my previous car had a knocking sound when it was still new, especially while turning. Turns out there was a problem with the wheel camber and they replaced it for free. if they say its air con .. then it should disappear cos my forte's aircon not making any knocking sound.

hi qizhi... i touched 550 and the light came up.... btw the knocking sound my friend also have this prob with the older model...kia also say its normal...pek cek... but is it loud when u suddenly accelerate? one more thing is that do you find our alignment for our steering not straight? hi dog82 so far i have not try til light up.. around 1/4 tank, i will fill it up. its a soft knock sound, not loud. as long as i do slow acceleration to moving, it is ok... after tat then i increase speed, no knock sound too... mine steering is straight.. my previous car's steering not straight, accident free too, it will go slightly to one side but as long as i hold onto the steering wheel, it is ok... but it did not cause any problem for my previous car which i drove for 3 years. anyhow, we need to hold on to the steering wheel so its fine for me. unless you need to use abit more strength than normal to counter the steering wheel to be straight then tat could be a serious problem... one of the possibilities that caused the car to have the problem of not going straight could be due to potholes, poor road conditions or even minor accidents.. these can cause Tie Rods to work incorrectly. Tie Rods are attached on both ends of the steering rack. if your car pulls to one side while driving or when braking, it could be due to bad tie rods. tires will also show uneven wear on the inside and outside edge of the tire. however, one of the most noticeable signs of tie rods going bad will be a knocking sound coming from the front end of the vehicle when you turn into a parking space or some other low speed, tight turning situation. if the tie rods do need to be replaced, its recommended that both right and left sets of tie rods be replaced at the same time and a full four-wheel vehicle alignment be done once they have been changed. if you suspect your tie rods might be bad, there are a few simple checks that mechanics can make to see if there is any excess movement in the tie rods where there should not be. if your car has encountered any extreme road conditions or unusual contact with the front wheels (like striking a curb, for example), it may be a good idea to get the tie rods inspected as well.

hi to all with the "soft knocking when slowly accelerating & reversing", managed to get it solved @ Harmony motor AMK . Get C&C to tightened the shaft screw on the brake rotor as well as greased the brake pads & springs.

its almost a SOP to brush off complaints about noises as 'normal' cnc mechanic told me the soft knock at low speed is normal due to my tyre thread design.
