Power steering failure

Anyone have any ideas why my power steering would fail for nearly a week then suddenly reappear without showing any fault codes or lights. The car is a 2016 q5 2.0tdi and the warranty is very nearly up so I'd like to get it sorted if I can. Thanks in advance

Hi at a rough guess its a bad connection or corroded wires running to the plug that powers the unit, I have to agree with Gareth that jet washes are normally the culprit as they get water in to places it wouldn't usually get in to and under high pressure at that.
