It's possible that there could be a problem with your engine's timing belt or pulleys. It's best to take your car to a trusted mechanic for a diagnostic test and potential replacement.

Check your oil level and the condition of your oil. If it's low or dirty, that could be causing the buzzing noise. Try changing your oil and see if that helps alleviate the noise.

Another common cause of engine noise in Kia Sportages is a faulty PCV valve. This small part helps regulate the pressure in your engine and if it's not functioning properly, it can create a buzzing noise. Get it checked and replaced if necessary.
