step one would be to get your car scanned. it may help you with your misfire problem. a lot of times a misfire is caused by bad coilpack, especially if it is the same cylinder each time. the scan should help. if it is the random multiple misfire you may have a MAF problem or a vac leak. a scan will help.
when you say the "tiptronic just stopped working" do you mean that you can't push the stick over into manual mode and shift the transmission? if so, do a search for tiptronic magnet. that is most likely the problem. If you mean that your transmission, in general, is not shifting properly, well then you may have bigger issues. a scan can help point you in the right direction.
Finally, a scan can point you in the right direction
