Picanto is making a strange noise when I accelerate. It's a loud, high-pitched sound that seems to be coming from the engine. What could be causing this and how can I fix it?

It's possible that the noise is coming from a faulty fan belt. Have a mechanic take a look and replace it if necessary.

Check your oil level, low oil can cause strange noises. If it's low, top it up and see if the noise goes away.

Another possibility is that there is an issue with your exhaust system. Have it inspected and repaired if needed.
