Default CEL warning today, but it went away... ?

Driving today, in Sport mode, shortly after setting off, the car threw a CEL and in the multi-function gauge it said something along the lines of "Engine Control Malfunction, See Service Shop. Driving Permitted". At the same time, the rev-match didn't work and the gear position indicator was inaccurate - when shifting from 3 to 2, it would briefly say 4, and then switch to the correct display of 2. It did the same thing on up-shifts, where 3 would show as 5, and then switch back to the correct 3. In about 3 minutes and 3 kms of driving, the light went out and all functions were restored to normal operation. WTF? Any thoughts on this? Is this a sign of impending electrical issues? The car has about 6800 kms on it (4250 miles). Its a '22 CGTS 6 speed. Thanks for any input!

Seems like a visit to the dealer's service department is the best plan...
