I recently purchased a Kia Stonic and noticed that it sometimes makes a clicking noise while I am driving. It seems to happen randomly and I'm not sure what could be causing it. Can someone please provide some insight on what could be causing this issue and if it is something that I should be concerned about?
ReplyHi Maggie, the clicking noise could be coming from a few different places. One possibility is that it could be the CV joints, which are responsible for transferring power from the engine to the wheels. If they are worn out or damaged, they can make a clicking noise. It could also be an issue with the wheel bearings or suspension components. I recommend taking your car to a mechanic to get it checked out.
Hey Maggie, it's normal for cars to make some noise while driving. If the clicking noise only happens occasionally and it doesn't seem to impact the performance of your car, it could just be a minor issue. However, if it is happening frequently and you feel like it is getting worse, it's better to err on the side of caution and have a mechanic take a look at it.
Hi Maggie, I had a similar issue with my Kia Stonic and it turned out to be a loose exhaust heat shield. It's a relatively easy fix and shouldn't cost too much. Definitely get it checked out by a mechanic to make sure it's not a more serious issue, but it could be something as simple as that.
