Default Strange electrical issues

Hi all, I had a strange electrical surge/short the other day which created a tonne of error codes but they cleared straight away and it hasn't come back.

So, I was driving to Manchester with a friend to pickup a car for him, it's about a 2 hour drive for me it's probably the longest continuous drive I've done in the S8 since I bought it. Car drove flawless the entire way. We got about 30 seconds from our destination and suddenly the car jerked/jumped and all the dash electrics went off. Everything suddenly lit back up and I had a red "Brakes!" warning message that went away as soon as it appeared. I turned the engine off, waited a few seconds and started it again, no warning lights or nothing so we drove down the road to our destination.

Whilst my friend was viewing this other car I used my carista (I have VCDS I just need to buy a new laptop) to scan the codes and it displayed the attached. I cleared the codes and almost everything has disappeared and not come back, the only stuff that has returned are the items I am aware off such as the wiper motor control and tweeter motors.
