Sounds like a sensor grounding out.

Hello guys... sorry for they very late reply... I have been overwhelmed with work.
Updating on what caused the faults on my car.
The dealer diagnosed the problem and fount a loose speed sensor. Sort of explains the car started acting up after we drove on a piece of rough highway.
They replaced it and the car has been running perfect.
I'm glad it was only that and nothing crazier. So far it has performed excellent. Drove it 800 miles from El Paso TX to Austin just enough to have it broken inn and drove it two days straight at COTA. Very happy camper I must say.

Glad to hear that it was such a "small" issue!

I know this is an old thread, just wanted to say this was a great source of info when it came to diagnosing my own errors codes that I got which were identical to OPs.

my car was also on the highway, then all hell broke loose and car when into limp mode.. warning of possible gearbox fault.. ebrake.. abs etc.. i freaked out and pulled over. After looking through the forums for a couple of nights I landed on this page describing my exact symptoms. I looked around my wheels for cable issues and found a cable was pulled from its housing (new suspension was installed days prior so must have been pulled out by mistake during installation) and caught inbetween the suspension arm and wheel. Tore a hole right into the cable. easy fix and thankfully the pdk is not the culprit.. phew.
