Likely, cold related.  Can check the coolant level, just in case.
Both my VAG, non-Audi products '99 and '00 bugs) lighted up the blinking red
coolant warnings.  The 1.8T wanted a couple oz. of coolant, the 2.0 lacked
nothing.  Temp. was -21 C in the first case and -31 C in the second.
Haven't RTFM yet, too BRRRRRRR! for that.
Both hatch shox suddenly died without a warning but ... after almost 300K
kms ...
