    and the sound is scary...

    defi boost gauge + tap
    bolts for the cure for knocking subframes
    lower control arm front mount
    dsg service x2
    spark plug
    battery
    engine oil

    Hope you guys can help. i dont think i can drive it at all now or can i?.

    What age is the engine mate?? hard to hear clearly in the post but i know from experience the high pressure fuel pump cam follower can wear away and cause seriously abnormal wear on the inlet camshaft. Get it checked further, net diagnosis isnt the way to go mate, get it to a surgeon quick.
    Reason is say get it checked is if its shaking it may be a coil over plug thats gave up or it could be the above, mate you will get all sorts of responses here, have it checked properly, hope thats all it is
    Hope it turns out well
