98 E300 P0400 EGR flow code

It was 17 degrees in my garage. 13 degrees outside. the car started right up. drove fine. Popped a P0400 code EGR flow malfunction. I reset it and all seems well. Is this cold related and or a problem I should be concerned with ?

I think it is cold related. When it gets cold enough, the oil and soot mix might freeze up and not allow it to open like it should. I just got that the other day.
