Upgrading Headlights/Rear tail lights
Issue 1. If the car has halogen headlights and the owner wants to convert to xenon then the car will need a headlight washer system installed to make it road legal. If I'm not mistaken this version of A8 (d3) was made untill 2009 so fitting later headlights and tail lights might be an option. But the later units would be coded to the car as can us was brought in in 2007.

I'd recommend a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up

Really rough idle car has been sat for 3 months
Have you drained the fuel tank and put in fresh fuel? Is it worth getting a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up? Could be an issue with the high pressure fuel pump

Rs3 Brakes sticking
Odd this is happening on a 2025 model car. I'd recommend getting it into Audi asap. Could be a sticking caliper piston. Is it happening on one wheel or multiple? If it's happening when driving you'll know which wheel because when you stop the affected brake will be hotter than the rest.

Abs light
Glad you got the wire sorted. What do those two codes mean? Is there a parasitic drain on the battery for it to go flat? How old is the battery. A failing battery can cause all sorts of electrical gremlins. Is it just me or does the slam panel look dented? Where I've marked in red circle

A3 TDI 1.6 8V - Timing Belt - Preventative Maintenance
If there's no proof of it being done then I'd recommend having it done due to the age of the car.

Looks like a great trip.

Poor mpg
I'd make a note of the codes then clear them. Then see which ones come back. Within a week. I'm assuming you've tested to see if the parking sensors and heat mirrors work? What engine and gearbox has the car got?
-
Abs light
What was the damage? I ask because it could be a faulty abs sensor. Have you had a diagnostic check to see if any fault codes flag up?
