Help! Daughters A4 just crapped out!

[MadMaxGT]

Last night she came home and said that the front end was shaking and that her windsheild washer fluid light was on so I went out and filled it with fluid. I noticed that her tire on the right front was low so I filled it / checked them all. Went out for a test drive to see if it was OK and sure enough that was it. On the way back I got a check engine light and now it will hardly run, no acceleration. No oil pressure light but the gauge barely comes off of the 150 mark. Also the exhaust manifold on the passenger side (with the OX sensor) is glowing red? never saw it like that before and sure way too hot! Where do I start? This car was purchased used and we have not been to a garage yet. Any good Audi repair shops in the northern Virginia area? Thanks! Mark

It is possible the turbo has gone bad on you. There is a o ring for the oil line in the turbo that when it goes, will actually start pumping oil into the turbo and out of the crank case. dont drive it till you check oil level and look for smoke out the back.
if it is not a turbo car, then have the catalytic converter checked. if it is clogged it will cause the glowing manifolds and will throw a CEL(check engine light) The cat can go bad with age, mileage or a lean runnign condition which send un burned gas into the cat and when it does light, it will clog it.
It could be coils going bad.
The best thing to do is have the engine codes read at a shop or at an auto parts store, some do it for free and see whats going on in there
