Question drive with cylinder misfire? AMU vs BEA?

Hi guys,
So i was driving and all of a sudden i got a loss of power and a strange sound coming from my engine (like i was driving on a flat or maybe driving a diesel engine. A weird rattle sound). I bought a car diagnostic tool ($20) and it told me i have:
16684.p0300 = Random misfire detected-any cylinder
16686.p0302 = cylinder #2- misfire detected
16688.p0304 = cylinder #4- misfire detected
16536.p0152 = 02 sensor circuit - high voltage (bank 2 sensor 1)
I read that it can be due to bad spark plugs and coils. I want to order some on ECS but i have 2 options AMU and BEA for coil packs.
**Which is right for my 02 225 tt quattro?
**Also, can i drive to the shop with the misfires? or should i get it towed? (its like 20 mi)

Ive never really done much to it myself, except oil changes. How hard is it? Is there a step by step instructions on how to do it? (pics)

Swap the coils from cylinders 2 & 4 to cylinders 1 & 3. make sure you mark each one before removing & see if the faults follow the coils. If so replace all coils & spark plugs (dealer only). As far as driving it 20 miles it could possibly damage the catalytic converter.
