The scan came up with no codes? What sort of mileage on the car. When you say 5 miles, do you mean speed of after driving for a little bit it clears up(engine gets warm). It is less likely to be a pump or filter as cold weather seems to have triggered it. Likely a sensor is bad giving false information when cold.
