For example when pulling out of a parking spot the engine is very loud on the passenger side of the engine. this is an automatic transmission, when pulling out of a parking spot and turning the wheel without giving gas the engine shakes as if a manual transmission car isnt given enough gas when letting out the clutch, the car shakes and then when engine picks up rpm it runs a lot smoother yet still the engine noise is a little bit loud.

it's really hard to tell by your description what is happening exactly. some people upload videos with sound to youtube or elsewhere to show what they are trying to describe.
