What Does P7000 Mean?

On cold mornigs, lately, I get a CEL right after I start the car for about 30-60 seconds. After that it won't come back on until the next moring. However, it's not clockwork, it does it maybe 3 times a week.

I ran my can scan and pulled error code P7000. I did a search here and found nothing, any help would be nice. It this something that needs to fixed asap?

I also have gotten P7000, and a few other codes that don't show up anywhere in the service manual or on this site (P4200 I think is another one). I decided not to worry about it.

If you can describe in a little better detail what is going on I may be able to answer that question for you. It could either be a cat warm-up CEL or a AIR pump CEL. Either p.m. me or we can discuss it here.

My 8 had one when my 8 was in the shop. The ABS light. I told the guy take the car to the dealer and get it cleared. It was at the dealer for 2 1/2 days. When I called the dealer they said it was a hard code to clear.
