Do you listen an engine noise on your Kia Stronic when you drive your vehicle? We know that this is very troubling and that you are wondering. Discovering such a noise is not always a good indicator, but it may also be nothing major. To support you resolve this problem, our team has decided to prepare this article content to help you in this investigation. In order to do this research as accurately as possible, we will first concentrate on clicking noises, then on whistling noises and, finally, on engine noises on Kia Stronic metal type.
I listen a clicking engine noise Kia Stronic
In case you recognise a clicking engine noise on your Kia Stronic, and that this noise is close to a click, you will have to identify the source area of it to be able to know the reason of it. You will need a mechanical stethoscope or a large screwdriver to locate the original area of these noises.
I listen a clicking noise coming from my high engine
If you listen an engine noise on Kia Stronic, and this noise is located at the top of the engine, it means that it is located at your cylinder head and accompanying elements. Two elements can be the origins of these engine noises on Kia Stronic. Either the hydraulic pushers, in general it is because of their defective “hydraulic catch-up” system that we will listen these clicking noises, often when cold and vanishes when hot. Otherwise, it is your the play of your rocker arms or their state of wear that is the concern. In such a case, reflect on swapping them.
I listen a noise coming from the bottom engine of my Kia Stronic
If you have determined the area of source of engine noise on Kia Stronic that comes from your low engine, it may be that your rods or piston shafts are the triggers. In both situations, the long-term risk is engine failure. These two fixes are very complex and most mechanics will advise you to replace the motor of your Kia Stronic.
I listen an engine clicking noise on Kia Stronic coming from combustion
Finally, if you think that this clicking noise is linked to the combustion of your engine, there are three plausible triggers of it. Verify the state of your glow plugs which if worn can hinder the proper combustion of the fuel mixture. Then, your timing belt may be shifted and may poorly control the timing of the various engine elements to promote good combustion. And finally, the most classic reason, comes from your injection, which is either blocked or one or more injectors is affected. In this case, do not be reluctant to read this article content which deals in detail with the different injector noises on Kia Stronic.
Hissing noise / engine friction Kia Stronic
Engine noise Kia Stronic close to a bearing
If it is close to a squeaking noise you may have one of the bearings of your engine accessory parts that are reached. So check the state and try to locate the exact origins of this noise by positioning someone at the engine at idle, and if this noise is more likely to manifest in high rpm, accelerate and position someone at the engine block to discover the location of origin of the noise. The three elements whose bearings are often at the origin of these noises are the water pump, the injection pump and the oil pump.
Engine noise Kia Stronic when releasing or depressing the clutch
In the case that you perceive engine noise on Kia Stronic, but this noise happens mainly when you release or depress your clutch pedal, in this case it is very likely that your release bearing is worn. Indeed, a worn release bearing will produce a noise close to a bell noise. To have more information about this noise and if you have managed to verify that the release bearing is indeed the reason of your concerns, direction here, to find a complete file on release bearing sounds on Kia Stronic.
Engine noise Kia Stronic close to a friction
In case that you listen a motor noise on your Kia Stronic, and, that this noise is close to a friction, it is likely that one of your belts or one of the elements that triggers it is the source of your problems.Often, we will start to listen a motor noise on Kia Stronic, close to a friction when one of the belts is worn out or when one of the related parts like your alternator, or your tensioner roller is the problem. So keep in mind to check their state and go to your mechanic to swap the elements in question. If you have been able to target the noise as coming from the belts and you want more information about it, check out this article content on belt noise on Kia Stronic for a complete guide.
Metal motor noise Kia Stronic
In case that you listen an engine noise on Kia Stronic and this noise is close to metal noise, it is plausible that this noise comes from your gearbox or clutch. Indeed, a metallic noise in the engine block is often connected with damaged sprockets. Try to check that this noise comes from the transmission, if this is the case, quickly go to your motor mechanic or you would get a break down. Finally, the second possibility is that your silent engine blocks or rubber mounts may be dead. This triggers a metallic noise every time your engine moves, either because of a change of pace (acceleration or braking) or, when you pass on roads in poor state. Verify the state of your silentblocks and swap them if needed.
