What kinda noises? how bad does it shake? any clue as to where the noise might be coming from? Shake at idle?

It would be helpful to describe your issue a little bit more and be as detailed as possible so we can try and help you out as best as we can.

Is it throwing any codes?

Is the car shaking for the actual block shaking in the engine bay?

^LOL!

+1 on better description.

Op probably won't respond,but for anyone that comes across this thread:

1) Any CEL(check engine lights?) that could be the cause of a misfire?
2)Motor mounts, instability during idle would be noticeable.
3)If you're driving while it's shaking, CHECK YOUR WHEEL NUTS!!

Sorry guys I'm new to the site, but I'll take a video of it.
The noise is cuming from the passager side by the belt.
When I put it in reverse feel like is gonna shut off and it shakes ever more.

Side mount would be my guess.

Huh? I don't see any vibration or shaking. And really don't hear anything out of the ordinary. Pull the serpentine belt and see if the noise you think you hear is gone.

If the vibration doesn't happen until you put it in gear, then it's likely a bad/broken mount or mounts...
