more problems lol
this car is being a pain in the rear at 67k miles
i had the hood open today and is it normal for the entire jump to move when i stomp on the gas at idle?
but the MAIN reason i opened the hood was to find that my aux fan doesnt spin
is it hard to replace a low beam headlight? mine went out (still gotta get a 3rd brake light)
now my vacumm pump is leaking oil
my mechanic rolled is ankle and is on crutches so now he cant fix my tie rods

Ouch, thats a lot of problems sorry to hear it. As for changing the low beam its super easy. You just take the cover off and theres kinda like a clip/push down tab, you just push that down while turning and it will release and you can take it out. you will understand better once you see it. And when you say jump and move do you mean like the hole engine just rapidly shakes? if so then it might be common because myn does that too. I dont know much about the rest of the issues though, sorry.
Good luck!

Depends how much it moves since a little is normal but if it looks like it is trying to attack you then you might need engine mounts.
Low beam is easy heck any auto parts place will do it for you for free
as for vacuum pump good luck I have no clue.

Vacuum pumps are common on M271s.. mine was replaced under warranty at like 23,000 miles and is not problematic.
Too much engine movement, like Trey said, possibly engine mounts.
Easy to fix low beam
The aux fan not spinning is odd, haven't heard of that before on the 05s.. Checked fuses?
