If any of you have experienced the "popping" noise when you shift, there's a TSB out for it that should fix the problem:

TSB#: KT2010012902

This bulletin provides information related to some 2010MY Forte Sedan and Koup vehicles with 2.0L engines equipped with manual transaxles and no cruise control. Some vehicles may experience a pop noise during the 2-3 shift. At times it may produce a pop noise around 3000 rpm during the shift depending on customer driving style.
To correct this condition, the ECM should be reprogrammed using the GDS download as described in this bulletin.
