Hi there,

DANGER....this is telling you there is NOT enough oil pressure. The clatter you hear means inadequate oil is reaching the cams or lifters.

Can you confirm you have used the correct grade & viscosity of oil? Is oil leaking?

Please re-check the oil level again - allow vehicle to sit for 5mins, then check oil level on the ENGINE dipstick. If dipstick level is up to the full mark, then assume you have enough oil and let the engine idle for 5mins.

If the clatter remains, then suspect a problem with the oil pump, or oil filter causing a blockage.


Cheers,

Please show me the dipstick of transmission on a 2015 kia sorento. ...thanks
The Kia sorento, 2014 , 15 , 16, has no transmission stick. The unit is self contained, no way to check it. Probably should have it flushed every 50,000 miles. It takes a special machine to change the trans., fluid, Kia dealer wants over $350 to change,,, way to high
