Heard a pop then Loud whining noise when let off gas pedal
Neutral and rev engine, no change, usually not audible on acceleration, has gone away a couple times only to start making noise again a short time later

I didn't hear the pop, doesn't mean it didn't happen, but I just bought a 2013 and it's also making that whining sound during deceleration but not in neutral. Can't hear it over the radio so I didn't notice prior to purchase

Idles fine but dies when I give it gas

Kia Rio 2004 Automatic transmission 112000 miles
I have changed Idle control valve, mass air flow sensor. I am puzzled as to what the issue still is. The car starts and idles fine but when I press the gas pedal it dies. Does anyone know what the issue could be

Gave up on fixing it. After countless hours and parts. Was told Ecm needs flashed and reprogrammed by Kia!!! Cars not worth enough to spend that much !!!!

Have you checked for restricted exhaust ? Plugged catalytic converter.
