Abstract: Let $K_0(mathrm{Var}_{mathbbQ})[1/mathbbL]$ denote the Grothendieck ring of $mathbbQ$-varieties with the Lefschetz class inverted. We show that there exists a K3 surface X over $mathbbQ$ such that the motivic zeta function $zet{a}_X(t):=su{m}_n[mathrm{Sym}^{n}X]t^n$ regarded as an element in $K_0(mathrm{Var}_{mathbbQ})[1/mathbbL][[t]]$ is not a rational function in $t$, thus disproving a conjecture of Denef and Loeser.
