You seriously kidding aren't you? A car with only 35 miles on it starts then spudders and is running rough would be immediately taken back to the dealer. This is not normal.

Even if it was easy, you're taking on liability by trying any repair. Do yourself a favor and don't touch a thing. Let the dealer handle it on warranty.

RE: a3 3.2 problem

The vehicle described has a MSRP of at least $35,000 or more if it has any options. Call the dealer and tell them you need a flatbed if it's that bad. Don't even lift the hood for this mechanical concern.
