Default 95 A6 Stalls when car stops/idles... But only periodically

It started happening veeeeeeery slow. Maybe once a week it would stall 5-10 seconds after putting it in park.

Last week it was so bad that it would stall before I came to a complete stop at a stop sign.

Today I had an appointment to bring it in, but now it's not happening at all.

I've never done any work on the car myslef, so I dont' really know my way around the engine. Is there an idle screw on Audi's. I'm thinking that maybe I just need to adjust the idle so that it idles a bit higher. Although, it idles at 1000 when it's running properly.

Any suggestions?
