the right side is the gearbox

check all the plastic wheel arch pieces or bumper bar
battery clamps electrical connections and engine mounts
check radiator mounts and cooling fan /loose bolts

air filter etc...check wheel nuts for tightness

sure it isnt the timing chains
water pump/ belt/ or its cover :redface:

economy
check timing /air filter/ injector clean /fuel filter/ fuel pressure regulator
dissy leads /plugs/ tps
