Default Symptoms but no solution! Need a bit of help please, I'm desperate

Ok, my audi is a 2.8 Quattro- with 108,xxx miles. It just recently began idling very radically as i come(slow down) to a stop, and then eventually dies, and the battery light pops on. As the problem proceeded, (as of last night) I was coming off the freeway ramp and threw it into 4th gear then as i accelerate it stuttered and "hit a wall" I suppose you could say and then catched after a few moments. So since then it's been stuttering then catching when I start accelerate in every gear. I've compiled a list of possible malfunctions, let me know what you think please. I need help ASAP I'm a working student and don't have much time on my hands and my car is my only means of transportation...
- Vacuum leak
- Bad fuel injector
- Replace coils or plugs
- Misfiring cylinders
- MAF Sensor(Mass flow air sensor)/oxygen sensor?
- Air Intake leak?

Thanks,
Javon2.8Q

To locate your problem have it scanned for free at an autozone or advance or some other auto store. They can't read all of the codes but it something anyway. Unless you can locate a Vag-com. That will read them all for you.

Post back with some codes for us. That way we can help.
