What to do if Kia Cerato shakes after starting?
Kia Cerato 2015: Shakes after starting? The problem needs to sorted out with the dealer and Kia, so go back and tell the dealer you are unhappy with the car as it is and request them to fix it. Tell them you will not accept the car as it is. Ask them to demonstrate on another Cerato that the problem is ‘normal’.
Why is my Kia Cerato making so much noise?
It seems that Kia has changed from hydraulic to mechanical lash adjusters, which is the reason for the noise. They told us the change was made for better reliability and service life, and lower cost of servicing.
When does Kia 2.0 engine knock at Cold Start?
I see lots of issues with the KIA 2.0 engine knock at a cold start such as in the morning or if the car has sat for at least 8 hours. Has anyone actually found the problem or have a solution. I’ve read it’s normal for that engine but find it hard to believe since it didn’t make that noise until 70,000 to 75,000 miles.
What kind of fuel does Kia Cerato use?
It should run on 91-octane fuel without pinging; the knock sensor should ensure that it doesn’t occur. Running it on higher-octane fuels makes it less prone to pinging, and again the knock sensor should have it running on the edge of pinging without actually doing it.
Why does my Kia Cerato make a ticking noise?
A ticking noise from the engine of a modern car is often the first signs of a build-up of sludge inside the engine. The hydraulic lash adjusters (which control the amount of clearance in the valve-train) operate on the same oil that lubricates the entire engine.

How does hydraulic lash adjuster work on Kia Cerato?
The hydraulic lash adjusters (which control the amount of clearance in the valve-train) operate on the same oil that lubricates the entire engine. If sludge has begun to build up in the engine, these lash adjusters are often the first components to be damaged.
