Idles better after car wash

I've had my 04 for a few months. Shes got 124k miles and I've added about 1k. She's idled a bit rough since I got her. Rpms are at about 750.
Today I went through the car wash - typical automatic style where car is in neutral and it pulls u through brushes, water, suds and a dryer.
When I exited, the idle was smooth as silk. Was still at 750 rpms. I had to keep checking to see if car was even running. I loved it, but it only lasted about 10 minutes and gradually became rough again. Obviously the wash did something that wore off.
Any ideas??

Service engine light has been on for months, due to thermostat code P0124. Not related. (Edit: Correct code is P0126)
