I'm having a problem when I start my a3 and wanted to see if anyone has had a similar issue before taking it to the dealer. When I start the car it idles normally for a second then the rpm drop in chunks of about 100 until it just dies around 600. I can start backing out and have to rev it to try and get it going. Each progressive restart gets harder and harder with more sputtering but once I start going there's no problem. Any ideas? I still have about 200 miles to drive before I get home and to the dealer
