Why is my Kia Stonic making a strange noise?

Recently, my Kia Stonic has been making a strange noise when I accelerate. It almost sounds like a grinding or whining noise. What could be causing this and how can I fix it?

Hi Samuel, it sounds like there may be an issue with your car's transmission. It's best to get it checked by a qualified mechanic as soon as possible. In the meantime, try not to accelerate too aggressively and avoid driving for long periods of time.

Hey Samuel, this could also be a symptom of a worn out clutch. If you notice the noise getting worse when you change gears, this is likely the case. Take your car to a mechanic and they can replace the clutch if necessary.

Hi Samuel, another potential cause could be a bad wheel bearing. This can create a whining noise when driving at higher speeds. Get your bearings checked and replaced if necessary.
