From the description of the fault I would suspect that an electrical transient occurred, these can be really nasty hence 3 blown ECU's. Anything else that was connected at the time could also be damaged but not failing yet, if this was my car I would trade it in or at the very least get some cast iron guarantee from Audi GmbH over and above the warranty on the electrics for several years.

The RS5 is a nice car, I had an extended loan in one before Christmas.

It sounds lovely too, even standard.
