With multiple pressure-related symptoms / error messages, I'd assume that the transmission is trying to tell you that it's not generating the proper fluid pressure.
If you're lucky, that's because the fluid is suddenly very low, and you will be able to find the (usually obvious) leak and fix it, refill the tranny, and drive away smiling.
If you're not lucky, it's because something mechanical has gone wrong with the tranmission. If you're half-lucky, it's a blockage in the transmission cooler causing low pressure (I'm presuming this is a symptom of that problem - not an Audi tranny expert by any means). If you're really unlucky it's because something has grenaded inside your tranny causing serious mechanical damage that will require a new tranny or at least a major rebuild.
I'm betting there is a story behind this one, with some info on how the car acted / sounded prior to the codes being read...

Do you have any idea what the fluid level in the transmission is? Did this happen all at once, or over time?
At any rate, it doesn't sound too encouraging.
And of course, no one knows the model or year of your car, or which tranny it has (doesn't help much).
